Hmm. Thanks for the heads up, though I guess it's too late for my first char. Heh. Might I ask why, though? My impression was that people would be able to keep the forums and the game separate for the most part--is that wrong, or is it something else? If anyone does make that mistake, don't think that I'm the same person here as my char is IG :P

As for dying, so I've been told. Somehow I've managed to avoid it for the most part thus far, though there've been some close calls.
