Train Questionnaire

[runs_on_batteries]

Thanks for participating but to protect my sanity, no more questionnaires will be accepted.

Welcome to the Voidtrecker. This is, for better or worse, a new world for all of us and we’re stuck here. In order to detect patterns in these abductions, get important safety information, and other important details for living in this community I’m conducting a survey. Please answer everything to the best of your ability. If you have any questions about the form please consult whoever is standing next to you other than me, because you should be intelligent enough to answer these very straight forward questions.

All information presented here will be kept strictly confidential and the purpose is to collect data.
Please fill it out and deliver it to me, Tony Stark. You'll most likely find me in my lab (aka, the quiet room that has a lock, a 'keep out' sign, and glass painted).

[ooc: Just fyi, Tony *will* comment on something about your answers when you hand in your answers IC. I've checked with the mod and these can count toward bonus threads, etc. Also, it's very common that people lie on these forms. Fill them out as your character would IC please.]

*** Update *** I've recruited a few more people to help with these so you all can get a response faster and spare my sanity. If you have a preference between Tony, Feanor, Ignis, and Gladio. This group might be referenced to as the Welcome Committee before too long.

Comments

[mynameisallen]

Chronology:


What’s your name? Allen Walker
What species are you? Human
What’s your birthday/ years you’ve been alive? I don't have an 'offical' birthday, but I count December 25th as my birthday as it's a special day for me. As for years, 17. That is counting my time in the places I was in.
How many years is the average lifespan of your particular species? 100... I don't actually know.
Year you’re from: End of the 19th century (OOC: They don't give an exact date beyond that)
How many months in your world’s calendar?
How many days in the months? 30 or 31 but one month has 28 or 29
How many hours? Minutes? Seconds? 24, 60, 60
What was happening when you were taken from your time and woke up on the train platform? I was camping in Windgate. I was curious about the place.
What were some of the recent big events that have occurred before you woke?
There was a train...Except unlike this one it kicked people off each day. I was unfortunate to get kicked off the 2nd day.
If you had not been taken at that point in time, would you still be alive?
Pretty sure I would be. Not sure how camping would kill me.


Technology:


What is the most advanced technological device in your world? Golems, I guess...I don't pay that much attention to the tech they had in the Order beyond those.
Is this train something new or are there trains like this in your world? There are trains pretty much in nearly all the places I have been to. trains seem like a common theme.
Do you have trains, but not ones that go through the Void? Had trains, but not trains like that.
What is a common piece of technology you use regularly? Uh... I guess communication devices now I think about it. We had some interesting ones in all my travels.


Magic:


Does your world use magic? Do you use magic? Is your magic based on a device/ talisman/ lineage/ race? Magic, no.


Inventory:


What items were in your rucksack upon waking? Specifically, did anything come with you from your home world? If so, what was it? Timcampy! He's was my master's golem, but he has belonged to me for a while. He helps me to not get lost.


Medical


Do you have any medical conditions or issues that are being treated by a doctor? No. Not at all.
Do you have any known allergies or special dietary needs? Does having to eat a lot count as a special dietary need? By a lot, I mean more than a normal man is capable of.


Companions


Is there anyone from your world here? Were they here before/ after you got here or arrived at the same time? No, and I'm kind of relieved at that. I do have Timcampy though, but he arrived with me.


Skills


What special skills do you have, particularly fighting or military skills? Uh... how do I explain this in a way that makes sense? I'll go with this: My left arm is a weapon, or at least transforms into one, either a claw or a sword. I also have had around five years of training under my Master to do my job of being an exorcist.

I also can see in the dark pretty well due to reasons...
Are there any chores on the list you'd be willing to do if someone else finds their assigned chores particularly disdainful? Or can you be bribed to do both? I am someone who is always willing to help. So I guess I would within reason.


Question for subsequent months


Did anyone from your universe turn up at the train station this time? If so, who?
No and again, I am still very glad about this.

Why is December 25 special to you? Does your world have Christmas?

[mynameisallen]

It was the day Mana took me in and adopted me. So it might not be the day I was born since I don't remember that, but it's the day I started a new life.

[A beat, then he remembers the other question.]

Oh! And yes, we do.

[runs_on_batteries]

Ah, yes then that would be an excellent reason the day would be special.

[He glances back at the questionnaire.]

What's a golem?

[mynameisallen]

[He nodded slightly, he was at least admitting stuff that wasn't important to that question. After all, having to explain the fact that the same day Mana confused him for a dog and he just went with it out of guilt is something else. But at least he can answer the golem question.]

Usually, golems from home were methods to help communicate with the Order. However Timcampy the golem I have is different in that he is able to record and store video and audio, which is not unlike things like phones, right? [This is probably why he is glad that he knows about this stuff because of the last world.]

He can also grow and shrink, can survive pretty much anything. You could break him apart and he'd be good as new within hours and if he somehow ever manages to get separated from me will be able to track me down since I'm his current owner or master.

[He prefers friend honestly.]
