[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.

That was news to Reno. He stared at her for a moment then stared at the food for a moment longer. He turned back to her. "How the hell did you know how to cook any of this stuff? It doesn't even look right!"

He didn't say it didn't look good. Some of it had strange smells that were actually kinda tempting. Most of it was weird looking but had a nice gleam. And some of the other train passengers had already eaten some of it and seemed fine so far...

But seriously, how had she figured it out? Just relied on one of the locals to tell her what to do? Eh. Guess that was probably a good thing.

His bafflement is amusing to Evie, so her smile is more of a faint smirk. Just for a moment. It's gone, replaced by her usual softer smile and she picks up one of the strange looking pastries, turning it some to to get a look at the bird-like shape of it before pointing out one of the residents of the planet they were on.

"The chefs here were kind enough to teach me how this is done, and since I've been cooking since I could stand, picking up the lessons was surprisingly easy."

She hands over the pastry she'd been holding.

"It's a dessert. Tastes vaguely of chocolate and berries, with the slightest spicy kick to it."

[theturksway]

It was a little weird shaped but he supposed he'd seen strangely shaped things in bakeries before. If it were one of the nicer places in Midgar. Now that she pointed out the pastries he could kind of see it. The rest of it still looked weird though.

If what she was saying was correct hopefully it was just the aesthetics of the food that was weird though. What she described sounded good.

He took the pastry in hand and gave it another look before taking a bite.

"...What else is good around here?" he said as he eyed the rest of the food. He could get away with the pastries if he wanted. That was...actually not half bad. But some meat sounded good, too. A real victory feast before dessert!
