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.

Player: Louise
Character: Octavia
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence! As soon as word breaks about the Blood Keys, she's going to sneak out at night and go looking for members of the gang with Alan. They'll be catching them alone or in pairs, mind controlling them into dropping their weapons, then forcing them to run away (with the understanding that unless they actually see the blood keys killing someone, they're to be left alive).
This directly parallels Vriska's FLARPing exploits in canon: she and her teammate went after other FLARP teams, defeated them, and reaped the loot/exp spoils. They had an agreement not to kill the other players by feeding them to Vriska's mom unless they were wicked evildoers - to quote Terezi, they "W3R3 SUPPOS3D TO B3 L1K3 4 V1G1L4NT3 DUO D1SP3NS1NG JUST1C3."
Type and tier: Tier 2, memory/item
What is returned: The memory as recounted above - being part of a vigilante FLARP duo called Team Scourge. Along with this, Tavia will also receive the weapon she used for all her FLARP escapades: the Fluorite Octet. This will make the sword she already echoed back disappear, as discussed in a previous echo request. 8V
Reason for Echo: Plot echo, for the act of encountering the Blood Keys!
Type and tier: Tier 1 memory
What is returned: This memo.
If the recurrence isn't okay as a tier 2 (I'm assuming it is BUT STILL), I'm fine with having her plot echo be the Fluorite Octet and getting rid of the memo. 83
