Bio

I'm EchoicChamber, though I mostly go by Echo.
I'm in my twenties, and returned here on a whim.
I have no idea what's happening at any given moment.

I made another character cause why not. :D
@The One Sometimes in certain canons, Esperanza has a pet...thing she calls Chu, short for Chupacabra. The thing is likely the result of another magical family's attempt at summoning a familiar gone wrong, so they passed it off to the Ciervos as a "peace offering", and Esperanza was likely delighted to take it because she's incredibly lonely despite how bizarre it is. I'll likely give a better description of it on her page, but it's essentially this magical monstrosity with human teeth/a human tongue, a cluster of eyes, a row of soft teeth the consistency of mothballs in front of the weird human teeth, and a habit of stealing people's food and screaming like a barn owl in distress.

And yeah, that helps a lot. Thank you! I'm just trying to decide which of my characters I might throw in, cause there's a few that I usually repurpose for different roleplays that I feel could fit in the canon, but I'm not sure yet.

EDIT: Would it be alright if I PMed you with some of the character concepts I'm considering? I'm not sure which one would fit the setting the best, so it might help to have the opinion of the GM. c:
@The One This is a bit late, but sorry for clogging up the OOC! ^^;

I'm thinking about giving Esperanza a pet abomination, but I haven't been able to find an image for it, due to how generally bizarre the thing looks. Would that be alright?

Also, I'm thinking about making another character, but I'm still on the fence about it. How do vampires work in this canon, if I may ask? Is it the usual "bit, then go sterile and are unable to age" deal, or is it different?
@semicolon I could see them knowing about each other at the very least. It's possible that the Ciervos were kind of cleaning up a mess around their borders, and maybe Fis' family caught sight of them sealing up a demon or something, so the two families kind of traded tips over that? The Ciervos probably didn't/don't approve of the constant summoning and binding of demons, as they view it as a bad omen, but as long as Fis' family didn't act in an actively hostile manner towards them or defile their gravesites I think they'd treat the Kalix family fairly amiably.
@semicolon I'd be down for that. Esperanza's family is kind of infamous due to its fervent worship of death, its past cannibalistic practices/kidnapping of random folk that got too close and ritualistically sacrifices them, and for generally being a strange bunch in general. They're very reclusive, but tend to welcome most people who want to join (save for immortals, as they're kind of off put by people that death itself refuses to take), and often send some members out to try and convert other people or for business or otherwise. Magic wise, the necromancer gene tends to crop up more frequently among women of the Ciervo line, or, if it does appear in a man, it tends to be weaker. Although that's probably not helped by the fact that they don't really train any male necromancers that they have, haha.

Does all that help?
@semicolon I feel like she'll be very confused because she tends to think of demons as sinister deal makers, and also because she wouldn't think that the overlap between being a demon and being a necromancer would be possible (as her cult believes that demons prey on souls after death, and they don't see that as respectful enough to the dead for the dead to let themselves be summoned by one). She might get kind of frustrated because Ahim likely knows a lot more than her as well, being a demon, and would probably use it as incentive to become a stronger necromancer.








@semicolon Just finished reading up on yours. c: I definitely feel like there's potential for some interesting dynamics between Esperanza and your characters- especially between Esperanza and Ahim, seeing that she's been raised up to believe that being a male necromancer automatically puts you at a disadvantage when compared to a woman.

@The One Sorry about the length, haha. It's mostly details about the cult Esperanza comes from, and some of the practices that they perform. As for the blood magic, she most likely believes that using her own blood is stronger (cause freaky death cult), but I'll keep that in mind for future reference. c: Should I move her over to the character tab?
Hi! Hope you don't mind, but I'm interested in joining with my very enthusiastic necromancer. c:


@Stitches Pretty much everything in Fallen London is canon in this roleplay. However, you aren't required to know everything about Fallen London to join this roleplay. The stuff on the front page is basically the minimum of what you need to know about the story in order to join- knowing more about the canon is beneficial, and could help add depth to your character and their history, but you can still join without that extensive knowledge. Does that make sense?

EDIT: Vit phrased it much better than I could, haha.
