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?
Sometimes. [ He admits it easily enough with a shrug of his shoulders, but the look in his eye tells a different story. ]
I mean monsters aren't anything new to me. [ You know, except for the fact that he can't hit any of them. However... He knits his brows. ] But the hallucinations are. We still don't know what starts them... All you can really do is ride things through when it happens. [ And... Hope you don't hurt anyone in the process. Zack hunches over a bit uncomfortably, digging through his own pack and trying to find something to munch on. Food seems like a good distraction. ]
"The hallucinations, right.". [He'd been informed that this was a thing, but he hasn't experienced it for himself yet. He can see how the hallucinations and paranoia could make people unpredictable.]
"You've dealt with these sorts of... creatures, before?"
[ Zack raises his chin just enough to be some semblance of a nod. Then, he's yanking out one of his own crappy ration bars and peeling off the wrapper. He pauses only long enough to admit: ]
Nothing like this back home, no. [ Zack takes a bite. Chews slowly on it. Through a slightly full mouth, he continues: ] The things back home, we could actually take down. Was part of my job. These though? Heh. [ There's something bitter in that short laugh. ]
Yeah, something like that. [ He takes another bite of his sawdust bar and lets silence descend again from his end. But you can only chew on something for so long until you have to swallow it. Especially when it starts tasting like rejected oatmeal. With a sigh, he takes a moment to scratch at the side of his head. ]
I mean someone has to keep them from getting too close for comfort around the towns. Not everyone's trained to deal with the big guys, you know.
Sorry for the delay! Game tags ate me and this got buried!

No worries!

Your job back home is fighting monsters?
