Decisions, Upsets, and Unknowns - An Echo of Sacrifice

Everything you need to know.

Where we left off

Existing artworks: Everything from the original launch in 2022 has been factored into the expanded experience. New collections will be created and housed on Base, of which there will be two. One for all of the artworks within the experience, the other is isolated to Tickets.

You will be airdropped equal holdings to what you currently have on ETH mainnet, this snapshot will take place on February 10th, at 5pm EST. Anything purchased after this time will not be counted. The artworks on ETH mainnet will have their image updated to reflect and you will be free to burn or hold as a relic of the past.

Additionally, I will be reverting the art for the green, blue and pink balloons back to their original state, providing you with the option to capture the “cyclone” artwork independently

Echoes

Echoes: Every thought in Odiville is an echo of what was, is, or will be. You will stumble across many Echoes throughout the book, and each one can be identified by the mark that they leave. Not every Echo can be captured, but every Echo can be burned.

Echoes freely captured, vary in their delicacy, a mystery yet unsolved in Odiville. Why they behave as they do remains to be unknown. Could their dynamic nature suggest they are ill-suited for this realm?

There are a total of 55 Echoes to collect.

Shade

Shade: The value vessel to everything in Odiville. It is trapped inside your tickets, as well as the various Echoes that can be captured as your journey through the book. Each Echo in this experience has a Shade cost and a Shade value attached.

Shade cost = The amount of Shade required to capture an Echo.

Shade value = The amount of Shade that is stored inside of an Echo once captured.

Some Echoes grant more Shade, some grant less, whilst others remain untouched mimicking their original cost.

Ecosystem

This ecosystem is designed with inherent symbiosis, where all Echoes are bound by their underlying Shade. By sacrificing an Echo, you can harness its Shade, which then offers you the chance to capture other Echoes of your choosing. This design ensures the ecosystem is constantly in flux and perpetually evolving.

The focus on community curation is something I've been eager to explore. While I have my perceptions of the most popular Echoes, this project will reveal what the community truly values.

Careful consideration has been paid to the balance of each Echo to ensure an exciting collector experience, combining game-theoretical elements that reward both luck and meticulous attention to detail.

Capture

Capture (Mint): Echoes drift freely in the ether, a swirling amalgamation of everyday thoughts gently gliding in an unseen plane. Occasionally, they escape into our realm, exposing themselves to danger and risking capture.

The act of capturing is to mint an Echo. You can capture many Echoes throughout the book. Minted Echoes will appear in your personal inventory as well as your wallet.

There are a total of 55 Echoes available for capture, each requiring different methods to execute. Some Echoes are available for a limited time, others can be captured indefinitely, and the rest are reserved for auction at Whispers, an auction house currently under construction in Odiville.

Sacrifice

Sacrifice (Burn): Echoes are inherently delicate and can be sacrificed at your discretion. Beneath the surface of each Echo lies an extractable layer of Shade, which can be used to capture other Echoes.

Choosing to sacrifice an Echo means you are prepared to burn the artwork to harness the Shade within, a silent sacrifice, turning ashes into vessels of creation.

There is a user friendly inventory environment where you will be free to sacrifice your Echoes as and when you choose.

Events

There are different events that will happen throughout the book.

Limited Time Artworks

A time window will appear, and for a limited time you will be able capture (mint) these artworks. During the window the shade value will be hidden to prevent gamification.

Interactive Challenges

There are challenges that will be open to everyone, and a worthy reward for the winners.

Timed Auctions

1/1 echoes that capture important moments throughout the book will be listed for auction at Whispers, the auction house residing in Odiville. These auctions will be denominated in ETH, and proceeds will be used to fund future development of Odiville.

Story

A circus has arrived in town, its fliers capturing the gaze of every passerby and awakening echoes of childhood wonder. The air ignites with laughter as the townspeople crowd around the newly installed ticket booth. Drawn by an irresistible curiosity, you find yourself among them and decide to purchase a ticket. As you enter the circus grounds, you read a sign. “Welcome to Odiville”.

FAQ:

What is going to happen to the existing collection?

We will be taking a snapshot of the original collection before going live on Base. Once the experience has launched, you will receive an identical airdrop to match your holdings on ETH mainnet. After the airdrop, the original assets on ETH mainnet will have their metadata and art adjusted to reflect the change. At this point the original NFTs are free to burn, or keep as a relic of the past.

Will the NFTs on Base be on a new contract?

Yes, the Base NFTs will be under a new contract in order to house everything in one place as well as saving the cost to bridge assets. This means, Decisions, Upsets and Unknowns, and the Game Master collections will be merged, the only caveat is that Tickets (NFT) will be moving to it's own collection.
