Test Drive Meme 002

[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!

Luggage Handling

The last carriage of the train is full of luggage. It’s all empty but there sure is a lot of it. Suitcases, old fashioned travelling trunks, rucksacks. And they are scattered everywhere, a safety concern to be sure.

Or perhaps the most fun place on the train, if you are thinking about it right. These cases could be anything, a fort, a bunker. How many can you stack up until they are too high to reach or they tumble down on top of you?

Let out your inner child and relieve some of the boredom of being stuck on a train by creating the luggage castle of your dreams, or step in before disaster strikes and attempt to bring some organisation to this chaos.

Scavenger Hunt

You’ve found yourself on a world that seems to be one huge scrap yard. At least all the parts you can see are and you aren’t the only ones there. A small fighter craft has crash landed here and the pilot needs help fixing their craft to get out of here!

Team One The parts needed must be around here somewhere! This place has all sorts and so it’s just a matter of trying to sort through all the junk to find what you are looking for.

Team Two Some parts from the actual ship are salvageable but it’s going to take a team to get this thing sky worthy again. Fix what can be fixed and get the craft ready for the spare parts that will hopefully be found.

Team Three This planet is not without its nuisances. Most prominent are some strange cyborg rats that have a taste for wiring. Fend them off before they get into the craft and render all the hard work undone.

A picnic with a view

Heroes deserve rewards every now and again and after a few days of protecting a settlement from strange shape shifting alien blobs there is a moment to relax before boarding the train once more.

What a place to relax in. High up on a cliff overlooking a vast plain of crystal stalagmites. The light of two suns reflects of them creating a dazzling prism mirror effect of colour, it’s almost like hovering above a sea of rainbows.

A picnic has been provided by some grateful villagers, the food is strange but delicious and a perfect way to unwind after a stressful few days.

Hunt

Looking through the rubble for parts wasn't his idea of a good time. But Hendrik could be a right pest himself if he wasn't kept busy. This man wasn't too sure of what the word relax meant because he'd much rather be off doing things. And with the opportunity to be able to get off of the train and do said things, the knight 'ran' with it so to speak.

His focus had been bent on the task at hand, and he felt fortunate that he had gloves. A part caught his eye and just as hed pocketed his find, Hendrik heard someone calling.

Turning around towards the sound, he caught what was said and stood his ground, raising his greatsword. But what surprised him was seeing this blue-haired person..spinning towards a rat as if it were harmful.

And so the greatsword slowly lowered as the chakram went to work.

To be fair, if all of Peryn's accomplishments were put on a resume, 'taking care of unwanted creatures' would take up a good half of it, most likely. She's not quite quick enough to pin the creature down, but certainly enough to startle it, and another few blows behind it ensure that it's scurrying away from the wreck they're fixing, not towards. She'll chalk it up to a victory.

That done, she turns to Hendrik.

"Apologies," she says cheerfully, a little out of breath, "They can be quite the pests, if our new friends are to be believed."

[unswervingcompanion]

Well, she's definitely cheerful after a battle, the knight would most certainly give her that. With a sigh, he shakes his head.

"You have nothing to apologize for. Assisting in vermin removal will no doubt help those that are unable to accomplish such a task."

Hendrik wasn't sure what to believe at this point, but helping others was part and parcel of his knightly charge. And that charge was a knight's word is his bond, his kingdom his master. He serves the weak untiringly, challenges the strong unflinchingly and never retreats in the face of adversity.

And as he saw it, this was simply an extension of that.

[skysinging]

"I do suppose that was part of the idea," she admits.

Well, she says it like she's admitting something, but truthfully it's kind of a foregone conclusion for her. She's just not going to snark about it or anything yet. She's also rather pleased that he hasn't made any comments on her stature, so that helps. Apparently Lalafell (or dwarves even) aren't so common a thing outside the Source and its reflections?

"You haven't spotted any others, have you?" Or needed help of his own, this is usually when people would do such things.

[unswervingcompanion]

As far as he sees it, they're pretty much all in this together. So helping each other out and helping others was never going to be a bad thing.

"The ones that I have spotted have been disposed of." The knight personally didn't see a problem with them but he knew all too well that they could harm a child or an adult that hadn't had years of training with a sword or some other weapon.

And he's too polite to comment on height. After all, not everyone is 6'4" and well built as he is.
