If you'd like to apply to Snowblind and would like to test the waters first or get a sample set up for your application, this meme is for you! We've even provided some prompts for you to use if you want (but feel free to make up your own). Here's how it works.
✭ Reply to this entry with a character you're considering apping into the game. You can include the name of your character and the fandom in your subject line. ✭ Comment around to others on the meme, whether you're in the game already or not. ✭ Now you have a sample ready for your application! ✭ So go reserve and apply when reservations and applications are open. ✭ Seriously, do it.
Network Prompts
ONE: SPAM IS MEANT FOR A CAN You awoke today to find a private message in your inbox full of glitchy text from an unreadable username. It doesn't seem to be from @ADMIN, and it's doubtful that any of your fellow unfortunate survivalists have the ability to send a bunch of garbage text from a dummy username. Any attempts to contact the sender of the message only yield silence.
Perhaps your friends on the network will have a better idea of what's going on.
TWO: DING DONG PING PONG You found an app on an SD card that lets you play a game--the app simply refers to it as "game," but those who are familiar with Earth's gaming history will recognize it as Pong. The graphics have been updated, but the mechanics are as simple as ever. Just bounce the ball back and forth and try to hit it past your opponent. This version lets you play with a friend over the network and supports chat simultaneously, so you can video or voice chat while playing with someone!
Or you can use text, but that would probably be inconvenient while you're trying to play.
Action Prompts
THREE: BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE The blizzard has been raging worse than usual for nearly a week now, making travel incredibly dangerous. You and your travelling companion have been stuck in the same house since the weather went out of control, and it's starting to have an effect. While you've not yet succumb to the dangerous fugue that would lead you out into the snow, cabin fever is definitely starting to set in for you...and whoever you're stuck with.
As long as you keep telling yourself the eyes on the walls aren't real. You're the only one who can see them, after all.
FOUR: A TENT-ATIVE FRIENDSHIP Everything has locked down for the night, and it looks like you're trapped outside. This almost certainly means death, but maybe you don't have to take it lying down. You walk for a while, and--what's that? Through the snow, the light of your tablet faintly illuminates the shape of a tent. It seems someone else is stuck out here, too, but they've been luckier in their searches than you.
Time to go see if they'll take pity on you for the night. You probably don't have much longer otherwise...
[Would they? Aigis wants to think that they would, but she's met some pretty bad people. Ikutsuki had no qualms with brainwashing her to kill her own friends. He probably wouldn't share his tent.
She wears a thoughtful expression while mulling this over, at least until Quark starts questioning her.] Oh, yes, I suppose. I was trying to find a place I'd been to before...but it was farther away than I remembered.
[She can't map her coordinates and travel paths anymore! It's tough.]
We should not be too far from it, by my approximation. [Then again, her approximation got her stuck out here, so maybe that should be taken with a grain of salt for now...]
The house I speak of doesn't have a trap door, but I have seen houses that do. There is writing on the walls addressed to the former residents of this town.
[Contact @LELRIC! She's seen him on the network by now, of course, but since she's not a former resident of Norfinbury, she decided it'd be best not to contact him about it.]

[Maybe he can help! In the morning, of course. If the tent's enough for them to make it. He shivers, pulling his coat more tightly around him.]
I don't have anywhere else important to go, anyway.

[It doesn't have many distinguishing features outwardly, though. That might have contributed to Aigis' confusion.]

[Quark folds his arms, frowning.]
Is it, um...a house that has this weird trapdoor that hums and stuff?
