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.

[ admittedly, he does tend to judge people a lot, but talking to a dog won't earn any smartass comments from him. he likes animals, actually—better than people, most of the time. as for religion, he's never had any reason to believe in any benevolent gods, so he's not here to pray, either. actually, being surrounded by the dead is something he's used to. disturbingly so. it's not comfortable, but it's... normal.

at least in this instance he isn't the only living thing in the building. he pauses on the stairs upon hearing the dog snarling, and holds up his hands in as non-threatening a manner as he can. nice puppy... ]

Sorry, didn't know there was someone else here.

[ ...and then the realization that this is, in fact, a room full of dead people creeps into him. it doesn't really show much, but he's definitely frowning. (what else is new?) ]

[ to the dog: ] Hey. [ he snaps his fingers, getting its attention. ] C'mon, boy, let's play... don't-try-to-kill-everyone-we-meet.

[ dane sits, giving up on his threatening stance, and starts scratching his ear with his leg instead. he really isn't scary at all in his natural state. hawke turns his attention back to levi, gesturing to the body with an air of nonchalance that suggests he's a little too accustomed to seeing corpses. ]

I'm not the only someone else here. If we're counting the dead.
