Summer Test Drive! (Calibrations edition!)


THE SUMMER TEST DRIVE MEME
(Or Winter Test Drive for you Southern Hemisphere folks!)


Got someone you want to try out before you app? Well this is the post for it! Feel free to use anything that fits in the setting of Drift Fleet! Want to play bumper shuttles? Want to go wild in a med bay? Play around with the current plot? Have at it!

Threads from the Test-Drive may be made game "canon" but DO NOT count toward AC!

FOR NEW PLAYERS: You DO NOT NEED an invite to participate in the TEST DRIVE! If you decide to APP into the game, ONLY THEN will you need an invite from a current player!

SPECIAL NOTE!
Since June is a special month in which we'll be breaking from the usual plot to bring back the calibrations plot, the Test Drive prompts will come in two flavors!

OPTION A: Standard Test Drive
Go ahead and treat the test drive as you normally would, using past plots or fleet locations as your setting! Here's some helpful info for some ideas.

  • April/May's Star System
  • March's Star System
  • Game Details
  • SS Iskaulit

    OPTION B: Build-a-Calibration
    If you'd like, you can use the info given about the Calibrations plot to design your own calibration room for any characters you want! Got a character you want to explore their inner psyche but isn't in the game yet? Go ahead and try it out! It can be a fully fleshed out room, or simply just a small part of it you'd like to play with.

    Alternatively for any characters that are in the game, you can use this as a chance to either iron out, brainstorm, or test run any components of your calibration before the actual plot starts! We don't recommend posting the entirety of your calibration in this meme (as you'll have nothing new to post come plot time), but this can be a good chance to test out any parts to make sure they work how you desire.

    Test drives are posted SEASONALLY, so the next one will be in September!

    [ Nothing here is anything like the world Aerith knows or the Planet she had fought so hard to protect and care for, but a part of her thinks that might be a good thing. Midgar hadn't been the most wonderful place and her knowledge of things, far wider than it had been when she was younger, is enough to let her know that perhaps this place could be good. It could be better - people not sick, not fighting for their lives - but there was hope for her if worlds like this could exist, planets flourishing without the threat of extinction.

    It's a morbid thought, she supposes, but it's not as if she has to tell anyone. ]


    Mm, no, not really. I spent most of my time looking after flowers, actually. [ But it doesn't seem like there's much room for gardeners in space, and it's not exactly something that correlates well to space ships. The other parts of her life... Also probably not enough to give her transferable skills.

    If only Cid was here. He'd be so happy. ]


    If I knew anything about space maybe they'd have let me keep it.
