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.

[ steve pauses at the sight of the metal arm, brows furrowing, before he gives himself an almost imperceptible little shake and moves on. his brows furrow even further, however, when he finally parses what the other man has said, and he frowns deeply. ]

I'm not just going to leave anyone out there. If there's even a chance they could be alive, I'm going to find them. And if they're not... Everyone deserves a proper burial.

[ it's not hard to see that steve is only half talking about the situation at hand -- his mind is far afield, thinking on another time when he should have been searching for someone in a winter wasteland.

he's not going to make the same mistake twice.

Okay, super heroic. I'm giving you like ten for ten, but seriously dude you do not have time to be burying people out in the snow with those things out there. [You will totally die. You're going to die and if you die, that's...well, that's bad for everyone.

It goes without saying they need all the competent help they can get here.

Then I'll bring the bodies back with me and bury them when it's safe.

[ it's that simple. no one is getting left outside, not even a body, not if steve has anything to say about it -- and he's so stubborn, he usually gets to have his say. ]

There's no time for this, anyway. Is everyone you know accounted for? Every second counts in situations like these and if there are people missing I need to get out there right away.
