Name: The Tachyon Express
Gender: Various
Species: Inner-City Express Rail
Color: Oh dear oh dear I shall be late
Biography: "Central says there's been an accident down the line. We-"
"FEAR NOT, CITIZEN! FOR DR. PHYSICS IS AT HAND!"
"'Ey, who're y-"
"LATE, YOU SAY?! WELL, FEAR NOT!"
"You already said that."
"WITH MY PATENT PENDING 'TACHYTRON', WE WILL BE ABLE TO TAKE THIS TRAIN BACK IN SPACE AND TIME, SUCH THAT WE SHALL NOT BE LATE!"
"Oh, is that all? That's not such a bad proposal, then."
"I WILL ALSO REQUIRE YOUR SOULS TO POWER THE MACHINE!"
"Wait, what-"
Description: The Tachyon Express is a three-car high-speed commuter train, its outside surface a shiny burnished aluminium (all the paint has long since been stripped away in long, curling gashes). It sports a heavily modified pilot car that glows an alarming green through the windows, and to which the supervillanous Dr. Physics has the only key.
The original passengers who were there that day have mostly either escaped or perished to the Tachytron, though some stay on in the hope that Dr. Physics will make good on his promise and deliver them to their destination on time.
The Tachyon Express has, as can be gathered, not yet done this.
As a result of its... unique propulsion system, the inside of the Express actually occupies several probable timelines around its actual location in time and space. This means that wherever it goes, all sorts of interesting things come spilling out of it from alternate probabilities.
One particular point of interest is that the Tachyon Express can never stop. If it does, according to Dr. Physics, THE ESTIMATED TIME TO ARRIVAL WILL INCREASE TO INFINITY AND THEN WE'RE REALLY BUGGERED THEN, ALSO WE MIGHT ALL CEASE TO EXIST. SO I GUESS WE'LL REALLY BE LATE THEN! HA! HAHAHA! HA!
Items/Abilities: As the Tachyon Express chugs along, it churns and tears apart possible timelines in its wake. This leads to a lot of bleed-through from other continua, which in turn leads to silly things happening around it. In addition, its captain, Dr. Physics, is a madman inventor with superhuman inventing capabilities, including the ability to use human souls as a power source.
In addition to all that, the Express also has a powerful (soul-powered) force shield and track layer in the front car, ensuring that mere matter cannot stop the PATH OF PROGRESS! AHAHAHAHA! HAHAHA! HA! HAHAHA!
