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.

[alilyinthemoonslight]

Player: Ken
Character: Lily Tsukuyomi (Yuri Tsukikage)
Reason for Echo: This discussion with Jasmine, the description of the scene, and most importantly the name "Dark Precure."
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Lily receives Yuri's memory of the end of HCPC Episode 10.

After defeating Cure Blossom and Cure Marine, the two are knocked into the ground, in their mid-transformation glowing dresses, their fairies assisting them. Dark Precure summons her Dark Tact, preparing to finish them off... but is stopped when she sees Yuri observing from behind.

Dark Precure just smirks and teleports away in a red flash.

What Lily would know from this is that this "Dark Precure" looks just like her sister. Most everything else is pretty easy to figure out from inference - She obviously already recognizes Tsubomi as Cerise, and with their fairies present in that very moment, it's not hard to infer them as the same creature she saw die in her first echo. Seeing her sister about to inflict harm on Cerise and another girl, combined with Yuri not exactly having kind thoughts towards Dark Precure in general, makes it pretty clear in that moment that she is indeed an enemy.

Edit - Oh, and she obviously wouldn't learn any new terms besides "Dark Precure" because it was told to her, but I'm just using them here to make explanation easier.

[sassymaru]

Player: Red
Character: Shadowmaru | Yuji Takenaka

Reason for Echo: Blood Key encounter in this thread.
Type and tier: Tier 1: Ability
What is returned:
His ability to remotely hack electronic devices. With his mind. Canon is unspecific as to the limitations of the skill, so, for in-game purposes, and echo purposes, we'll say it's nothing with incredibly high security -- small electronics and personal computers. Until he's a robot again anyway.

[espigeonage]

Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien
Reason for Echo: Playfully greeting someone in another, flashier language, then proceeding to use the lingua franca as usual.

Yuuya typically greets people with "Salut!" and leaves them with "Adieu!"
Type and tier: Mental, Tier One.
What is returned: A tendency to, well, want to greet people with a word in some different language, and depart similarly. It's not a compulsion or anything.

He'll likely tend to use Elvish, because that's fun.

[seabeast]

Player: Mawi
Character: Stella
Reason for Echo: Getting a whiff off of her tunic is her first real scent of the sea!

What is returned: She is now aware that she consumed seaweed (one of the scents she got off the tunic) in the form of an alcoholic beverage! Additionally, she has a taste and tolerance for alcohol back proportional to her size.

[vetala]

Player: Surge
Character: Kanti Singh
Reason for Echo: Encounter with the Blood Keys; Dated 12/18
Type and tier: Tier 2 - Mental+Memory
What is returned:
- The memory of killing Eridan Ampora.
- The mental attitude an Alternian would have towards killing.

On Alternia, death and killing are seen as a very normal thing to do. Kanaya is never shown to have any issue with killing those she considered deserving of it, such as when she killed Eridan for his betrayal and initially desired Gamzee for his as well. It shows that while she isn't full-scale homicidal, she is very much fine with murdering when it's needed.

[theboywiththebook]

Player: Chris
Character: Henry Cassidy/Mills
Reason for Echo: Blood keys encounter with other kids
Type and tier: Physical and tier 2
What is returned: The heart of the truest believer. Henry has shown in canon that if he believes in something he can make it. Like he did by turning a stick into a sword. Now this could even follow through with other OUAT type magic that's been seen on the show and all he'd have to do is just believed he could do it. However, this is a pretty big thing for him to be getting all at once so I'm okay with him only getting the item creation back for the moment.

[theearth]

Now, this is a special Echo so we're going to approach it a little differently from others.

Echo approved on the grounds that:
1) his current ability only enables him to transform items, not create items from nothing, and,
2) it carries with it a limit on how many items he's able to transform per day. There are two ways we propose handling this:

a) he can transform 5 items and simply fail on any further attempts until 24 hours have passed, or
b) he can transform 5 items, after which he temporarily reverts to an Echoless state for 24 hours.

Let us know what you decide and if you have any further questions!

[adorabastard]

Player: Kas
Character: Alistair
Reason for Echo: psychic dreams, you say?
Type and tier: memory, tier 1
What is returned: Memories of his nightmares of the Archdemon, and knowing what he saw in his dreams was very real. (Note: this won't be the return of the actual nightmares; just the memories of them.)

[originaloddcouple]

Player: Nerdman
Character: Isaac and Miria
Reason for Echo: Blood Key encounter
Type and tier: Tier 2, Memory and ability each
What is returned:
- Both Dians will remember a very significant and stupid event. Upon realizing the hadn't aged or died for about seventy years, the thieving duo came to the rational conclusion that they were being reincarnated.
- Although still not realizing the goddamn obvious, their immortality is still related to this memory. The immortality will extend to the entire lower half of their bodies and their respective non-immortal arms.

[theearth]

Echo approved for both! Please update your info post!

[struckout]

Player: Anduin
Character: Kallie
Reason for Echo: Visiting her mother in the hospital Saturday evening, discussing how Kallie and her father are doing with their honest lack of any real cooking expertise. 8|
Type and tier: Memory, tier 1.
What is returned: A memory of Claire having a similar conversation, before she became 'Lightning.' Somewhat vague and mostly half "my mother was often in the hospital for some reason."

I'm so sorry so many echoes. :(

[centurian]

Player: Kalan
Character: Gerald (Garrus Vakarian)

Reason for Echo: DAMN IT ZIM
Type and tier: Memory, tier 1
What is returned: The memory of a mysterious alien thing named Sovereign that was sent ahead to prepare for a massive alien invasion. The species, and its goals remain unknown to Gerald.

Reason for Echo: Plot: Blood Keys/Snake statue encounter via this log
Type and tier: Item, Tier 2
What is returned: His custom visor, with its super advanced targeting system intact.

unforgivable

[theearth]

Echoes approved! Please update your info post!

Also, if Gerald is encountering both a snake statue and a Blood Key/Skyler, then each will count as their own plot Echo (provided this is the first time he's encountering either)! So you've potentially got another plot Echo to use.

[drama8om8]

Player: Louise
Character: Octavia
Reason for Echo: Wait shit that kind of happens in canon
Type and tier: Tier 1 memory
What is returned: The memory of being Tavrisprite (aka a fusion of herself and Tavros into a ghostgooply mass) for a short length of time before exploding.
