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: Bri
Character: Nick Burkhardt
Reason for Echo: using the transporter for the first time!
Type and tier: Item | Tier 1
What is returned: His vambrace! Basically an arm guard strong enough to withstand the bite of an alligator, with a fancy retractable blade. But, you know, only one, so hopefully whatever bites him only goes after one arm.

Reason for Echo: Refined Shell
Type and tier: Item | Tier 2
What is returned: An upgrade for his previously echoed back trailer: the apothecary table is now stocked with its various chemicals and herbs.
starlightheart: (Default)

[personal profile] starlightheart 2014-09-28 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Ken
Character: Natalie Tamura (Nanoha Takamachi)
Reason for Echo: Recurrence - Witnessing various people flying around the Refined Shell battlefield, many under mystical or supernatural assistance.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Ability
What is returned: She regains the Accel Fin spell. This creates wings from her feet that grant her the power of fully sustained flight.

In canon, Nanoha is fast enough to likely rival the speed of fighter jets at maximum speed. For purposes here, Natalie is getting a scaled down version of that output - she'll still be pretty speedy in the air, but not completely over the top. Yet.
buildyourworld: (gn particles overload)

[personal profile] buildyourworld 2014-09-28 09:21 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Angel
Character: Eugen Lambert
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence; mention of Lockon's family death
Type and tier: Memory | Tier 1
What is returned: Tieria's knowledge of Lockon's family death that was caused by the KPSA terrorist.

Player: Drizz
Character: Ladd Splot (Ladd Russo)
Reason for Echo: Crab battle!
Type and tier: Tier 2; item
What is returned: A Lupara (Italian sawed off shotgun) named "Blasty", as well as the ability to fire it with precise accuracy.
moreweaponsthanyou: (I'm listening)

[personal profile] moreweaponsthanyou 2014-09-29 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
Player: sabriel
Character: Filbert Phineasson Darens
Reason for Echo: Seeing Refined Crab rampage through Vegas right next to Erebor
Type and tier: Tier 1, Mental (not the Plot echo for refined crab)
What is returned: Memory of Smaug rampaging through Laketown which is right next to Erebor at the end of DoS/beginning of BoFA.

Reason for Echo: Taking part in Refined Crab Battle (Plot echo!)
Type and tier: Tier 2, Mental + Item
What is returned: His almost-endless supply of daggers and their use (throwing, cutting, etc..)

seed_of_memory: (Default)

[personal profile] seed_of_memory 2014-09-29 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Razorsaw
Character: Fuyuka Terasawa
Reason for Echo: Talking further with Lily here, with Lily saying that her experience in the Mirage was real to her
Type and tier: Tier 1 - Memory
What is returned: Fuyuka regains the memory of her experience in the Book of Darkness, where she experienced a memory of living happily with Alicia, the girl she was cloned from, as her sister, along with their mother, only for Fate to realize it was an illusion and eventually escape being trapped in the book. This would also give her her conversation with the false Alicia that precedes her escape.
peacefulwinter: (I'm certain of it.)

[personal profile] peacefulwinter 2014-09-29 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: MaxSalsa
Character: Winter Adamas | Rikka Hishikawa
Reason for Echo: Proximity to Refined Shell, because crab battles are serious business.
Type and tier: Tier 2: Ability + Memory
What is returned: Winter remembers how to use the other ability tied to her Diamond Shower Loveads, Diamond Blizzard. It's a dramatically stronger version of Diamond Shower, consuming more power than before. Rikka had two different versions of Diamond Blizzard: one we saw in the series movie, where she froze enemies solid; and one we saw in the show's final battle, where she froze herself into the middle of a massive diamond, protecting Mana and the others from a massive crowd of Selfish charging into the heart of King Selfishness.

That second version is the one that Winter will be seeing a memory of; she'll see Diamond urge Heart and the others to continue on, and then turn around, raise her Love Heart Arrow, and fill the entire chamber with ice. There's a bright flash, and when the light clears, Diamond's frozen into the middle of a huge structure, eyes closed, Arrow still raised over her head. She gets better; Diamond makes another appearance about an episode later.

[personal profile] detectivetroll 2014-09-29 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Bri
Character: Nick Burkhardt
Reason for Echo: last plot echo for this time around - seeing the cultists' symbol for the first time!
Type and tier: Item + Memory | Tier 2
What is returned: A vial of semi-complete doppelganger potion (missing the blood component), and knowledge of how to make it!
italktofish: cap from wf.toonzone.net (Flex)

[personal profile] italktofish 2014-09-30 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Airdra
Character: Arthur Curry/Aquaman
Reason for Echo: Crabster fight!
Type and tier: Ability, Tier 2
What is returned: Arthur will become even more adapted to survive at the deepest depths of the ocean. His night vision will become very good to compensate for the lack of light in some areas of the ocean. He will also become far, far less sensitive to cold temperatures, because the ocean gets very cold at times. He's been working up his tolerance to soaking in cold water by taking brisk dips in bodies of water at inopportune times of year, but now it's a superhuman tolerance. For example, he wouldn't have any risk whatsoever of getting hypothermia if he were to go swimming off Locke's coast in the middle of January.

Reason for Echo: Arthur wanted to save the crabster, but it's going to be impossible. In canon, there's an instance in which he tried really hard to save a beluga whale, and the whale died anyway.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: The Sad Song of the Sea. Basically, it's a bunch of sad whale noises. That's it, that's the Echo. Singing sad whale noises and calling it the Sad Song of the Sea.

Character: Hajime Aikawa
Reason for Echo: Crabster fight!
Type and tier: Ability/item, Tier 2
What is returned: He'll get the ability to summon Chalice's bow and the Category Six of Hearts Rouse Card, which is used with the bow. He's already got knowledge of how the bow works from an earlier Echo.

I thought I'd posted this but I guess not! Oops.

Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien
Reason for Echo: Refined Shell
Type and tier:Tier 2, item and ability or training.

What is returned: Yuuya's dreamcracker tech and knowledge of how to use it.

It's not really explained in canon, but with someone's help Yuuya can connect his head to a sleeper's with a bunch of suction cups and wires. Then if he goes to sleep himself he can enter their dream, witness it and interrupt things, converse with them, and persuade them to wake up. This holds true if it's a supernatural dream, too. In canon he enters a shared dream maintained by a ghost and stocked with lesser ghosts, is booted out and wakes up once, and goes back in later to help the people trapped there to get out.
no_love_potions: (WTF?!)

[personal profile] no_love_potions 2014-10-02 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Nick
Character: Harry Lyre
Reason for Echo: Meeting Anthony.
Type and tier: Memory. Tier-1
What is returned: ZOMBIES! Harry will recall facing off against four zombies under the control of a necromancer in a forensics lab.
ruleorserve: (the {noun} of Rassilon)

[personal profile] ruleorserve 2014-10-02 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Sceadu
Character: Archimedes "Emil" Keller
Reason for Echo: Using the teleporter for the first time!
Type and tier: Item, tier 1
What is returned: The outer shell of his TARDIS, currently in the form of a grandfather clock. Additionally, since his TARDIS has a functional chameleon circuit unlike the Doctor's, I'm perfectly okay with it being locked into its clock form should it need to be to count as a tier 1.

Reason for Echo: Refined Shell
Type and tier: Tier 2, ability
What is returned: His ability to regenerate. Instead of dying, he'll now be able to regenerate all the cells of his body and become a completely new person (much in the same way that John has). He will, however, need to actually be at risk of dying for it to work.

arrowpoint: (➹ tego nin i Melain am mand)

[personal profile] arrowpoint 2014-10-03 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Mark
Character: Liam Benedict / Legolas

Reason for Echo: Hearing Arthur "sing" his "sad song of the sea"
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: The tune and lyrics of Legolas' song of the sea (Which is has some sadness associated with it.) Lyrics as follows:

To the Sea, to the Sea! The white gulls are crying,
The wind is blowing, and the white foam is flying.
West, west away, the round sun is falling.
Grey ship, grey ship, do you hear them calling,
The voices of my people that have gone before me?
I will leave, I will leave the woods that bore me;
For our days are ending and our years failing.
I will pass the wide waters lonely sailing.
Long are the waves on the Last Shore falling,
Sweet are the voices in the Lost Isle calling,
In Eressëa, in Elvenhome that no Man can discover,
Where the leaves fall not: land of my people for ever!
blastiaobsessieanonymous: (Curious)

[personal profile] blastiaobsessieanonymous 2014-10-03 04:18 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Incardine
Character: Rita Mordio
Reason for Echo: So here's a GIANT ENEMY CRAB.
Type and tier: Tier 1 Item
What is returned: Rita gets a stack of Magic Lenses - utility items that identify the properties of an examined enemy. Suffice it to say, the results will be more abstract than the typical video game stat stacks...
disdainfully: (doubt)

[personal profile] disdainfully 2014-10-03 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Kira
Character: Thorir/Thorin
Reason for Echo: Seeing the throne room in the Lonely Mountain & the throne (sans Arkenstone) for the first time
Type and tier: Tier 1, mental
What is returned: The memory of this scene from Thorin (guy in blue)'s POV, including Thorin's feelings (surprise and disapproval) of the scene. The scene takes place in the throne room.
guitar_case_vagabond: (Default)

[personal profile] guitar_case_vagabond 2014-10-04 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Nick
Character: Raye Satterfield
Reason for Echo: The murder of her father from being in the crossfire of the mafia attack on her.
What is returned: The memory of Ryuko returning to her home to find Isshin Matoi murdered via the Scissor Blade plunged into his gut. This will take the form of nightmares that will replay over and over while she's nonresponsive in the hospital. Edited with a video link to the scene. Just cause.
Edited 2014-10-04 01:41 (UTC)

[personal profile] blastiaobsessieanonymous 2014-10-04 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Incardine
Character: Rita Mordio/Britany Ruff
Reason for Echo: Getting picked up and carried to safety by someone with a fly spell reminds of an incident where she picked and carried someone else with her own flight magics in canon.
Type and tier: Tier 2 Mental/Memory
What is returned: Britany recalls a certain little moment from her canon... And the Levitate spell that lets her emulate it.
buildyourworld: (Lockon..!!!)

[personal profile] buildyourworld 2014-10-04 07:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Angel
Character: Eugen Lambert
Reason for Echo: Canon Recurrence; this happened.
Type and tier: Memory | Tier 1
What is returned: Memory of Lockon taking a hit for Tieria that subsequently injured his dominant sniping eye, the conversation where Lockon encouraged Tieria when he was feeling guilty over Lockon's injury and then Lockon's eventual death, ending right at the point where Haro repeated called out to Lockon, tying in with his other echo.
hotshots: ([LP] - 001)

[personal profile] hotshots 2014-10-05 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Ken
Character: Neil Dylandy
Reason for Echo: Recurrence - Taking a critical blow for the Gundam Virtue.
Type and tier: Tier 1
What is returned: Remembers Lockon doing the same, taking a beam saber through the Gundam to protect the Vritue. This will explain to him just why Lockon was half blind in his final battle. For all this is about to matter.
arrowpoint: (➹ calad)

[personal profile] arrowpoint 2014-10-05 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Mark
Character: Liam Benedict / Legolas

Reason for Echo: Plot Echo - pink light over Neuschwanstein Castle via television on Oct. 6th
Type and tier: Tier 2, Ability
What is returned: Enhanced Elven sight and hearing
radiantchicken: (a rubber bird suit)

[personal profile] radiantchicken 2014-10-05 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Airdra
Character: Torin
Reason for Echo: He'll be watching the pink pulse over Germany on TV.
Type and tier: Item, Tier 2
What is returned: He'll be getting the Beast Battery charger--which notably has slots for ALL of the Kyoryugers' Beast Batteries, not just the ones Torin uses--and one of Stymero's Beast Batteries. The Stymero battery will cause anyone hit by its effects to become infatuated with the first person they see. Torin will have no way of knowing this.
boxingbuff: (Sounds exciting!)

[personal profile] boxingbuff 2014-10-05 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Drizz
Character: Ladd Splot
Reason for Echo: Talking with Miss Go.
Type and tier: Tier 1; memory
What is returned: The memory of his other self's name: Ladd Russo.

Reason for Echo: Plot echo, seeing the pink light on television.
Type and tier: Tier 2; memory
What is returned: A memory. Ladd is standing in an old fashioned train station, dressed in a white suit and surrounded by other people in white suits. He talks about "treating the passengers like cattle."

Another memory comes with it. One where Ladd is standing on top of a moving train, the same train from before, staring down a woman in a black dress.

abhero: illbillyou @ lj (Default)

[personal profile] abhero 2014-10-05 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Merav
Character: Emil/Hamel
Reason for Echo: Plot – watching the pink light over Neuschwanstein on the news.
Type and tier: physical, tier 2
What is returned: Mazoku lifespan, which is directly linked to magical power. Mazoku are essentially immortal if they don't use their power--since Emil is only half Mazoku, his natural lifespan would be a few centuries. His aging will be slowed down (he's going to look 25 for a loooong time). If he ever uses up all his magical power, he will crumble to dust and die. Drinking holy/magical blood can restore his lifespan and reverse the process.
scarlet_devil: /muffled Zakuro in the distance ([Adult] Feral)

whoops kind of forgot this one

[personal profile] scarlet_devil 2014-10-05 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Pyjak
Character: Remilia Scarlet (Emilia Stacojiu)
Reason for Echo: Killing her first human.
Type and tier: Tier 1, mental.
What is returned: Emilia's develops the kind of predatory instincts a vampire is known for.
no_love_potions: (Default)

Multiple Echoes

[personal profile] no_love_potions 2014-10-05 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Nick
Character: Harry Lyre
Reason for Echo: Running into a Vermedi/mutated mafia (TBD) with Sheila in an upcoming thread.
Type and tier: Ability. Tier 1
What is returned: His magic, all of it. HOWEVER, magic and the knowledge of how to wield it is not a package deal. In his universe the key to real power is not so much how much you can do but what you can do and with this Echo Harry will be able to do a whole lot of nothing much. Except blow stuff up and give himself a splitting headache. Which is what is probably going to happen.

Player: Nick
Character: Harry Lyre
Reason for Echo: Blowing himself up with his first attempt at magic use.
Type and tier: Item. Tier 1
What is returned: A copy of "Elementary Magic." Elementary Magic is essentially baby's first magic book, and typically the first thing apprentice wizards are given to study. Written textbook style, it details the mechanics of manipulating energy but doesn't include any big or significant spells and stresses the need for control and responsibility. This book will appear after Harry spends a day or so sleeping off his magic-induced migraine.

If preferred I can combine these two as his October Tier 2 Echo.

Player: Nick.
Character: Harry Lyre once again
Reason for Echo: The light erupting in Germany.
Type and tier: "Item." Tier 2.
What is returned: HIS DOG! Mouse is a Tibetan temple dog, a breed specially bred as guardians and protectors, with innate magic of their own. Mouse is a massive furry monster, affectionately dubbed a dogosaurus rex, and is roughly four feet tall at the shoulder and approaches a full seven feet if he jumps up on his hind legs. He's also in possession of pretty much human intelligence and can bark a deafening "Warning bark" that lets everyone who hears it know danger is near on an instinctual level.

Despite his size and immense strength, Mouse is a sweetie pie suckface and likely won't behave as anything other than a regular dog until such time as circumstances force him to spring into action.

The second part of the Echo would be knowing that Mouse was his dog so Harry won't flip his lid when he wakes up to find a panting furrbeast staring at him from the foot of his bed.
