Echo Requests (retired)
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.

Character: Miles/Hope
Reason for Echo: Sophie calling his abilities "magic".
What is returned: A feeling of unease about magic in general. When Hope first started out as a l'Cie, he really didn't like his new magic powers and was happy to let the adults do all the fighting for him in the beginning. Miles for his part never thought of it as "magic" because he's a science kid and science =/= magic.
Reason for Echo: The Echo GDoc linked to him. Specifically the entry with the images of the red rose crystal and the sword.
What is returned: Lightning. Basically her name, real name (Claire Farron) and that she was/is his best goddamn friend and mother-sister-figure and she's the best damn thing ever okay. Because he's seen that crystal loads of times as Hope and while the sword looks strange, it is unmistakably a gunblade, which is Lightning's signature weapon.
Reason for Echo: Again that echo gdoc. Specifically the entry about a jungle with monsters.
What is returned: The Sunleth Waterscape. Not the name, but what it looks like, that it is indeed full of monsters, and that he'd been there before. Hope had been there on a school trip, even if he never visited it in-game. And yes, it is indeed full of monsters, but school officials probably led the kids through a safe area with none.
Reason for Echo: Again that echo gdoc. The entry of a pearl coming out of someone's body compounded with the sight of the rose crystal.
What is returned: Ability to manifest his eidolith. It comes out of the back of his left wrist. He wont know what the hell it is or what to do with it, and it'd be useless if he tried doing things with it anyway.
