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.

I had that written down just that he remembered that his dad brought back the Ring from Egypt from Ez's talking about having artifacts on hand. this in specific. It was focused on the how he got the Ring as response to Ez's uncle having priceless artifacts just hanging out at his house, not really on what his father did.

With this one specifically being the father involved in that work, doesn't count as specific/different enough?
peacefulwinter: (I like the sound of that.)

Player: MaxSalsa
Character: Winter Adamas [Rikka Hishikawa]
Reason for Echo: Plot - Blood Keys team combat with Bakura, Annie, and Russel; December 11th.
Type and tier: T2, Memory + Memory
What is returned: A conversation early in the school year between Mana and Rikka, regarding Mana's recent awakening as Cure Heart, that quickly devolves into a discussion of the (apparently popular with fourteen-year-olds) Oscar Wilde short story "The Happy Prince", with the ending notably left out. Specifically, Rikka summarizes the idea of the Happy Prince, a gold-leaf-coated statue with gems in his sword and eyes, giving everything of himself to those less fortunate, and a swallow that tries to dissuade him from giving so much of himself but eventually gives in and makes the statue's deliveries of his gold leaf and gems to the poor. (Eventually, the Prince keeps the swallow too late into the winter, and she dies at his feet; his lead heart cracks in two at the sight. This isn't relevant for this Echo, though Winter will probably find it out when she hunts down the story... assuming the Oscar Wilde work that it's sourced from still exists in Locke City. A children's book version also exists in Dokidoki canon, for another character to find and read, with the ending intact.)

Coming out of the story, Rikka tells Mana that the pinkette is just like the Happy Prince, and Mana half-jokingly tells Rikka that that would make Rikka the swallow. That memory ends with the image of a red-faced Rikka objecting on principle, and another memory follows: it doesn't seem to be much later in subjective time, maybe a day or two. Cure Heart is standing before Rikka, apparently having just transformed; the shock is plain on Rikka's face. But one spoken line comes through from Rikka, strong with emotion and resolve: "Please, let me be your swallow!" Cure Heart looks back at Rikka with a shocked expression, before it shifts into a confident grin, and an "okay". That's all Winter sees from this one.

[Effective knowledge gains: cementing that Mana is Cure Heart, and the prince and swallow relationship between Mana and Rikka, as declared, because it's played for spectacular ham aside from the actual descriptive value.]

Player: Ken
Character: Lily Tsukuyomi (Yuri Tsukikage)
Reason for Echo: This conversation with Winter, specifically the mentions of Precure, Cure Diamond, and Cure Sunny.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Basic knowledge of what the Precure are as "Legendary Warriors" who fight evil, and that she was once one of them. She does not recall her own Precure name yet in spite of knowing she is one, nor any names or appearances of her specific team.

EDIT, because castmates hit me twice in a row:

Player: Ken
Character: Lily Tsukuyomi (Yuri Tsukikage)
Reason for Echo: This conversation with Cherry. Specifically, the description of how the flower wilts, which is weird because... (to be continued on what is returned)
Type and tier: Type 1, Memory
What is returned: ...it is the description of a wilting Heart Flower. Normal wilting does not entail just glowing bright and then being dead.

Lily would regain that it is this and its name, and feel that it is a bad, dark, and evil thing to happen, and something REALLY BAD is about to happen to someone and it's probably something she's seen a lot, but... no further information beyond that.

[personal profile] jasminebloominginshadow 2013-12-15 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Razorsaw
Character: Jasmine Tsukuyomi (Dark Precure)
Reason for Echo: This post, basically the general description and the name/concept of Precure being dropped being similar to what she experienced/was a part of.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Jasmine would remember the name "Dark Precure", and the Desert Apostles, and that they had some goal to do something to the world. She would not yet connect the name to herself.

Player: The Guindo
Character: Ravindra Savarna
Reason for Echo: This thread, where he uses his knife-throwing skills against a person for the first time.
Type and tier: Ability | Tier 1
What is returned: His signature weapon-of-light spell, which takes the form of a throwing knife. Basically the magic forms into an insubstantial but tangible blade that persists just long enough to lodge in a target and do some damage.

It is a pretty complex/high-level spell, so it's kind of like being really good at basic algebra and knowing how to solve one type of calculus problem without knowing any of the theory behind it. He won't be able to use it very heavily because he has too many knowledge gaps about efficient spellcasting.

Reason for Echo: Are you fucking serious Arthur
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
