Spring Test Drive Meme!

[trpmods]

Welcome to the Current Test Drive for The Revival Project!

This game is a spin-off from the closed The Drift Fleet game. For more information about the game, including more details on the setting, please check out the FAQ here or the premise here.

A thread on the TDM will be required for all applications. Please view the FAQ for information about how this works. Any questions about the game please direct to the comment section of the FAQ as well.

If you are a Drift Fleet alumni bringing your character from the game, please label your character as 'DFAU' on your top level. Also, keep in mind you have complete flexibility on how your character comes here. They could be taken before endgame, after endgame, two years after, one year before, etc. It's up to you! If you want to completely restart your character, they're not considered DFAU anymore and won't need the label.

So go! Explore Agra 10! And, as always, HAVE FUN!

Thread ideas:

- Explore the city! There's a map here and a bit more description of some of the buildings here. Most of the buildings are run down and have clearly been abandoned for years; fortunately, the water treatment center appears to be working, but power is intermittent and unreliable. The hotel seems to be the most crowded, but you might want into what appears to be an abandoned storefront and find someone else scavenging or even sleeping.

- There are spaceships! That's right, there are currently several small spaceships grounded in the hangar. They appear to have power, but only one ship will let you enter. (For test drive purposes, the ship that will let you enter is up to you, so just pick whichever name appeals, and go for it!) The other ships won't open for you, but it might be worth poking around the one that will...

- Do you hear a storm? A giant, power-altering storm has been ravaging part of the planet for a month. It shows ghosts of people you know and those you don't. It drains you of any super-human abilities and tries its best to keep you from getting to its origin. Are you going to try anyways? Or are you going to chase the whispers of people from your past? More information can be found  here.

- Can you hear me now? Upon arrival, your character will have on their person a small, handheld communications device. Maybe they know exactly how to use a computer, smartphone, or tablet, and immediately blast out a text or video trying to figure out what's going on. Or maybe they're not so tech-savvy after all, and everyone is about to get a lovely shot right up your character's left nostril.

- Wildcard! You're welcome to use any previous test drive scenarios or previous game events as a basis for a thread/situation, or simply make up your own! Keep in mind that you're currently stranded on a planet with only basic necessities, but there is enough food and fresh water. Creature comforts, however, seem to be distinctly lacking...

He'd never spoken to Ren quite this much. And yet, he was finding himself rather... Underwhelmed. He sounded much like any acolyte on Korriban- boasting to sound impressive. Of course, he kept his thoughts to himself, the only indication that he was unimpressed being a slight arch of a brow.

"My, don't we have a high opinion of ourselves?" He asked, "Do you think Sith go making rivals of others the instant they see them?"

He'd had rivals. Once. Not so much any more.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but Sith didn't go making every Force-sensitive they saw into rivals the moment they met them. We're capable of playing nice. I may not like you, but for the moment, I see no reason to attack you."

For the moment, that was. That could change very quickly.

Ren exhales sharply and rolls his eyes. He has little interest in playing nice when there's things about both his physical location and condition he doesn't understand. The wound he'd taken from Rey should have killed him but there'd been a connection there - however tenuous - and he hadn't faded into the Force.

It's a puzzle. This place, too, is a puzzle and he doesn't know how or why he's come to be here. The Chiss before him seems to think he's not a very good Sith and Ren thinks the same in reverse.

"Have you never heard of the Rule of Two? There's only two Sith at one time because they're prone to killing one another."

[kallig]

"That rule must have come to be after my time. In my time, there's thousands of Sith. Thousands of Jedi, too. And thousands who are neither."

He supposed, technically speaking, he had stopped being merely Sith some time ago. He wasn't bound to only the Dark side of the Force, and knew very well that the Force was more than Dark or Light. It was the single thing he could agree with Valkorion on. Of course, getting into that was something he'd rather not do with Ren.

Seemed like it'd fly right over his head, anyway.

"The Sith I know are perfectly capable of being civil."

So long as it served a purpose. It was why, at home, he was in such a perfect position to bring about some positive change. Of course he wouldn't say that, either.
