Character Death
The deathdate for Rascal 'Sal' Phoenix has been set for July 9th, 2010.

I've already arranged with another player how he's going to die and where.

Some characters are tragic figures, and while this is like escorting my child to the guillotine, this is how Sal 'operates'. I've been mulling over this for some time, and wasn't sure if I should put this up here, but I couldn't let it sit in my chest and fester.

Things are cool! Just carry on as normal. This changes nothing, okay~?

And thank you - thank you - to the Mod for letting me do this. ♥

	Yeah, I've never been one to handle character deaths well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What's funny is...for me, the ultimate sign of my love for a character is when I kill him or her off. But I let that character choose his or her time of death. It's a trust thing, yaknow? They know better than me when they're supposed to go. And two years felt right. Other than that, yeah, I feel ya. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Two years from now....? Wow. That's planning ahead! I'll be sad to see Sal go, I will. :( (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah! Two years, so it's not like next week or anything. I originally wanted to do it in a year, but that's not enough time, I think. Me too, me too. But some characters aren't meant to live to the end. Some die doing what they love. And that's what'll happen to Sal. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well, like they're saying above me, you left yourself a lot of time at least? I'll miss you playing Sal. Who will date Frank now? is joking (Reply to this) (Thread)

	rascal_phoenix 2008-07-25 10:09 pm UTC (link)
	Yes! =D Gives Sal enough time to serve up some real damage before he goes. LOL!!! Sal can haunt Frank. Visit him in the middle of night. Write messages on the fogged up bathroom mirror. xD (Reply to this) (Parent)

	D: I have problems with SH4, where Wally chases you and then you hafta kill him. I salute you for that, even though I'll probably cry when I read it. ~~I luff Sal. D:~~ And so will all my pups. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	rascal_phoenix 2008-07-26 03:43 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, it's sad when you have to kill your own babies D: I know how you feel~~~ Oh, I'll be a sobbing mess. I'll have a box of tissues at the ready, I promise, for you. It will be a sad day. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I completely missed the date at first and was just like 'wait, what' D: xD; (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Sal has an indefinite deathdate and Shinji has three lips. The world is perfect now =D. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Woah, that's something I wasn't expecting...O_O It will be sad when the time comes, even though it's a long way off, but something tells me it will also be most epic. ;) (Reply to this) (Thread)

	rascal_phoenix 2008-07-26 03:46 pm UTC (link)
	I know, it's not like you're thinking everyone's planning character deaths xD. Yes, the other player and I will make sure Sal has a fitting (EPIC) end!!! It's Sal! He's gotta go out with a bang~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lonely_vocals 2008-07-27 02:18 pm UTC (link)
	Nope, true, but it just goes to show how much thought you've put into your characterisation in plotting so far ahead, basically their whole life story. ^^ Yes, and be remembered for dying a magnificent death!! <3~ (Reply to this) (Parent)

	silverknight 2008-07-26 08:28 am UTC (link)
	Wow... ermm, yeah. Wow. And now I wonder if the rpg will even be still alive when that day comes. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	rascal_phoenix 2008-07-26 03:47 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. D: I don't know. I expect it will be. It's up to us to keep it alive! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If the game really does live so long, it will be a very new experience for me. The longest a game went when I was playing was maybe some six months. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	rascal_phoenix 2008-07-26 04:14 pm UTC (link)
	O.O! Just six months? Goodness, no, Chrissy wouldn't let it last just six months. I think a couple people may feel that way, and this is why they sort of rush their plots, but no, I expect this game will have some longevity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

And this is probably one of the reasons why I like this game so much. There's this nice little rule that makes the game go just slow enough so that everybody has the same amount of game time, if that makes any sense.

I have the feeling that if I were still on dial-up and counting my online minutes so that my bill doesn't get too high, it would still be as easy to follow the game threads as it is now.

	Yes, exactly! No running away with trains here, just slow and steady. I think what helps, too, is that it's a handful of people, not a hundred people all fighting for plots. And if someone goes away, everyone is sure to help when they return. We're a family! (Reply to this) (Parent)
