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: Miri
Character: Thranduil
Reason for Echo: tiniest echo ever but Julien texted him the phrase There and Back Again.
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory.
What is returned: Of reading the Book of Westmarch and seeing the title page There and Back Again; a hobbits tale by Bilbo Baggins. And remember the name but not anything else. Since this is really a tiny echo.

actually apparently there's a part 2 to this! If this goes past, the following will also happen:

Player: Miri
Character: Thranduil
Reason for Echo: Julien showing him a picture of Bilbo.
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory.
What is returned: The memory of who the hell Bilbo is, though not the whole story. That is, a hobbit who helped end a battle, gave him a large jewel and whom he called elf-friend.

That is a reasonable request.

They don't go into a HUGE amount of detail, but I believe it is a temporary control. He needs to make eye contact to do it, and once he stops focusing on a specific person, they seem to come back to their senses with confused memories of what just happened. Giving a few commands to even ordinary humans seemed to exhaust him to the point of almost collapsing out, so it's probably a fairly significant investment of power to use. Since he never uses it in battle, I'd say it requires the target to not be expecting it AND to not think of him as a threat. Anyone with sufficient magic of their own would be able to resist it.

Any control of PCs would, of course, require the player's permission, and any control of NPCs I would want to clear with the mods.

dead_black_eyes: "Crazy" (Since I was little it looked like fun)

Would it be OK to revise the first echo so that the feeling of familiarity is echoed back, then, rather than seeing the letter?

Oh my thought had been that as the mind honey overloads his psionic power and his telekinesis is one aspect of his psionics they were related, but I can see how that might be too distant a relationship since the honey mostly seems to affect his eye lasers... so yeah if that's too distant I will just take the telekinetic boost. Sorry for the trouble!

Player: Zero
Character: Rachel Roth
Reason for Echo: Wise Snake
Type and tier: Tier 2, ability
What is returned: Portal creation within a limited range (i.e., up to 50 meters at a time). Also her ability to use her soul-self to alter her physical shape - growing in size, her eyes glowing solid red (or a second pair of them appearing), her teeth sharpening to razors, etc.

As with many of Raven's other powers, her demonic transformation ability is linked to her emotional state. If she's pushed too far and becomes too angry to keep herself under control, she may lash out and change. Examples here and here.

Character: Cain Hashimoto
Reason for Echo: Wise Snake
Type and tier: Tier 2, ability
What is returned: Two things. First, Messiah Card 07 is implanted within his body's program. Second, the extra necessary data copied from Red Buster, allowing him to transform into Dark Buster. This form is implied to bring much greater upgrades to Enter's physical abilities than his Enter Unite transformation, and comes along with a broadsword while in use.

Reason for Echo: Transforming into Dark Buster for the first time. In canon, after his first transformation Enter immediately used this power without wasting any time.
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability
What is returned: Enter's flashstep/super speed ability. Only usable while transformed into Enter Unite or Dark Buster.

Player: Chris
Character: Henry Cassidy/Mills
Reason for Echo: Wise Snake Battle
Type and tier: Tier 2 and Physical
What is returned: An unlock for his heart of the truest believer. Currently he can only transform five objects per day and then he has to wait 24 hours. I'd like to expand on the ability a bit more, maybe allowing a bigger increase on how many objects he can transform per day.

Player: Kati
Character: Flandre Scarlet/ Danièle Delacroix
Reason for Echo: Wise Snake
Type and tier: Tier 2 Ability and Memory
What is returned: Her ability to fly and how exactly to do so. (As it is a magical ability since her wings are not quite flight capable to be honest.)

(There probably will be a few more coming up during the battle BUT THIS FOR NOW)
