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: 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.

*He understands the concept of video games but...not like this.*

idonot think games work that way

[personal profile] eclecticbassist 2015-12-23 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
youre right!
normally they do not
i think it just functions like a game because that is easy to understand
the goal is to create a new universe
but we also did a bunch of other things that had pretty far-reaching consequences in the past and the future

the session my friends and i played kinda went off the rails though
in ways that even i had trouble understanding


[ ...meaning that that can of cosmological worms is already half-open; even if you're curious, only worse confusion awaits. ]

*Okay, way too much of this is going over his head. He's not sure she's not just screwing with him or crazy, so he's not sure how much effort he wants to put into trying to understand this anymore. But he won't leave it at just that.*

?

*...not that that's much to go on.*

[personal profile] eclecticbassist 2015-12-23 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)

*Meaning there were time-and-space shenanigans there but the ones here aren't exactly the same.*

[ Time-and-space shenanigan buddies! Comrades in Weird Shit™! Chums who are similarly subject to the wills of unknowable entities! As far as any word suggesting friendship can even apply to him, obvs. ]

how so? :O
if i am understanding you correctly it sounds like you are familiar with this sort of thing
('this sort of thing' meaning 'strange and creepy stuff happening')
even if whatevers going on here is not very similar to your experiences
it is good to know what to rule out as an explanation


[ ... ]

and you are a much better conversation partner than the anomalies! ;P

[ Those creatures are still outside and hahahaAaAA NOPE. ]
0thingsonmymind: (Operator)

hehe, thats not very specific
but i am going to guess that you mean some of the things this place um....
does to your head are similar?
[ Jade gets the impression that he is not a well-adjusted resident of a place that receives frequent snowfall. ]

[ She's totally been there with the "not being disturbed by stuff that you probably should be" thing, though. ]

and i was making a joke!
the idea of these things having a conversation is pretty far-fetched
so to say that you are better than them at conversing is kinda funny
because that is obvious
