Echo Requests

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.

As of November 2014, Characters who have had their echoes for over a year can cause echoes in other people This is involuntary, cannot be controlled by either character and doesn't require a recurrence. The receiving character must have 15 echoes or less; they must be physically close to the other character; only tier 1 echoes can be caused that way; one cannot give themselves echoes. Both players must, of course, have consented to this oocly. A character can receive echoes through this mechanic no more than 10 times, and only up to 3 times from the same character. If requesting one of these echoes, please indicate the character from which the echo was received.

Reason for Echo: What caused the Echo, whether it be by a plot-related trigger, a person 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: Lisa
Character: Weenie Fenton
Reason for Echo: babby's first teleport
Type and tier: tier 1, ability
What is returned: GHOST BIOLOGY 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO, it's gonna get a little weirder and Danny will be able to stretch his body/separate it a little further for longer, and in more extreme ways. Like...remember that scene from the second Harry Potter movie where the bones in Harry's arms were just gone and it was all floppy and pliant? Danny will be able to do that. Pretzel arms go.

Reason for Echo: babby's first cultists
Type and tier: tier 1, ability
What is returned: GHOST BIOLOGY 3: SON OF GHOST BIOLOGY. Building off the last one, he'll be able to just. straight up. pop off limbs. And then reattach them later, no big. Basically just taking the "he can separate parts of himself for a few moments" part of his powerset and amplifying it.

Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Echo recurrence/familiarity
Type and tier: Tier 1, mental/kind of a memory but more a sense of familiarity and knowledge?
What is returned: While talking with Anthony (the other Anthony hurr) the subject of priests being possessed came up, thus sparking a general sense of understanding and familiarity with that sort of thing. Possessions, specifically. Not a direct memory exactly more a sense of one if that makes sense?

Player: Kira
Character: Thorir / Thorin II Oakenshield

Reason for Echo: Deeply doubting the non-numbered as a whole (mostly their ability to be reasoned with and be reasonable).
Type and tier: 1, mental
What is returned: An extension of echo 15: Thorir now shares Thorin's feelings on humans.

Reason for Echo: Forcefully claiming the Lonely Mountain as "his" for the first time.
Type and tier: 1, mental
What is returned: Thorin's drive to reclaim the mountain.

Player: Gilbert
Character: Gabriel/Glorfindel
Reason for Echo: Ice bucket challenge -> being drenched in ice cold water for the first time. He's been swimming in cold lakes, but it's the first time he's specifically dumped something on his head because it's close to freezing
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability
What is returned: Elven ability to deal with extremes of temperatures. He'll barely notice temperatures between 0-40 celsius, and above or below that it would start to affect him on the same scale before (ie, -25c would feel about 0c to him, 50c would feel about 35c. He'll be better protected against extreme cold than heat: he would still burn if exposed to extreme heat or touches something hot and frostbite would still affect him if the temperature gets low enough.

This is a preemptive request: I plan to post him doing the ice bucket challenge tomorrow and I want to know if I can have him echoing it back during that. I know I haven't left much leeway and if you can't get back to me about it before then I'll go ahead without it!

Player: Tai
Character: Hjalti Thorsson/Dwalin
Reason for Echo: Getting into a debate/argument with Killian about Dwalin's failure to protect Thorin, Fíli, and Kíli and how they died in their old lives (since he knows about that from his funeral echo from last month) and about how he's damn well not letting that happen again because family.
Type and tier: Tier 1, personality
What is returned: Dwalin's intense protectiveness over the Line of Durin, Thorin first but also definitely including Fíli and Kíli in that since they're the collective proteges of the older generation, and a little bit towards any other dwarves that may pop up in the future.

drama8om8: (Shank in my sock)

[personal profile] drama8om8 2014-09-01 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Louise
Character: Octavia
Reason for Echo: Participating in the ice bucket challenge with Alan's help!
Type and tier: Tier 1 memory
What is returned: Buckets are kind of significant to trolls, because they're used in the mating process. Vriska is canonically shown getting flustered when she sees a boy's bucket, and talks about how humans must be weird and have no shame about their ~private pailing habits~.

So uh. I'd like Alan approaching her with a bucket to trigger the memory/feeling that buckets are embarrassing and shameful and she should absolutely not be filmed having one dumped over her head. SO LEWD.

[personal profile] belphe 2014-09-02 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Katie
Character: Belphegor of Sloth//Belle Goldman
Reason for Echo: Ice Bucket Challenge

Type and tier: Tier 1 Memory

What is returned: When the Seven Sisters of Purgatory are unable to fulfill Ange's demands that they kill her bullying classmates for her, Ange turns her anger on Belphegor and her sisters, using her poisonous thoughts of denial to turn them to glass and shatter them from existence. (I cannot find the english subtitles, but https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=-MsCygtulU4#t=171 here's the scene in question)

I'd like the sudden shock of cold and having the ice shards rain down around her remind Belle of being killed this way, if possible

Player: Mark
Character: Liam Benedict / Legolas

Reason for Echo: This conversation with Gabriel where he mentioned to Liam there there is a mountain in Vegas, it might have a dragon in it, and Thorir (Who Liam already knows to be a Dwarf) wants to claim it.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Liam remembers a piece of the Orc interrogation. Specifically this exchange:

Orc: The Dwarf runt will never be king.
Legolas: King? There is no king under the mountain nor will there ever be. None would enter Erebor whilst the dragon lives.
Orc: You know nothing, your world will burn.

He remembers holding a knife to the Orc (does not know the word "Orc"), and interrogating it. Does not remember who else was in the room at the time, or any more specifics of that conversation.

Well, oops.

Will encountering a Mafiso for the first time still grant echoes?
