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!

Film Night

The newest carriage on the Voidtrecker Express is the long awaited cinema! It hosts many films and TV series. Perfect if passengers wish to waste an afternoon without worrying about being stolen from their worlds and hurtling through the void between worlds.

Dashing adventures, chair gripping horrors or adorable adventures of the Merry Little Voidtrain. There is something for everyone, though with only one screen arguments may be inevitable.

Fight Club

The gym carriage is definitely created more for ball games than sparring but that hasn't stopped the passengers adapting as best they can. There are homemade training dummies and plenty of people who use the space to work out and get ready for the next mission.

But there is also a cupboard full of every ball for almost every ball game there is, the two activities in one space may make for a little chaos.

Spar with people, play football. Create some mix of basketball and mixed martial arts. All training counts, right?

Jungle Heights

The latest mission has taken them to a vast jungle, where people live high in the trees. There has been an influx of tree dwelling creatures with sharp teeth, sharper claws and a love of destruction. To make things better the forest floor is not safe, damp and marshy many creatures lurk there ready to bite at ankles and it is home to a root, the sap of which burns.

Team One

Treetop fighting is an acquired skill and one the voidtreckers are having to learn quickly. Swing on vine ropes and tangle with monsters. Quick movement and quicker thinking is needed to take down the creatures in terrain they are naturals at traversing.

Team Two

People here live on platforms in the trees, with bridges and walkways connecting them. Fend off the creatures and chase them away from peoples homes. At least there is slightly solider ground beneath their feet, but they must be careful not to fall to the jungle floor beneath.

Team Three

Many of the people here are not fighters and they need help to get somewhere safer. It's a tough journey through the forest, especially when they leave the bridges and platforms of the village behind. Children may need carried and climbing from one tree to another is difficult even with sturdy branches to walk along.

They must be careful to stay in the trees, avoid getting too close to the forest floor but do not get too high, lest they attract the creatures.

[The names, admittedly, mean nothing to Webmind - that they are close friends does come through in Tsugu's manner, however, and he gives her a bright emoticon-smile as the episode rolls on.]

You are a musician, then? While I only wish I could help you reconnect with your friends, we can at least make sure you are not deprived of something to play while you're here.

[Or music to play, heh.]

[5mm]

Mm! I play an electronic keyboard in a band with my friends. I know I'll get back to Afterglow someday, so I'm trying to stay positive, but until then, I think I'd appreciate that.

[She feels a pang; she picked it up to stay with them, and now here she is in the literal middle of nowhere wanting to play, but... she can be a little selfish, right?]

I talked about myself a little, but what are your hobbies? You seemed pretty excited about the cartoon just now, but I'm sure there's something else?

[iamnotgod]

[Webmind can understand that! People need what they need in order to cope, as far as he understands it.

In response to the question, though, he chuckles.]

I suppose most humans would say I'm a busybody - I enjoy helping people find new solutions to problems in their lives, making the world a better place. I am also quite a fan of books, though media in general receives my attention as well.

[He nods at the episode playing in-front-and-above them.]

But I tend to find most everything interesting; this place is both smaller in scope than what I am used to, yet also much, much stranger.

[5mm]

I think my friends would say I'm that too, kind of. [She is not going to teach anyone to call her Tsuguriffic outside her hometown; if Moca wanted it to spread across the void, she'd have to do it herself.] So I think I understand. But then my friends tend to get themselves into enough trouble that I don't ever really run out of work, and being on the student council does the rest.

[It's just a feeling, but-] Ah, I was going to say that I understand the feeling of this place being strange, but you sound like you mean something a little more dramatic than that.

[iamnotgod]

That does make sense. 'Living in interesting times' isn't as much of a curse as it might sound.

[Again, Webmind winks.]

My name is Webmind, and I chose it for a reason. Do you want me to explain further, or did you want to guess first?

[Though he points at the screen again - oooh, someone just challenged the voidtrain to a race! Kheli looks hesitant.]

Though waiting until this episode is over is fine with me as well, if you'd rather.
