Test Drive Meme 001

[voidtreckermods]

Welcome to our first 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!

Void Trecking

The thing about being on a train hurtling through void space is there’s not much to see. Outside the window lies an endless void of kaleidoscope colours shifting and swirling. It’s probably best not to stare at it too long. Do so and you might start to imagine order in it. Shapes, places, even figures. But your eyes shift... Back to chaos. Probably best you do something else other than stare out the window. Or convince your fellow passengers that void watching leads to headaches!

Sport Balls

Were you the unlucky person to first open the cupboard? Or were you sensible and let someone else deal with the avalanche of balls first? Either way there are now many many balls for every ball game you can imagine? Play one? Make up a new one? Wonder why there is a gymnasium on a train at all?

Aubergine Adventures

In the store rooms among the general ingredients for the month there seem to be an overabundance of aubergines. Why? Who knows. Perhaps the world where they last restocked had many to give, perhaps they’ve just been overlooked and now nearing the time where the stores need restocked these are the only things left.

What can you do with an aubergine? Can you make a tasty meal for everyone on this train? Or do you cook just for yourself?

A Whole New World

New worlds aren’t all about missions, sometimes there is time to explore, take in the sights, immerse yourself in local culture.

For example this huge covered market. Filled with people from across the stars, sales pitches called out, all translated by your Safety Control Apparatus.

A woman with three extra cyber arms is trying to convince you of the newest technology. “Just plugs right into the ports in your forehead, any information you need downloaded instantly. Never be stuck for an answer again!”

Or what about this stall selling strange gelatinous cubes in every colour you could ever imagine? Get haggling, avoid being dragged into strange stalls by over zealous trades people. Or actually try and get the lay of the land for the forthcoming mission.

Mission Time

You’ve arrived on a world with purple sheep. Everything else about it seems almost like earth, if that’s where you are from. But the sheep are definitely purple and these specific ones have escaped their pen and scattered across the fields.

To make it worse there are wolves about. The farmer has asked for your help!

Team One is to fend off the wolves, the farmer has some axes lying around but your best bet is to scare them off with burning torches.

Team Two is to play sheep-dog. Round up the sheep and lead them back to safety.

Team Three is to repair the pen, or this is going to happen all over again!

Pick a team, go wild!

[She meets his eyes, daring him to call her a liar. She's not too sure what she will do if he does, but she can see three possible escape routes even if one includes darting under the table and that's a bit risky.

But then he... Offers to buy her a jello cube? Defiance turns instantly into suspicion. Why would he do that? Just because he believes this Kra'gar works hard?][She's at least got the understanding to know she probably shouldn't blurt out about being from a different world. Even though this place is so strange they might not bat an eyelid.]

[hashtagparkerluck]

Whoa. Cool it with the eyes daggers, man-I'm not gonna let a little girl go hungry.

[ he pulls out a bit of money and holds it out to Kra'Gar, realizing he has no idea how currency works in this world with the weird purple sheep. ]

So, Jello cube? Kra'gar mentioned something about having a mint flavored one? That's the one I'd go far but I kinda have an allergy so it's probably strawberry for me-wait.

[ He turns back to the merchant. ]

You have strawberry, right?

[knifewithnoname]

You do be having an allergy for mint? [Mint could kill people? Good to know. She looked at the merchant as well who seemed happy enough if Peter had coin and pointed out some strawberry cubes.]

You will be buying me one?

[Her attention is back on Peter, she sounds suspicious.]

[hashtagparkerluck]

Yeah, a pretty bad one.

[ The mint won't kill him parse but it'll certain cause a lot of suffering he'd rather not go through and also make him really sick. ]

And sure, why not? Like I said, I'm not about to let a little girl go hungry.

[ He takes one of the strawberry jello cubes. ]

So, pick whichever one you want.
