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: Pyjak
Character: Remilia Scarlet (Emilia Stacojiu)
Reason for Echo: Plot: Encountering her doppelgänger.
Type and tier: Tier 2, ability.
What is returned: The ability to make more vampires. To do so, she will need to drain a fatal amount of blood from a normal human and feed them some of her own blood. Once a vampire, they will share her physical enhancements but not her danmaku based powers like Gungnir. She will not be able to do this to other Numbered without another echo allowing her to do so.

That's fine by me! So final version:

"Part 1 is Numenorean physiology's actual perks: extended lifespan 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."

And I'll just do senses later. Yes?

to be honest I'm not certain without checking all the way back through every thread about it if anybody has brought up immortality in general, but I thought that since they were talking about immortals being among the numbered it made sense. (like the inference is "not all of us are immortals" = "some of us are") but! it's not really that important to me, honestly. Skip it if it takes too much brain work.

Seems to defeat the whole purpose if they are just normal people that happen to be undead.

Hmm, I think that given that there's a couple of months left, maybe the abilities take a while to kick in? Or start off with regeneration.

Player: Sceadu
Character: Archimedes "Emil" Keller/The Master
Reason for Echo: seeing the lights over London
Type and tier: Tier 2,
What is returned: The main console room of his TARDIS, and a TARDIS key. However, it'll pretty much just be the console room, none of the assorted sensors/technology/what have you will be functional nor will the TARDIS sentience herself be present.

It will also be unable to travel under its own power.

Player: Krystal
Character: Aragorn II Elessar Telcontar Strider Estel Thorongil Envinyatar Elfstone Wingfoot Longshanks
Reason for Echo: Being the subject of widespread bad press + unsavory nicknames being assigned to him
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: All of the above names, plus a couple of worse nicknames. No context for any of them. He'll just know everything Aragorn was called each one at one point or other in his life.

Yep! Entirely non-functional (possibly to his dismay).

Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien
Reason for Echo: Reading an unsavory and sensationalized account about sketchy doctor Aaron which makes him out to be purely malevolent, says he exploited people to work for him, and claims he disposes of people he's murdered in the clinic incinerator.
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned:Yuuya worked for sketchy doctor Iwamine, who is purely malevolent, uses his position of authority to experiment on students at a high school, sometimes kills and dissects them, and some of their remains end up in plastic baggies in the refrigerator of the cafeteria, some are sold, and the rest disposed of in the incinerator.

Julien remembers all that(though everything past "experiments" is remembered as a suspicion), that Yuuya hates and is often threatened by him and tries to foil his plans, that Shuu is protected somehow, and just what Iwamine Shuu looks like - a giant Chukar partridge.

Player: Pyjak
Character: Remilia Scarlet (Emilia Stacojiu)
Reason for Echo: Plot: Pink lights over London
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability.
What is returned: The ability to turn into one to six bats. Since she'll be basically splitting her mind among these bats, it's quite mentally tiring for her at first. She'll get headaches like Dani does, too. Turning into one bat isn't going to be as hard.
