[voidtreckermods]

Welcome to the Test Drive Meme! Here is the place to see how your character might fit the setting, grab samples and have fun!

1. Post with your character, including their name and series in the subject. We’ve written out some prompts but feel free to make up your own, you have a whole train to play with!

2. Assume they've been around long enough for threads to jump right into the action.

3. Have lots of fun.

Happy testing!

Crisis On... An Aeroplane

The train has a game carriage and the VR video games are always popular. A good way to relive boredom as well as teaching some good skills.

Crisis on...This game can be played with two to four players. It is essentially a crisis simulator mixed with an escape room. You can chose the scenario (the bridge of a space ship, a camp in a jungle, a high rise building, a sailing ship etc) and you are thrown into the middle of a crisis of some kind. Teamwork and a cool head are important as is using the surroundings wisely.

Here you are the crew of a small aeroplane in desperate trouble and attempting to land, the wind is strong, your engines are straining and the visibility is near zero. Can your crew land safely?

Dressing up

The Voidtreckers have a new mission and the dressing carriage is open for their convenience...

The mission is taking them to a circus and the clothes sure reflect that. Clown costumes, glittery leotards, many feathers and an overabundance of sequins.

There is make up and facepaint provided as well, hopefully there are enough voidtreckers with expertise to make it look convincing.

Clowning Around

Strange happenings have been happening in Kilpi, a monster ridden land and joining a performing troupe is the best bet of protection outside of the small settlements. The voidtreckers are masquerading as one such troupe, in order to help out a small settlement that has seen a spate of killings. Voidtreckers must put on the show of their lives, investigate the killings and bring peace back to the town.

Team One

Setting up the stage for the performance is a good time for building bonds with the towns people. Everyone knows something, no matter how small and they are more likely to gossip with stage hands than talk to the town guard.

Gather information, set up a stage and get ready for the show.

Team Two

The killings always happen in the evening or at night, always when people are alone. So making sure people are not alone is the task of team two. The show is ready, it is big, it is loud and hopefully enough to draw in the whole town.

Eat fire, juggle, walk that tightrope. Music plays, sequins glitter. The show is a distraction and their task is to be the best distraction they can be.

Team Three

Whilst team two are distracting it is team threes chance to catch the killer. The streets are deserted, quiet and stealth is necessary to remain undetected.

Most people are at the show, but not everyone. Are they in danger? Or are they potential suspects.

"..."

Shinjiro went in, going straight for the correct cabinet. At least Ken's instincts were correct - apparently the home for these was high above his head, he would've needed to climb up to reach them indeed. He got out several small containers.

"We can portion 'em out, that way it's gonna be easier for someone to just grab 'n go," Shinjiro explained. "More steps involved, th' more likely someone's gonna skip it for a less healthy option."

[miseris_socios]

He just stared at Shinjiro, visibly seething for a moment, before climbing down and grabbing the containers. He pried them open and started spooning some out into the containers.

"I don't see why you care." His tone was flat, and he was so tempted to go for his Evoker... no. Not here. Not now. "It's not like you care about anyone..."

[mortal_son]

It's common knowledge that people appeared to be yanked around from different time periods. So it's hard to say when Ken was from. Did he already attempt to kill him? Did he resent him for saving his life? Or, was he still angry and vengeful, bent on a path of self-destruction?

Either way, his bitter words caused what little expression Shinjiro wore to vanish, his eyes growing shadowed as he turned his face away.

Gruffly, he claimed, "People complainin 'bout shit's annoying. Don't read into it."

[miseris_socios]

"oYou weren't supposed to - ugh." He can agree on that point, at least. "You're right on that point. Since I live in the 'attic' I have to hear Jin's complaining on the computer for like an hour before he passes out."

[mortal_son]

That stopped Shinjiro mid-motion, about to spoon some soup into the containers.

"What." His voice was flat and disbelieving. Surely - he asked Aki to take care of him, he - "What th' hell are you doin rattlin round Jin's attic?"

[miseris_socios]

"... The hell do you mean?" He glanced over towards Shinjiro. "I sure as hell don't live in SEES's attic. There's no way I'd work with the Kirijo Group. You know they covered up what you did, right?"
