Test Drive Meme 007

[voidtreckermods]

Welcome to our Test Drive Meme! Here is the place to see how your character might fit the setting, grab some samples and start having fun!

1. Post with your character. I’ve written out some prompts but feel free to make up your own, you have a whole train to play with!

2. Assume they have been around long enough for threads to jump right into the action!

3. Have much fun!

Happy testing!

Void Trecking

The thing about being on a train hurtling through void space is there’s not much to see. Outside the window lies an endless void of kaleidoscope colours shifting and swirling. It’s probably best not to stare at it too long. Do so and you might start to imagine order in it. Shapes, places, even figures. But your eyes shift... Back to chaos. Probably best you do something else other than stare out the window. Or convince your fellow passengers that void watching leads to headaches!

Board Games

The game carriage is full of games. Every board game imaginable from silly party games to serious strategy games that last for hours. There are a disproportionate amount of games about trains.

Grab some friends, grab a game and some beanbags and get playing! Dive into a world of deck building or play a silly card game. A great way to alleviate boredom.

Happy Holidays

You have arrived in a place which might remind you of Victoria London if Victoria London had floating palaces and was ruled by wizards.

Their rule is strict and any kind of Winter celebration is banned. You have been called by a group of rebels to help with an underground celebration.

Team One

Distraction. Be out in the city, keep watch. If the guards get anywhere near the secret entrances distract them. Perhaps by being a lost tourist. Perhaps by causing mayhem. Make sure the organisers and party goers can arrive without a hitch.

Team Two

A party is not complete without food. The party is being held underground and there isn't much in the way of kitchens and do help bake in people's houses and smuggle the food across the city. Careful of guards.

Team Three

The venue needs decorating and the presents need wrapped. It might be an underground bunker but everyone is determined to make it the best festival ever, despite the risks. Help make it happen!

Party

Of course after all that hard work there is time to celebrate before you must board the train once more.

Eat drink and be merry!

"Maybe some of those big hanging ornaments? Bows or wreaths would work, too." Bran looked over the room, making mental notes. Not that he didn't remember where all the bare spots were, but he wanted to make sure he'd have good suggestions. So that two bows or two wreaths weren't too close together, or whether a bow or wreath looked better in that particular spot, or a bell ornament or a ball ornament. Stuff like that.

He might not be big on winter holidays, but he wasn't ignorant of them.

"You might want to let me handle the ladder though. Just saying." Mostly because it'd be a lot more unwieldy for her than it would be for him. Bran didn't doubt for a moment that if Clara had to drag the thing around, she'd do it. It was just easier for him, so why not?

[ekho]

"Those might be good too. Add a little sparkle to the room," she glanced around the room now that the garland was fixed. Then proceeded to climb back down the ladder. Idly Clara wondered if the people here know about the mistletoe tradition. One never knew about alternate realities and what they might take part in. As it is, she had yet to hear anyone call it Christmas and it was merely the winter celebrations.

Once Clara has both feet on the ground again, she eyed her decorating cohort with interest.

"I suppose I can allow that just so long as you don't go all Three Stooges on me." She gave him a grin. While she had no problem letting him carry the ladder around, Clara might lend a hand if it started to swing dangerously.

"Promise I'll keep the 'woob-woob-woob!' to the barest of minimums," Bran said. This really wasn't the place--even if the others might be amused by slapstick, that wasn't his type of comedy, either.

Besides, it was a holiday, right? If it wasn't enjoyable to show the locals some good old-fashioned humor, so be it.

Luckily Bran had had at least a bit of experience in construction, so he kept the ladder well in hand. Or under arm as the case went, stabilizing it with his free hand.

"Okay, so where do we go next, then? You're the one with the decorating expertise." He just had a good eye, or two.

[ekho]

"Maybe there's someone here who will happily put on a show with you," she laughed lightly. If it was a planned show, Clara would be all for seeing it happen.

All she wanted was to make sure he didn't hit someone with the ladder on accident and for that individual to end up seriously hurt. That would put a damper on the winter celebrations.

While Clara is keeping an eye on the ladder, it looked like her decorating cohort had it under control. For all she knew, he was a handyman who regularly worked with tools and potentially dangerous objects.

She pointed to a bare spot. "There. It's screaming that it needs a nice shiny bobble."

[justbecawsican]

"Maybe, but if they've got a guitar somewhere, I might be putting on an entirely different show. I'm better at music." Even if Bran could be a cut-up, when he tried.

Luckily he wasn't a fighter, and although said ladder might be a great improvised weapon, it did not need to be one. Unless, of course, the disrespectful opposition showed up. Which Bran hoped was not going to happen.

He wasn't a handyman, but hey, Bran did a lot of moonlighting--he'd definitely carried a ladder in his time. He unfolded the ladder where directed, and positioned himself in a good bracing position, before gesturing up at the empty spot.

"Have at. Should be good to go!"
