    This could be the case, however since we have not been to Garlemald yet, we are unsure either way.

    We have seen Garleans both:
    Succumb to tempering/imprinting, as well as fall to the influences of the Darkness (CT storyline). If the echo really is hydaelyn's form of tempering/gift, then a Garlean could obtain it as well, probably.


    We have also seen Garlean pureblood defectors. I do not see why a Garlean could not be chosen to have the echo based on these criteria

    However, as said before, this item would not turn the PC into a real Garlean, it would just be used for roleplay which is usually separate from the MSQ events, or to be used as a forehead decoration/gem

    Pureblood garleans have no aetheric affinity I think? Having the blessing of light, let alone being a chosen of Hydalaen would be out of the question. Nor do I recall any true-blood garleans that pertain to the above.

    Sure you can have a forehead gem could glamour, but trying to roleplay as a pureblood garlean is just smacking lore right in the face with the above in consideration.

    People don't generally RP their characters as the Warrior of Light, and separate the main story from their RP canon. Still, a pureblood garlean that happened to defect (which I imagine is rare) and has the echo (which is a rare ability) is kind of a stretch.

    I'd think being able to interact with the past and the other like abilities that the echo offers, would involve aether at some point.
