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.

oncedevil: (Default)

two echoes please!

[personal profile] oncedevil 2015-02-01 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay I am HORRIBLY BEHIND on putting in for these, well actually just one because I didn't find out about the wolpertinger until late. SORRY FOR THIS D: I hope it is okay?

Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Plot echo for first encountering a wolpertinger. Richard adopted one, now they have an adorable swandog.
Type and tier: Tier 1, physical change/power.
What is returned: Base level demonic strength. This isn't hulk-smash levels of strength, but he is capable of picking a person up and tossing them with relative ease. Initially he won't entirely know how to control this, so door handles may suffer for a time.

Character: Still Anthony
Reason for Echo: Also a plot echo for being involved in the Lapland adventure!
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability/power
What is returned: Base demonic speed. Again this isn't anything like The Flash or something insane like that. Simply a heightened awareness of and ability to react/move at a greater speed than what would be considered normal for a human. He's able to get out of the way of things moving directly for his face (rockets, for example) if he sees them coming in time. Of course this is also one that's going to take some practice so he doesn't go over-correcting into a wall or something. This is probably going to happen a lot.

It works together with the strength ability to allow a little extra force behind physical attacks. Or say, longer distance jumps than most people could feasibly manage. Again, a matter of practice.

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-02-02 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Triple, then?

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2015-02-02 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, she is right now.

[personal profile] evowhisperer 2015-02-03 07:09 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Zalein
Character: Cesar/Caesar
Reason for Echo: This isn't a recurrence of anything plot important or onscreen, but Cesar wakes up in StE to the sound of a smoke detector for the first time, and it reminds him of waking up very suddenly in his canon office due to similar sounds. I figure with a lifestyle like he has, it's bound to have happened at least once.
Type and tier: Tier one, Mental!
What is returned: Canon Caesar shows signs of being extremely reckless with his and other people's safety. Cesar echoes back a slight bit of that recklessness, gaining a distant impression of his past self putting out an office fire for the third time that week. The effects of this echo would be to prompt him to be a little more daring and outgoing.

maybe one day soon these will stop but you all keep triggering memories

[personal profile] elfstoned 2015-02-04 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Krystal
Character: King Hellassar I
Reason for Echo: Telling Liam the story of Luthien and Beren to try to keep him calm
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: The memory will return in a dream: he'll dream of camping on Weathertop, of telling the hobbits about Beren and Luthien, and about the Ringwraith attack.
dead_black_eyes: "Yellow Flicker Beat" (They used to shout my name)

[personal profile] dead_black_eyes 2015-02-04 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Lexil
Character: Lazarus "L" Lawliet
Reason for Echo: While in Cesar's apartment, L finds a notebook full of incriminating evidence, including the names of people who were hurt by the Mafia.
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory; L remembers a black notebook with the names of many victims written in it.
evowhisperer: Made by Zalein! (Miss the beard.)

[personal profile] evowhisperer 2015-02-04 10:37 am (UTC)(link)
Gah, sorry--yeah, an actual memory isn't the important part here, the recklessness is more what I'm aiming for. Sorry for the offscreen-ness of it!

Question: Would it help if we were to replace the canon-sortanotreally-recurrence with him getting the echo from an older character? Cesar has less than 15 echoes, and that he got this while around Lazarus. They were physically close at the time, and L's player has said she's up for this.

Revised:
Player: Zalein
Character: Cesar/Caesar
Reason for Echo: (still discussing)
Type and tier: Tier one, Mental!
What is returned: A bit of recklessness due to the above recurrence.
