4 o''clock AM, Day of Thunder, 24th of the Month of the Dragon on the Theran calendar Ravenoth perished, never to return.

Well, first off, I played Loranessa.

You guys might have noticed that Ravenoth promptly disappeared when
Loranessa started getting very active. This is because I generally
like to focus on one character at a time.

Sadly, however, I loved playing Ravenoth for a long time. Through
thick and thin I was there with this character. Towards the end, when
Scion became all but non-existent, there was little for me to do, for
I had done tons of things within my role already, and felt as if I was
asking way too much to obtain my final goal...a kind of transformation.
(Was I right in assuming it was too much, Shokai?)

So it became stale, as hero's so often do. I actually wanted to
rekindle Ravenoth and Imm him, but after having to leave him for about
a week (due to internet problems) I rolled up Loranessa so I could
have some fun while I waited on Ravenoth's more "serious" scenario's
to occur. But, oh well.

To Shokai:
I don't know if it was you who empowered me (Actually I'm really
curious who was responsible for reading through my ridiculously long
role and playing along.) but I have a lot to thank you for. As always,
I come back to you at some point. You're just the coolest Imm. I
was Khaken waaaay back in the day, as well as Orelian and, much more
recently, Amithor. Ravenoth was intended to be my signature, and
final, stab at a Maran...but it didn't turn out the way I wanted to
in the end. I'm sure I'll be back, if you can tolerate one of my
characters again.

Brigade:
Johan- You're the #####. You know you're the #####. I'm glad to have
been able to pal around with ya. Keep on kickin'.

Zardik- You, my friend, are also the #####.

Puelvelol- From what I saw, your RP was always pretty steady, and
once you got in Maran, it seemed to grow even more solid. Good job.

Korvahln- Delete for christ's sake.

This cabal is great, and it promotes strong RP as much as Scarab. So
I know that if I really want to get into a character deeply, this is
the way to go. I vote it one of the best all time cabals. It needs
some kind of mortal or lower-Imm leadership. I'd like it if there
could be a time "scheduled" for applicants to meet with Shokai. This
would speed things up for all parties, and give the cabal a bit of
a kick in the butt (that I think it needs). On the flipside, however,
it's slow process assures quality members, which is also important.


My foes:

Viornsra- God you were a beast, and we had a blast trying to kill
eachother. Good job. But you know that.

Dullameh- The bane of my existence. Druids just have a really hard
time with necro's I've decided. Anyway, well done, and good luck with
Undeath.

Damn, it's hard to remember everyone...

Oh well, Other people:

Priolith- I got the impression you were bloodthirsty with Ravenoth as
well as Loranessa. But, you were like a vicious wolf. A good sylvan,
and it's a shame ya went out like ya did.

Albaszn- Always liked ya...damned looney.

Kadeem- We smash! What the hell happened to you?!

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

Finally, I'm just thanking the Imms again for the awesome interaction
I had with you. From including me in the Quest, to answering my own
personal role-requests...it was the best ever, and I really do
appreciate it. I hope I can get some of that again, but if I don't,
oh well, it was a fun ride while it lasted.

If I missed anyone, just let me know, it's been a long time and
Loranessa's life was very all-consuming, so Ravenoth's pals were kinda
forgotten.

Ravenoth, Light of the Wilderness

I'm glad you posted..I don't really know what to say besides goodbye. Really sucks to see you go, we had some fun together. Well, good luck with the next one and all that jazz.

That Whil guy.

DOH! How could I forget you?!

Oops! Anyway, it was always fun having you around. Good luck with the
Lord Elder thing.

Actually i was the one who empowered you and read that long long role. I figured youd put a lot of work into it and done a good job so it would be a shame if you just got forgotten about. After you started going for maran though i let shokai take care of you since you were going to be one of his. Glad you had fun with it

I don't know why, but I always had this feeling it was either you or
Shokai. Leaning more towards you, actually. Thanks a lot. Tell me, did
you enjoy the role, or was it painfully long? I like writing them like
a story, so I figured once one of you got into it, you'd read to the
end.

Oddly enough, I usually write these things when I'm dead tired and
it's about 3am. Anyone else weird like that? I always see all these
screw up's after I already entered the role in, but oh well. =)

Thank you again.

Well... that's quite funny, I knew you on two characters at once. But... I loved Ravenoth. Great character. I found out you deleted him and was just in shock. But... I understand. I hope that you bring another in soon, you're a good Maran.

Actually, I thought that you were a great Maran. So great, in fact, that after one of our conversations/interactions/whatever I realized I should take a break from playing Johan and come back fresh - I'd diverged too far from his role and what I wanted him to be when I rolled him.

Now that I'm back, maybe I'll put it in my role. But I really expected your face to be around a while longer. Oh well. Good luck.

" A druid in Maran?!? Unpossible! "

(insert watching Ravenoth for a few weeks)

" A druid in Maran? Hrm."

(more watching)

" Oh, look...a druid in Maran."

I think that in itself sums up how I felt about the character...but yet I feel the need to say more. I was amazed at how well you walked the fine edge of neutrality and good, since I was waiting for you to become too good and start losing some of your druidic abilities. Yet, it never happened. Well played man, and I'm glad you had fun.

Aw, damn. It was a lot of fun running with you, even if it was mostly just ranking you up. Seemed like our times just didn't jive too well once you got to hero, either that or you started playing Lorn a lot more. (who was also fun to run with) The Maran druid thing I thought was really cool, wish I coulda talked with you a bit more about that.

Anyways, good luck with the next and all that.

Well played. We had lots of times, you're the only person I remember interacting with and enjoying it, aside from Illien.

Lordren,

We had some good fights. Druids are a strange class, and in the beginning you didn't seem to be doing too well. It didn't take too long for you to figure the class out and start sending me off. Too bad you stopped showing up so soon after you seemed really comfortable with the class, we could have had a great rivalry deal going on. Good luck with your next character.

Good bye
