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.

It's confirmed that Ryoji was able to see everything outside the door at the end of the game, but... he is on the opposite side of the door from Minako. It's a little weird, yeah, but there is confirmation he would have been able to see that.

Player: DC
Character: Arxene
Reason for Echo: Seeing Danteku with his preincarnation's silver hair
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: She remembers the appearance of the Riku Replica, and a snatch of conversation with him:

"What good is that?" "... you'll have all the real Riku's memories. Maybe we can get her to make you forget you're nothing but a fake."

Player: Lexil
Character: Lazarus Lawliet
Reason for Echo: Ban Ueno (Beyond Birthday) losing his echoes and deactivating due to his being dropped. The canon parallel is that B and L diverged at some point when L's expectations of B fell through and B literally left the orphanage; while B is still physically here in Locke City, there's a connection they had that has been severed.
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: For awhile now L and B have thought that they were getting back the same echoes because they were the same person. For closure I'd like L to echo back a deep, hollow realization that the person B was before was actually crazy, blaming L for all his problems while impersonating him.

Player: Anduin
Character: Kallie / Lightning

Reason for Echo: Item monsters...!
Type and tier: Tier 1, mental.
What is returned: Memory of the time the Pulse l'Cie were attempting to make their way through the city of Eden, only to run into a rather angry Behemoth King rampaging down a highway. Naturally, Lightning decides to attack by jumping into the middle of things and using a tumbling car to jump-flip towards it... but the behemoth throws her, making her have to save herself by stabbing her gunblade into the ground. Exhibit #182: Lightning is bonkers.

Reason for Echo: Smashing her Eidolith with her gunblade for the first time, mirroring something she saw in one of her memory Echoes. Typically this would serve to summon (one of) her Eidolons, but...
Type and tier: Tier 2, animal/power. 8|
What is returned: The Angel of Valhalla... but as a tiny baby chocobo. As of Returns, Lightning no longer manifests her Eidolith and her original/closest Eidolon, Odin, is reincarnated as a chocobo. This is a huge, magically-powerful animal though, so for now he'll only be a bitty thing like a white/green version of this with attitude.

He won't disappear on his own like Odin does in the first two games, but she'll still be able to summon him to her by repeating the crystal-smashin'. Because magically pulling a tiny chicken to your side is totes an awesome power.
