TEST DRIVE MEME

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: BUMP IN THE NIGHT
It's dark out, and congratulations - you're inside! What's not inside, you might ask? Monsters. Shadowy monsters that have surrounded whatever house you've taken shelter in. They can't get in... or can they? From time to time, the doors and the walls creak as if under an unbearable pressure.

Who can sleep when it's like this? Maybe you should take to the network to find a distraction. Or maybe someone has advice for getting rid of those things.

TWO: BRING OUT YOUR DEAD
We mourn the loss of those who have died in the time between the last announcement and this one:

...is that your name on that list? It might be. Maybe you should let the others know you're not actually dead. Or, you know, if you happen to spot the name of someone you know and love on there, it might be time to ask around and see if anyone knows what happened to your dearly departed...


Action Prompts
THREE: KYRIE ELEISON
You've found yourself in a small chapel, complete with bolted-down pews, an altar devoid of symbols, and stained glass windows depicting various saints. It's quiet... one might even say dead quiet. Which is a really awful pun to be making, considering if you follow the stairs down to the basement you'll find a morgue.

Explore to your heart's content, but you'll be forced out at 7 PM. Hopefully you don't find any unfortunately familiar faces among the dead.

FOUR: LIGHTS OUT
Against all odds, you've managed to make it to shelter for the night. You pull the door shut behind you and turn to look at your surroundings - and that's when you see it. A ... person. Is it a person? It's hard to tell, because a moment later, you're plunged into darkness.

...better hope that's another unfortunate visitor to Norfinbury you've been locked in with, and not something more threatening.

[WELL EXCUSE U SCOOTER BOY actually never mind that was totally his idea.]

I know, but in case you didn't notice, there wasn't exactly a better option available at the time! I just wasn't counting on finding an obituary with your name on it, dude, and just for the record, those were not the greatest thirty minutes of my life.

[Please never do this to him again. Or, well, @admin please never do this to him again. And alright, fine, so maybe all's well that ends well and other Shakespearian bullshit, but the idea of the admin not paying attention?? Yeah, sorry Scott, you're getting an incredulous look and an eyeroll.]

Yeah, the "person" who writes them somehow magically knows everything that's happening here, exactly who has died and where so they can be moved to the morgue, and they somehow make the mistake of announcing the death of someone who isn't actually dead? Don't tell me that actually sounds plausible to you. [And that's not even touching the whole "is it even a person" thing. So far, Stiles's best guess is something like a seer or maybe a giant A.I. who keeps track of them through the tablets.]

[ He almost thinks to compliment Stiles on his ability to vocalize air quotes. Stiles doesn't even have to do them. You just hear them. He probably will at some point, if he's being honest, but not now. ]

It doesn't sound plausible. But do you have any better ideas?

[ Scott's trying his hardest here, racking his brain for explanations, but there simply aren't any. Nothing about Norfinbury makes sense, not even the obituaries. ]

It's not like they were planning for me to die.

[ ...or were they ]
