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...

What was different between the other stuff and the knife when you were replicating them?

[ 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.

They weren't all weapons? I replicated a bowl of ramen. I got a few bullets but I'm already down several rounds. That was when we were on vacation planet. I guess the Agrii don't like weapons, but I don't know for sure how many people here actually came with any. They seem kind of picky with what gets brought along.

[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.
