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.

shineonyou: (GET READY FOR CATPLANT)

[personal profile] shineonyou 2014-06-02 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Player: linda
Character: jonas brothers | josuke higashikata
Reason for Echo: Canon parallel-- Russel's getting stabbed here by a very attractive swordfish. The wound is a lot like Okuyasu's during his and Josuke's final fight against Killer Queen and Catplant.
Type and tier: 1, Memory.
What is returned: This scene: cw: gore. He won't recognize any of the people involved, won't know who the names 'Killer Queen' or 'Okuyasu' refer to. However, he will be aware of the fact that he can save the guy in front of him by touching him, but also that doing so might result in his, the guy bleeding out, and the kid's deaths. He doesn't know why or how, though.

Player: Dan
Character: Arthur York
Reason for Echo: Plot Echo; talking to Geoff, June 1st
Type and tier: Tier 1; Memory
What is returned: The memory of Merlin warning him against pulling the sword from the stone just before he does it. Merlin tells Arthur about the tragedy of his future career as King and that he would suffer if he pulled the sword from the stone, becoming an inhuman 'dragon' who would be misunderstood by his people. Arthur's response would be, "I know that as King, I would have to kill many to save many and that I'll be a slave to their whims, but to not accept this would be denying the chance to ever save anyone at all."

Player: Dan
Character: Gabriel Martinez
Reason for Echo: Plot Echo - THE CAR
Type and tier: Tier 1; Knowledge
What is returned: Gabriel will Echo's Garp's knowledge to use the 'Six Styles' techniques which allow the user to utilize their body's extremely well-trained physiques to do ridiculous things like move at superhuman speeds and toughen their bodies like steel. He already has the physique, this is just 'how one uses' that physique.

Reason for Echo: Plot Echo - Talking to Geoff
Type and tier: Tier 1; Memory
What is returned: The knowledge that he was pursuing a man named 'Roger' who was an infamous pirate criminal and that this man was exceptionally dangerous to the entire world.
seriallylucky: (my powers let me show you them)

[personal profile] seriallylucky 2014-06-02 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Player: Kd7sov
Character: Felix/Fred Vandenberg
Reason for Echo: Let's talk to Geoff!
Type and tier: T2, memory/item
What is returned: The memory of Briggs' escape from Alhafra, approximately 3:40 to 6:05 in this video; additionally, the Burst Brooch, depowered.

In canon, the Burst Brooch grants a spell ("Burst", appropriately enough) that can make things explode if they already have large cracks in them. One of the most plot-relevant explosions is a rock that's pinning the mast of a damaged ship - specifically, the ship on which the pirate Briggs makes his getaway. But the connection is even closer than that: the rock is the last obstacle before NPCs can fix the ship, and as the earlier part of the video illustrates, news of the repair's completion and of Briggs getting out of jail reach Felix very close together.

Woo! One other quick question - even though last minute, this counts for May since it's for the car, right?

He went to the hospital in December to get a cast for a broken arm, but it wasn't an overnight stay.

Player: Josh
Character: Ruby Rose/Robyn Lyre
Reason for Echo: Matt calling her "Red"
Type and tier: Memory, Tier 1
What is returned: Memory of 1:45 to 2:03

Player: Josh
Character: Ruby Rose/Robyn Lyre
Reason for Echo: Plot Echo! Meeting Geoff!
Type and tier: Ability, Tier 1
What is returned: 1 very small part of her Semblance. Basically she has ability to move in small bursts of super speed and leave a trail of rose petals behind her. (not sure how long she can do this for as they haven't gotten into that yet.) Basically she is just going to get the ability to generate rose petals that disappear after a couple seconds as she moves. She wont know how to control this either
