-BASICS-
Name: Oracle Echo

Type: Emitter

Description: The user possesses the extraordinary ability to sense, see, and hear past events that have occurred within specific locations, as if they were an oracle deciphering echoes of history. These past events, or echoes, manifest as vivid and immersive visions of historical events, allowing the user to gain unique insights into the past. The Quirk is constantly activated and cannot be deactivated unless affected by a Quirk like Erasure.

Special Feature - Soul Conversing: If a soul or spirit is present in the vicinity during the user's observation, the user can establish a unique connection with them through the past event. This allows them to communicate with the spirit as if they were present during that particular moment in history. However, this feature is rare and requires specific circumstances to occur.

Supermove - Spirit Resonance: Refers to the advanced technique in which the Oracle can summon a nearby soul or spirit from the present into the past event they are witnessing.

-DRAWBACKS-
Emotional Turmoil: Witnessing past events, especially those that are traumatic or emotionally charged, can lead to intense emotional turmoil for the user. They may experience feelings of sadness, fear, or anger while witnessing historical tragedies or conflicts, impacting their mental well-being.

Dissociation and Disorientation: The overlapping nature of echoes and the constant influx of historical information can lead to disorientation and difficulty in distinguishing between the present and past. The user may struggle to maintain focus on their immediate surroundings, affecting their ability to respond effectively in real-time situations. Upon entering an echo or echo barrier, the user may feel lost or as if they are in-between realities.

Sensory Overload: Constant exposure to the echoes of the past may result in sensory overload, overwhelming the user's senses. This could lead to headaches, fatigue, or other physical and mental strain.

Isolation and Disconnect: The constant exposure to echoes of past events may lead to the user feeling isolated or disconnected from their immediate surroundings, as they are constantly attuned to historical resonances rather than the present moment.

Conversing: Engaging in soul converse with nearby spirits or souls from the present may leave the user vulnerable or fatigued after the interaction. The strain of such communication can impact their ability to respond swiftly in critical moments. The soul can potentially have the ability to possess the Oracle.

Difficulty in Concentration: The ability to focus on the present might be compromised due to the constant presence of echoes from the past. This could affect academic performance, work efficiency, and day-to-day tasks.

-LIMITATIONS + WEAKNESSES-
Limited Interactivity: The user can only observe and gain knowledge from the echoes; they cannot physically interact with the past events. This limitation hinders direct intervention in certain situations, particularly in combat scenarios.

Spatial Range: The user's ability to sense past events is limited to specific locations with which they have a connection. They cannot perceive echoes from events that occurred outside of their range, which could hinder investigations or historical research beyond their immediate surroundings. However, the closer they are to the echo location, the more they are affected by it.

Limited Application in Present-Day Combat: The Quirk's primary abilities are focused on accessing historical knowledge, making it less effective for direct combat scenarios against opponents with active offensive quirks.

Connection Strength: The effectiveness of the Quirk depends on the user's connection to the location. A weaker connection may yield incomplete or unclear visions, limiting the user's access to historical insights. The user must have a connection to the location, either through personal experiences or possessing extensive knowledge about the place. Locations with weaker connections may yield incomplete or unclear visions.

Echo Intensity: The user does not have complete control over the intensity or frequency of the echoes they perceive, making it challenging to filter out unwanted historical events at times.

Echo Barrier: The Echo Barrier can become a weakness if the Oracle is unprepared to enter it. When the user unexpectedly finds themselves within the barrier, they might experience intensified drawbacks, making it difficult to cope with the overwhelming echoes and whispers. This can lead to heightened emotional turmoil, disorientation, and sensory overload, impacting the user's mental well-being and decision-making abilities.

Unforeseen Entry: The Oracle might unintentionally enter an Echo Barrier while pursuing their duties or investigations, catching them off guard and unprepared to handle the heightened historical resonances.

Environmental Factors: External factors like Quirk interference or environmental disturbances can disrupt the accuracy and clarity of the visions, making it challenging to access echoes under certain conditions.

-STRENGTHS-
Historical Insights: The user gains access to echoes of past events, providing them with a vast reservoir of historical knowledge and insights. This knowledge can be utilized for investigations, crime-solving, and strategic planning.

Emotional Empathy: Through their connection with past events, the user develops a strong emotional empathy. This can be beneficial in understanding and connecting with others who are emotionally affected by historical events.

Strategic Thinking: The Quirk fosters strategic thinking and adaptability in the user. They learn to manage sensory overload, prioritize information, and focus on the most relevant historical insights.

Tactical Insights: By witnessing past battles and encounters, the user can offer strategic insights and tactical advice to teammates during training and actual combat. They can analyze historical strategies and apply them to current situations, making them a valuable asset in battles.

-SUPPORT ITEMS-
Echo Dampening Headset: A specialized headset that can filter and dampen the intensity of echoes and whispers. This helps the user focus on specific events while reducing sensory overload and disorientation caused by the constant historical resonances.

Noise-Canceling Headphones: Noise-canceling headphones designed to block external sounds can help the user minimize unwanted echoes and whispers in noisy environments. These can be worn during everyday life to prevent the quirk from fully functioning within spaces such as classrooms, transportation, and others where their focus must stay on the present.

-TERMINOLOGY-
Oracle: Refers to the user of the Quirk.

Echoes: Describes the sounds, visuals, and emotions of past events that the Oracle perceives.

Echo Barrier: The invisible and intangible boundary that surrounds locations rich in historical echoes. It determines the range within which the Oracle can perceive echoes more intensely.

Whispers: Refers to the faint echoes of the past that exist outside the Echo Barrier's core. As the Oracle approaches the barrier's edge, the whispers become more pronounced.
