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.

[metalbent]

Player: Lucy
Character: Sophie/Toph Bei Fong
Reason for Echo: Talking to Kotetsu about his crushing metal with his bare hands
Type and tier: Ability/memory, tier 2
What is returned: The memory of breaking her way out of the metal box she got put in when captured to go back to her parents, as well as level 1 metalbending. She's never had a tier 2, so she's clear to have one this month, I think. :|b

[pheromonecoffee]

Player: Eren
Character: Minato Arisato/Matthias
Reason for Echo: Phillip being a creepy little shit and staring at him while he's asleep until he wakes up.
Type and tier: Memory/Ability Tier 2
What is returned: The memory of Rank 1 of the Death Social Link As featured here.
Also the ability to form social links. Matt has literally zero clue what that means though. It'll just pop up during random interactions as a "mysterious voice" in his head telling him that it ranked up and generally confusing the shit out of him. They are literally zero use to him right now because he has no Persona.

[summit]

Player: Shikki
Character: Travis Martin/Tavros Nitram
Reason for Echo: Seeing Aria's FLARP manual
Type and tier: Memory/Item, Tier 2
What is returned: Building on his first echo, remembering this exchange (to 004076), and understanding the context of why he contacted CG. Along with those memories, the costume he's wearing comes along with it. He's never had a tier 2 before so i think it should be good!

[darkhourdear]

Player: Bookie
Character: Phillip Santorini/Pharos
Reason for Echo: Matt calling him 'Pharos'
Type and tier: Memory, tier 1
What is returned: WHY YES THAT IS HIS NAME. Or at least, the name of the guy he was. Specifically, he recalls asking Minako to be his friend and introducing himself.

[amberhearted]

Player: Mini
Character: Alexander Varista
Reason for Echo: Practicing swordplay with Anthony using his preincarnation's sword.
Type and tier: Physical, tier 1.
What is returned: Muscle memory of his preincarnation's ability to wield a sword. Average skill.

[theboywiththebook]

Player: Chris
Character: Henry Cassidy/Mills
Reason for Echo: They mentioned leaving Locke City makes you lose your memories of the network.
Type and tier: Mental Tier 1
What is returned: This whole scene. Henry will remember that in the town he apparently used to live in people would lose their memories when leaving it.

[amberhearted]

Player: Mini
Character: Alexander Varista
Reason for Echo: Conversing with Reilanin about leaving the city over drinks.
Type and tier: Mental, tier 1.
What is returned: Conversing with Ravindra about leaving the city over drinks.

[darkcharge]

Player: Sire
Character: Van Kururugi || Vanitas
Reason for Echo: stupid brothers with kendo swords
Type and tier: item/memory tier 2
What is returned: Hasn't had a tier 2 yet, so sure. Picking up something that's clearly a weapon ( sword, specifically ) should have flashes of holding Vanitas' Void Gear - nothing precise, but random instances of it in his hand. I would also like for the Void Gear to make a reappearance - not summonable. Just... there.

[goldenclothes]

Player: Myf
Character: Reilanin Bainbridge
Reason for Echo: Being tackled and pinned down by Hajime when she escapes Lyall's house during the full moon.
Type and tier: Memory, tier 1
What is returned: Being contricted and pinned down by a dragon when she escapes the Golden Hour during the full moon.

[wonk]

Player: kappy
Character: Roxy Lalonde
Reason for Echo: snake attack
Type and tier: tier 2
What is returned: contractual immortality - unless Roxy's death is Heroic or Just, she will resurrect in rainbow fire - and permanent intangibility

a side note: these echoes will not kick in until she is killed by a snake statue.

[idealofhope]

Player: Jeff
Character: Calvin Kent (Clark Kent)
Reason for Echo: Plot-related, encountering snakes at a group meeting.
Type and tier: Ability, tier 2
What is returned:
First Tier: Calvin will gain back some of his preincarnation's Kryptonian physiology and ability to absorb and store solar energy. His senses will become slightly sharper, his body will become slightly stronger and tougher and he'll have more stamina from being able to absorb solar energy, but none of this will be particularly absurd by human standards.
Second Tier: A low level of heat vision. He'll be able to release concentrated bursts of solar energy in the form of beams fired from his eyes. The toughness of his eyes will dramatically increase to be able to withstand the heat, but still only to the point where he'll only be able to use the ability offensively for very short bursts.

Reason for Echo: Plot-related, confronting a group of Blood Keys who roughed up Arthur's grandmother.
Type and tier: Ability, tier 1
What is returned: A low level of super speed. He'll be able to run and jump at supersonic speeds for short bursts and his reaction time will increase appropriately. His body's durability will increase slightly to handle the stress of moving at supersonic speeds, but using it in more than short, concentrated bursts will still put more stress on him than he'll be able to handle.

Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence caused by getting shot at by Blood Keys in the aforementioned confrontation because, come on, what'd they expect to happen?
Type and tier: Memory, tier 1
What is returned: A memory of him seeing a really big military jet about to shoot him with a very big gun, then him leaping out of the way as fast as possible to avoid being shot. (Seen here starting at the 0:10 mark). In the linked log, this will have a muscle memory sort of effect, instinctively triggering the realization that he can move at supersonic speeds.

[vanisland]

Player: Awe
Character: Miranda Atmiller/Mir
Reason for Echo: Plot: WHOOPS INCOMING STATUES AT THE MEETING. She still hasn't seen on.
Type and tier: Tier 2 / Physical + Item
What is returned: Two things: One is the rest of Mir's Reyvateil body, which is a little shorter than her current human one but also neccessitates the second thing: the rest of the framework that enables Song Magic (it basically looks like a giant, oddly designed antenna), attached to the SH server that's still at her house, without which she would not live. (Speaking of the SH server, it'll find her Reyvateil body really quickly and copy Miranda's psyche into it as I think was discussed when I applied for that echo.)

This will enable her to use the Hymns she has currently learned as well as any she'll pick up - extremely strong emotions can cause Song Magic to be created spontaneously (although only Aurica demonstrates this ability in the series, and it's implied that it's very, VERY difficult to pull off) - this may result in Miranda learning some magic that Mir did not have in canon.

[drama8om8]

Player: Louise
Character: Octavia
Reason for Echo: OH SHIT SON GONNA FIGHT SOME SNAKE STATUES
Type and tier: Tier 2 item/ability
What is returned: Her God Tier ability to steal the luck from her enemies and keep it for herself (I'm cool with this being powered down considerably, since in canon it makes her foes so unlucky the floor collapses beneath their feet and they die - in StE, I'm thinking it'd be less godmodey to have her steal half an enemy's luck? So they'll be at a disadvantage and Octavia will gain a boost, but it's not an INSTANT WIN button).
She'll also get her bright orange God Tier outfit/"godhoodie".

[dominateartimus]

Player: Joc
Character: Sandrath / Xander Jarle
Reason for Echo: Encountering a snake statue at a group meeting to deal with an alien and the statues.
Type and tier: 2, physical/ability
What is returned: A bit more of Sandrath's immortality, tied to a second form that resides inside of him. If one or several limbs or vital organs are removed, he can still function normally. The only draw back from this is that whatever injuries he's sustained will be replaced by a black, completely featureless 'second skin' with flickers of white that appear from time to time.
(If this isn't enough for a tier two, please let me know.)

[envisaging]

Player: Lucy!
Character: Sierra Callahan/Serah Farron
Reason for Echo: SNAKES ATTACKING A SUPPOSEDLY SAFE MEETING? She has never had a snake echo.
Type and tier: Ability, Tier 2
What is returned: Esuna and Curasa both, furthering my goal to have her find a useful niche by healing stuff. :|b She's never had a tier-2, so she should be in the clear for a January one.

Character: Sophie Bai/Toph Beifong
Reason for Echo: Feeling out the snakes coming.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: Remembering feeling an oncoming ambush when walking with Aang in her family's garden. GREAT.

Character: Sophie Bai/Toph Beifong
Reason for Echo: She actually hasn't been around a snake statue since the capture, SO.
Type and tier: Ability, Tier 1
What is returned: Let's move up to like, Level 2 earthbending. :|b More intermediate-y than before.

Character: Aria/Aradia Megido
Reason for Echo: ALSO hasn't seen a snake since Proud's capture.
Type and tier: Ability, Tier 1
What is returned: Next level up of telekinesis, which going by other people's use of it, would be up to and including her own body weight. ...So like 115 - 120 pounds.

[hawaiianheir]

Player: Mon
Character: Mac Kapule
Reason for Echo: ALARM, SNAKE FIGHT SNAKE FIGHT
Type and tier: Tier 1 Ability
What is returned: The next stage of his Breath powers - Mac will be able to consciously control his powers. He'll be able to command strong gusts of wind (enough to unstable a person, most likely), shape wind currents into attacks (he once turned a tornado into a giant planetary drill - obviously he won't be able to do that), and be able to use his turn into wind ability on a conscious level, though with limitations - he'll only be able to move about 30 feet or so before needing to reconstitute himself.

[waltharius]

Player: Zae
Character: Walter
Reason for Echo: SNAKE STATUE SHOWDOWN
Type and tier: Tier 2, creature/memory
What is returned: A HORSE, OF COURSE. Wander's incredibly loyal steed Agro + a memory of the horse. Specifically, her name and that she was his horse.

[fridayisyellow]

Player: Ace
Character: Annika / Haruhi
Reason for Echo: Christmas
Type and tier: Item, 1
What is returned: A cd game she played in one episode.

Reason for Echo: Blood Keys
Type and tier: Item, 1
What is returned: Her yellow hairband.

Reason for Echo: Snake Statues at the meeting.
Type and tier: Ability, 1
What is returned: Speaking Japanese

[shiromadoushi]

Player: Fran
Character: Bakura 3x
Reason for Echo: Snake Party in the basement!
Type and tier: 1, memory
What is returned: Memory of Thief King dissolving into sand while Yami Bakura tells the Pharaoh that the world around them is just a game made from memories, memories that he's a pawn of.

[yerawizarderi]

Player: Zorn
Character:Eri/Eridan Ampora
Reason for Echo: Octavia was trying to trigger an echo by saying Vriska's name.
Type and tier: Memory tier 1
What is returned: The memory that Vriska is Eri's past-life ex-girlfriend

[italktofish]

Player: Airdra
Character: Arthur Curry/Aquaman
Reason for Echo: He's at the meeting that's getting attacked by snakes.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Aquaman's vocabulary! He'll now be using phrases like "Great Atlantis!" and "Jumping jellyfish!" and so on and so forth. Basically, his vocabulary's getting a lot more nautical and cheesy.

Reason for Echo: Arthur and Calvin are going to run into some Blood Keys in this log. Arthur has not come face-to-face with a Blood Key before.
Type and tier: Tier 2, ability.
What is returned: Arthur will become partially adapted for surviving at the crushing depths of the ocean, which is a big explanation of many of his superpowers. He will not getting back all his abilities from this, but he will be getting two significant ones: super strength and some measure of invulnerability. His super strength will top out at "able to lift a car," and his invulnerability would cap out around someone shooting him with a high-powered rifle causing only a bit of bruising as opposed to insta-dead. (If this is too much for a single Tier 2, I am perfectly willing to split these two things between the snake echo and this one.)

[alilyinthemoonslight]

Player: Ken
Character: Lily Tsukuyomi
Reason for Echo: Snake statues when they pop up HERE.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Item
What is returned: The Heart Pot, Lily's final component needed for transforming into Cure Moonilght.

Which, with the ability, Precure Seed, and knowledge of how to transform already obtained, should mean she can assume Moonlight's base form once it's in her hands.

[professorwolf]

Player: Gail
Character: Lyall
Reason for Echo: The snake statues crashing Elian's place.
Type and tier: Physical, tier 1.
What is returned: The extension of his ability to transform into a wolf so that now he can do it at will or in automatic response to threats, so long as the sun is down. He will only keep his mind if he is not frightened, angry, hungry, or in danger-- so pretty much not at all at this point. More fine control over his wolf self will come in further echoes.

[sugarslice]

Player: Mini
Character: Angeline Strauss/Stocking Anarchy
Reason for Echo: Plot - encounter with the snake statues.
Type and tier: Mental + physical, tier 2.
What is returned: 1) The memory of her (nsfw) transformation sequence, and 2) the transformation sequence itself (music, disco lights, and pole included).

Reason for Echo: Removing a stocking with the intent of using it as a sword (as she'd remembered in her transformation Echo.)
Type and tier: Mental, tier 1.
What is returned: Ability to turn stockings into swords.

Reason for Echo: Using her stocking-sword (Stripe).
Type and tier: Mental, tier 1.
What is returned: Stocking's skill with swords.

-----------------------

Character: Alexander Varista
Reason for Echo: Plot - encounter with the snake statues.
Type and tier: Mental + physical, tier 2.
What is returned: 1) The memory of being overwhelmed by bloodlust in a tavern and struggling to control it, and 2) the ability to hear pulses if he focuses on them. I forgot to include that in his app, but it's referred to in this and this log. The range limit of this ability was never decided, but I'll go with the max distance being the length of a larger than average room (ie the size of the tavern in which his bloodlust shot up).

Character: Anthony
Reason for Echo: Snake statue attack at the meeting at Elian's.
Type and tier: Tier 1 - Mental.
What is returned: Memory of the fight with the Horror.

Character: Bill Black (Walter Beck)
