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: Russel Goldman/Raiel
Reason for Echo: Sona giving him a piano lesson. He has never had a piano lesson before or even had access to a piano to attempt to play it.
Type and tier: Item + memory | Tier 2 (justifying Tier 2 on this one because of HOW IMPORTANT piano-playing is to Raiel; his entire identity is basically built around being a magic pianist)
What is returned:
Memory: Pandora teaching him how to play magic music when he was 4 or 5; this will tip him off to his piano-playing as an actual useful skill.
Item: His. Piano.
OKAY LET ME TALK ABOUT THIS MOTHERFUCKIN' PIANO FOR A SECOND.
1) it is solid gold.
2) it weighs 500kg.
6) what are its dimensions? SO inconsistent omg. It's probably about 3ft across and 5ft long judging by how big it's usually drawn in comparison to Raiel.
3) it is waterproofed up to 500 meters (I'M NOT JOKING THIS IS EXPLICITLY STATED IN CANON).
4) it's enchanted with holy magic. what does that mean? hell if i know????? it's never elaborated on; I take it to mean that the piano is basically indestructible, considering the shit it goes through.
5) it has no legs. instead it has backpack straps and a harness that allows him to swing it down into a playing position as necessary.
NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS IS COMPLETELY USELESS TO HIM AT THE MOMENT. It'll just be taking up space in his bedroom until he gets enough strength regain to actually move it around.
