So first of all, I should say that this was my first character since college, when I played for a couple of months. The game is amazing and huge and kudos to everyone in development and maintenance.
I made this character because I remembered how fun this game could be and honestly, it didn't dissapoint. I enjoyed the risk and reward, the immersive roleplaying and the high quality of the fellow players.
That being said, I got to a point where I was sitting in the Inn and didn't really have the desire to venture out. And then the Inn got kind of quiet, which I suppose I'm contributing to by deleting, but my own arch with the character was finished, so far as I was concerned, Real Life just started to seem like something I should be paying more attention to.
What surprised me this time around was how many players were as helpful as they were, something I don't remember last time. Many people were willing to show me around, talk to me IC about everything and I'm sure from time to time, my newbie-ness might have been annoying. But I never felt like I was annoying anyone.
So here are some quick goodbyes:
Uial, Lasentia, and Telene: you guys were amazing to me. The amount of patience coupled with the quality of interaction was the reason I kept playing and why I didn't quit playing sooner when I started thinking about it.
Charlee: you were a lot of fun, though I'm pretty sure all of Thera was speaking to you at once whenever you were around. You were hilarious and interesting, and really, really rich.
Jindicho: you were the other side of Mayael. And you were at once kind and doting and then creepy and stalker-ish, but it really helped me round out my character. Mayael was fickle, and role-playing alongside your character's arc helped establish that and justify her own arc. So, thanks.
Erig and Prindle: my favorite partying companions. I hated that you both disappeared without a formal goodbye, but then again, that's basically what I did. Prindle, you were hilarious.
Hanord: you are effing crazy. I enjoyed talking to you and interacting with you. But again, you're kind of nuts. It's been said before, but I always looked forward to whatever weird note you were going to send. A much needed lighter side of CF.
There's probably several I'm forgetting, but I wanted to hit the higlights. Thanks to everyone, and if I ever get the whim again, I hope to interact with whoever you are next.
