Test Drive Meme 009

[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!

Dining Car

Situated above the kitchen the dining car has a large wooden table stretching the length of the carriage. Two long wooden benches run either side of it. At meal times it is inevitably crowded, chaotic and noisy without a doubt.

Try not to jostle your fellow diners as you navigate inter-universe table manners. Or is waiting better? Eating before or after everyone else so that you can eat in relative peace an entire table length from the next nearest person.

Or are you the rebel who starts a food fight?

Chores

Chores are part of life on board the Voidtrecker Express. Each team is assigned a task each month: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms, cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas, laundry and cooking.

Obviously the only thing enforcing these chores in a passengers own conscience and their fellow travellers.

Are you diligent or do you shirk? Do you try swapping your tasks with someone else? Or just outright bribing someone to do your work for you? Work together to get the task done or try and persuade a lazy team member to pull their weight.

Snow Way!

In a small village a copy-cat of the supervillain Professor Chill has struck! She has no weather machine but holds the same ability to control snow- and seems to be using natural winter to attack the village.

Team One

The village is being attacked by snowmen and ice golems. Magically animated ice creatures that attack with sticks and claws. Protect the village by fighting off the snow creatures!

Team Two

Many of the village have tried to escape through a mountain pass. Go and help them evacuate. Fend off monsters, carry children or luggage. Help the villagers through the snowdrifts.

Team Three

Our villain seems as fond of puns as her predecessor and finding her is made either easier or harder by the trail of clues left by her. Clues consist of puns, ice riddles and snow facts. Solve the clues and track her down to bring her to justice.

Snowball fight!

Of course once the monsters and villain have been defeated there is some time to have fun in the snow. If anyone can stand the sight of it any more. Snowballs, snow angels and snowmen (the non animated kind) are yours for the making.

Have fun!

"I don't know. What's an Ellimist?"

[al_fangor]

< If you do not know, then you are not one. How has a human come to have magic, though. I was certain that humans, like Andalites, dwell in the realm of science." >

[les_magique]

"Well I'm glad you asked that." looks like the chores aren't getting done any time soon.

"According to the church, Istavan, lord of law and order and arcane magic, blessed his chosen followers with the gift of sorcery, allowing them to instinctively wield the power that exists in all living things for their own ends and elevating them over the common man. Official teaching is that sorcerers rule out society because they have the divine blessing of the god of magic himself. I, however, have developed a method by which ANYONE can manipulate the forces of magic, with enough practice and study."

She said a brief stream of nonsense syllables and made some weird gestures with her hands (one of which was made of metal, he might note.) , only to vanish from sight entirely. It wasn't until a moment later when she stepped to the side and thus disrupted the invisibility spell that she returned to view. "Wizard comes from an old word meaning wise, because wizards have to actually use their brains to cast spells while sorcerers can do it on pure instinct! It's going to revolutionize the WORLD!"

< I suspect that you are perhaps from a very different Earth than the one that I know. > Had someone gotten a hold of the Time Matrix and caused this? Was Loren alright? Could there be more than one Earth? Had they accidentally created a new Earth rather than returning Loren't hers? Was that what the Ellmist had meant?

Sorry, someone might be a little concerned and agitated, though his mental voice had been even and calm.

"If only these ellimists can use magic where you came from then it must be so. They must be like sorcerers."

Samata pictured blue centaurs wearing embroidered frock coats and powdered wigs, strutting about while common andalites got out of the way for fear of being set on fire by the ellimist's brain.

[al_fangor]

< We thought them creatures of legend. I know them to be real. The one with whim I spoke took human guise. >

[les_magique]

"Oh. I had something totally different in mind..."

A crucial difference between Ellimists and wizards is, unfortunately, that wizards still need to do chores sometimes. Samata started sweeping up, giving that tail some space. It looked sharp.

"So what kind of place do you come from, then?"

[al_fangor]

It was sharp.

< At which point in my life? > It was a complicated question, for him.
