[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 is a little ridiculous how expressive young xiao xingchen actually is, xue yang has known him for years and though xingchen schools his face to be as impassive as possible, there are little tells that give him away: the way his eyes go slightly wide, his lips pressed in a fine line, how his fingers twitch.

he is frustrated and still he gives out a huff that could be masking a laugh of utter disbelief at xue yang's words. ]

It's a start, not a good one.

[xue_yang]

What the hell do you want me to do?

[There is fire in his eyes as Xue Yang finally can't hold back any more. He might be shorter but that doesn't matter to him as he goes right up to Xingchen.]

I can't change what I did. And do I regret it? No. I never will. That's just how it is. I can lie and say that I do, but I don't lie. And I would think that lying would be even worse.

[shuanghuas]

[ xiao xingchen's eyes go wide, and though he is the taller of the two he feels himself taking an involuntary step back, frustration mountain.

honestly, to hear someone have no regrets for the innocents they murdered... xiao xingchen is angry at xue yang but he's also angry at himself. ] I want you to do better, I want - I want to save you!

[ without the events of baixue, xiao xingchen still wanted to save the world in its entirely. if he had thought xue yang utterly irredeemable, he would not have allowed judgement to be passed. evil is evil and must be slayed but he had not wanted to slay xue yang then.

he had trusted chifeng-zun to deal an appropriate punishment. ]

[xue_yang]

[Xue Yang takes a step back almost like he has been slapped. Xingchen wants to save him..That pulls on a heart string that almost brings him back to what he felt after Yi City. Xingchen had saved him..all those years prior. He just didn't know it until it was too late.

But the loss broke any last piece of humanity that Xue Yang had left.]

It might be too late for me to be saved.

[shuanghuas]

Then, if you cannot be saved I will stop you from committing evil.

[ black and white, but maybe between the two with their complicated history, it was best to have an answer like this. a simple statement that promised nothing and condemned no one.

to stop xue yang didn't mean killing him, after all. ]

[xue_yang]

How will you do that? Stay by my side at all times?

[There might be a slight twinge of hope in that. That is exactly what they had before after all.]

[shuanghuas]

If I must, yes. [ and this was not going to be fun for either one of them... ]

[xue_yang]

Then I guess you will be seeing a lot of me. You better prepare yourself.

[There is a small smirk on his lips.]

[shuanghuas]

[ he does not like that smirk. at all.

xiao xingchen tries to look stern. ] It's not meant to be fun for either of us.

[xue_yang]

Our definitions of fun are likely very different.

[The smirk doesn't seem to be going anywhere though.]

Spend too much time with me and you might start to enjoy it.

[shuanghuas]

If you behave yourself we might both not hate it. [that is as much as he can say on the topic because he does not see himself as ever enjoying his time with xue yang.


ever.

(ah, if only he knew..) ]

[xue_yang]

I think you will be quite surprised by how well I can behave.

[He's not stupid. It's not like he spends all day fighting, causing mischief and driving people crazy. Some people even like his presence.]

[shuanghuas]

[ yeah he's just giving xue yang A Look because... he spent two weeks chasing you you little shit, he knows you're a pain in the ass. ]

I'm waiting to be surprised then.

[xue_yang]

[He's not denying that at all. just that he can be a good little shit when he wants to be. He laughs as he once again heads for the door. At least in a slightly better moood then a few minutes before.]
