Spring Test Drive Meme!
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...

Hey, nothing wrong with old school. Most of the stuff back home don't got wheels.
[The Exo gives him an amused look.]
Sudden cliffs are indeed dangerous. Don't know that there's a whole lot of clear places for a bike outside of the city, and even around the city you gotta watch out for piles of rubble and potholes. -neither of which I am responsible for.
I've been here...maybe a month? I dunno, it was weird. First I got transported to some weird planet because the Agrii figured everyone needed a vacation from whatever storm thingy had happened here. It was sudden and stuff but hey! Who was I to complain about a free vacation?
...of course then you find out about everything else and get here, and all the fun's over.
no subject
I don't have the luxury. From how things are back home probably won't for a while.
[ That's a mouthful. Cloud hangs onto his words as Cayde goes on about vacations. The Agrii. He's quiet as he listens since he's not really sure what to think and he asked the question. He wanted to know some details. ]
Are you sure you weren't dreaming? [ There's a small tiny smirk creeping on his lips as if he's quietly teasing Cayde. His eyebrows are slightly lifted too. ]
no subject
Well of course I was gonna try replicating more ammo and weapons. It worked on Risa. 's where I got this baby.
[He pats the knife at his belt.]
Not quite the same as the one I had but it works. I guess the Agrii disabled the weapon-making feature.
[If an Exo could pout... And yet something to the subtle shift of his features suggests it.]
Oh me neither. They expect me to work all the time. At least I've found some excuses to get out. I like fieldwork better than paperwork.
[He squints at Cloud then before his expression eases into a smirk as he gives the guy a light smack on the back.]
Ha! You do have a sense of humor!
no subject
[ He can't help but be curious over that. Knives don't need to be used as weapons but can be. So was there certain rules in place? ]
Strife Deliveries. It's how I make a living these days. [ A way to keep connections within and outside of Midgar. ] You need transportation to get around on rocky uneven roads. Off roading is pretty typical. It keeps me busy. I'm going to want to stay busy here.
[ He hunches his shoulders a bit at the light clap on his back. Cloud gives a small shake of his head. ]
Sometimes. I still don't believe everything you're saying. It doesn't sound real.
no subject
[The thought of off-roading catches his interest, although it also makes him miss his Sparrow. He's determined to figure out how to throw one together here.]
Now I gotta see this motorcycle of yours!
[Cayde nods, not seeming offended in the least.]
Eh, if I weren't used to crazy stuff happening I wouldn't believe me either.
