( MEMES ) TEST DRIVE >> 6

THE TEST DRIVE




Like it or not, you've been dragged from your world into 
the sanctum. It's a pretty nice city, all things considered--sci-fi, high-tech, glamourous.... Except, of course, for the giant dome encircling it, and the threat of glitching, contaminated zombies at your door. Looks like humanity's built itself a fortress that looks suspiciously like a cage, too. Toss in the odd memory blanks and the everpresent logo of Bifrons incorporated and it's enough to make someone paranoid.

The object of this meme is to get people familiar with the world of the Sanctum, and to try to see if their characters would fit in a sci-fi utopia such as this. Here are your options:

1. Intro: Waking Up. Make your intro post, folks. You wake up in a strange place, and get a strange transmission to go with it. There's a pair of glasses connected to some sort of communications network, but otherwise not much else in the room with you. What are you going to do? 

2. Environmental Glitching. You know the story of Noah? No? Now you're living it.  Sealed portions of the districts are overfilling with water, flooding streets, fields, and select city blocks. Do you climb up to get to safety, shut off the water, or find a way to break down the barrier to the next sector over? 

3. Genetic Altering. What it says on the tin. Except...it's not quite gone right, has it? Are you supposed to spit acid when you hiccup?  Are your insides acid resistant? No? Oh dear.  Warped experiments gone wrong, your augmentation has twisted around on you for horrific or hilarious results.

4. Memory Glitch. No one knows your face. You don't exist on the network. In fact...you're not all that certain you are who you think you are anyway. Haven't you always lived here?  

5. Military Training. Everyone's got to start somewhere. You're training the green folks, maybe you're one of the newcomers yourself. Maybe you haven't even touched a gun before in your life. Either way, you'd better start now.

6. Outside the Dome You're out and about without an armed escort, suited up against the atmosphere and dysthropes.  It's supposed to be a green sector in this run down shell of what used to be a suburb, right? Nothing could possibly go wrong

7. Wildcard. Choose your own adventure or create a cocktail from the presented options! The choice is YOURS.

"Assault is attacking. I don't care about me. But they're already panicked. You trying to show them the American dream of pushing ahead and every man for himself will make it worse." She's not buying into any sheepishness for a minute. The man knows exactly the image he's conveying, both good and bad, with no regrets. Ringer reads every level of it and immediately dislikes him for having the nerve to create so many layers so immediately. This is so not the time.

He's clearly eager to be moving on already and she can't exactly blame him, the sounds of the water never too far away. With a begrudging nod, she turns and approaches the bottom of the stairs. Ringer steps aside and gestures to allow him to go first. Clearly he has no desire to wait. "We'll be fine once we get to the roof. This connects to another building that extends even farther up and has been reported to have less flooding so far. All I'm trying to do is get people there without anyone getting killed or severely injured."
