Gonna picture the Fractals as these three from now on.

@dvoraen I hide my milk in a mudslide.

Wouldn’t that be a wild ride if Norwood ended up freaking evil?
Like - just - wow.
-
@junipersky Would evil Norwood push Cristoph off his horse?
-
Reflection Norwood absolutely would.

Okay, which one of y’all lives in my neighborhood?

I am very happy to be GMing again. It’s good to stretch those creative muscles and help other people have fun; and also distract myself from other things.

My first event I’ve run in I think a year (if I tried to run one in the intervening time, I uh, straight up don’t remember) and it went well and everybody had FUN and it was so nice. The group that came included a bunch of people I’d never gotten to play with before and they were delightful. Everyone was all in, it was just a really good time.
Thanks to those that attended, I really appreciate everybody.

@IoleRae I had a fabulous time

Made a casual Arx reference in a conversation, and I had to explain what Arx is. Do a quick search to get a link to Ari’s page, and the first hit is a link to when Belladonna knighted Ari.
Getting all dusty in here.
What a time I had there.

Starting a Thrax Civil War plot in November and having nearly weekly gaming sessions to complete 6 separate scenarios, until it finds its way to completion.
I had a lot of fun doing my first long term plot on the game. There were a few scheduling bumps in the road due to RL and other factors, but there was also so much laughter and fun to be had, and so, so much story to tell.
I loved every minute of it.

Random Question
At what point does a roster character become someone’s character and not re-rostered?
What I mean is let’s say SuzieBob has been in play for ten years. Obviously, that would be strange for someone new to take it.
Or AdamMarie has done SO MUCH or has so many secrets, that would be hard to roster.
So when does a char that was taken off a roster become retired from play if the player leaves them, etc?
-
I don’t think there is a hard ‘point’. I asked Kenna to go inactive vs put on the roster because I had done so very much with her and her secret that wasn’t documented anywhere but my brain really I didn’t think anyone else would be able to keep her without constantly running into issues. I would love to go back to her some day? But also my IRL has moved soooo far on it would take some shifts to give me time to play her right.
Norwood will die before I let someone else play him. He is part of my soul and it would be like having a part of me desecrated to see someone else try to play him.
-
@RightMeow My impression has always just been that it’s just a case by case, subjective staff call. If a player had a roster for a significant amount of time, had notable investment into their story, I saw staff respect requests from the player as far as asking them to be set inactive or killed in story instead of rostered.
If a character is given up without that explicit request, my observation is that sometimes the character would be retired if the amount of knowledge and secrets seemed too difficult to put back into play, or if the character accumulated to much mess and drama to give to someone new. I think that, if there wasn’t a specific wish/request from the previous player, that staff generally tried to just approach it in terms of whether or not a new player would have a bad experience.
