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: BUMP IN THE NIGHT It's dark out, and congratulations - you're inside! What's not inside, you might ask? Monsters. Shadowy monsters that have surrounded whatever house you've taken shelter in. They can't get in... or can they? From time to time, the doors and the walls creak as if under an unbearable pressure.
Who can sleep when it's like this? Maybe you should take to the network to find a distraction. Or maybe someone has advice for getting rid of those things.
TWO: BRING OUT YOUR DEAD We mourn the loss of those who have died in the time between the last announcement and this one:
...is that your name on that list? It might be. Maybe you should let the others know you're not actually dead. Or, you know, if you happen to spot the name of someone you know and love on there, it might be time to ask around and see if anyone knows what happened to your dearly departed...
Action Prompts
THREE: KYRIE ELEISON You've found yourself in a small chapel, complete with bolted-down pews, an altar devoid of symbols, and stained glass windows depicting various saints. It's quiet... one might even say dead quiet. Which is a really awful pun to be making, considering if you follow the stairs down to the basement you'll find a morgue.
Explore to your heart's content, but you'll be forced out at 7 PM. Hopefully you don't find any unfortunately familiar faces among the dead.
FOUR: LIGHTS OUT Against all odds, you've managed to make it to shelter for the night. You pull the door shut behind you and turn to look at your surroundings - and that's when you see it. A ... person. Is it a person? It's hard to tell, because a moment later, you're plunged into darkness.
...better hope that's another unfortunate visitor to Norfinbury you've been locked in with, and not something more threatening.
Jeez! These guys are touchy! All I did was say something maybe not so nice about ONE's mother and he got all his friends to show me how displeased he was. Somebody really needs to teach these guys to relax.
So...in a completely unrelated note...these houses are stronger than they sound/look, right?
Four
*There's a distinctly canine form slipping into the shelter and pulling the door shut. He perks his ears, noticing he's not alone just as the light goes out.*
Uh...hello? Please be friendly.
*No, wait, that's a person. Maybe the dim light and snowstorm outside makes your eyes play tricks on you? Or maybe you're stuck in a room with a talking dog.*
[Without the benefit of enhanced senses, the darkness is difficult to navigate, and Becektt is tense and ready for things to inevitably go wrong. On catching a glimpse of something distinctly not humanoid enter, he rises from his crouch at the back of the room, wrench close to hand. But hearing speech is a relief, or the start of it at least.]
I am if you are. [That seems the simplest way to put it.] Although if one of us was a monster, I suppose the other would already be dead.
*He breathes a sigh of relief at the answer and pads away from the door...then stops a few steps away from it because he can't see a damned thing either. That was frustrating, but at least he could use this guy's voice and scent to pinpoint his general location.*
The monsters here sure don't seem to be willing to talk.
*That should mean this guy was safe. Or, at least, he could try to trick reason with him if needed.*
So.....nice to meet you?
*How do you even do introductions in a snowy wasteland alternate universe, anyway?*
[It certainly is nice in the sense of not involving being eaten alive. Beckett's automatic response is a perfunctory nod, although after a moment he realizes that it is lost to the darkness. He creeps closer, slowly - slow enough that the other would not be startled should he spot the movement. What he saw - is it a wolf?
That would be... no, he isn't getting any hopes up. Or concerns, for the matter, wolves being involved.]
And you. [His tone is guarded, but not hiding his curiosity.] You get mistaken for a monster rather often, I imagine.
I notice most things. [He's casual about it. Curiosity, rather than fear or hostility, is what motivates the question. Perhaps the other man would prefer that.]
Is it an effect of the town? I haven't heard of such transformations before, but it seems to slot into the general pattern...
*He's not really sure why he can't shift here. He figured it was something to do with...whatever this realm was. If he's correct that'd make the answer 'yes,' and if he's wrong...its back to 'i have no fucking clue.'*
...yes. Its this place. I mean, what else could it be? People are normally people, right? But they're also not normally stuck in...whatever snowy hell hole this is freezing to death.
*Assuming this is one of those realms you can die in and not just get spit out somewhere else. He'd really prefer the second option but isn't about to test it.*

*It doesn't seem to be a very good lie, at least not on the surface.*

You do have a rather, shall we say, distinct appearance. Everyone else here is, at least bipedal if not strictly humanoid.

*He was hoping the lights went out too quickly for anyone to notice. But it figured he wasn't that lucky.*
Lets just say its a, uh, temporary situation.

[In a rather worrying way, actually.]
