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.

The first Echo is approved! Please add relevant data to your info post!

However, on the second, we'd like to request an alternative Echo. On one hand we worry that an instant clean getaway may be too disproportionate of an advantage for the current level of threat, even taking into account the threat in the mines - and on the other, in the situation in which it would be expected to occur, it might even hinder him; it may be a bit of a fix to have him phase through a cave wall and pass out in a chamber alone someplace!

Was more thinking it would be hauling him up to the surface and then him kinda wobbling away like a drunk at 4 am to safety from there. [or really, considering Bakura, trying to get back down there to help his friends because he's an idiot]

So I guess I'll just put it on pause to think of a different one once the log gets going since everything is still in vague non-spoilering terms so I'm not sure what level of threat to expect? Mostly was thinking this one for a good way to get him the heck out without major injury since he doesn't really have any skills to get him out of bad situations yet and it sounded like it was going to get pretty bad.

Understood - we'll stay sharp to process the selected Echo posthaste when the time comes, and apologies for the inconvenience!

So, think I'll instead go for Diabound being able to be physical again for short periods of time, again with it leaving Bakura kinda wiped out after. This should help get the gang out of the cave and not be something he's going to use much because it's a huge drain on his Baa at this stage of the game.

We're really sorry for the delay, but we're afraid we're going to have to reject that request. Diabound is the game's first summoned being, and as such, its powers need to be limited enough to keep things fair for the other players. When the Echo was first granted, it was with the stipulation that it would be a long time before it could do anything else, and we don't feel that the time or current tone of the game is right for Diabound to regain abilities.

We apologize again for the delay, and that we aren't bringing better news.

No worries! As someone else has gotten the gang out of the cave, no need for it anyway :D

So gonna instead request spoken Egyptian as a useless echo instead!

Echo approved! Go ahead and add the relevant info to your Info Post!
