Test Drive Meme 013

[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!

Training Gym

Fight club have finally gotten a gym to train in. Train carriages make strange gyms, long narrow spaces. But this has mats, balance beams, climbing apparatus. Pads and training dummies for punching. It also has large blocks that look a little like what you might find in a children's play centre but can be used to make obstacle courses or provide cover in training exercises.

Set up a course, practice fighting or try and learn how to throw a punch! There are plenty who will help, people who take training super seriously and let's face it, people who want to ambush others from behind oversized foam blocks.

Games

For those for whom fighting is not an idea of fun, or those wanting more relaxation, the games carriage has a whole collection of different games. Board games, card games, dice games. There are many games about trains but they aren't the only type.

There are low tables in the carriage to set a game up on and plenty of beanbags and cushions to sit on. Grab a game, grab a friend or a complete stranger and get playing!

Water Maze

The latest mission has taken the voidtreckers to an underwater maze. They have been given wet suits, helmets and breathing apparatus- lightweight boxes that strap to their back, connect to their helmet and filter air from the water. A powerful and dangerous artifact has been stolen and the race is on to get it back before it is used for ill.

Team One

Plenty of monsters and foes have been sent to try and retrieve the item. Giant crabs, strange eels. Even people with fish tails and the ability to breathe underwater. All are dangerous foes and fighting underwater is difficult.

But team one are the vanguard, keeping the monster levels low to allow team two to push on through the maze.

Team Two

Hopefully team one will deal with the monsters, but the odd one might sneak through. Team two's main job is to solve the maze, because the thief is in the centre in order to perform his ritual.

It's a race against time, the maze is made of coral and walls of seaweed that are impossible to cut through. Solving it requires a quick mind and some determined swimming.

Team Three

For those not wishing to brave the water, or those whose skills lie more in helping others. The island where the artefact was stolen from needs help. The temple was ransacked and some of the islanders were injured. Help them fix their homes, put the temple back to rights, tend to the injured.

Cleaning the temple is a big job, but hopefully by the time the artefact has been retrieved it will be able to be restored to it's rightful place.

"It may be that I am not from your world. The reason why you have not heard of my kind." Maebhrin could not blame him for that, after all. "It is called Aebrynis. From what I understand, it is more than a bit of a backwater..."

But she shrugged then. It's clear by his face and his movements that he's just unused to talking to people, and Mae can't find offense in that. She tries, but she could be just as awkward--especially when he mentions that he's not human. Her brows fly up. "You certainly look human--if you are not, then what are you?" Blurting that out as if she had no brain to mouth filter at all. As if her mother had never attempted once to teach her diplomacy.

At least then she remembers that her mother did try that, and coughs a little, cheeks going pink. "Ahm. My name is Maebhrin Tillinath, may I have your name?"

'Backwater' is a new word to him, but he will file that one away for later to ask or look up or something. Maybe it just means far away? If she's from a whole different world, then that would certainly be quite a distance...

Okay. He's getting off-track. Questions will be answered in order of simplicity of the answer, easiest first. Kind of...trying to match her level of politeness-- "My name's Mirele. Mirele Weston," he starts, pretty good, and then veers off-course while trying to formulate an answer to the other question. "But you don't need to use my surname, just Mirele is fine, unless there's someone else with my name here. And, I used to be human, so you're not wrong about that, but...if you are from a different world, it's probably-- it's probably such a long story, and...I don't really know what you'd call me. I don't know what I'd call me. I'm not really a person, and I'm not really a god, which is what I'm-- supposed to be, so maybe I'm just...me?"

A few of the tiles escape the open Bananagrams pouch in his hands, and he realizes that he's been absently fiddling with it, nervously. "Sorry."
