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.

Player: Mini
Character: Alexander Varista
Reason for Echo: Following the buzzing to Turning Towers.
Type and tier: Physical, tier 2.
What is returned: His conditional immortality. Decapitation*, drowning, complete incineration, and stabbing him in the heart with a hawthorn stake are the four ways to permanently kill him.

*In his app, this is typoed as "decapacitation." I just noticed, oops.

[theearth]

Decapitatioooooon...

[whiterabbit_dot_obj]

Player: Leriel
Character: Barnaby Brooks Jr
Reason for Echo: Seeing the lights
Type and tier: Item, Tier 1
What is returned: His ring!


Reason for Echo: Following the buzzing to Tuning Towers
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: Audio-only memory of his parents telling him that they'll always protect him, and that they hope he'll protect others. (Specifically, his mother says "We're going to protect you forever," followed by his father saying "And we want you to become someone who's kind and willing to protect others.") He won't remember who exactly said this to him, though.

[counterclock]

Player: u00
Character: Avery
Reason for Echo: Pink shit in the sky
Type and tier: Physical, Tier 1
What is returned: Second stage of this, Dave's speed.

Reason for Echo: Wow those towers sure are a thing (thanks Mac :\ )
Type and tier: Mental, Tier 1
What is returned: So Dave's music taste is a huge part of his character. He is openly obsessed with composing rap and electronic music; he learned DJing from his brother and most of his fighting weapons are actually DJ equipment fused with weapons. Also, he has a record on his shirt. Music is his thing. Would like his music taste, please.

Thankus!

Also random question, hope you don't mind me asking it here. Can normals see the light in the sky?

[argents]

Player: kou
Character: banagher links
Reason for Echo: pink lights!
Type and tier: memory/ability, tier 2
What is returned: this memory, speaking of lights. the memory of piloting the unicorn to haul an entire spaceship into orbit. the things that will stand out most to him are the, 'return to the sky, banagher' line, and the light itself, which he described as 'warm' later on.

and to tie into it, the ability to sense the deceased along with the living, as the next step of his newtype development. the two figures who appeared before the light show were two pilots banagher had witnessed die -- one who sacrificed himself for him, and one who he accidentally shot down himself. he won't be able to use their souls or willpower for anything like in the memory, where the psycoframe of his gundam helped him turn those into physical energy, but if there end up being any ghosties hanging about, he'll start to be able to realize they're there, as he currently does with normal people.

It's never separate from actually being a Shadow, so it's a little hard to say. Aigis could sense Shadows and got a really bad feeling from Ryoji (Pharos except older and more human) but couldn't figure out why, but even then Ryoji is still part Shadow.

If we go the Tier 2 route (which might just be easier), what it would mean for Phillip right now is that he'd show up as non-human on other people's radar, if we ever get a Minako (or even Minato) he'll be MORE drawn to her/him than he would have been otherwise, and he'd been drawn to people with negative emotions. After this he'll starting Echoing back some of the lack of caring/emotion that comes from being a little tiny bit human buuuut mostly Shadow, but for now he'll still be cheerful little boy.

[espigeonage]

ETA: Also, since the specifics of this timescale are pure speculation, I'm open to it taking longer if that better fits the need.

Player: Azi
Character: John Mitchell

Reason for Echo: Seeing the pink light.
Type and tier: Tier 2, memory and ability.
What is returned: John will remember a certain hospital stay during which he ends up feeding off of an old love in order to heal from (and therefore survive) being staked in the chest and then proceeds to angst over it, despite said former love interest giving herself up to him freely. As for the ability, he will be regaining some of his former healing ability--just enough to patch up flesh wounds. His healing is not instantaneous, but it is noticeably faster than that of a normal human.

Reason for Echo: Coming home and seeing that Anthony has become a very definite zombie, instead of just a kid who is probably really sickly.
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory.
What is returned: He remembers Sasha, a zombie who ended up on his doorstep one night after following his flatmate Annie, who had been out for a stroll in the bar/clubbing district. John won't really remember much beyond that aside from the fact that he was hit on by a zombie.

Reason for Echo: Following the buzzing to the tuning towers.
Type and tier: Tier 1, item.
What is returned: Once upon a time, a young woman he turned into a vampire was forced to make what essentially amounts to vampire porn and said porn eventually ended up being watched by Mitchell. John will be getting that dvd and all the vampire-y porn contained within.

Sorry for asking for so many at once!

[dododo]

Player: Toss
Character: The Doctor/John Smith
Reason for Echo: Seeing the lights
Type and tier: Item, Tier 1
What is returned: The outer shell of the TARDIS. The doors won't be able to be opened as he doesn't have the key, and even if they could be, it would be empty inside. For now.

[theearth]

Tier 2 sounds like a good bet - and if you're sure you don't mind going for it, with that, Echo approved! You're clear to go forth and update your info!

[aetos]

Player: Carmen
Character: Ramirez/Roy Sellers
Reason for Echo: Seeing the pink lights
Type and tier: Physical Change, Tier 1
What is returned: His Silver Moon Crystal. Given that he has no magical power to amplify, all it will essentially do is be stuck in his fist and noticeably hurt when removal is attempted.

[testsonseashells]

Player: g-man
Character: Mordin Solus
Reason for Echo: Pink lights
Type and tier: Tier 1 Memory
What is returned: Mordin will recover the memory of the Omega clinic, mostly its appearance and populace (namely, several species of aliens).

Character: Roxy Kurosawa
Reason for Echo: Pink lights
Type and tier: Tier 1 Ability
What is returned: Roxy will be able to create pumpkins out of thin air.

[theearth]

The very notion strikes me as absurd.

All the same, Echoes approved! Please update your info accordingly.

[struckout]

Player: Anduin
Character: Kallie / Lightning
Reason for Echo: Once again gazing upon some mysterious pink lights in the night sky (...while holding this thing).
Type and tier: Power/ability; tier 2
What is returned:
Part 1- Her 'Galestrike' ability from FFXIII-2. Essentially this is an air-based magic attack that is specifically stated to do physical damage; whenever she strikes at something with a weapon, it causes a flurry of wind that may also cut into the target once strong enough (in addition to, you know, blowing everything around in front of her). As with her Thunder spells, this will slooowly grow in potential strength over time and/or with each magic-y Echo she gains in the future.
Part 2- A little bit of basic sword-smarts to help her with the above and that gunblade she already has. Of course... said gunblade is still too heavy for her, so she continues to be sort of out of luck. She could probably use a regular sword or a pool noodle or whatever, but this new inherent skill will still be gunblade-based so yeah.

[theearth]

Echo approved! Proceed with the info update!

[moarnomsplz]

Player: ellie
Character: Ax / Alex
Reason for Echo: following the buzzing + canon echo
Type and tier: physical/mental / tier 2
What is returned: To hit when Alex and Julien follow the buzzing, Julien gets sick, and they have to be quarantined: a memory and physical echo from The Sickness, where Ax was afflicted with an Andalite disease that caused him to lose control of his morphing, and eventually required brain surgery. Since Alex is still mostly human, it will be toned down to a severe case of the flu, with a high fever and delirium, but the lack of control over morphing will still be in effect. Since this can be a double whammy due to the event, can he also get his stalk eyes when the illness first hits? (Like the tail, he'll eventually be able to control when they appear, but not at first.)
