[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.

"It didn't sound louder than other clothing," she said, confused. But she looked up at it. The color bothered her, she wasn't sure why. But the thought that she could be lost within it made it tempting, if she had to wear anything other than her jacket.

But she was also still confused about how clothing could be loud if it wasn't rustling or festooned with metal.

[blitzcheer]

Huh. She doesn't think so? His expression turns curious, and he tilts his head to himself, a sort of half-shrug.

"You wanna try it on?" Not that he'll stop her. ...or maybe they should actually be looking for something that seems more her size, which brings him to suggest, waving a hand, "Why don't you have a look yourself? You know what you like."

Better than the guy who just met her. He'll stick the silvery cape at the end of the rack he's in front of either way, should she actually want to do anything with it.

[nobodys_puppet]

"Why can't I just keep wearing this?" she asked. "Why does everyone always have to change clothing all the time outside? Axel tried to explain it but then his face started to become the same color as his hair and I just got confused," she admitted. "Isn't this the uniform for us on this train?" she asked, since she and Axel had been dressed the same again... wasn't it what they were supposed to wear all the time?

[blitzcheer]

"Yeah, but then this is so we blend in," Tidus replies, gesturing to the racks. But with that said: "Unless you don't mind everyone staring at you for being dressed weird, you can stay like that. Who's gonna stop you? The train?"

Or whoever was behind the train, but were they so bored to take notice of people leaving in their usual clothes? One or two odd people out couldn't hurt, anyway. Didn't hurt him back in Spira.

...not that his sports outfit was that out of place amongst the other blitzers.

[nobodys_puppet]

"We could just stay in the shadows and not be seen at all...." Couldn't they? That was how she was used to working. "Why would anyone see me anyway?" Weren't they just there to fight monsters or do recon or something? She wasn't used to missions that meant she had to talk to people on the world they're visiting.

[blitzcheer]

"'Cause wherever we're going has people?" The mission briefing wasn't that clear, but he gathered that much, and the fact that...well, all these clothes were prepared for them in the first place.

"I know about as much as you do, but the way I see it, either you stand out by wearing whatever you want and don't care what everyone thinks, or you wear the same as everyone, and hide away that way! So? You can't count on shadows being around."

So what was she gonna pick?

[nobodys_puppet]

"Every world has shadows," she replied, her voice so haunted for one so young. She hunched her shoulders in tightly. She just wanted to go in, do her mission, and come back so the train wouldn't destroy her. Why did she have to deal with people on top of that?

[blitzcheer]

He stands there for a moment, brow tilted into a puzzled look--before he eventually just shrugs, returning his attention back to the racks. Offering amicably, if with a light scoff, "Hope there's plenty where we're going!"

For her sake. He could provide some encouragement or help where he saw it, but he wasn't going to drag her into doing anything, and not when it came to picking out a wardrobe. What was life or death about that? Didn't seem worth it.

As for himself, Tidus plucks out something moderately tame (in regards to what's there to pick), letting it hang off his arm while he checks to see there isn't anything better to go for.

"What's this place where you're from like? Daitto?"

[nobodys_puppet]

"Daitu is where we were last." What was there to say? "They had an eagull problem and always wanted to do experiments on us." She had no clue how distorted an impression she was giving. "They put us into rooms where we slept a lot of us in the same room. But we couldn't choose who slept in which room, but sometimes Roxas would sneak in anyway or I'd sneak into his. But it was best when he came to ours so we could all be together."
