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...

"It is not. I am not the hospital's guard hound. Though I might get territorial should you make off with any supplies without telling me."

There was no bite or anger to his words- it was what it was. And there was also no aggression in his body language, nor anger, nor anything truly negative besides perhaps just a little bit of wariness at meeting a stranger in the halls of the hospital at this hour.

"I do work here as a healer. And as a healer, I believe it to be my duty to ensure I have what I need to treat patients when they come in. Wouldn't you agree then, that it is wise for me to keep an eye on all who might wander in whose intentions I do not know?"

[sidearmed]

"I suppose it is." Although this guy is the weirdest looking healer he's ever seen. He thinks. Some part of his gut suggests that's a right assumption, but recent events have brutally shown him just how much thin ice his previous assumptions have been resting on. But, anyway, onto the important bit. Blue Guy claims to be a healer. Healer, not doctor, although they are, technically, more or less the same. He's got a problem with the second term, though. So brownie points, Altair.

"Are all supplies stocked here, or are some distributed around?" If nothing else, he can get a little intel.

[kallig]

"Medical supplies are stocked here, given out when necessary. There is also the greenhouse, should your interest be purely medicinal. There are herbs and the like there, though I imagine you'd need the knowledge to process them into something useful."

Still, if he was snooping around and asking these questions, it meant that this man was a new addition to their little community. Altair wasn't sure if the man seemed skittish or what, but he kept his distance for now, body language relaxed, to get across that he meant no harm.

He could, should the need arise. But at 4'8" and underweight, he didn't exactly need to do much to appear as less than a threat than he was, either.

Altair was much more interested in keeping the peace, of course.

"Is there anything you need? Are you sick, or injured, perhaps?"

[sidearmed]

The soldier tilts his head a couple of times during the spiel, facial expression indicating focus like he's mentally filing away locations for later perusal. Skittish isn't quite the body language, although there is plenty of caution in the way his legs are braced - a casual stance for anyone who hasn't spent any time in a military setting. This guy is ready to move at a moment's notice.

"No." And nothing else, like that is the entirety of what he means to say. But then, a few moments later. "What constitutes an emergency?" IE, when are supplies given out?

[kallig]

Not sick or injured. Used to being alone, perhaps. Used to having to scavenge for supplies? It was difficult to know what it was, exactly.

"If our situation takes a turn for the more dangerous, I'd consider that an emergency. We are after all here to play heroes- plenty of risk in that. If someone is sick or injured, I'd give out supplies from the hospital as well- not everyone wants to come in, after all."

Their supplies weren't exactly plentiful, and Altair did what he could in the hospital, to make sure they had what they needed should things take a turn for the worse. There was much in the hospital he still needed to catalog as well, plenty that still needed doing, even if he'd tidied, cleaned, cataloged and repaired much already.

"If you'd like some medical supplies to take along should you be adverse to being treated by someone else..."

Well, Altair was reasonably sure he put together something of a first-aid kit. He was a healer who wasn't supposed to be a healer, that was true. Sith were weapons more than anything else. But Altair was filling the role and ready to tend to anyone on Agra 10 who got hurt- ready to help, as well.
