[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.

[ Gwen's used to Geralt's gruffness, so when he expresses disdain and irritation at the clothing, she hardly blinks. Instead, the spider child has wedged herself in a corner of the dressing car, digging through the shoes to find a pair. She's already picked her outfit, and she's sure she looks stupid. ]

This is all so we can fit in wherever we're going.

[ She's almost sure none of the disguises actually work. ]

Which, unfortunately, means the people we're going to try to help really like their weird clothing choices.

[willnotchoose]

Which is their prerogative but I don't see how it becomes my problem.

[ It's not as if he isn't going to stick out anyway, it just seems like an exercise in futility. ]

We'll still help no matter how we're dressed.

[hibana_incursa]

Fair point. It's one thing to look like the locals, but we all have our habits that just scream 'not from here' that show up eventually. Me? I sometimes web the bad guys to trees and stick to walls.

[ Which people on the train learn about anyway. ]

We also have a guy with a flaming skull for a head. Really not sure how we're supposed to hide that, but whatever.

[ A pause. ]

And we have a talking book who is kind of a dick. That absolutely screams 'nothing to see here'.

[ Sarcasm is a teenagers best weapon against bullshit. ]

[willnotchoose]

...A talking book.

[ ...what? That doesn't even sound real, even for all the weird shit he's dealt with already. ]

[hibana_incursa]

Yep.

[ Just trust the kid, Geralt. ]


I dunno what part of the multiverse he's from, but I hope to avoid it.

[willnotchoose]

As would I. Books can be dangerous enough when they don't speak on their own.

[hibana_incursa]

Spells and such?

There are a few magic users on board. They'd know more about that than me.

[willnotchoose]

Spells. Knowledge.

[ He shrugs. ]

Nothing I know firsthand, but countries have gone to war for less.

[ A beat, then: ]

You have sorcerers here.
