Test Drive!


Test Drive




This is a test drive for The Last Resort. You can use one of the handy prompts or make up your own.

Prompts



Prompt #1

Your character is sent as part of a team to explore Subterranean Library #12. There are hostiles hiding in the dark that have to be safely bypassed without creating explosions and without getting shot. There are books that can be brought to the museum (or sold). What happens if two people with different intentions collide?

Prompt #2

So your character is out in the desert. It might be for a dig, a nice walk, doing something they shouldn't. Who knows? But unfortunately one of the worst invasive species is about to rear its head: a young sandworm.

This isn't something that happens often to people, and even this young it's going to take more than a normal gun as permitted on the planet, or the limited abilities that people currently possess. Most of what you would do would just slow it down.

This is one of these cases where it's better to run; you want to get to security or to a guide and report this, and you want to get out of the range of those teeth as fast as you can.

Prompt #3

You've been given a chance to tell the entire universe about your reasons for coming to the village and town as a part of a documentary in progress. Alternately, you have done so and are being confronted by your first fan in front of a friend. They've read all your fanfiction,, they ship you with some other import (maybe your friend, maybe someone else, maybe they actually hate your friend), and they printed out a picture of you that they want to have signed.

Prompt #4

Choose your own adventure (first network or log posts can later be used as game canon once related apps are approved).



Please help tag out if you're currently in the game and help introduce people to the game. If you have definitive preferences in play style, please mention it in your posts.

[The crunching sound sure as hell gets Elle's attention. She doesn't intend to give it more than a short glance, but she ends up double-taking. Seriously? Well. Uh, alright. No time to protest or argue or anything else like that.

Elle makes sure the researchers are in the truck before she finally scrambles into the back.]
Go go go go! [She'll stay facing out the back, because the damn thing is gonna follow them, she just knows it.]

[He doesn't need to be told twice. He sets it in drive again and roars forward, accelerating the heavy vehicle as fast as it can manage.

Fortunately, this barren desert doesn't have much that he can risk running into. It makes steering easy.]
quixotically: (game ♧ kill cam)

[Yyyyep. Elle called it. She fires off a couple of shots, but it's going partially underground to chase them.]

Please tell me this thing can go faster than this, [she calls over her shoulder.]
truth_is_the_enemy: (wtf?)

If you wanted fast you should have brought a Jaguar, not this floating lorry.

[Still, he gives it more power, trying to eek about a bit more speed.]
quixotically: (game ♧ you will listen.)

[Elle doesn't know what a Jaguar or a lorry is, but she's not exactly in the mood or position to ask.

Another couple of shots and the shotgun's empty.]
Reloading, [ends up being her only answer, and she feeds shotshells in as fast as she can.]
