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?

Oh - I'm sorry, I assumed.

Maybe it falling in on itself is what we want, just not falling in on us. If we find a way to destroy it, we can start looking for civilization.


[ except, back where she's from, there isn't a whole lot of civilization. certainly not very friendly ones. of course, there isn't any Maine, either. ]

Assuming there is any. This is an odd question, but what can you tell me about where you come from?

as long as we're careful about it. we could make a way through or we could make an avalanche.

( probably doesn't have to warn they need to be careful, he just is a survivalist that needs to make that point. )

it's a realm called Maine. cold, but I'm told it gets worse in winter. likely not this bad.

( it is a bit of an odd question, but he's a bit odd himself. he travels worlds frequently, or at least he used to. things can be very different from world to world. )

Where I'm from, Maine hasn't existed for 97 years.

[ she debated mentioning it at first, but if there really is something going on, she figures people deserve to know. ]

it certainly exists, last I saw
97 years? what happened to it? )


( nothing good, he can imagine. time travel is not supported by magic, so he has to wonder. )

are you sure it's the same Maine?

It's the Maine that used to be in the northeastern United States.

[ not too far from where she'd just been. it used to be Virginia a long time ago. ]

War happened.

I'm not sure. I think that's the one.

( united states sounds right... but he's not an expert. )

does the year 2013 mean anything to you?

[personal profile] coleader 2015-06-04 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
It was 136 years ago. Other than that, no. Why?

that's the year it was, before I wound up here.

( time travel is not supposed to be possible, not even by magic. what the hell is going on? )
