At 11 o'clock PM, Day of the Great Gods, 19th of the Month of the Old Forces
on the Theran calendar Ijion perished, never to return.

Race:	arial
Class:	assassin
Level:	41
Alignment:	Neutral
Ethos:	Neutral
Cabal:	BATTLE, the BattleRagers, Haters of Magic
Age:	25
Hours:	108

First assassin since the hellfire days, probably my fifth honor guy, only one of which I ever heroed. I'm not an RP junkie, but living in a vacuum kind of wears on me. I tried to be as kind as possible in regards to killing and looting, with the exception of one guy who just annoyed the #### out of me. One successful assassinate out of I think half a dozen half-assed attempts. If I stalked it was usually just because I was waiting for you to come out of a guild/cabal or stop flying. Just don't have the patience for assassination. That's about it.

Mind giving a road map of your solo climb to hero?

I;ve only managed to get a couple elves solo to 38.

Vallas and Palantas.

The hero I did was a neutral warrior, don't even remember exactly what I ranked on. For this one, regular lowbie stuff. 15-25ish was Arkham crypts, 25-30 was chessmasters, 30-35 was maus, 35-38 was Draenettie, 38-41 was dark arials. I threw in various other spots here and there. Tir-Talath, Barovia, Blindenstone, Aran'gird, etc. but only for a session or maybe a level. Being a goodie may have made it faster since most stuff was evil, but always nice to have numerous options, or having chessmasters repop about the end of a run since killing all the pawns instead of half. Think I got in to battle at like 28.

you kinda surprised me as I would run around and get places and you would have already killed everyone and not said a word over cb. Wish we could have interacted more.

Foolishly self-inflicted role. The only thing that really interested Ijion was honor, so it left little for him to talk about, plus he didn't believe in preaching. Would answer questions but not just start a sermon. Once in awhile I'd speak up just to make sure I still could.

I liked Ijion and respect his beliefs. not sure why you went away though, seemed like you had a good thing going.

Honor character = mind-numbing isolation

At least for me.

When we talked, it was my first character to play with that religion. Didn't understand how hard it is to play like that. Tried to answer you as honestly as possible. Should have qouted what I read instead of being honest.

Liked and hated you at same time.

If you're who I think, as a player I think your take is perfectly valid, as the character wasn't worth wasting his time on. Now how you can develop a like/dislike view from a five minute conversation...
