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...

[ honestly. ]
Which puts us in a shitty situation. There's a pretty good chance once Namor is done with Pietro he's going to bump us off - Pietro's not even in line for the throne anymore.
no subject
[Tommy grins. He KNEW Pietro wasn’t straight.]
Word choice, man. For all you know they screwed on the peace treaties. Still, shocked. Namor May be working with mutants some back home but this is a bit much. He is totally going to double cross Pietro.
[WAit, what? Not that strong?]
Nah. I bet he is that strong. But you live a cushy life. He ain’t had a reason to use the really powerful shit so there is like, self doubt or something. It’s all about belief and will. He doesn’t believe it yet. So you just keep B close, maybe bring some big building down on Pietro with an explosion, and he’ll manage. He always does. Our bro is fucking reliable.

[ but at that, Tommy shrugs. ]
And, yeah, probably. His self esteem blows and he's usually a strong wind away from an anxiety attack. He's got the power to be strong but he always screws himself over in the last minute. [ he sounds fond. But worried. And then more worried as he realizes that there's a solid chance his brother isn't here, and that he left him in what is to be a warzone all alone. ] ... He better not be back there by himself.
no subject
[Wow, Tommy, check your own tangents. But he is almost sad to hear it. That even a Billy raised with Wanda as a prince is gonna have self-esteem shit. He didn’t want that for his brother.]
From what I get of this place and how it works, that shouldn’t be a problem. I mean, yeah, he might be back there and by himself, but the world sorta... waits for us? Like our Teddy? From a bit in the future of us. And I’m from three days in the future of where my Billy is from. But that didn’t mean I didn’t get fucking texts from him back home when he’s technically here.
I think... when we go home we go home to when wer’e from. So he’ll be okay.
[Strange, that he’s sorta comforting himself. But come on, who better to? He knows exactly what’s eating at him. The fear that Billy can’t do for himself. That Tommy’s going to let him down when all he wants to do is protect Billy. At least... at least That Billy would accept Tommy protecting him. This Tommy is trying to get used to the whole idea that maybe his brother wants him around.]
