Time Echoes

Summary
|
Quite often, dreams drag us into the past, make us relieve our experiences, not
rarely altering the experiences to suit our psyche's exploratory purposes.
Not rarely, dreams explore our near future, with dreamers living their hopes
and their fears in that moment-to-come. What will happen in your job interview
next week? How will be the results of your exam?
Time Echoes is the agglomeration of time-sensitive psychic manifestations,
giving form to a mass within the dreamscape, where, collectively, people live
their future, before it arrives.
Mechanically, Time Echoes is more than an universe like ours, it is our
universe. The same people, the same history. Only here, time happens faster: in
one hour of sleep you live three hours of life. The inflection point in time
can be traced down to the 1st of July, 2021, with each passing day in the real
world seeing not one but three days pass by within the dreamworld.

Roles
- Yourself: 0
By default, in this dreamworld you are... yourself. As powerful (or not) as you
are expected to be, this is you, in your future. It is not a conscious decision
for you to have become - in your dreams - as you did, what the future holds for
you is made from the expectations you have, your goals and your fears. You are
what you subconsciously believe you will be.
OOC: Do not take stats that don't correspond to powers you have or plausibly
will have by the time the dream is taking place. If you predict being dead,
then you are allowed to RP as being a ghost, or a wight. You don't need to buy
all the stats needed to represent powers that you already have, but you should
not buy new ones before acquiring those.
If you are a Fantasy, your 'Yourself' here is the equivalent Dreamchild.
- Human: 30000
You are a Human, and not a very special one.
OOC: This is the equivalent of a Tier One character - including
non-supernatural Blackfield Staff members. There are no Fantasies in this
world.
- Proficient: 60000
You are a proficient human: a Soldier, a Wildling, perhaps someone who passed
through the threads of time.
Or maybe you're more than human: a young vampire or werewolf, someone with the
blood of the Gods, Fae or Demons.
OOC: this is the equivalent to Tier 2. Positive and negative modifiers should
be considered within the Tier, ie, T2-1 and T2+1 are still Proficient.
- Abherration: 90000
You are a ghost, a wight or a living nightmare.
- Veteran: 120000
You are a Veteran of your type - a Soldier of the Special Forces, a Celebrity,
a Pillar in your Community, or even a veteran supernatural.
OOC: this is the equivalent of Tier 3.
- Ageless: 150000
You're done with aging... Unless you're a vampire, in which case, your
centuries have started to show.
OOC: This corresponds to Tier 4.
- Ancient: 180000
Ancient Vampire, Ancient Werewolf, DemiDemon, Angel, God Child or Fae Child.
OOC: This corresponds to Tier 5 archetypes. Note that Angels can both be Freed
or in service to one of the Higher Powers.
- Higher Power: 210000
God, Fae or Demon.

Guidelines
|
(OOC) RP Guidelines, tips and tricks:
- If you have any doubts, suggestions, Lore issues, etc., use the petition
method at will.
- The map is every growing in reach and resolution. If you wish a particular
room to be added, or more detail in some geographical area, don't be afraid to
petition for it.
- Much of what is defined a the rules for this dreamworld (including
mechanically, with the roles and disciplines) assumes player trust and
responsibility - please try to follow the rules. If they don't seem clear
enough, petition. If you have reason to believe the rules aren't being
followed, petition.
