Echo Requests (retired)

[theearth]

New Echo Request page here!

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.

[wirsinddiejager]

Player: Aave
Character: Alan
Reason for Echo: Talking with Ellie about how titans work
Type and tier: Memory/ability, tier 2
What is returned: Memory of waking up in the nape of his partial titan form with no idea of what's going on. Also, the ability to create a partial titan form - about the size shown in the second picture. Like Eren's initial transformations, this will be extremely draining physically and pretty much result in Alan passing out. He also won't be aware of this ability on a conscious level before using it for the first time.

[talktothedoll]

Player: Airdra
Character: Mort Yokugawa/Kiyoto Maki
Reason for Echo: Bakura's pranking Mort with his own creepy doll.
Type and tier: Ability linked to an item, Tier 1
What is returned: Mort's creepy doll will gain its ability to move on its own. In-canon, it simply changes its pose when the shot cuts to someone else, but it does it so quickly there's no way Maki would have been changing the doll's pose itself. There's also another instance where it's pretty heavily implied to be blowing out birthday candles on its own, much to another character's alarm. It's the sort of thing that's really only played for a sight gag, and Mort will have absolutely no control over what the doll does. It's movements simply provide a bit of accompaniment to whatever Dr. Maki does, and it won't move when anyone's directly looking at it. (It may, however, look a bit sad after being shut in a drawer for a while, much to Mort's dismay.) It also won't physically move locations or manipulate items on its own; it just changes its pose. At worst, it'll blow out candles somewhere.

Reason for Echo: Azure's been directed to this post! Mezool's seen that bird quite a few times.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: The memory of a bunch of gross looking eggs growing in a nest. It's the main way Mezool manifests her power, and when she sees the birds, they're usually in the process of discovering her nests.

Character: Skyler / Sora
Reason for Echo: BIG PILE OF TREASURE DANG
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: The memory of the innermost chamber of the Cave of Wonders! And since Octavia is delightfully blue in the image, I wonder if getting a visual of a certain Genie would be all right too?

[erenplz]

Player: Sam
Character: Mikasa Ackerman

What is returned: The memory of slicing titan!Annie's fingers off and making her fall down the wall. Then when she got home afterwards she would've found her 3DMG waiting for her, if that works!

Reason for Echo: followed the buzzing to the towers
Type and tier: ability/memory, tier 1
What is returned: His suit cards that are used to generate fusion stars, as well as the memory of how they are used. (I'd preferably like this to count as one since the cards themselves are such a gaming abstraction I'd have no idea how to introduce them on their own.)

Player: Louise
Character: Ellie
Reason for Echo: Talking about how big titans were, with "over fifty metres" being presented as a suggestion.

[strikeraid]

Player: Mawi

Character: Stella / Romsca

Reason for Echo: ALL A DA LIGHTS
Type and tier: Tier 2! A long old memory.
What is returned: She now remembers delivering a wizened old mouse wearing a habit to a ship's cabin. full text here! Since this is a long, detailed memory full of names and faces, I figured this should be a Tier 2. If this isn't quite enough for a Tier 2, can she have her sword fighting ability back? It's not as though she can stay up on her hind legs, nor does she have opposable thumbs, nor does she have a sword, but the ability can be there.

Reason for Echo: We've got multiple people talking about seafaring shit on her post. Something's gonna have to ping.
Type and tier: Tier 1! A memory.
What is returned: A memory of her on a ship leading a bunch of rowing crewbeasts in the middle of an icy ocean. full text here!

Character: Azure / Mezool

Reason for Echo: ALL A DA LIGHTS
Type and tier: Tier 2! A physical change and a new ability.
What is returned: Her left hand is now made of of medals. Specifically, it's made up of a mass of silver Cell medals, and among those medals is a Core medal. Losing a Cell medal will sting a bit, but cause very little damage; losing her Core medal is painful and will cause her hand to shatter into its component Cell medal parts, leaving a stump. On the bright side, though, since it's made of metal, the hand is very sturdy and she could probably give someone a moderate injury with it if she gave them a good punch. The ability related to the hand is shapeshifting; that hand has a default monster form, but she can transform its appearance so it looks like a regular hand again. No other forms yet!

As a side effect of the return of one of her core medals, her eyes glow blue whenever she uses one of her powers. I hope this is all right? It's purely aesthetic and will hopefully encourage her to keep her powers on the downlow.

Reason for Echo: She has now visited the Tuning Towers. :D
Type and tier: Tier 1, an ability upgrade.
What is returned: Her water powers are now stronger! She can now easily manipulate enough water to fill a kiddy pool. She can also materialize small droplets of water, no more than a teaspoon at a time.

Character: Skyler/Sora

Reason for Echo: ALL A DA LIGHTS
Type and tier: A Tier 1 Physical Change
What is returned: His hair now spikes on his own and is basically waterproof. My laughs are many and deeply rumbling.

Reason for Echo: All of this talk about killing giants + his previous memories of monsters = ....
Type and tier: A Tier 1 memory!
What is returned: A memory of being on a bright, stained glass platform. He sees his shadow rise from the ground! Also there's a disembodied voice telling him to not be afraid but FUUUCK THAT. He runs away from it, but the edge of the platform drops off sharply. He turns around... and sees this sumbitch. full scene here!

Reason for Echo: He's made a trip to the Tuning Towers!
Type and tier: Tier 2! An ability and a creature.
What is returned: On the way back home from the towers, a very strange dog cat thing will be following him. It can't do anything but follow him and look cute. Actually, since it's a dream (a literal... dream...), it's basically intangible to everything but, uh, copious amount of pettings and scritches. It can also eat! But it can't go through walls or anything. Any time it tries to attack someone, it'll just pass right through. No attacks, no powers. Just weird doge. Dreams can be selective like that.

ALSO SKYLER HAS A DEPOWERED VERSION OF SPARK YEAH!! He can charge his hand with light and punch someone with it for extra oomph. Or use it as a nightlight. This is not the full Spark spell, much less Sparkga - those are WAY more powerful. This spell is first available to Sora in the dreamworlds where he first met Meow Wow, so I thought it'd be appropriate.

Reason for Echo: SHADOW POWERS SHADOW POWERS BREEPBREEPBREEP
Type and tier: Tier 1! Yet another memory.
What is returned: He remembers that silver haired douchebag from one of his echoes wearing a VERY EVIL BODYSUIT turning an entire area dark and phasing in and out of the walls, flying STRAIGHT AT HIM. Yes, he remembers Dark Aura. IT SUCKSSSSSS. (also what is that thing he is holding WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT A GIANT KEY)

[toobig]

Player: nor
Character: Bertholdt Fubar
Reason for Echo: This whole thread. Talking about papoose(s?) and Titans.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: Bertholdt regains the memory of having Eren tied to his back and Reiner using his giant Titan hands to shield them from something. Reiner protecting him gives Bertholdt a distinct feeling of safeness, but he won't know what was going on to cause it.

Player: nor
Character: Bertholdt Fubar
Reason for Echo: This whole thread, Annie/Ellie showing off her 3DMG.
Type and tier: Physical/Item, Tier 2
What is returned: His 3DMG and the muscle memory of how to use it. He won't remember how to use it exactly, but his body will.

[drama8om8]

Player: Louise. Are you sick of me yet
Character: Octavia
Reason for Echo: KARSON VALENTI IS A GIANT DOUCHE WHO TALKS ABOUT GROWING EXTRA EYES LIKE A TOOL
Type and tier: tier 1 physical
What is returned: In canon, Vriska has eight eyes. Kind of. Her left eye has eight separate pupils (each with their own iris), forming an asterisk-like shape. For now, I just want Octavia to gain the extra pupils around her existing one - no split iris yet. Like this!
