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.

[dyingtohealyou]

Player: Dani
Character: Akito Tanabe / Ahito
Reason for Echo: Run in with the Blood Keys while rescuing kids.
Type and tier: Mental / Tier 2
What is returned: A memory of the death of the little girl he once healed, Mizuki, as a test subject. He does not remember the actual tests she was subject to, only that she died. He does, however, remember that the people behind said tests were his past self's parents. Along with that, he will regain Ahito's deep-seated hatred for his parents.

Desolation of Smaug Spoilers in this comment

[youngestone]

Player: Fae
Character: Killian/Kili
Reason for Echo: This is backdated, but his mother's funeral.
Type and tier: Type one, item
What is returned: The runestone Kili has in DoS, given to him by Dis as a reminder to come home to her. His mother's funeral would have evoked that same sense of missing her the stone is implied to.

[earnedmystripes]

Player: Batty
Character: Kotetsu Kaburagi
Reason for Echo: Barnaby explaining what the NEXT acronym stands for
Type and tier: Mental, tier 1
What is returned: Basic knowledge of NEXTs, including that the sign of a NEXT is the neon-blue glow, that they began to emerge 45 yrs ago but the reason for it is unknown, and if possible, some examples of NEXT powers but not who has them, e.g. knowing that shapeshifting and mindreading are possible NEXT powers, but not that they belonged to Ivan and Jake.

[theearth]

Echo approved - without the definite knowledge of examples of NEXT abilities! Please add relevant data to your info post.

[thebalrogslayer]

Player: Gilbert
Character: Gabriel/Glorfindel
Reason for Echo: Snake statue encounter in this log.
Type and tier: Physical, tier 1
What is returned: Glorfindel's elven eyesight. As he's still deaging to go with his first echo, the immediate effect will be to return his eyesight to it's peak condition when he was a young man, and as he continues to deage it will improve until he's able to make out figures miles away.

Reason for Echo: Blood Keys encounter in the same log. Additionally, being chased while escorting a group of small people to safety would be enough to trigger a reoccurrence by itself.
Type and tier: Memory/physical, tier 2
What is returned: The memory of the Ford of Bruinen: of a white horse with a small figure being chased by black horses into the river, of the river rising and of chasing the riders into the water with others, though the others are indistinct. With this comes some of his elven spirit as Frodo saw in him at the time, enough to make 'evil' beings uneasy around him and 'good' ones (also pure ones; children and animals) more comfortable.

[youngestone]

Player: Fae
Character: Killian/Kili
Reason for Echo: The rescue mission with Blaine for the kids and the fight that goes with that.
Type and tier: Tier one, mental
What is returned: The fighting and everything will start to return Kili's bravery/recklessness to Killian as this is the first time that he's going to be actually fighting and not distracted by his dying mother.

[ladyofluminosity]

Player: Sheepy
Character: Luci Edwards
Reason for Echo: Conversation thread
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: So this one takes a little bit of explaining. With the exception of a few champions (Ezreal being one of them, ironically enough), most of the people that fight in the League of Legends are judged on whether or not they are worthy to fight. Lux is no exception. She will not be remembering what exactly her judgment was, who presided over her judgment, or the memories that she had to relive in order to prove that she was, in fact, worthy, but simply that she was tested, and that she proved that she was up to snuff.

[struckout]

Player: Anduin
Character: Lady Kallsalot Kallie Raydan
Reason for Echo: "What, are you my mom or something?" - Miles Asher
Type and tier: Memory, tier 1.
What is returned: Yep, memory of a similar scene in canon where Hope, asleep, asks after his mom and... Lightning notes to herself it's "not by a long shot."

[detectivetroll]

Player: Bri
Character: Benjamin Ratchet
Reason for Echo: Blood Key encounter
Type and tier: Item | Tier 2
What is returned: The return of his EMP blaster! It will be smaller in scale, obviously, built for a human to handle rather than an Autobot. It's a non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse weapon, and I'd like to make it a Tier 2 echo by upgrading its technology level from human EMPs to Cybertronian EMPs, if that's doable? The range would stay the same (it would affect only one target, or a small number of targets closely grouped together), and would still need to recharge for about half an hour or so between blasts, but the EMP blasts would be geared towards affecting not only human, but also alien technology.


Character: Nick Burkhardt
Reason for Echo: Farmhouse investigation
Type and tier: Item | Tier 1
What is returned: A Siegbarste Gewehr with a round of ammo, but no fancy Siegbarste Gift to dip the bullets in.


Character: Nick Burkhardt
Reason for Echo: Blood Key encounter
Type and tier: Physical/Ability | Tier 1
What is returned: Partial return of his Grimm fitness (speed, strength, endurance, reflexes, and agility) - nothing above human ability right now, but more than his current state, about on par with Olympic athletes, or other individuals who've spent a lifetime making sure they're in peak physical condition and in the best of health.

[honestopinion]

Player: church
Character: Jamie (Jean)
Reason for Echo: A thread with Marzio.
Type and tier: Memory 1
What is returned: The name Marco brings back not only an emotionally simulating sense of warmth but also fear, panic, and loss. This person must have been very connected with his past life (Jean.)

[stagnantair]

Player: nor
Character: Gavin Davis/Gale
Reason for Echo: Fighting Blood Keys
Type and tier: Tier 2, Physical and Memory
What is returned:

Due to fighting the Blood Keys and also just fighting "the bad guys" in general with guns like he does in canon, I'd like Gavin to Echo back his Asura form partially. Like we discussed here it would only be partial strength and it would wane after possible eating a Blood Key member and attempting to eat Luke. He'd pass out and revert back to human form. Also like we discussed, after shifting into Vayu the first time he'll know his base skill set. He won't use them the first time or even know about them, but he will have the ability to know those moves.

Player: nor
Character: Gavin Davis/Gale
Reason for Echo: Fighting the Blood Keys because his friends have been injured by them and he feels pretty vengeance-y.
Type and tier: Tier 1, ....Physical?? Feeling??
What is returned: Like when Lupa dies in canon, Gale vows to avenge him and that Angel will pay and etc. Because of this parallel, I'd like Gavin to lose most if not all of his emotions (if slowly over time that's okay but I'd like it to start now.)

[flamberge]

Player: Olga
Character: Karl Aurion
Reason for Echo: Lloyd calling Karl a traitor.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: This conversation, just with the word Mom being inaudible.

[sly_fox]

Player: Clari
Character: Hannah Lorenson/Helen
Reason for Echo: Hannah has a run-in with a member of the Blood Keys, and she's forced to fight them off.
Type and tier: Physical, Tier 1.
What is returned: Hannah's enhanced strength will return to her.

[theearth]

At Hannah's level, she would not be able to fight off a Blood Key. However, she doesn't need to get into a fight with a Blood Key to gain an Echo from them, simply walking past one will do.

Please let us know if that scenario is acceptable or if you'd like to propose an alternate one of your own!

[songoftimeandtimeagain]

Player: Zack
Character: Luke
Reason for Echo: Gavin turning into a weird plant(??) monster with a head full of teeth. The mouth in particular (especially when aimed at him) resembles a deku baba.
Type and tier: Tier 1 Item
What is returned: His bag of deku nuts. The bag carries 20, and they produce a flash of light when thrown. This can be used to stun enemies for a short length of time. Although these technically work on bosses in game, I think it would be better if they were limited to only working on human sized things or smaller.

[drama8om8]

Player: Ken
Character: Lily
Reason for Echo: Meeting Winter's fair, Raquel, after managing to miss him for weeks. This is being done slightly in advance.
Type and tier: Type 1, Memory
What is returned: Memory of Yuri's fairy partner, Cologne. Specifically, of BEING her fairy partner and best friend at some point in her life.

[envisaging]

Player: Lucy! I spent way too long thinking about these.

Character: Aria/Aradia Megido
Reason for Echo: Christmas trinket.
Type and tier: Item drop.
What is returned: This random music box. It's not from her game planet or anything, it's just an old-looking music box.

Character: Sophie Bai/Toph Beifong
Reason for Echo: Christmas trinket.
Type and tier: Item drop.
What is returned: THIS LOVELY POSTER that she can't read or see, uh. :| THANKS. It's just a missing/wanted poster for Toph, and shouldn't trigger anything for her. If she ever gets castmates, they might get something from it, but she'd just end up tacking it to her wall once her parents describe it. "oh my angry face, sweet, okay".

Character: Sierra Callahan/Serah Farron
Reason for Echo: Christmas trinket.
Type and tier: Item drop.
What is returned: A crystal rose ("An elegant crystal grown in the shape of a rose."); it's something known as an adornment, and is one of the ones that wouldn't trigger anything in particular, except "oh, that's pretty".

Character: Sierra Callahan/Serah Farron
Reason for Echo: Debating ethics with a ferret. Namely, it led her to say "I'd never suggest anyone lie back and wait to die" when trying to defend her point of view.
Type and tier: Memory, 1.
What is returned: Noel jumping in front of her when she's about to be attacked; he says to her "One more thing...Don't ever lay down and wait to die!"

Character: Sierra Callahan/Serah Farron
Reason for Echo: I'd like her to pass by a Blood Key member on the street, if possible? :|a Because I'd really like the following:
Type and tier: Ability, 1
What is returned: Cure. I just want her to have that spell. :|

Character: Sierra Callahan/Serah Farron LOOK, SHE HAD LIKE 3 BEFORE THIS.
Reason for Echo: Evelyn/Zelda's post about having a dream unlike normal dreams, which she thinks predicts the future.
Type and tier: Memory, 1.
What is returned: Hey, Serah's had a weird dream before, too, predicting (or seeing) something that was going to happen to her. The one in question I'm interested in is the dream she has of Lightning sending Noel through the gate, at the start of FF13-2.

[hawaiianheir]

Player: Mon
Character: Mac Kapule
Reason for Echo: Kotetsu talking about acquiring super-strength and crushing metal.
Type and tier: Ability, Tier 1
What is returned: His own, much lower-caliber enhanced strength. Which brings with it the ability to wield sledgehammers one-handed with ease, and probably enough to lift up a heavy-duty safe, as though he never did this, it was implied it was possible for John to do so.

[betroth]

Player: kou
Character: chloe weiss (christa/historia)
Reason for Echo: 3DMG TRAINING YEAH
Type and tier: tier 2, physical+ability.
What is returned: from seeing others practice with the gear in person, and practicing herself, chloe is going to regain her ability to properly use her own gear, along with the overall physical fortitude necessary to do so without injuring herself. (muscle memory, spatial awareness, etc.)

Character: harper sutherland (kanade minamino)
Reason for Echo: lily's post, mentioning precure.
Type and tier: tier 1, memory.
What is returned: the memory of the precure being legendary warriors who protected the world from sadness. she won't remember she was one, but she will have a very strong draw towards the concept.
