i've got no way to show identification

You know the cliched plotline where someone loses their memory in some way, be it a bump on the head, being hit by a laser, enacting your evil plan to throw the good guys off your trail, or just randomly forgetting everything you ever knew one day just for the hell of it? Well, now you've gone and done it. You've lost your memory, Hollywood-style, and you can't remember who or what you are. Good going!
Not to be confused with an Amnesia: The Dark Descent meme. Sorry folks.
HOW IT WORKS:
- Tag the meme, leaving your character name, fandom, and any preferences in the subject line.
- Other character tags you.
- You tag back, and use the random number generator to select from the following options, either for you or the person tagging you. Or don't, and do whatever strikes your fancy. If you roll something your character already is, either roll again, go for human, or pick something that otherwise suits your fancy.
- Other character reacts, or is free to also roll on the table
- Play out the results.
- Have fun, but respect the preferences of others.
- And, of course, there may be triggers in this meme. So be warned.
1. Wake Up Time!: They've woken up. Maybe in a hospital, maybe on the street, maybe in a scientist's lair, but their first reaction is the same - they can't recall how they got there. Or where they were before. Or their name. Or...perhaps they don't remember anything from before waking up...and there's no identification on hand to help them out!
2. Try To Blend In...: Your character's decided to try and make the best of it, and embark on a new life, and new identity. Of course they can't escape the nagging feeling that they should be doing something entirely different with their life, but maybe they ignore it in favor of some normalcy. Or they stay forever curious about their forgotten life...
3. This Feels Familiar: Maybe its a place, or a person, or just a general feeling, but your character feels an incredibly strong sense of deja-vu about...whatever it is. It is strong enough to think that maybe - just maybe - this could be a clue to who your character really is! Now the question is - is it really?
4. How Could You Have Forgotten Me?: Oh boy. It was bound to happen. Someone runs up to your character to give you a giant hug, and they are just so happy to see your character is ok! Looks like your character's going to have to break the bad news to them - your character's never met them before now and don't remember ever meeting them. Your character can only hope they take it well as they try to explain this all to them...
5. You're On My Side, Remember?: Oh, hey, there's someone who seems to not only know who your character really is, but can explain that your character and he/she were the best of friends and did everything together and maybe there were these jerks that were responsible for their memory loss! There's just one problem - this person was actually your character's enemy pre-memory loss. Not that they remember this...which suits this enemy just fine.
6. Through Different Eyes: Maybe your character was rich pre-amnesia, and they're poor. Or evil, and they're good. Two things are for certain, however. Before your character lost their memory, your character and this other person have never met before - or if they have, they don't know they have. And they're both in the same bind somehow - kidnapped, about to be laid off, it could be anything - or just have something in common. Slowly, the two characters bond, becoming the best and unlikeliest of friends as they both go through life and its trials.
7. Lock and Load!: No memory loss plot is complete without some kind of battle! It can be an insanely epic superhero battle where your character's friends must fight your character - as an amnesiac enemy! Or it can be as normal as your amnesiac character arguing in front of the school board to prevent the under-funded program from being closed - by the company they ran before they lost their memory, ironically. Basically, a battle where your character's on a different side due to their amnesia.
8. Hulk Smash Your Head: The endgame. Someone has decided your character's been amnesiac long enough and is taking action! And thus, your character is about to get their memory - or have gotten it - back. How? How will they react when you remember everything and try to reconcile it with what they did (if they remember what they did while amnesiac, of course)? And...can someone get your character an aspirin!?
9. Joker's Wild. Mix, match, or make up your own!

PETRE ( oc )
but what if (further down the dark fifth rabbit hole)
Petre's case was unprecedented: a mutation losing power with overuse had never been seen before, so no one knew if or how they would return. As it happened, and as things tend to happen with Petre, it was the worst way possible - like a second manifestation, unexpected and too strong for him to contain.
So when he looked John in the eye and said This school means nothing. Ryan means nothing. Your whole life means nothing. All that matters is me. Well. John was literally left with nothing but Petre, and even then, the face and name were all that he retained. The rest of his mind was wiped blank by the command, and with such force that the Professor and Dr. Grey had no choice but to hide him away in the infirmary while they put their heads together on how to undo the damage.
They reluctantly allow Petre to visit, though, because he's all that gives John comfort now. He's still moody and erratic without regular company from his one touchstone, the one solid thing in this confusing new world, and an erratic John Allerdyce is a danger to anyone. Purely by accident this time, Petre has gotten exactly what he always wanted: a fresh, clean John, untainted by the memories of all his past betrayals, now imprinted to him more intimately than ever.
He's sitting up in bed after a bland lunch, face eerily blank but for a slight air of cheerfulness, waiting for one of his regular visits. This is the best time of day. This is when he sees the person he knows.]

Nelo Angelo/Vergil Sparda ][ DMC1 (mix of 3 and 4)
[ But this was not the end for Nelo Angelo, His final disapperance was not his death but retreating to save his life. However, his master did not take to failure. A strong blast hit him just before Dante faced Mundus, and when the island blew, the already unconscious demon knight was lost to sea.
He should have drowned with that suit of armor on. The fates decided to be kind to the Demon Hunter Dante though, just a day or so later, Nelo Angelo washed ashore and a tip from another demon hunter was sent to Devil
MayNever Cry about a strange demon found on an island near Mallet Island. A demon in a suit of armor who had not yet woke and was being kept in chains until Dante arrived to make a choice as no one else wanted to even mess with it.]no subject
The other hunter wasn't dumb- Vergil was being kept in a deserted warehouse with few prying eyes and plenty of cover in case things went south. Dante was able to go there as soon as he could with little worry of who saw him.
When he got there, however, he froze in his tracks. He had been foolish enough to not realize who Vergil was until it was too late last time, but not this time. This time, he didn't even have to look at him a split second to know who it was. Finally, he regained his composure and got closer.]
You know, I always figured you'd be smarter then to let yourself get caught by some second-rate devil hunter.

Irene Adler || BBC Sherlock
She did not regain consciousness for days in the hospital, and when she did, she could tell the staff nothing.
So they called her Jane Doe.
Sort of 4
"Sherlock, I saw her. It has to be her," he'd said over the phone. "She's...different, but it's her. You need to get down here before Mycroft does."
As if Sherlock weren't already in the taxi. He steps off the elevator and strides towards the room. 302, labeled "Jane Doe." The Woman must have some sort of a plan. She wouldn't just be sitting here, waiting to be caught by the British Government.
He doesn't knock. He simply opens the door.
