Echo requests

[ourearth]

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.

Please keep in mind that any echo must be triggered by experiencing something for the first time (unless it is a plot echo) and that recurrence echoes may not be gained off-screen: At least the initial trigger must take place in a thread or toplevel. In addition, we always want to hear the answer to three questions: 1. What was echoed? (under "What is returned?"), 2. What triggered the echo? (under "Reason for Echo"), and in case of recurrence echoes 3. Why did it trigger the echo (parallel)? (under "What is returned?").

Is this a memory Echo? If YES, it is approved by default. If NO, please wait for mod approval before playing it out.
Type of Echo: Physical change, power, ability, mental, memory, item or creature.
Link to the ET/DET usage form: ET/DET usage form. (Put "New!" if this is your character's first month in the game.)
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, and strongly resemble a specific event from canon. Picking up a can of baked beans from the store will not cause an Echo if it isn't any different than the times the character has done it before.
What is returned: What the Echo brought back. If the Echo is not a plot echo, please demonstrate clearly why trigger and echo content work as a canon reoccurence.

Is this a memory Echo? No
Type of Echo: Power
Are you using a Double Echo Token? No
Reason for Echo: Walter called Feste out for 'jinxing' everyone by saying it could be worse, and Feste is going to joke back that they'd only jinx people if they were mean.
What is returned: The ability to cast curses- they must be related to the offense that caused them, and can only be done when Feste feels that they have been wronged in some way.

Is this a memory Echo? YES
Type of Echo: Memory.
Are you using a Double Echo Token? No
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence, skeletons where there should not be skeletons. This is Russell's first time seeing a real skeleton up close and 'sleeping' on the ground, rather than plastic models hanging around art or medical locales.
What is returned: Memory of finding his brother sleeping by the Waterfall sentry station, lecturing him, and Sans glancing up at him in a wink.

[ourearth]

Accepted!

[ourearth]

Is it just a pretty object for the moment, or is it functional?

[ourearth]

Is this the first time in their life that someone accused them of jinxing something, or how is this a first-time occurrence?

[fairfeste]

The first time occurrence comes from the joke they make back about only jinxing someone if they were mean.

[ourearth]

That is a pretty huge regain for a fairly weak reoccurence. Could you tone down what's echoed - perhaps limit the severity of the curses they can cast, or say that Feste has to feel massively wronged with a particularly strong emotional reaction?

[tobodlygo]

For now, there's nothing in it. It's just an object, pretty and futuristic looking and with an interface, but there's nothing in it whatsoever.

[fairfeste]

Sure! I was considering making it only minor curses anyway, but thought I'd try and see. :P Would that work?

[ourearth]

Would the limitation "the curse can't significantly interfere with the victim's lives and it can't last longer than three days" work for you? Further echoes could then expand on what his curses can do.

[ourearth]

Approved!

[fairfeste]

Sure! Not significantly interfering with lives is what I meant by minor but I'm fine with a time limit too.

[ourearth]

Approved!

Is this a memory Echo? No
Type of Echo: Power and item
Are you using a Double Echo Token? Yes, from August AC
Reason for Echo: Plot Echo
What is returned: Sadie's ability to wield magic is returned, although she will have exactly zero control over it, alongside the Red Mage crystal. I'massuming that it'll take another Echo to return its magic "containing the memory of all the Red Mages before now" so for now it'll just be an oddly carved ruby the size of Sadie's palm.

[ourearth]

What exactly would the "ability to wield magic" entail? Is it just the theoretical ability, like a base potential that actual things she can do would then have to be added to, or are any actual things she can directly do without additions included?

The item echo of "powerless oddly carved ruby" is approved!

[dragoonrouge]

With aether, it is something that people have. There isn't really any additions to it, all the skills that use aether come from training and learning how to manipulate it. So I suppose what I mean by that is she gains aether but has absolutely zero training or zero knowledge on how to use and control it.

[ourearth]

Approved!

Is this a memory Echo? YESx2
Type of Echo: Memory
Are you using a Double Echo Token? Yes; the second one gained here.
Reason for Echo: Plot Echo
What is returned: First, the memory of taking the three tests Malcolm Decter used to determine whether or not Webmind was just a human with a really fast internet connection.
Second, the memory of drowning himself in data by trying to link to too many sites at once and process the data simultaneously.

Reason for Echo: Creepy apple plot echo
What is returned: A monster cellphone! Distinguishable from human cellphones in having many cooler features, like extradimensional storage spaces and access to Undernet...!

But alas, it's not yet magical.

And Undernet isn't actually accessible, because there's no monster internet in this planet. So it's just a cellphone with a few contacts who don't pick up, photos of skeletons and action figures and various things, with a fully charged battery but no charge cable, based on alternate future human technology, whose recharge port may not be compatible with anything currently existing. At least he can probably replace the batteries.

[ourearth]

Approved!

Neither recharge port not battery beds/connections are compatible with anything that currently exists, but perhaps that can engender CR with other characters who have some technical know-how?

[ourearth]

Approved!

Are you using a Double Echo Token? No
Reason for Echo: Halloween plot echo
What is returned: The ability to access the umbra while in a trance-like state. Her body stays behind, but she gets a second kind of dream-body for her time over there.

[spaghettimonster]

Ooooh, limited lifespan and invitation to reach out, I like it. And that gives me the final piece for a network post I had been drafting, thank you!

Reason for Echo: Plot echo: Halloween
What is returned: His superior strength, but the amount is adjusted to his body - so he is superdoggily strong for a Pomeranian, but for a human that would probably still amount to about average strength.
