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!

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.

I'm pretty sure she'll eat anything that isn't marked with a price. And as often as I treat her at the cafe, sometimes even then. Especially if it's bread.

[Tsugu pauses, looking thoughtful.]

I could try? I haven't been here that long so I never really thought about it. And there are still enough strange things in the storehouse car that I'd feel weird claiming to be an expert.

[But you taught Sayo with even less experience, her traitorous mind supplies. Her face heats at that thought, but at the same time, the thoughtful expression deepens.] But... maybe?

[alongtailtalltale]

Huh. I never met someone whose favorite food was bread.

[Tangle grins.]

Who said you need to be an expert to teach something? I taught myself to fight, and I'm the farthest thing from an expert there is!

[5mm]

Melon bread, chocolate cornets, I could probably just give her a loaf of French bread and it'd keep her quiet for a minute or two.

Well... [This does not seem like sound logic. But...] Maybe I'll try it. I'll have to get some extra ingredients together, though - I don't want to waste things we need to feed everyone in case we have problems.

[alongtailtalltale]

This girl definitely sounds like she likes bread, alright.

And oh yeah, totally. You know what they say, waste not, want not.

[5mm]

"Waste not" is kind of on me being a good teacher, but that's the general idea. And I need to do some more practice myself so I don't reach for an ingredient I think I recognize and end up blowing up the kitchen car.

[She blinks, mentally rolling back up in the conversation a bit.] Taught yourself to fight? Do you come from a dangerous place?

[alongtailtalltale]

Well, if you realize it now, you should be fine. Or at least, you're on the road to it being fine.

[Tangle blinks.]

Oh yeah, there's like. Not even a break before some egg-shaped guy tries to conquer the world with robots, or his robot hedgehog son tries to do it in his name, or a octopus assassin creeps out of nowhere to cause trouble.

... Why? Do you need someone to teach you how to throw a punch?

[5mm]

[...did she get dumped into one of Moca's manga without realizing it?]

I guess real life is stranger than fiction. You've got a lot on your plate, huh? I wouldn't know the first thing about dealing with any of that. But... maybe? I don't think this is going to be a trip that I can just get through by offering my enemies cinnamon rolls.

[alongtailtalltale]

[Tangle shrugs.]

Well, last I checked, things were peaceful at the time. But you're right. You're going to at least need to be able to defend yourself.
