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.

ah right I should put in for these

Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien

Reason for Echo: Actually going and facing some snake scales. Julien's encountered them but always ran. I don't know if Yuuya's ever fought reptiles, but he's faced The King, whose quasiavian heads move on long flexible necks.
Type and tier: Memory, tier one.
What is returned: A brief memory of bursting into The King's throneroom, seeing The King fighting his friends, and "That ungainly dance of yours is hardly something to show in front of a lady, your highness!" Of his friends only Hiyoko is clearly visible, a human teenager with the roughness humans in that era have.

Reason for Echo: Raising and fanning his magnificent tailfeathers. Julien has never had tailfeathers before!
Type and tier: Memory, tier one
What is returned: The knowledge that his brother always kept his tail up, fanned, and elaborately groomed. Unlike he himself.

Reason for Echo: Consciously trying to move his new prehensile feathers.
Type and tier: ...skill? Memory? Tier one.
What is returned: Ability to coordinate those feathers and use them to grasp and generally manipulate objects.

Player: Kd7sov
Character: Felix/Fred Vandenberg

Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: Saturos and Menardi's names and faces.

A few days to a week, as the information comes up. The dwarves have started a notebook with all their collective memories in it and they gave it to him; he stopped reading every time he hit a trigger because they're kind of disconcerting.

Noted! Adding them to info now.

Player: Mini
Character: Angeline Strauss / Stocking Anarchy
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence: gorging herself on sweets. Angeline has never done this before because she wasn't fond of sweets.
Type and tier: Physical, tier 1.
What is returned: Stocking's ability to gorge herself on food (usually sweets) without gaining weight in unwanted areas. (Basically, it goes to her boobs.)
paradiseshrinemaiden: (The things I put up with...)

[personal profile] paradiseshrinemaiden 2014-03-16 11:12 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Trouble
Character: Reimu Hakurei
Reason for Echo: Super Late Snake Battle Special Echo
Type and tier: Tier 2, Item (ish?)
What is returned: Reimu's Shikigami Familiar from the PC-98 games, Genji the old giant turtle with a beard. Genji could fly and could talk and that was about it. Back before Reimu learned how to fly on her own, she road around on him, but he retired to the pond at the back of the shrine after the switch to the Windows games. (if he's not allowed to fly and talk, he should at least be able to talk).
