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.

Character: Glorfindel/Gabriel
Reason for Echo: Hearing the name 'Aragorn' for the first time
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory

Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: Shou showing off his fancy katana sparks a vague memory of Yamato, and that it is significant. The exact details of how aren't revealed to him, only a strong sense of importance and familiar link. As well as the weapon's name if that's cool?
stefanged: (contemplating)

Player: Ziya
Character: Stefan Salvatore
Reason for Echo: Triggered by physical proximity to Xander Jarle (+ canon occurrence).
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: When Stefan talks to Xander about his echoes & what species he could be, he recalls a conversation between him and his brother, where Stefan wonders how his father "took the news that [Stefan and his brother] are dead." He still doesn't recall Damon's name, but he realizes that he was transitioning into a vampire & how "feeding" will complete the ritual.

tl;dr, Stefan remembers the conversation where he's trying to convince Damon to transition into a vampire, and that he became one for Katherine's sake.

Player: Misty
Character: Toushirou Hitsugaya
Reason for Echo: Encountering a doppelganger for the first time.
Type and tier: Tier 1 - Power/Ability

Player: Krystal
Character: The Reverend King Doctor Aaron T. Strider
Reason for Echo: Plot: encountering Torin's doppelganger.
Type and tier: Physical, tier 2: February
What is returned: Part 1 is Numenorean physiology's actual perks: extended lifespan, heightened senses, and the ability to die on command. Part 2 is Aragorn II's actual physical appearance, with the darker hair and the height and all the scars he has by the end of ROTK. They're related because they're both echoing back aspects of Aragorn's physical body.

EDIT: Pinging this, and letting you know that if it needs to be altered, I'm absolutely willing to tone it down!

Player: Mindy
Character: Elian Price / Vector Prime
Reason for Echo: Talking with these two numbskulls
Type and tier: 1; Memory
What is returned: So canonically, Vector Prime basically got to listen to another character whine and moan regarding himself and his team, and then promptly punched him in the face before beginning a Heroic Speech re; trusting people. I'm pretty sure lecturing these two is right on target with that, and Elian will have another out-of-context speech in his memory. (He won't remember whom he's talking to, just the words themselves, and the intense 'come on, you're better than this' motive behind it)

Player: Airdra
Character: Hajime Aikawa
Reason for Echo: The doppelganger plot's a pretty solid canon recurrence for him.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: He'll recieve memories of the events of episodes 43 and 44 of his canon--he won't remember any new names, but he'll get the basics. There was an artificially created Undead called the Titan Undead that was the fusion of two normal ones. Said Undead started using its abilities to mimic the four Riders in turn, trying to turn them against each other (not that they'd ever gotten along very well in the first place). Hajime spent most of the time following Kenzaki around in the hopes of catching him in the act of doing something strange, and he was the first to realize what was really going on. He then was responsible for the plan that led to the monster's defeat; he took his Joker form, pretended to go out of control, and lured the monster into a trap, figuring that the monster would want to bring him down above all else. The Undead was separated and resealed thanks to the efforts of all four Riders combined.

Character: Torin
Reason for Echo: He's going to be fighting his own doppelganger with Aaron, which is also going to be a pretty solid canon recurrence for him.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: The memory of fighting his doppelganger, Mad Torin. Mad Torin takes Torin's form for a while and hurts Torin's friends before he is exposed. Torin basically wills himself into the living embodiment of bravery at this point, transforms into Kyoryu Silver, and defeats the monster.

Player: Jessica!
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence, Cesar using holy water on Tony.
Type and tier: Tier 1, physical. Weakness to holy water. Doppel!Cesar, upon learning that Tony's become a demon is going to try something a little creative and use holy water on him. In canon this is a rather powerful weapon against demons and halfbreeds alike, as such it will result in an almost acid like reaction. Tony's more than demon enough now to react to it sob sob.

Player: Bri
Character: Nick Burkhardt
Reason for Echo: Having his first death-like episode of his PTZD, and Lyall finding him and freaking out
Type and tier: Tier 1 | Memory
What is returned: The canon memory of the first time Juliette found him during one of his death-like episodes and freaked out

Player: Mark
Character: Liam Benedict / Legolas

Reason for Echo: Lazerus mentioning that "not all of us are becoming immortals"
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: The knowledge that Elves are immortal, that they do not age passed maturity, (but they CAN die of injury/poison.)
stefanged: (rephrase that for me?)

[personal profile] stefanged 2015-02-22 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Ziya
Character: Stefan Salvatore
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence, seeing doppelganger posts on the Network (and more specifically, referring to the mess his doppelganger made)
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Stefan remembers meeting HIS canon doppelganger Silas for the first time (at the edge of town) the day Stefan graduates high school. Silas reveals his true form as Stefan's doppelganger, and then proceeds to stab Stefan and ask him to "imagine what it would like to be trapped for 2,000" years. While Stefan's in pain, Silas then pushes Stefan into a giant safe and drowns him underneath the nearby lake.

Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence, meeting Xander's doppelganger
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Knowledge of his world's doppelgangers: only two lines exist (Petrova's and Silas's lines), created to restore natural balance as they were the first two immortals in human history. They essentially represent mortality - they, after all, are shadow selves of immortal beings who can die. They're also soulmates who find each other every 500 years.
