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.

Well, Dani will bring it up again once back inside the boundary. Would that work?

Player: Pyjak
Character: Yelena (Yang Xiao Long)
Reason for Echo: Seeing the berserk Raye... assuming echos triggered by other Numbered are in effect yet.
Type and tier: Tier 2 for December, Physical.
What is returned: In short, her Semblance. Basically it's an ability that allows her to use the kinetic energy from blows to increase her strength and durability.

Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien
Reason for Echo: Wearing a dark hooded cloak - these things feel different worn over feathers. Yuuya once investigated a cult by joining it and somehow ended up as the leader.
Type and tier: Tier One, knowledge or memory.
What is returned: The cult's rites - building bonfires at night and circling them wearing black hooded cloaks, chanting and praying through the fire to the moon and stars, sacrificing white fluffy things to the flame and to some god which will rise to cleanse and feed the world.

It doesn't come with a compulsion to do the rites or become devout, but he'll want to try some out.

Reason for Echo: Burning some of his molted feathers in the sacred watch-fire.
Type and tier: Tier One... physical?
What is returned: Apparently Yuuya's feathers, when burned, smell delicious. I don't know if this would apply to ones he's shed already.

i *believe so* (mafia fight and crab thing I think he *thought of* as a fight, because he's a derp. Battle is more large scale to him. (like army sized)) but tbh it's not an echo I really *need* and since I don't feel like going through old threads to check I'll drop it. <3

Viva Flying Campfirism!

Yes, that. Real, normal feathers smell awful burning. Yuuya's feathers make the human character exclaim "Your tail! Your tail is burnt! It smells delicious!" Might only smell that good to meat-eaters.

Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Once upon a time Tony's predecessor Dante worked as a sort of investigator, and he was quite skilled at putting together hints and clues that might be easily missed or overlooked by others. Being faced with one such situation while speaking with L may be a familiar trigger for such a thing.
Type and tier: Tier 1, innate problem solving skills.
What is returned: Some innate investigator skills is all. Nothing huge, but Tony himself wouldn't necessarily have had the cleverness to put elements together as well as Dante. Really just a sense of how some things relate to each other (such as comments about "relaxing" and knowledge of L's past... habits) and being able to put pieces together a little more adeptly.

Player: Pyjak
Character: Yelena (Yang Xiao Long)
Reason for Echo: Seeing Jasmine get punched by monster!Raye. Yang's past self had taken a blow like that, after all. Or Yelena gets hit herself, if that works better.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Physical.
What is returned: Her Aura. Basically it's an ability that lets her withstand physical blows. Blows that would otherwise turn her into red mist.

Yep. It can't stop everything.

Player: sabriel
Character: Filbert Darrens/Fili
Reason for Echo: Fil and Liam talk about how Legolas and Tauriel worked together as 'people who ran a jail' and 'arrested a lot of dwarves'
Type and tier: December Tier 2
What is returned: Memory of the Company getting captured in Mirkwood by Elven company led by Tauriel and Legolas, getting put into the cells one by one, all the way up to the point Bilbo gets the keys and lets the mout.
moreweaponsthanyou: (oh so smug)

[personal profile] moreweaponsthanyou 2014-12-18 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, he already has a 'folk bigger than him like ELVES' are not to be trusted echo so he wants to know if it was warranted or not. The knowledge of being arrested unfairly would prove true that 'feeling'.

If it's not strong enough for tier 2 I'm okay with cutting the scene down into tier 1.
