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: BREAK.EXE
You wake up with a new app on your tablet that has a picture of a mirror as its icon. When you open it, you find, unsurprisingly, a mirror. At the bottom of the screen is a single button labeled "BREAK". But when you press it...nothing happens to the mirror in the app. So what does happen? Maybe you hear the distant sound of a mirror breaking--a phantom sound, you find, as nothing has broken in the building you're currently staying in. Maybe you felt a crack render your own flesh. Maybe you felt it render something intangible inside of you. Whatever it was that happened, you're plagued with a sudden onset of foreboding. You have a feeling that your luck has just changed for the worse.

TWO: MIRROR MIRROR
Something's wrong with the Network. No matter what you pick, video is still attaching to all your messages. But even stranger, all the videos feature you reflected in them. That's you, in another building, saying words that aren't your own--you're sure of it. What's going on? And is it the same for everyone else? Maybe you should talk around and check. Maybe it's just a temporary glitch.



Action Prompts
THREE: AN UNFRIENDLY FACE
There's a strange mirror in the building that you and your traveling companions have stopped in. When you're not looking at it, you get the strangest feeling like someone is watching you, looming just over your shoulder. But when you look at it directly...at first, nothing happens. And then you see your companion behind you in the reflection. There's a weapon in their hand, and they look ready to plunge. Whether or not your companion is standing behind you or not, you turn to find that they're not poised to attack at all--and didn't see anything out of the ordinary at all.

FOUR: KNOCK KNOCK
You and your traveling companion are having a horrible time sleeping. Just as you think you're settling in, you hear the sound of knocking. At first you think it's the wind, but the sound only becomes more insistent as the night goes on. When the two of you investigate, you finally find that the source seems to be coming from a mirror on the other end of the building. It's dirty and old, and has been covered with a cloth and faced against the wall. Someone wanted it to be forgotten. But now that you have it...the sound's stopped. Maybe it really was just the wind.

"Indeed." Mycroft lowers his hands and simply watches Dorian. "What is it you intend to do at this point, then, Mr. Pavus? Break the mirror? Search the room?"

"I was thinking something less messy. Help me get this off the wall." Dorian ran a hand over the edge. "And do call me Lord Pavus if you need to address me by my surname. Dorian is better."
