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.

umbrael: (Lizard King • Coils)

[personal profile] umbrael 2014-03-19 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Rex
Character: Doyle/Umbrael
Reason for Echo: Sleeping out in the icy cold weather, which is what he did during the extinction event and some particularly extreme weather/climate events and how he survived while still being a big magical dinosaur spirit. If it's good enough for legit dragons, it's good enough for them!
Type and tier: Tier 2 physical/mental
What is returned: All right, so-

Throwing reincarnate Doyle here a bone and letting him sleep through some of the cold weather as we all wish we could do. Unlike his predecessor, he can only do it for a few days at most, probably not more than a week, instead of years. He'll wake up when things warm up a little, or when he runs out of days. He won't feel completely rested, either, since this is more of a pause button for him. When the echo hits it'll put him out from about the 12/13 to the morning of the 15th.

As for part two of the echo- When he wakes up, he'll have the notion that he's done that before, and when he thinks about it, he's going to remember that he did that once before - particularly falling asleep after the climate got really bad while everything was going extinct post-meteorite/eruption/whatever happened, and waking up as the planet got a little warmer again. He'll also be feeling lonely, but why that is won't be entirely clear. That's for another echo...

What is returned: A tennis racquet identical to the one he used during the match. It is pro quality and practically new.
