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...

Calvin grins and wiggles fingers at her. But he nods.

"They have, and there are... nodes? Digital download centers where you can get knowledge. I am guessing there is a medical one, somewhere."

"Huh I haven't found any of those yet, what do they look like?"

Everything here is still very new to her and as yet she's avoided coming into contact with anything too alien. She knows from experience that touching without knowing what a thing does can be a very bad idea.

I don't really know.

[ Calvin grinned at her. ]

I haven't actually encountered one, so, I'm not sure what they look like, but hopefully, they're easy to spot to both, you know, avoid, and choose. According to what people said, each one has a different set of skills. So, if I'm going to gain skills from it, I'd rather know ahead of time what I was going to do, and make sure it's not a trap somehow...

Yeah that seems sensible to me.

[Gemini nods, not wanting to take any risks with any alien tech herself. At least the medical knowledge contained in them has done it's work well, that's good to know, even though medical services aren't something she personally has to worry about.]

Are you going to be in here much longer? For someone who's been impaled you look like you're making a pretty good recovery.

A week or so, I think. I'm already stronger. Between a healer and someone who found some healing stuff to pour in my wounds, I'm healing a lot faster than normal.

[ And he is so glad of it. He is going crazy laying here. ]

Do you need anything? Room service? A mail order catalogue?

[The twinkle in her eyes makes it clear she's joking, but after a moment she adds more seriously.]

If there's anything available here you want I'll get it for you.

[ he laughs and grins at her, then shakes his head. ]

Just come by sometimes? This place is not bad, but it is boring!
