Echo Requests (retired)
Please fill out this form when requesting an Echo, then post it to this entry. The request will be dealt with as soon as possible.
When requesting an Echo induced by a past-life parallel/recurrence, please demonstrate clearly the similarity between the events, as well as the relation between the events and what is returned.
As of September 2013, Tier 2 Echoes can be granted once a month per character. Take care to specify the limitations and/or level of detail to the Echo requested! If you are unsure, suggestions will be gladly offered.
Reason for Echo: What caused the Echo, whether it be by a plot-related trigger or a canon recurrence. For the latter, this must be unusual enough to have been the first time the character has encountered it within Locke City, and strongly resemble a specific event from canon. Picking up a jug of milk from the store will not cause an Echo if it isn't any different than the times the character has done it before.
Type and tier: Physical change, power/ability, mental/memory, or item/creature. Tier 1 are the regular Echoes, and are typically a single memory/ability/item/etc. Tier 2 are essentially two regular Echoes rolled into one, such as an item and a memory or ability associated with it, or two directly-related memories, or so on. Currently only one Tier 2 Echo is allowed per month, so please be sure to note them somehow on your info posts.
What is returned: In the case of canon recurrences, these must be directly related to what has caused the Echo. Stronger recurrences = stronger Echoes.
LAST ECHO REQUESTS FOR A WHILE
Character: Aragorn
Reason for Echo: um everything in that D&D game is basically his life -- but specifically, this time, it's the idea of noble, immortal Elves.
What is returned: The ability to read, speak, and write Elvish languages.
Reason for Echo: Participation in the werewolf hunt!
What is returned: The first part of his fighting skills! He'll be a moderately good fighter, above average but nothing special.
Also, a question. Will you ping me when it's OK for me to start getting echoes again, or should I just ask you, "hey, I think this would ping him, is the cap off yet?"
no subject
As for the Echoes cap, it's more of a soft one at this point in time; use your best judgment is the current rule, though we'll probably be elaborating more on this soon.
If you really need an estimate, I'd say maybe a week and a half to two. Not too long, but enough so that other characters have time to catch up.
