#143693, "Char Challenge prompt" In response to Reply #0
The peek behind the curtain was fun last time, so I figured I'd share again. Here was the prompt that spawned Gadorin's role. Hopefully some others will do the same.
Name: Gadorin Race: Human Gender: M Class: Paladin Ethos/Align: Orderly Good Cabal: Your Choice Sphere: Protection Religion: Custom Role Summary: If there is a job that needs to be done, you’re the man to do it. You are battle-tested and you are very concerned with protecting others. You consider yourself the last bastion that will protect the innocents that take shelter behind you. Characteristics/Motivations: You feel like you’ve been separated from your home and you are disconnected from yourself. You long to return to feeling whole again and will seek out answers on how to make that happen.
Description Guidelines: You are stalwart and blocky, scarred and grizzled from war, which is in contrast to your young age.

I didn't delete because of one death. Or any of the deaths. The last one was particularly stupid (I wimpied out of Champions Stand, when I wasn't in any actual danger), but not the reason for the delete.
I deleted because the playerbase as a whole was consistently and utterly disappointing. Far too many people lately have forgotten that you can't ever "win" CF.. it's all about mutual fun.
And also I was frustrated at what seemed to be an intentional decision to not make me a Maran. Looks like that wasn't the case, but it sure felt like it at the time.
