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: TURN AROUND It's after lockdown, but not early enough to go to sleep. You've got everything sorted out, and now you're bored. Time to video chat on the network! Everything's fine from where you are... But unfortunately, there's something behind you. Something humanoid and creeping closer inch by inch, trying to sneak up on you without you noticing. Maybe the person you're talking to will let you know about that. The only problem? If you do turn around to look, you won't be able to see it. If your tablet friend can convince you to move to a different room and close the door, everything will be fine. If they can't, well, they'll be watching you get dragged off into the darkness before too long. TWO: CAUGHT ON FILM Normally, this doesn't happen. In fact, normally it never happens. However, something has gone a bit wrong today, and the tablets are turning on and off by themselves. This makes for some pretty disjointed conversations, with people popping in and out at the worst times. And, of course, someone might see you doing something you'd prefer they didn't see. NOTE: Please don't post anything sexual in regards to this prompt. While in-game the network doesn't allow for accidental posts, we thought you guys could have fun with it here! Action Prompts THREE: HORROR HOSPITAL After a long trek through the ice tunnels, you've finally reached the hospital! You've just stepped inside to see what there is to see... And the door locks behind you. Looks like it's curfew, and guess where you're spending the night? The atmosphere is oppressive and the tablets don't work quite right, but this is probably better than being outside. Maybe you'll have some company with you? And there are probably beds somewhere. FOUR: OKAY GUYS QUICK POLL You've run into some good luck--you've just found a blanket! It's soft and warm and if you fold it right, you're sure it will fit into your backpack. You're sure, but you can't tell, because it's already stuffed full of things. You're going to have to pick and choose what should stay and what should go... But hey, there are other people around! Maybe they can help you sort out your supplies! Maybe you can give them some of the stuff you can't carry! Maybe you can steal their backpack so you can carry more! The options are endless!

[A small sigh.]

Aye, that they are. Sentient creatures with a frightfully long memory and an equally frightful amount of blood on their minds. Their single unified aim is to see the complete destruction of my people.

[Shrug.]

Hence we are a nation of warriors.

[If you thought Beckett was an ass before, just wait until you get him on the subject of war - ]

Naturally complete destruction is their goal. That is always the narrative in such lengthy struggle, especially when a national structure of power is concerned.

[He sounds very academic about it. But then, he does have some experience.]

Although military training does give you advantage over some, in our current predicament.

[silverfuller]

The training is useful, certainly, but I value the experiences I've had with the cold more so.

[He's eager to get off the topic of dragons. Back home saying the wrong thing to the wrong person about dragons could get a man branded as a heretic. While he isn't home, that particular habit of not discussing dragons too openly is a deeply programmed one. Even when he hired adventurers to help him, he never said much about the Dragonsong War. Not unless he truly had to.]

Since the Calamity my country has been one of snow and ice with storms the likes of which can kill a scouting party in mere moments.

I find the local climate is not so different. Were it a desert, I'd hardly know what to do with myself...

[Something moves behind him, almost creeping through the open doorway.]
