Key Features:Exterior: Sleek, metallic, spaceship-like design with smooth curves. Interior: A blend of futuristic sci-fi tech and other interior design as decided by each Time Wrangler pair e.g. one pair’s ship might have a mid-century modern feel, whereas another might be an art deco, or boho style. This is up to players of each time ship Time travel tech is fused with high-level AI and temporal navigation.
If you would like to note features of your Wrangler Pair's specific time ship, for reference when used for combined missions/for Interns and Preservationists, that can be done hereAI: Highly intelligent shipboard artificial intelligence that pilots the ship (except in emergency circumstances), navigates, runs diagnostics, and answers questions. Each AI has its own name, voice and personality — this is up to the players of wranglers to decide for their own ships. Jump Ship: Small detachable shuttle used for covert missions or travel into areas time ship can’t land. Temporal Cloaking: Can hide in time as well as space, making it nearly undetectable, and has an invisible forcefield that prevents non-agents from getting too close. Self-Repairing Systems: Can recover from damage over time. However, so that ships are always ready to go, Innovators will do the majority of repairs. This self-repair is for when the ships are away from base. Med Bay: Sterile room with three healing pods. Agents should use them to decontaminate themselves from local pathogens and diseases before returning to base. Lie in the pod to be scanned and healed by nanobots. Injuries requiring invasive surgery, or that would be fatal without this technology will require the agent to be put under, while nanobots enter their bodies to begin repairs. The nanobots are guided and controlled by the ship's AI. Serious injuries that would require a limb replacement or organ transplant will require the agent to be transported back to base to regrow/clone/time-clone a part from their previous selves, however the pod is able to suspend them in time until this happens. Temporal Navigation Room: Central command area with a holographic timeline display & comms back to base. This is also where manual piloting is done from during emergencies. Living Quarters: Bunks, kitchen, and leisure area.
Optional Tech These gadgets are available for agents to pick up pre-mission, however agents often choose different items depending on what they are most comfortable with and/or what works best with the time period they are visiting. Interns and Preservationists are only able to take one of these gadgets per mission, because of too many incidents of setting them off in the wrong circumstances.Temporal Echo Patch - a thin, translucent adhesive patch that agents stick behind the ear before leaving for missions. It creates a miniature version of the Base-Wide Temporal Linguistic Field, allowing agents to understand and communicate across languages in real time — even ancient, obscure, or future languages. It affects a 5-foot personal bubble, meaning anything said (or written) directly to or near the agent gets translated. One patch lasts up to 48 hours before needing a recharge or replacement. This patch does not help with agent accents or era appropriate slang. Communication Earpieces - set to the same frequency as the rest of your team for quick communication, but can also communicate back to base as necessary TimeTracer - a time period appropriate watch that acts like a GPS tracker for anomalies, so once outside of the ship, agents are still drawn towards anomalies. Nanobot Heal Patch - looks like a bandaid, but with greater capacity — can do basic blood clotting, polymer sealing and stitches. Anything else, get back to the ship for healing. Camera/Recording devices hidden in various era appropriate jewelry, buttons, pens, etc. Take your pick. MicroCamp Capsule - baseball-sized pod that unfolds into a one-person tent. Agents are not required to carry these on their person, but there is always a minimum of 3 stores on each ship.
Banned TechEMPulse Ring - stylish ring that emits a localized EM pulse to disable cameras, bugs, or even basic tech without alerting guards. Eclipse Eyewear - glasses (period appropriate design, 12 hour battery life) with:
- Night Vision Mode: Activated by tapping the right glasses arm once. Tap twice to turn off.
- Infrared Mode: Activated by tapping the left glasses arm once. Tap twice to turn off. Basic thermal imaging for heat detection.
- Sunglasses mode: Tap the bridge to switch to normal sunglasses. Double tap returns to clear lenses/glasses mode.
- Filming capacity. Tap the top corner of the right eye to turn on recording, double tap to stop recording.
- Blinking 3 times will change the glasses to handsfree mode, with eye movement then used for selecting the function.
The Shoelace or bracelet coil - a reinforced lace/bracelet with a coil inside that acts as a garrote/whip. Choose depending on what suits your outfit. NanoQuill Injector - pen that delivers a sedative via skin contact Parasol Displacer parasol/umbrella/cane (depending on era) that fires non-lethal stun darts from the tip, and can unfold into a bulletproof shield for short-term defense. Blush Puff or Cigar Tube Smoke Bomb - old-fashioned puff applicator or metal cigar tube that emits a dense, non-toxic smoke cloud in a 3-meter radius when squeezed hard/twisted open. Used for escapes and cover (or dramatic entrances). Eyeliner or Pen Dart Launcher - liquid eyeliner pen or fountain pen that fires micro tranquilizer darts from the tip. Can hold up to 3 darts. Concealer Stick or Lighter Flash Beacon - stick of concealer or lighter that twists/flicks on to emit a bright flashbang pulse that blinds attackers temporarily. Lipstick or Tie Pin Laser - looks like a normal tube of lipstick or tie pin, but emits a fine, high-intensity laser capable of cutting through locks, ropes, thin metal, or even etching surfaces for coded messages.
Time Jump Bracelet - the technology exists for individuals to time jump without a ship, and while TEA do not endorse this generally (the ship provides more safety and allows for there to be a team), they used to provide all agents with a bracelet that was programmed to directly jump back to base, in case of emergency. However, due to an incident 23 years ago where this bracelet was lost, and discovered by a now Time Orphan, TEA no longer endorse this tech. A secondary rescue team is activated in emergencies instead now. Time Bandits still utilise this technology that allows individuals to time jump without a ship.
Name: Woldmere Heritage Research Estate Purpose (on paper): A government-sponsored conservation and heritage project dedicated to the preservation of rural English history, old farming practices, and ancient woodland ecosystems. It is registered as a private research estate under the UK's Heritage Conservation Trust. This helps explain when locals occasionally see staff in period clothing, old vehicles, strange-looking tech, or meet a time orphan who is still not good at seeming like they’re from 2025. Under this cover, to the outside world TEA employees can claim to be jobs such as:Nearby Towns & Services

Main access road is a single narrow lane, carefully disguised with old stone walls and overgrown hedgerows.
A secondary, emergency route connects to a nearby B-road, concealed under a disused farm track.
There is a security gate at the entrance, where employees/residents need to scan their ID passes to be allowed onto base. This is also manned by physical security 24/7, so there is a manual check that badges match the person — there have been instances of people trying to use stolen badges to break in, so the base is very secure. There are roads through the base, but most choose to ride bikes or walk around (unless you have a lot of groceries to carry), and there are more small paths between all the shops etc.
At this entrance is the car park/garage. While most of the houses/townhouses have at a garage, some households have more cars than spaces, and interns do not have parking in their apartment buildings, so this communal car park can be used. TEA also offer the option to hire a car from their fleet, which is made up of old vintage cars (except they’re like new because they’ve been taken from their original time period). These just need to be signed out (and back in) on the car borrowing system. There is a fleet manager and multiple mechanics who look after these vehicles, and their office/mechanic workspace is also in this area.
Behind the car garage is a larger, more secure Time Ship Garage. Access to this garage is only granted to certain people — a preservationist, for example, would need to be with a wrangler to enter the Time Ship Garage. Innovators also have access to this garage as they are often doing ship upgrades and etc.
Next to the security gate is the beacon tower scanning, which scans for breaches, anomalies & paradoxes and feeds back to the ADG.
The Time Junkyard is where broken or outdated time tech is kept, and often looted for parts for Innovator projects.
Other Areas of interest:Features of the map not covered in this section can be found under the other sections:
- Park (circular) - this is the park more for kids, with play equipment
- Park (square) - there are shaded benches perfect for reading or catching up on reports, a large open lawn often used for impromptu games, frequently used as a nice place to have lunch outside of the office, or for a picnic on weekends. On one side of the park is a training circuit disguised as a "nature trail," featuring outdoor exercise stations. The other side has a cozy gazebo where staff sometimes hold casual meetings or just sit with a coffee in hand. Fairy lights are strung through the trees, giving it a slightly magical, timeless feel in the evenings.
- Pond - with ducks
- Veggie and Herb Garden - this is managed by staff & used in the cooking for the cafeteria — if you want to grow your own vegetables, use your own gardens
- Gym/Pool/tennis court - while the training gym is only for Agent of Time, these facilities can be used by anyone living on base.

HOUSING OPTIONS
Intern Apartment Building
All interns are required to live in this building. 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartment options are available. Note with the floorplans that orientation would change depending on side of the building the apartment is on, these are just as a rough guide.
For the 2 bedroom apartments, both rooms have a door to the ensuite, but the second door automatically locks when the first is locked to avoid accidental walk ins.
Townhouses
Townhouses available in 1, 2, 3, or 4 bedroom. Multi level. 1 beds only have 1 car spot, and 2-4 all have 2 car spots.
Freestanding Houses
2 bedrooms+. Unlike the townhouses which have standard floor plans, there are more variations for houses so players are welcome to find their own floor plans if their character has a house.
