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.

oncedevil: (Rebellion pls)

I keep forgetting to do this oops

Player: Jessica
Character: Tony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Plot echo for using the teleporter for the first time. Yes horribly late to the party I'm sorry.
Type and tier: Should just be a tier 1? It's an item enhancement more than an item itself, since the item is already present? Wow convoluted.
What is returned: Rebellion's soul, or presence if you will. Devil Arms are typically forged out of the souls of demons, and Rebellion is no different. What this gives is a sort of link to Tony (Dante) and a focus and stepping stone for further advancements and doesn't add much on its own. Tony will now be aware of and capable of "feeling" the blade, even summoning it back to himself over short distances, but for the moment that's about it. The soul itself would be largely dormant at this stage.

Others may feel creeped out in its presence, especially if they're particularly sensitive to demonic or dark energies.

All in all it doesn't do much yet is just generally creepy and slightly alive. While it has been shown to scream that's only when influenced by a huge amount of demon energy from an outside source, I don't think we'll be seeing that any time soon.

Player: Airdra
Character: Hajime Aikawa
Reason for Echo: Super belated plot echo from seeing a recording of the lights over Germany. Maybe he'd been avoiding it after hearing people were getting things off of it and just now caught the broadcast by accident.
Type and tier: Item, Tier 2
What is returned: A pair of his Rouse Cards, the Three of Hearts and the Six of Hearts.

Type and tier: Tier 1, ability
What is returned: L speaks Mandarin!

[personal profile] charcoalfeather 2014-11-29 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Drizz
Character: Rakka
Reason for Echo: Winter coming around, and the first signs of snow.
Type and tier: Memory; tier 2
What is returned: A memory of herself speaking with Reki about how winter is coming and it's the death of summer and symbolism bluh.

Rakka gets a pair of wing warmers out of it.

Reason for Echo: Going to Nuremberg Christmas Market, and coming back home with gifts
Type and tier: Memory; tier 1
What is returned: A memory of herself at a similar looking market with the other Haibane. They're talking about the new year coming around, and about little charms made of nuts that symbolise forgiveness. Rakka seemed sad for some reason about Reki.

oncedevil: (Bang bang)

[personal profile] oncedevil 2014-11-30 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence, hunting mafia goons with Shou is fairly similar to his other's old profession of Devil hunting.
Type and tier: Tier 1, don't know if it counts as an ability so much as an instinct?
What is returned: Watching and helping Shou while hunting skeevy jerk mafia men is very similar to routing out devils, especially those posing in similar positions of mafiosos or other underworld dwelling types. As such he's regained some of his instincts on how to do that more effectively. It's not a direct memory perse, just a strong familiarity with the subject. A muscle-memory how to if you will.
brotimaeus: (04 | That you feel me somehow)

[personal profile] brotimaeus 2014-12-01 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Fiona
Character: Richard Stroud/Bro Strider
Reason for Echo: Hard to pin down an exact trigger for this, but Nick's post about going after Albero was the tipping point. He's never honestly considered killing someone before and meant it.
Type and tier: Tier 1; Memory(ish)
What is returned: Richard would get Bro Strider's 'Guardian' instincts. Whatever it was in the Guardians of the human kids that made them sacrifice everything for the sake of their charges. This would make him more determined, more reckless and more likely to do unusual and dangerous things to keep the people he cares about safe.

Reason for Echo: Dani calling her 'sis' accidentally.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory.
What is returned: The knowledge that Dani's past self was her sister. It'll only kick in once she's in an echo boundary.

oncedevil: (Ow)

[personal profile] oncedevil 2014-12-05 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence
Type and tier: Tier 2, passive ability, triggered by a shot to the forehead. This happens too often to past!Dante to be healthy.
What is returned: BEING SHOT IN THE FACE happens in the early part of Devil May Cry 3, where young Dante infuriates Lady into shooting him. In the face. Which is happening again to poor Tony. He has his predecessor's luck.

What is returned is the ability to survive that bullet to the face, demonic survivability. What this encompasses is two parts, one rapid regeneration that allows him to heal from essentially any injury that doesn't outright kill him. Continued damage over time will slow the effect, and larger amounts of damage still take time to heal, but barring death nothing will be lasting.

The second part is durability, the ability to not immediately die from many things that would otherwise kill a normal human. Falling from great heights, bullet to the forehead, sword to the gut. What can kill him is a direct blow to the heart, continued sustained damage past his regeneration point, and probably decapitation? He survives getting punched into a crater by a three-story tall monster, so he can take a beating but he's not invincible. Just very, very durable.

Extreme amounts of damage can bring him near death still (passive Devil Trigger may still be necessary), even if they won't outright kill him they can take him down. Blah blah I am rambling if there's anything else let me know?
oncedevil: (Default)

[personal profile] oncedevil 2014-12-06 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
ADDING AN EDIT: Regeneration greatly reduced. Heals enough to bring him stable then only heals at about half speed, takes time and significant energy to fully heal a major injury. Yes?
ursoreckless: (Default)

[personal profile] ursoreckless 2014-12-07 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Alec
Character: Chinen Shou | Sho
Reason for Echo: Canon echo type thing!
Type and tier: Tier 1 + 2: memory + physical

What is returned: Memory - Seeing Tony fight off the head wound and go after that goon in this log will bring back the memory of Kei in the midst of bloodlust - going into a drunken, though crazed attack on the people that had shot him as well kill a friend of theirs.

Physical - Shou will gain back the complete durability of a vampire, which is to say so long as he is feeding regularly, he can shrug off damage that would kill a normal person. The less he's been feeding the less that he is able to heal and he will go into bloodlust if he reaches that point where he needs to feed to heal.
stefanged: (oh really now?)

[personal profile] stefanged 2014-12-07 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Ziya
Character: Stefan Alesci / Stefan Salvatore
Reason for Echo: Plot echo, using the teleporter for the first time after talking to Julien
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability (mind compulsion)
What is returned: Stefan now has the ability to compel people - that is, make them listen to his bidding by staring directly into their eyes. When they make eye contact, he can order them to do almost anything [from getting him a cup of iced tea to killing someone to letting them inside his house], as well as for them to forget the orders they performed under his control. The compulsion can last for a few seconds, or a few hours, or as long as Stefan needs it to work.

This ability doesn't work on witches or ghosts canonically, as well as other vampires. For the sake of StE, it can be expanded to other Numbered (and any other supernatural creatures the mods desire).

purestambition: (Default)

[personal profile] purestambition 2014-12-09 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Ken
Character: Saretha Kaiser
Reason for Echo: Discovery of the worst kept secret in this game a relation between herself and Raye Satterfield.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Memroy of when Satsuki Kiryuin discovered the same thing towards Ryuko Matoi.

Namely, remembering Satsuki beaten and having been literally put through a wall, stripped of Junketsu, now worn by her mother Ragyo. Ragyo confronts Ryuko and ... well, rips out her heart. Ryuko somehow remains alive, Life Fibers running through her heart and Ragyo addresses her as her "daughter."

Reason for Echo: Seeing Raye's berserker form.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Memory of Satsuki seeing the same for the first time - Ryuko atop a tournament spire, confronting one Nui Harime... who admits to killing her father. Ryuko goes nuts and transforms into an insane, berserk monster that basically begins to trash everything in sight.
arrowpoint: (➹ tangado i chui!)

[personal profile] arrowpoint 2014-12-10 12:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Mark
Character: Liam Benedict / Legolas

Reason for Echo: Thorir and Liam talking about Liam being (potentially) in battle.

Type and tier: Tier 1 Memory

What is returned: Liam remembers that he (as Legolas) has been in more than one battle, but does not remember specific battles.

[personal profile] goldenflames 2014-12-10 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Pyjak
Character: Yelena (Yang Xiao Long)
Reason for Echo: Seeing the berserk Raye... assuming echos triggered by other Numbered are in effect yet.
Type and tier: Tier 2 for December, Physical.
What is returned: In short, her Semblance. Basically it's an ability that allows her to use the kinetic energy from blows to increase her strength and durability.

espigeonage: (Default)

[personal profile] espigeonage 2014-12-11 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien
Reason for Echo: Wearing a dark hooded cloak - these things feel different worn over feathers. Yuuya once investigated a cult by joining it and somehow ended up as the leader.
Type and tier: Tier One, knowledge or memory.
What is returned: The cult's rites - building bonfires at night and circling them wearing black hooded cloaks, chanting and praying through the fire to the moon and stars, sacrificing white fluffy things to the flame and to some god which will rise to cleanse and feed the world.

It doesn't come with a compulsion to do the rites or become devout, but he'll want to try some out.

Reason for Echo: Burning some of his molted feathers in the sacred watch-fire.
Type and tier: Tier One... physical?
What is returned: Apparently Yuuya's feathers, when burned, smell delicious. I don't know if this would apply to ones he's shed already.

oncedevil: (Default)

[personal profile] oncedevil 2014-12-14 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Jessica
Character: Anthony Sparado
Reason for Echo: Once upon a time Tony's predecessor Dante worked as a sort of investigator, and he was quite skilled at putting together hints and clues that might be easily missed or overlooked by others. Being faced with one such situation while speaking with L may be a familiar trigger for such a thing.
Type and tier: Tier 1, innate problem solving skills.
What is returned: Some innate investigator skills is all. Nothing huge, but Tony himself wouldn't necessarily have had the cleverness to put elements together as well as Dante. Really just a sense of how some things relate to each other (such as comments about "relaxing" and knowledge of L's past... habits) and being able to put pieces together a little more adeptly.

[personal profile] goldenflames 2014-12-15 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Pyjak
Character: Yelena (Yang Xiao Long)
Reason for Echo: Seeing Jasmine get punched by monster!Raye. Yang's past self had taken a blow like that, after all. Or Yelena gets hit herself, if that works better.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Physical.
What is returned: Her Aura. Basically it's an ability that lets her withstand physical blows. Blows that would otherwise turn her into red mist.

Type and tier: December Tier 2
What is returned: Memory of the Company getting captured in Mirkwood by Elven company led by Tauriel and Legolas, getting put into the cells one by one, all the way up to the point Bilbo gets the keys and lets the mout.

Player: Nick
Character: Raye Satterfield
Reason for Echo: Going berserker.
Type and tier: Memory. Tier-1
What is returned: The memory of the same incident happening to Ryuko. Beginning with her clash with Harime Nui after the girl confessed to killing her father and continuing all the way through her battle with Satsuki.

Player: Nick
Character: Senketsu
Reason for Echo: Also Raye going berserk
Type and tier: Tier-1. Memory.
What is returned: After Raye is restored from her berserker state, Senketsu will regain the knowledge of the true nature of Life Fibers and himself. That they are an invasive, destructive species that devours all life around them and that he was created from to be a weapon. His true purpose, however, will continue to elude him.

Player: Sair
Character: Danielle Masters/Dani Phantom
Reason for Echo: Plot recurrence. The first time Danielle's really been hit how much she misses her father after running away.
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1.
What is returned: The memory of Dani on the streets early on and how she actually misses Vlad. Because she still loved him even if he didn't love her. ):

Player: Kira

Character: Siiri /Sweden
Reason for Echo: Teleporter echo
Type and tier: Tier 2
What is returned: Speaking and writing Swedish from all time periods, though her modern Swedish only comes in a heavy Norrlandish accent.


Character: Thorir /Thorin
Reason for Echo: Let's talk about betrayal! Aka talking with Julien about Numbered being used in case the surface people find the colony in the mountain.
Type and tier: Mental, tier 1
What is returned: Thorin's distrust of others because they might take his mountain that with the echo below will get amped up by a thousand into a serious issue.

Reason for Echo: Finding all the gold in the Erebor. wow such gold.
Type and tier: Tier 1, mental
What is returned: Dragon sickness. When Thorin encountered all the gold inside the mountain, he rapidly fell into this mental illness, that basically makes him unable to think positively about anything but the treasure hoard to the point of even discounting human and dwarven lives for it; since this is an echo, Thorir will echo the full load of it the moment he sees the gold, so there's not even a slowly falling into it.

Reason for Echo: When Cesar returns to the network sans vocal cords, L tries to think of ways to help him communicate and picks up some videos from one of the libraries in Locke City about American Sign Language, which he has never studied.
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability
What is returned: A decently comprehensive grasp of American Sign Language. While not quite fluent, he has the competency of someone who has studied for several years and a larger-than-average vocabulary for someone of this level. He's not going on to become a skilled interpreter, but he could absolutely help someone who's just learning.

Reason for Echo: Witnessing this!
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability.
What is returned: Emilia gets back her own ability to mesmerise her target into doing her bidding by making eye contact. It doesn't just work on humans, but on animals too. For now, I'm considering it having no effect on Numbered if it's too much.
