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.

Bulking up on Echos while season 1 lasts

Player: Zack
Character: Luke/Link

A bunch of these will be retroactive as they supposedly happened in this log.

Reason for Echo 1: Snake Statue encounter.
Type and tier: Tier 1 Memory.
What is returned: Memories of the Dodongo's Cavern and receiving Goron's ruby.

Reason for Echo 2: Fighting a snake statue since it resembles the lizalfos that guard the bomb bag chest.
Type and tier: Tier 2 Item.
What is returned: The Bomb Bag. Can hold 10 bombs, and bombs are added to the list of possible spawning items when he cuts grass/breaks pots. They will only drop rarely.

Reason for Echo 3: Gavin trying to eat him whole.
Type and tier: Tier 1 Memory.
What is returned: Memories of Jabu Jabu's belly and getting the Zora Sapphire.

Reason for Echo 4: Playing JRPGs with Jamie, and arguing over what armor to give the character. (flipping back and forth between outfits)
Type and tier: Tier 1 Ability(?)
What is returned: The concept of an inventory screen. Luke won't be able to see it or anything like that, but he will be able to 'equip' and 'unequip' his echoed items as he would in game. When unequipped, the items will not be able to be retrieved by anyone except Luke. When equipped, the items in question are on his person somewhere, pockets/backpack/clipped to belt or pants. When he echos back the Zora Goron and Kokiri tunics, he will be able to switch between them instantaneously, he will not however be able to put back on regular clothing instantly, and will have to go retrieve his previous normal outfit from wherever he originally put it on.

Re: Echo 4 YES it would be. His video game experience prior to this has entirely been beat em ups, platformers, and racing games.

OH AND I FORGOT CHRISTMAS ARE WE STILL ALLOWED TO REQUEST THOSE?

Player: Zack
Character: Luke/Link
Reason for Echo: XMAS GIFTING
Type and tier: TIER ONE ITEM
What is returned: A BAG OF DEKU NUTS When thrown at the ground they make a flash/pop and they stun enemies but only for like 2 seconds? They probably won't work on humans, only on monster type things. Technically they work on bosses, but we can just ignore that and say only small to medium sized baddies are effected.

How about some magic beans? Since Luke won't ACTUALLY be travelling 7 years into the future and, beans wouldn't grow into anything useful even if he had a place to plant them, which he doesn't. They'd just be 10 colorful beans. That are apparently magic, but don't actually do anything.
