setting

Echoes is a Fae/fantasy Roleplay forum that opened in early February 2024. We are an AU community loosely based on the book series 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' by Sarah J Maas. Our story takes place generally around the time of the first book, before any kind of war with Hybern. However we do not strictly follow the plot or timeline of any of the books directly but only use them as loose inspiration to generate our play. It generally follows a fantasy tone when it comes to buildings and clothing with modern-ish touches like indoor plumbing, heating and lighting that runs on magic.


Our major site wide plot now vibes with just after the first book where the evil Queen has been slain and Prythian is free of her cruelty. We take our own AU Adventure here by bringing back the eighth court - the Dusk court but they're not what you expect!

It is a beautiful flower whose purpose, when crushed into a poultice, can be used to stem off infection. Either externally by smearing it into the wound or by digesting it as a tea.

Devils Root

Found in hotter Courts or warmer seasons of Prythian, Devils root is highly poisonous when ingested. It blends well with many potent smelling drinks but has a very subtle tell tale scent of something akin to pepper.

Ziaya berry

The Ziaya berry, when ripe, have a bright aqua colouring that attracts the likes of birds and foraging animals. They are found on medium sized shrubs all over Prythian in the hottest seasons of the year. Making them more readily available in Summer Court through more seasons and less so in the colder regions such as Winter Court. Be mindful though, eating the berries when they're white, before they ripen, can make a person terribly ill with fever, the sweats and/or vomiting/diarrhea.

Eldarberry

The Eldarberry is a purple berry found in the Spring Court forests on the Eldar shrub. A berry that many animals and birds eat and forage for safely but has toxic traits for most humans and Fae alike. The berry is said to have hallucinogenic properties that some say are often prophetic in nature. Whether this is true or not varies from person to person depending on who you ask but it does cause hallucinations and is not considered fatal if ingested. It is recognized for its purple colour and it's unique spicy-sweet flavor.
