7 o''clock PM, Day of Freedom, 18th of the Month of the Dark Shades on the Theran calendar Femsilsol perished, never to return.

One thing I have always enjoyed is coming up with backstories and roles for people. There are some gifted roleplayers out there who have trouble coming up with concepts, and though I usually can't play them myself, I am fairly gifted and making them up.

So if you want to play a certain class and are having trouble coming up with a roleplay idea for it, send me an email, I would be happy to help as I can.

jrjw@telusplanet.net

See, its dragging you back in already. I'll only write roles for people, I won't play them honest.

Hope you fare well with your separation, I'm making the same journey myself (third time's the charm). Don't have the wife and kid, but my dog hates CF with a passion. And you got five hours sleep a night? how luxuriant, I get three. Slap another large bore needle of CF in that little vein there between my toes. please, man, please.

And I'll forgive not mentioning me in your farewells after all my long, hard work making you what you were. *sniff*

good luck, you don't happen to do real estate in Portland, OR? gonna be buying a house there this summer...

I do remember you very well, and you were instrumental in my Heroing as well. I knew I would forget people, hehe

And my Real Estate practice is in Calgary, Alberta, Canada

It was always fun helping people out. I just love the concept of ranking and such. When ever I can get in on it and have the time I always helped out. To bad we didn't get to explore much together.
well peace.


Keilliston Nezins.

I want to play this gnome..warrior..maybe a mace spec? I want him to be a battle rager..but I can't think of a role for him!

Can you help me out?

Gabe

Bela, you may be straying from CF, but you'll never be far. Good times, good times. I think I'm going to make another gnome mace spec just for you.

If you rack a bear in the nuts, be prepared to die.

Well ... it's been one hell of a ride since Maple.net but I do believe I need to move on to bigger and better things. First things first.

------------------------

Femsilsol was probably one of my most fun characters I have ever had. Mainly because he managed to pull together a fair amount of allies from all over, and that gave him a fair amount of exploring and interacting to do. He was Utility/Defense and had Deer/Scorpion/Ostrich/Hare/Orangutan/Crocodile. Crocodile is the most amazing tank there is, hands down, no question. Anyone who travelled with me in some of the situations we got into will agree with that. I saw things with this character I hadn't seen in the last 7 years, including his fateful trip to the Inferno. I was the Magistrate in Tar Valon, and let me tell you I saw enough action there, not what I was expecting. I didn't get into tribunal until lvl 46 so I was a patient sort. One of my favorite things to do was goad Criminals, and those of you who were frequently in trouble with the law know what I mean.

Futaleufu - I think your doing a great job with the Tribunals. Your quieter than I expected for a bard Provost, but that's just me.

Queesha - If I would have stuck around I have a feeling we would have explored every square inch of Thera. Always had a good time with you.

Aenail - Thought you were a fun Bard, DRUNK. Sorry about how some of those things .. ended.

Jesrelres - A strong and steady rock of the Tribunal, the laws are tatooed to your backside. hehe. I have little doubt that you will be the next Provost.

Farnsworth - We really didn't have many in depth conversations, but I must say we went down with a bang, thanks again.

Straklaw - Whenever you were wanted I knew that you were going to be passing through Tar Vaon. I have no idea how many times you spinebroke me and then just passed through, it was a blast

Griimbling - Always had a blast interacting with with you. Your a fun character, and one who I fought both with this character and with my Felar Dagger experiment .. Rrelelies. Still up on you. Hehe.

Thornacrull - Knew you as Rrelilies and fought you as Femsilsol. That last battle on the river made me laugh, you and the invoker fighting me, and you just plainly asking if I would please die this time. Hehe. Sorry about the Coward bit, it was Femsilsol honest.

Each and every Immortal - A heartfelt thank you

Tsyla, Keilliston, so many others I am forgetting .....

No I didn't delete because of losing my set. Getting a fair hp set is easy for a Shifter. But man it was nice while I had it.

-----------------------------------

I was laying in bed the other night, about 1 am and I started thinking about where I am in life, and some new challenges I am taking on. I am 30 years old, have a wife and two kids. I am in the process of finishing up my Real Estate license and have been accepted by the #1 brokerage in town, things are good. Then my thoughts drifted to CF and I started thinking of char class cominations, and roles etc etc. and fell asleep around 3. This .... is the problem. I really dont trust myself to be able to restrain my playing. When I go to bed, I ALWAYS think of CF at least a little, something I have done, or is coming up etc. Plus my "just one more hour" sessions that leave me with 5 hours of sleep a night. It's time I took the same amount of dedication I have put into playing CF, and put it into other areas of my life.

I love CF, there is nothing like it anywhere. All of you reading this note know that. The immortals here are truly dedicated to making this world better for all, and to looking down at their creation with something akin to a parents love, I would bet the farm on it. When I think of the 10's of thousands of man hours CF has been around and changing, and all of it for free ... it shocks and amazes me, and I am so happy that someone took the time to create something for me (and you, and you) to enjoy so much. Maybe I am going on and on a bit much in this aspect of my note, but it's my opinion that far to many people take this game for granted, and forget that CF doesn't exist in a vacuum, and a hearty "Good fucking job!" should be offered up on occasion.

I am basically the King of rank 30 something characters, and I do believe I have had at least one of each over the years. All started with Beladorizid, the Paladin Knight of Thera who married a AP (who is now (or was) an Imm if memory serves *wink Dylan*. Marsuel, the first (and only if I remember right) Conjurer tat'd follower of Uller. Krikeles the Mad Prophet of the Lurker ... just to many to count, and I enjoyed them all.

I enjoyed my time here, won a few role contests, met some great people. I only hope any new players reading this have half as much fun with CF as I have had over the years.

Beladorizid

Holy ##### you were Krikeles the Mad Prophet of the Lurker. Man i used to run around with you for hours. I don't remember the name of my character but i do remember you. Very cool character. You did a hella good job. Too bad I did not have a character that was old enough to interact with Femsilsol, i am sure i would have enjoyed it. Sad to see you go but hopefully you will prosper in your new found job.

Good luck

Well... t obe honest, I despised you. At the beginning, I tried to interract with you, but it all ended up with insulting me. Everytime I heard something from you, it was insults. Later, I simple ignored everything that you would tell me, since there would not be anything else but mocking.
And you ran from us on the river, didn't you?

Actually ya, but only to try and draw you to Futaleaufu on the docks. Didn't work. Hehe

I fought you far more with Straklaw. For what it's worth, OOC I think you play a great Drow healer. Femsilsol didn't see it that way is all. Good luck

Before going there, I scanned and saw Futaleufu. Hell, we would slay you, should my healer don't like the bard! He saved your butt - you've been deafened, and, I suspect, you almost had no mana to stay in form, while we both had plenty left.

Thanks for the good words. Trying to play non-basic one despite all my rewards.

Here is the very end of the fight in question

---------------

<1012hp 684m 699mv 19728tnl> You hiss at everyone, can't they see you're dangerous?
Thornarcrull is in perfect health. (7 / 7)

<1012hp 684m 699mv 19728tnl>
Thornarcrull's defilement scratches you.
Thornarcrull's defilement scratches you.
Esendor's burning touch misses you.
Thornarcrull is in perfect health. (7 / 7)

<1004hp 684m 699mv 19728tnl> flee
North of the Docks


A perch swims here.
You flee from combat!
Frantic and thrashing you scream as fire consumes you!
Your immolation scratches you.

<1017hp 684m 695mv 19728tnl> s
Returning to your jurisdiction, you go back on duty.
On the Docks



<1017hp 684m 691mv 19728tnl> vig
The searing pain of your immolation momentarily distracts you from your task.

<1017hp 684m 691mv 19728tnl>
Frantic and thrashing you scream as fire consumes you!
Your immolation scratches you.

<1027hp 684m 691mv 19728tnl> guardcall
With a subtle gesture, you signal the Spire's lookouts for aid.
Two guards come to your rescue!

-----------------------------

At 10 mana an hour .. well I could have stayed in form til the next Ice age. Hehe. I also ALWAYS carried recall pills from the Spire just in case.

But yes, this one one of many many battles we had, your very tough for a healer

.

You didn't mention me!


Well not really, since I didn't interact with you as much as other.

But when we were in hell and I stole that thing from you and replaced
it with a counterfeit, I was just waiting to see how long it would
take for you to notice. About 10 minutes. It was just funny watching
you remove your item casting identify about 4 times, comparing the
two. I was laughin my ass off in RL because I knew exactly what you
were thinkin at the time.

Gastaad

Very well done my man. I wish you luck with your family and career. There comes a time in all of our lives when we say... I must give up CF, I must! But then the CF crack whore comes knocking at your door again, grabbing your crotch and pulling you back...

I hope you get away this time, really, I do! If you succeed, PLEASE TELL ME HOW!!! (goes off into GTA Chatterbox reference... Tell me how, and I will give you a big, big kiss... like I give a woman... but I am not going to give you a big kiss, not a kiss like I give a woman, or even a donkey, because... because... you, do not know.)

Unlike you, I at least have some time available for this sort of thing. You have contributed a great deal to CF and it is nice to see the Immortals getting some much needed and heartfelt appreciation. Much success in all you do, and hey, whenever you get a few free hours in a week, or some more self-control ( ) you know CF will be here waiting for you!

Zepachuckle.

Heh. Right when I finally figured out
that thing underwater. You go and delete
on me. Ooh, Well, I can understand why. This
game really does interfere with life. Hell,
Right now I should be studying for Sociology
instead of reading this board and writing
this response. Well, It was fun anyways, I had
the feeling this was coming after that unfortunate
incident down there. I even was gonna help you go
get your clothes back. Good Luck in real life,
you've got wife/kids/job to worry about, which
doesn't leave much time for video crack.

So, Good Luck on not making the Next,
Queesha

To be honest it hurt, but it is not the reason for the delete. It was just .. time for it.

I wish you the best of luck, your a great voker

I ended up with some of your choice pieces

And queesha, that thing under water, cough...me!


Anyway, you were fun Femsilsol. I know how you feel about thinking about CF. I've never enjoyed a character like I enjoy Aenail, for many of the same reasons you mentioned. I don't hold it against you about our little conflict, I was planning to do the same to you. Thanks for the fun, the interaction, and whatnot. When you come back I know we'll run into eachother.
