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: IT WON'T BE LONG NOW...
Well, you made a mistake. You spent too long searching around, or you ran outside near the end of the day for just one more thing, and now you've been locked out. You can search around all you want, but the best shelter you can hope for is pressing against the side of a sealed up building. You do still have your tablet, though. Maybe someone on the network can give you some advice, or at least some comfort while you wait for hypothermia to set in.

TWO: CABIN FEVER
Maybe you didn't want that mistake of getting caught outside to happen again, but now you've ended up staying too long in one location, and cabin fever has set in. Maybe you're taking to the network to try and ignore the hallucinations. Maybe you want to tell everyone that you've figured out they're all in on your kidnapping. Maybe you ended up wandering off and now you'd really like to know if anyone can check back in the place you were at for your pants.


Action Prompts
THREE: AN UNEXPECTED MEETING
You're going about your business searching what seems like it might be an especially promising house--it's fully intact and there's even a working fireplace with some wood! It looks like someone else has the same idea, though, and you've run into them in the middle of your search. Do you share the potential wealth or try to kick them out? On the other hand, maybe you know who this is, or maybe you're just glad to actually see another person for the first time in ages.

FOUR: GOOD MORGUE-NING
You've just woken up in a morgue after dying in one unfortunate way or another. You have no idea where you are beyond that, but your tablet is insisting you can't stay here, so you should probably get out of here pretty quickly. Of course, bringing people back from the dead isn't a perfect science, so you're missing something important to you. Maybe you've lost your voice, maybe you can't remember where you're from, maybe you can't remember where you are right now. It looks like someone else is nearby, though. Maybe they can help you out?

Not at all!

[Sugar? She's used to condescending pet names from men, but she's not entirely sure how to respond to it coming from a woman. She chooses to dismiss it, as she often dismisses the language of the men. Coming from a woman, it probably doesn't mean anything. Probably.

Peggy takes out a paper from her backpack, displaying it for the tablet. It's a map that she's been making. She taps where she is on it, frowning at the tablet.]
Do you think you're near here?

[ At least her's won't ever be condescending. Not in the way most men want to put a girl down for being just that.

Sofia scans the map then Peggy's face but more specifically her hair. If Sofia can trust the camera the wind is only blowing one direction. The sketched out buildings aren't ones she recognizes but their general size means she can potentially navigate before the storm really sets in. ]


Maybe. I'm by a wall 'a' snow. If I had to guess it's 4 or 5 stories high and hard to miss. [ She shifts her camera to show some abandoned house, mildly obscured by snowdrift. ] Any chance you passed by?

[ If Peggy has enough wherewithal to draw a map she can recognize a location, Sofia rationalizes. ]

I'm afraid that describes about half the landmarks I've passed.

[But she watches the camera pan over the woman's surroundings, furrowing her brow as she tried to remember if she had seen them before or not. Really, the picture quality on these tiny cameras is stunning.]

I believe I recognize those buildings, however. You see here? [She points to a different spot on her map, towards the edge.] I believe you're right around there.
