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...

Supposedly they cannot survive on the planet, or the storms. apparently. While I cannot verify the truth of this.

And from what I've heard, they were fans of a 'reality television' show where another race kidnapped people for entertainment purposes. Some of those people are here now.

Wait.
Wait.

We're here because of a reality television show?

That is my understanding, but you'd have to ask someone from the Fleet.

Bloody hell...
Okay so. How have we been able to help them?
What changes have people here been able to make to aid them in their plight?

So far as I can tell, there hasn't been progress yet. The goal is to stop the storms. That hasn't happened. But so far we've been stabilizing for our residence. Houses, food, semblances of normalcy. Someone's even set up a library. And there's a blacksmith too.

I see. So-
How long have most people been here for little progress?
What do the storms do?

I'm not sure. I haven't asked for details on that. The storms impair electronics, can cause people to see things that aren't there, and for those of us with powers, well... They are fully suppressed during the storms. Yet somehow there are things that stand, like the greenhouse.

That's...strange?
What kind of information has anyone found about the storms? Anything at all?

Maybe I'll start there if there isn't much.

Just that they blow in. If there is more, perhaps our library invested people have written it down.

But yes, not much to my knowledge.

I'll talk to Jon, see what I can do to help.

Thank you, by the way. I uh realize that I never introduced myself.
My name is Martin Blackwood.

[Reeve freezes at the name.]

You've met Jon already?

[Definitely caught up in that fact.]

He took me to the data-point.
He's my boss from where we're from.

Ah, then you're very familiar with him. I'm glad he shall have a friend here.

He’s a good friend. I’m glad I can be here for him as well.

He is a friend as well. Or so I would hope. He can be hard to read. Usually.

He can be difficult to read. I mean, I thought he hated me at first. I was wrong. I wouldn’t worry too much about that. He may not show it but he does care.

I've seen himself as a very caring man.

That’s good! Glad he hasn’t been a recluse and can count on people.

I'm not sure how many people there are in his corner. But I am there.

[To his own detriment. But he's there.]
