Test Drive Meme 024

[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… A fairground

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.

How hard can running a fairground me? Well very hard when so much has gone wrong. Is it sabotage? Is it bad luck? Shoddy engineering? No mater what it is the important thing is rides are breaking, people are in danger, there’s temperature fluctuations in the fun house and the banshee in the ghost house won’t stop screaming. This is perhaps one of the more light hearted scenario’s in Crisis On but brings it’s own level of stress. Good luck keeping everyone safe and pacifying those angry guests.

Jam Session

Downstairs in the music carriage there are a variety of instruments. Mostly smaller instruments (a guitar is the largest instrument there). There are a couple of each type. There is however an entire box of recorders, another box of panpipes and a box of mixed small percussion instruments (symbols, shakers etc). There are music stands small stools to sit on are stacked along the wall. There are folders of various sheet music as well as some ‘learn to play’ books.

When there is only one practice room well then it is the perfect time to learn to play together. No matter the skill level, instrument or music preference. Playing music together is a good team bonding activity after all.

Or perhaps everyone is just playing their own thing, descending into chaos.

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.

Comments

[calmness]

Another? I see.... [xichen watches wangji with brows still knit and then nods, not sure he believes it wholly still. even if another version of himself also said it was so.

it's hard to believe that someone else could do someone worse than what wei wuxian had done; that someone would stoop so low. he cannot think of who, perhaps someone they'd thought dead all along? he wonders if a-yao would have his theories if he asked.

but that man is not here, his brother is. xichen focuses on that instead, on the still overwhelming relief that he is alright.] Perhaps at a later time? [he will not press now, not when there's already so much to learn and understand.]

[weisexual]

[He nods slowly. He doesn't know if he should ever tell his brother the whole truth of what happened. He knows how it would effect him. Saw it with his own eyes as everything played out. This brother is less damaged and for that he is thankful. But he knows that lies are forbidden and secrets are little more then lies not told. Eventually the truth will have to come out.]

A little at a time.

[That might be the best way to do it. So that it isn't so overwhelming to take in all at once. Just the revelation of the time difference between them was a lot.]

I also do not have all the answers.

[There are some that are better equipped to explain why they did the things they did, how they were done, and their motivations.]

[calmness]

Thank you, Wangji. [because the thought of his brother lying to him is one that unsettles him, though he will not force truths from his mouth right now.

he glances down and then back up at his brother, offering a small smile.] Perhaps some things we will figure out together? Here and in the future?

[weisexual]

[There is a small smile that pulls at the corner of his lips, not one to smile as freely as his brother does but he can't help that being able to sit with him like this does make him feel at ease. Happy to see him again even if he is younger.]

Yes...together.

[After a pause...]

I am glad you are here xiongzhang.

[calmness]

[it is a comforting smile to see, nonetheless. xichen is grateful for it, when it's been so long since he's seen it.

he squashes that thought away, focuses on the present.] I am glad to have you here with me as well.
