[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!

Crisis On… A Ship!

The train has a game carriage and the VR video games are always popular. A good way to relive boredom as well as teaching some good skills.

Crisis on...This game can be played with two to four players. It is essentially a crisis simulator mixed with an escape room. You can chose the scenario (the bridge of a space ship, a camp in a jungle, a high rise building, a sailing ship etc) and you are thrown into the middle of a crisis of some kind. Teamwork and a cool head are important as is using the surroundings wisely.

Ahoy there! You and your small crew are on board a sailing ship in the middle of an ocean. But you are being chased by an enemy ship and there’s a storm brewing! There are many roles for you to chose from and different puzzles and problems to be solved. Batten down the hatches, flee the enemy ships and if necessary man the canons! Bring yourselves and your crew to harbour safely.

Dressing up

The upcoming mission is one in space and the void treckers have been told to blend in. The dressing room has been opened and what awaits them looks like it walked out of a old science fiction film. Shoulder pads, metalic colours. Everything over the top, ridiculous and not practical at all.

Yet the mission brief said to fit in. So swallow your pride and try and find outfits that aren’t too ridiculous. Or go all out and make the most of it, it’s not every day you can wear elaborate outfits after all.

Space Battle

As perhaps the outfits had suggested this world is an odd one, the outfits given to the voidtreckers make them some of the most subtle dressed people in the space city. Big, bold and loud. But the crisis is clear, an enemy force attacking this city filled with non combatants and children.

Team One

Space fighting time! The space ships are designed for two so voidtreckers will need a partner. There’s not much time to train so it will be mostly learning on the job, but it’s fine. The voidtreckers job is mostly to make up numbers, to split the enemy’s focus whilst those that know how to pilot go in to defeat the enemy.

Team Two

The problem with space battles is, there are a lot of injuries and a lot of damaged space ships. The space city is not one that has a large military so damaged ships need to be fixed as quickly as possible.

Help out the engineers. It might be the voidtreckers know a little about repairing ships themselves but even if they don’t, extra pairs of hands are always useful.

Team Three

This city is loud, bustling and full of life. But with the battle raging outside everyone needs to stay safe. Help people get to shelters. Clear the streets and begin the evacuation, though hopefully a full evacuation won’t be needed.

Space Disco

Enemies vanquished, this city does what it apparantly does best. That is, party. The music is way too loud, different songs out of each building, people dance in the streets, lights flash far too fast. There is strange street food to try, new dances to learn and a victory to celebrate.

"I bet. What a joy! Must be a beautiful thing to watch the audience's reaction to all those lovely jokes of yours."

This could go on for some time at this rate. Reno was either having fun or trying to gauge the stupidity level (or play act of one) of the alien. Or, more likely than not, a bit of both.

[faceturnrevolution]

"Almost as fun as distracting bullies so they stop bothering people. Truly one of life's greatest pleasures."

He held his hand up to his mouth in surprise, "Oh, that probably sounded like I was calling you a bully. Totally unintentional, I promise."

[theturksway]

"No harm, no foul." The Turk said in almost a sing-song fashion, his grin stretching disturbingly wide. Didn't look like it hurt, just looked sinister. Not that his audience could see it... but maybe it was apparent in his tone as he continued. "Call it like you see it. I'm not ashamed of it. It's worked out well for me so far. You see, it's easy to bully others when it's your job to put people in their place."

The emphasis ended up on the word 'place' at the end while Reno gave a rough pat on Jaika's shoulder then shoved him away. Reno scratched the back of his head and looked about as sheepish as a cat that knows it did something wrong but was immensely pleased with itself anyway. Then he laughed a bit.

"See what I mean?"

[faceturnrevolution]

He actually stumbled slightly from the unexpected shove, being too distracted from trying to figure out if an honest bully was better than a dishonest one. Jedi are hard to keep off balance, though, and he caught himself after only a step. "Yes, I think I do."

Jaika reached into the clothes rack and grabbed something at random to hand to Reno. He was trusting to the Force to make it be something suitably stupid looking. "Better get dressed. We've all got to go incognito, after all."

[theturksway]

Well, it wouldn't have mattered too much what Jaika picked out because it all looked so distasteful Reno couldn't not scowl at the piece of clothing held out to him. Reluctantly, however, the Turk snatched the suit out of the Jedi's hand and held it up to peer disgustedly at it. Jaika had an unfortunate point.

The orders weren't from Shinra though and Reno contemplated not following through with the whole incognito part of their mission. He thought this whole 'save-the-day' gig was a crockload anyway.

"This is bullshit."

He scowled again, clearly considering throwing the clothing on the floor and walking off but just not quite there yet.
