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: Abby
Character: Jin Aznable
Reason for Echo: Yoko yelling at him for not telling her things
Type and tier: Type 1, Memory
What is returned: Yoko and the other Go-Busters yelling desperately at him to try to stop him from sacrificing himself to save the world, and his chastising response, reminding them that so many sacrifices have been made to save their world, and if he doesn't make just one more, it will all be for naught.

Character: Beet J. Stag
Reason for Echo: Yoko chastising Jin
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: His own speech to Jin about his life being worthwhile, as he desperately attempts to save Jin's life.

Character: Jin Aznable
Reason for Echo: Yoko saying "we're in this together"
Type and tier: Type 1, Memory
What is returned: He'll remember, in the lead-up to his sacrifice, watching her and Ryuuji and their buddyroids say the same thing to Hiromu, who was ready to sacrifice himself to destroy Enter, too. And thinking at that time, that if he is to save these kids' lives, he's going to have to do it himself.

Character: Jin Aznable
Reason for Echo: Yoko asking if Cain was a member of the EMC, his former workplace.
Type and tier: Type 1, Memory
What is returned: He remembers the coworkers that he used to work with at the EMC, some that are clearly part of the data that comprised Enter.

originaloddcouple: (I Say Miria)

[personal profile] originaloddcouple 2014-04-19 07:35 am (UTC)(link)
Second Echo - Whoops, my mistake! I think I meant that Miria described the memory of Czeslaw bleeding to Isaac and that's how he remembered it. Poor phrasing on my part.

Fourth Echo - That's... a reasonable argument. Isaac frequently interacted with police during his crime spree in the 1930s. And while he did continue this spree well into the 21st century, I'm gonna go ahead and say this echo is the ability to tell if he's talking to a disguised Prohibition-era cop. Mostly for the hell of it. At some point, I'll simply review canon to see if this ability carries over to present times.

I believe it is, in a 'this stuff is real' sense, as opposed to seeing it in movies and comic books. Not that she's surprised some of the Numbers have it.

Player: Dusty
Character: Deren Karim | Setsuna F. Seiei
Reason for Echo: Hearing Tieria's name for the first time.
Type and tier: Memory | Tier 1
What is returned: Setsuna saying 'Tieria Erde' in Episode 7 of Season 1 just after Tieria started a comm link conversation. The image he'll see is his Gundam following Dynames (which he knows is 'the green one') through a ravine with a small image of this 'Tieria' in his purple flight suit. It's a super short memory that he'll shake himself out of quickly.

Reason for Echo: Seeing the alien broadcast!
Type and tier:Tier 1, ability
What is returned: Finland's taste in food/cooking. While he has the technical ability to cook and can make things that other people like, he has notably odd taste and will mix up flavours and textures and eat things that other people regard as inedible.

I never want to forget any of our exciting conversations~~~!" Just the memory of this crazy bird-woman saying that, yes.

Player: Myf
Character: Miles Lewis
Reason for Echo: Mordin giving him the quick version of Krogan history.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Knowledge
What is returned: Knowledge of Krogan history as all good little Krogans would know it.

waltharius: (good night and joy be with you all)

[personal profile] waltharius 2014-04-19 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Zae
Character: Walter
Reason for Echo: Alien broadcast plot echo!
Type and tier: Tier 1, item
What is returned: Mask of Strength - mask that increases physical power a bit
hotshots: (Default)

[personal profile] hotshots 2014-04-20 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Ken
Character: Neil Dylandy
Reason for Echo: Recurrence - Deren lists off three Gundams here. Only one of them triggers Neil.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: Basic memory of the Gundam Exia, a close ranged fighter unit that focuses on bladed weapons, with the distinct feeling it's designed to combat their own sorts of machines if necessary.
nevergivesup: (the best of plans)

[personal profile] nevergivesup 2014-04-20 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Jax
Character: Jake Harrison | Snow Villiers
Reason for Echo: Meeting Sierra and seeing her with her pink hair for the first time + looking around for her and spotting her waving to catch his attention and calling out to him
Type and tier: Tier 1, memory
What is returned: Brief memory from the novella of him looking for her on the beach and her waving at him from a distance and calling, "Snow! Over here!" ...And him immediately running over. He gets all the important echoes.

Reason for Echo: Alien broadcast plot echo
Type and tier: Tier 1, ability
What is returned: Beginning of his physical strength increase. Not anything beyond human capability yet, but he's not much of a fighter normally. Now he'll be strong as though he's trained to box even though he hasn't.
foil: β™Ÿleo baskerville (βͺ 𝐃𝐄𝐅𝐀𝐔𝐋𝐓 ❫ post-65)

[personal profile] foil 2014-04-20 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Player: Alice
Character: Akira Kazahaya / Leo Baskerville
Reason for Echo: Canon Recurrence: Hearing someone referred to as 'Hatter' in this thread. In canon, Vincent Nightray refers to Xerxes Break solely by the name 'Hatter' due to Break's chain being the Mad Hatter. Although Elliot and Leo would more commonly call him by Xerxes Break, Leo would have heard him referred to as Hatter by Vincent after Vincent becomes his valet.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory.
What is returned: Only a flash of Xerxes Break's (this loser's) face with the knowledge he is called 'Hatter'.

Hello again.

Player: Ken
Character: Lily Tsukuyomi
Reason for Echo: Recurrence - Jasmine's specific description of the memory she just received.
Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory
What is returned: The same memory - Yuri fighting Dark Precure, blocking her blow, Dark's comment of "you are me," and being saved by a mysterious man in glasses when Dark's about to blow her head off as the specific highlights. Basically, the attached icon.
peacefulwinter: (I'm certain of it.)

[personal profile] peacefulwinter 2014-04-20 05:08 am (UTC)(link)
Player: MaxSalsa
Character: Winter Adamas
Reason for Echo: Alien speech, viewed on television during the nightly news.
Type and tier: T1: Ability
What is returned: Winter will be regaining some of Rikka's strength and dexterity that's accessible to her outside her form as Cure Diamond. Rikka demonstrates a few times in canon that while she isn't as strong as Diamond is by any means (or as strong as certain other Precure are as civilians; I'm looking at you, Yuri), she's got more than enough to hold her own in a pinch, even outright sparring with Makoto - who is the next best thing to the royal guard - and keeping up. Winter will regain about half of Rikka's additional power, giving her strength, dexterity, and flexibility, but not huge amounts of each; I don't think a tier 1 Echo is strong enough to really do something massive. The difference will be noticeable - she will be approaching the point of "oops, I snapped a pencil" that she was hoping to avoid, for starters - but she won't be able to do anything too crazy.

Reason for Echo: Vermini hunting in the streets of Vegas.
Type and tier: T1: Memory
What is returned: Winter's going to be getting a memory of the specific things Rikka's team fought: the Selfishness. Literally, they're expressions of the selfish thoughts in a person's heart, turned into monsters that cause chaos and in turn generate further selfishness. The average person recognizes they're being unreasonable and dials back their feelings; the generals of King Selfishness take advantage of the exposed weakness and draw the selfish feelings out of the victim's Psyche, basically their heart. When that happens, the general for the day is able to turn the heart into a monster, and it's the Precure's job to stop that monster and purify the Psyche inside it to save the host. All of this is pretty much part of the opening handbook, and is explained by Cure Sword relatively early on. The vast majority of this information is just good stuff to know, even if it doesn't tell Winter anything about the people she was associated with. Oops.

So many late ones, blame my old hard drive...

Player: Kaito
Character: Lloyd Irving
Reason for Echo: Pink lights over Vegas on the news
Type and tier: Tier 2 ability/memory
What is returned: The ability to use Demon Fang and remembering how to do it. It's a very basic sword attack that shoots energy forward which also does some damage.

Character: Lloyd Irving
Reason for Echo: Aliens landing
Type and tier: Tier 1 item
What is returned: A bottle of Palma Potion. It's this pinkish liquid you need for some weird plot points that's apparently "for adults". Ignore that they sell it to you anyway.

Character: Nico/Nick Angell
Reason for Echo: Pink lights over Vegas on the news
Type and tier: Tier 1 item
What is returned: His deck of Mythomagic cards (without the figurines). It's only the cards, so there are no instructions or memories of how the game works.

Character: Nico/Nick Angell
Reason for Echo: This conversation with Maria
Type and tier: Tier 1 memory
What is returned: Being in a hotel lobby and going away from his mother to play with Bianca. He won't recall their names or their exact relationships to him, and the memory will stop before Hades arrival and therefore well before the death of his mother. It includes both of them because this Maria is the reincarnation of Bianca and his mother's name was Maria di Angelo which is pretty close to hers now.

Character: Nico/Nick Angell
Reason for Echo: Aliens landing
Type and tier: Tier 1 ability
What is returned: The ability to summon a dead spirit to him. It's a process involving things like an offering and an incantation, however, and he has not regained the memory of these parts so he won't even realize he can do it yet.

Character: Nico/Nick Angell
Reason for Echo: Seeing this post by Maria
Type and tier: Tier 1 memory
What is returned: Feeling hurt at the mention of Artemis, because in canon he was hurt when Bianca chose to join her Hunters and leave him.

[personal profile] thebalrogslayer 2014-04-20 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Gilbert
Character: Gabriel/Glorfindel
Reason for Echo: This poem being brought up in relation to him by Julien. "What’s that tiny star on your left temple?" echoes the kind of description that elves are often given. ETA: if that isn't enough Julien brought up Elbereth, the star goddess, in another tag.
Type and tier: Tier 1, mental
What is returned: The elven fascination of and reverence for the stars.

Type and tier: Tier 1 - Memory

Type and tier: Tier 1, Memory

[personal profile] espigeonage 2014-04-20 05:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Joysweeper
Character: Julien
Reason for Echo: Alien broadcast
Type and tier: Tier 1, umm... either physical change or ability.
What is returned: Bird sleeping patterns. In short he becomes a very light sleeper, but also one who can get to sleep very easily and can do it sitting up or standing and leaning on something. He still sleeps deeply sometimes, generally in the dark in enclosed safe spaces, but otherwise wakes quickly and completely at minor provocation.

Reason for Echo: Playing with and closely inspecting Gabriel's ears. They're pointy, but still more like human ears than anything else. Birds don't have ears like that.
Yuuya had a lot to do with humans and was used to them, but he didn't grow up sharing a house with any and they were probably strange when he was little. Also, human ears are like wattles or something.
Type and tier: Tier 1
What is returned: Some fascination with human-type ears, finding them weird and interesting and kind of funny. It'll fade back with time and exposure to lots of ears, but they'll never quite seem the same.
