Really enjoyed the role, and it was fun trying to figure out how to make an unconventional and somewhat underpowered build competitive.

I like to think I wasn't a complete pushover, but it was a ridiculous amount of effort and prepping just to be decent. I can see why thieves get a reputation of being griefers - trying to go toe-to-toe is tough.

The role was an Elf who wanted to be a hero, but never thought he was good enough. He'd look at a Paladin or someone like Drissa and think "I can't be that". Appreciate the pep talks (from about 8 different folks), pushing me towards the Fort anyways.

Drissa - Some of the best times in the character's life were running around with you. I am curious though.. was there a reason you couldn't induct me yourself? I thought it was odd I spent about 40 in-game hours as an applicant, and a good chunk of that was hanging out with you.
I'm assuming there was something behind the scenes, so I don't hold it against you. You're an awesome presence for the Fort.


Enemies were classy all around. After lvl 20 or so, I don't think I ever lost more than 2 or 3 items. I tried to return the favor and give you a decent fight every chance I could, even it I didn't stand much of a chance.

So my hands were tied, sorry. I think Aehwic and I are playing polar opposite hours right now. I'd have loved to induct you, of course you more than earned it. I even had some lines pre-written in anticipation of being able to do so, which I rarely ever do.

I can sympathize with what you said on the other forums. Elf thief is hard mode.

You has a good thing going on, I had big plans for you and am sorry to see you delete. I wish you'd stuck around to get inducted and seen if it got better with fly/prot on demand, but if it's not fun it's not fun. Hope to see you on another soon!

I was really looking forward to mixing it up in hero PK range with you. It could have been fun but I understand why you moved on, good luck with your next.
