I've had 137 pcs. I haven't died in a really long time. Its not that I always stick to low-level aides or House crafters, I just like a 'vanilla' lifestyle, the perspective of a completely normal person of low or very low rank. One of the 90 or 99%, think its closer to 90 once you start counting out the hunters and mercenaries. The excitement, fear, poisonings and contracts other players find normal are something special for me. I find this a bonus. I imagine I'm pretty boring to watch.
I have about a dozen pcs from a previous account that weren't counted but they were all stark raving newbies so they don't really count.
I have this really weird desire to experience death again, because its been so long and I enjoy revisiting clans/roles/experiences that I've had before.
I bet some of you have had 1000 pcs. Old-timers from the days of Thrain Ironsword.
Total under 50 since 2002.
Not from the days of Iron Thrainsword (started in 2002), I've had 134 characters in total (with significant breaks from the game over the years).
I counted them when I created the current one: 17 since 2003 / 2004.
I even kind of remember all of them. I don't play throwaway PCs 'cuz I only enjoy the game if I'm super stoked about my character concept. 2 PCs were sort of an experiment, though, and both of these got stored.
45 since about 2003/2004 when I started college. Most died because "I gotta kill that duskhorn for zero reasons!" and getting devastated.
Of the 45, there have been maybe 6 that had any real impact on anything, and the majority were recent. Now that I understand how to just sit around and RP, not facecheck every scrab I see.
Currently on PC number 50, starting 2012. I do suck at this game.
Thought it would be fun to break it down:

Weird. I really thought I'd played more dwarves than that.
27 since 2001, 9 of them being short-lived newbie characters in that first year. So basically 18 since 2004 due to a long break after the first year.
Hundreds.
Most of them are super short lived. It usually takes a few between ones I actually get into.
The longest lived of them was about a RL year. They were a fairly well known rogue witch about a half a decade ago.
26 since 2001. I took 2 or 3 several year breaks though, from like 2005-2008(mostly due to college) and then I was on and off from 2013-2014.
I had about 10 of those that were under 5 days played
About 7 that ranged from 10-20 days
33 days
45 days
60 days
66 days
96 days
TWO half-giants, though I really only really played one of them. I tried a dwarf once and a half-elf once. They didn't last long. Did a wiggler once, and they lasted like a second.
Almost all my PCs were Merchants, Warriors, or Rangers.
Ranger: 6
Warrior: 11(mostly under 5 days played)
Merchant: 6(none under 10, and most 30+)
My PCs are horrible at taking risks. :-D
I think about 79 now, since 2002. Something like that.
From March 2012... like seven?
Been a while since I've looked at my account notes. It's somewhere in the 20s since characters were tracked, a few before that so around 27 I'd guess.

1) Valentine - Dead
2) Mitt - Dead

14 since 2002.
I guess I've had about 60 or so.
This year. :)
17 total, most memorable to me being my most badass warrior who worked for Kurac, Wyrm, and the first Burglar I played, Grelch, who in less than 2 days played got into more shit than I managed on 24 days with Wyrm. There's one more I really enjoyed, but was only about 6 months ago.
Most deaths are to other players/storage, and shortest life was on my first assassin, who poisoned himself 2 hours in, closely followed by my first southerner encountering a scrab and dying at 3 hours in.
Shortest life ...
One hour and 7 minutes. A desert elf. Fell into a pit filled with angry carru.
Since 2002;

I tend to go through a string of short-lived concepts between long-lived PCs that "click".
I've had about 113 characters since 1998. Most of them were insignificant nobodies who impacted things at the time but were quickly forgotten. About 7 of those were gladiator-only PC's.
2 nobles. 0 templars. <8 mages. A few muls, a few half-giants (notable that I played my first mul and first whiran on character 8 via special application). Lots of elves, city and desert (though I stopped playing desert elves when I was no longer able to write up my own tribe; difference between iso and too iso is too big for me).
The last 10 PC's I've played started living dramatically longer than before. I mean -dramatically- longer.
Modify:
Death counts:
NPC soldier:10
PC:34
Humanoid NPC: 17
Misc NPC (beasts and such):20
Death trap:
Staff Fury:1 (2)
Staff Roleplay: 4 (5)
Left off a bunch that I wasn't sure of/gladiator deaths because those are gimme PK deaths. Last two have a parentheses number because of one instance where I broke into a staff PC's mansion and had three iterations of the same NPC chase me around the city, dying twice in the process, until she got me. Roleplay, but...not...roleplay.
Moe wins the thread. ;D
Anyway, since y'all posted lists...
1) Shari - Dead
2) Amyra - Dead
3) Serene - Stored (IC suicide with the help of her loving partner for very good reasons)
4) Mylene - Stored (Experiment #1)
5) Debrah - Dead
6) Anjuli - Stored
7) Neri - Dead
8 ) Mirya - Stored (Experiment #2 and also a pretty bad idea at the time)
9) Alys - Dead
10) Zachary - Stored
11) Sheva - Dead
12) Semira - Dead (rogue Krathi with two IC brothers. Super fun, in part thanks to the best Whiran PC I ever played with - anyone remember Gwoshi?)
13) Kairi - Stored
14) Aishe - Stored (Asha, gypo, who retired successful and happy, though she would have been happier if her Nash didn't die)
15) Laya - Dead (Lucky, mindbender. Best friends any of my PCs ever had. Titless trio 4ever)
16) Ayane - Dead (I can't for the life of me remember her nickname, but she was the leggy, face-inked young woman - a rinther who refused to speak until she picked up the southsider accent and was always worried about her uncle or his thugs finding her. Wore a veil most of the time. She was super fun, mostly thanks to a combination of intricate family concept, Decameron <3, and Lantry as her Byn sarge.)
17) Djabenusiri - Stored (could have been awesome, if not for... reasons. 3 year break ensued.)
18) * - Alive and somewhere near you
Almost all of them used nicknames so I hardly recognize their real names myself. 12-16 were probably my all time favorites, with the exception of 13 who got stored very early on to play my gypsy. Sorry, Lexie and Bixan, who had evil plans for that character. I didn't really go to Cenyr. :P

2 Assassins

If anyone remembers Ayane's nickname that she used ingame, please let me know!

Reminds me of my dwarf sorcerer, who believed that the elementalists were nature's response to people being subjugated by sorcerers; his only goal was to protect the mundane from the magickal.
Suicided in the great karma-off. *facepalm*
cutthroat has an impressive dead/storage ratio
Started (really) 11/1/2013
8 dead, 1 kicking.
Started January 31 2015
Had about twenty characters.
I could have sworn I suicided more than that but whatever.
30 since 2009, with some long breaks and one character that lived for 13 years.

no shit. I think I need to make myself a new promise: go out with a bang instead of a whimper.
On number 20 since 2002.
Storing is overdone.
I've had 9 total storages, 2 were forced storages (1 from the clan being closed, 1 from being a leader who couldn't be active enough). Yeah. Go out with a bang, fools! :D

I think I had nine or ten also, one being a semi-forced store where I had a choice to continue on or store, it was when Tuluk closed.
There's never been a storage where I haven't regretted it at least a little.

Thought it would be fun to break it down:
How did you get this data?
I'm on my 49th character since 2003. 1 stored (gemmed Rukkian). Mostly alternating between desert elves and criminals.

Pulled it from my last account notes request.
Apparently I like names that end with N. And storing. There is something of a pattern, though. Stored to take role app, store role, repeat, die a couple, repeat.

I feel like the last three or four have actually been my best roleplaying, as I've been taking a lot of tips from the GDB, and focusing less on goals and achieving things or exploring, and more on just, reacting naturally. That method has proven to provide the most exciting roleplay.
I realize now, I've never played a dwarf.
I love how #8 always gets the shades. 8)
Oh snap, that's the one who should, too!
The shades are the best emoticon on the GDB. I use them all the time. I hate when 8) doesn't translate to shades in other applications and webpages. It's a travesty.
Why not?

okay, I'll bite. I'm tired of using clan alts anyhow.
1) Torgun - Dead, by spiders
2) Afonka - Stored, by Tuluk closure
3) Urzen - Dead, by bahamet
4) Thuran - Dead, by pissed off dwarf in a sparring ring
5) Tulou - Stored, to take family role
6) Dharthir - Stored, for reasons,
7) Redacted- Alive
8) Redacted - Stored
The only storage I don't regret is Tulou (cause her dying would of bummed me out). And Afonka, I guess, but that was Tuluk storin' on me. I would have killed Dharthir with a scrab, except I killed it with 12 HP left and nothing else would aggro on him.
This thread makes me realize how many people must play this game, or am I unknowingly playing with the same people? I dunno, but I don't know a lot of these characters.
Makes me realize how I do not play very safely.
I've had more characters in a month than some of you have had in a decade.

On my Byn Sergeant, I did so much risky, dumb stuff. The truth is, once you cross a certain threshold, it's difficult to die if you're using common sense. And even the gotcha stuff doesn't get you if you're lucky. I had a two year warrior that I refused to store who basically threw himself at a krathi because nothing else was really gonna do it.
One of the reasons why the names cant be recognized is because a lot of people use nicknames and keywords and such.
And holy crap. 98 characters.
20 were stored, including one called "DiddleAlittle"
The rest died. At least 20 or so of these deaths were by Players. Of which I am proud.
The rest were NPCs, falls, starvation, etc. I learned the game the 'hard' (stupid) way.
But I do not play safely :). Once tried to pickpocket a Red Robe while being dragged by my long ear through the templarate quarter, while being totally plastered (/end brag)
My first character was in 2001. I didn't play again for a year and then when I did I had about three years of insignificant nobodies.
I was without a computer from 2005-2009, so there was no Armventuring then. I returned in 2009 for another year of fairly insignificant nobodies.
Of my first 34 characters:
17 died with less than five hours played
15 died with 5-23 hours played
1 made it 1 day, 8 hours
1 made it two whole days
Then in 2010, with my 35th character, I had my weirdo half-elf with 49d8hr on him over the two and a half years I played him.
Since 2010 I've had eight PCs total, but the one who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and got gortoked at 13 hours doesn't really count.
Of my last eight characters (2010-present) six of them have had 24+ days played. I'm not really sure what clicked in 2010, but something did.
I've had 42 characters in total.
25 half-elves
10 elves
4 humans
3 dwarves
2 clanned (one in Kurac and one in the Byn)
I've never stored a character but I have had many an uneventful death. A handful of memorable ones, but mostly uneventful deaths.
Like Dar, I stubbornly learned the game the 'hard' way!
I've learned why longevity is something to really, at least a few times, strive for.
Longer lived chars have an effect on the more rapidly dying chars around them, and their actions can shift the immediate pc culture in ways 30+ chars can't, because there's almost a seniority that comes in any clan for simply having been there, and alive. Outside of clans, less mainstream plots and mini-rpts gain more momentum when those popular chars are involved, just because of sheer inertia, and moreso, new chars being influenced by the ooc knowledge of who's alive and active.
Just having 90% of the playerbase aware your char exists is an achievement that drives a lot of conflict and brings a lot of roleplay opportunity. If you're a raider who's killed a newbie, but you did it well, that newbie won't be as afraid to be raider by the same char, and might relish a new opportunity to react differently than they did before.
Then again, those of us who died to everything and everyone often learn a whole lot while we're doing it. Highborn and Sorcerers beware, there is always 'the wild card'.
Several hundreds I'm sure, since 1996, what started in a small highschool computer lab, led by a dutch 'blue-eyed' teacher who shall remain nameless. hahaha I don't think any of our characters lasted much more than a day even if we were good at it back then. Most of us died during the ongoing crashes that would leave our characters in game mid-combat and when it came back up hours later.. ohhhh yer dead? weird? Better start all over again! :o
I have had a few long lived chars as well, my longest was almost 3 RL years that I played daily. I was an assassin, and I never killed anyone, but it was a great skill set for the character I portrayed. Not all your characters have to use their coded skills to "win"
I've never been a Noble, Templar, Sorc, Psi, Nizaz, or Mul... so don't blame their assery on me :P All those other times.. it was probably me, and I don't feel bad about it in the slightest.
I've had one drovian, two krathis, a buttload of merchants, vivs and ruks. I've played every mundane guild in the Byn, and have an idea of where their strengths in fighting fall at chargen. I keep going back to Kadius like a scorned lover. For the Byn I prefer burglars. They suck, but aren't the invalids that merchants are, and they can listen to your conversations and all that mess. I like my mercenaries to not kick butt that well but be able to hold a sword.
I've had one rogue, a c-elf vivaduan back in the days of main guild witches. I'm pretty sure word about her got around, but she lived in Storm so it really didn't matter. I was introduced to scorpion skellebain on that character. She was not an intelligent person. I hate rogues.
My numbers are not really indicative of the time I've spent playing. I'm like a 2008 or 2009 baby. Even before the magick subguilds came out I have always had a problem with storing characters whenever I wanted a different concept. I think the one that lasted the longest was a Kadian jeweler called Siko, an unmanifested ruk in Tuluk who visited Allanak a couple of times. I think the others sort of expected her to manifest. Nope. She lived for two RL months and then quit. She was a sociopath for whom a normal life was the highest thing a person could hope to have. Also mild-mannered. People got attached to her.

This thread makes me realize how many people must play this game, or am I unknowingly playing with the same people? I dunno, but I don't know a lot of these characters.
I think lots of people use nicknames ingame. I know I do!

What I mean by this is that people will see you as a witch they can befriend, but they will need to do it quickly since you're obviously going to manifest right away or 2-3 days after chargen, right? Yeah, this leads to all sorts of behaviors which I don't see as worth playing the character, although I will still try occasionally to see if I can do it better. Its especially bad for me, since I almost always want to be unclanned.
I think I played a Kadian on my fourth, fifth or sixth character... I didn't understand what logging meant. We were in charge of cleaning the Kadian compound in Tuluk because it was right after the Flood. The rooms were described as being dirty and waterlogged. I still remember that.
nauta has an impressive dead/storage ratio also!
YAY FOR DEATH!!!!

Movers and shakers are so awesome. I'm envious of you sometimes, although you also need people like me who aren't going to be exceptions to the rule.
I've played a single human-looking breed. One. She didn't know it, either. Her parents had the tips of her ears cut off as a child. She was a raging racist. She died east of the Known; her last thought while being killed was "Mom!" She had been looking for her mom, who had turned to the evils of sorcery and left the Known to the east. Her body was probably very delicious to the creatures that killed it.

Totally was.

48) Rambleth - Stored - Joke character.

Made the opal hammer, made the arches in the cemetary, tons of statues. Fun dude with a hobby of manipulating events around Raleris in order to keep the old Winrothol's life interesting.

67) Hunger - Dead

A lot of my characters are pretty short lived, because I try to make sure they all have sometimes quite literal fatal flaws. But still, wow... over one a month for 2016? Vicious.
I wish you had the log from Rambleth. :'(
Account created in Late 2001, Early 2002 (January I think). Though I think I was playing the game before I knew about the GDB, I forget.
Characters registered to you:
1) Elegond - Dead - Died to a Beetle outside Red Storm

They discovered something that is still probably too IC to discuss, but safe to say, it was a monster inside of a mountain. Xavier died saving his companions, subduing them and throwing them to safety.

24) Nanyevet - Dead - AKA Shirt, Haruch Kemad, ran the Eastside for a bit. Was murdered by Quick after not making good on promises from the beyond...Lots of great stuff happened with this PC, opened up my eyes to a whole different side of Zalanthas.

42) Rumps - Dead, don't remember.
43) Karkze - Dead, don't remember.

47) Rhaelin - Dead, don't remember.
48) Visith - Stored, don't remember.

57) Savold - Dead, Tuluki Spy. Worked for both Tenneshi and Winrothol, spying on both, getting paid by both. Ended up working for Kurac, known as 'Haffi' to them. Was hired by the Templarate to spy on Kurac, but ended up getting addicted to spice, which turned him into a spy for Kurac against Tuluk. Died to a spice overdose in the Tuluki compound of Kurac.
58) Herzel - Dead, don't remember.
59) Toumani - Stored, Bynner. Was fun.
60) Hederai - Stored, ex-Negean Faithful Lord, around for the 'end days' of Tuluk and the New Order of the Templarate. Was a bunch of fun. Super sad he and Tuluk was stored.

If it makes you feel better, if Gavin WASN'T a dirty dirty Tuluki, he probably would've joined. He just had too much lust for returning "home".

That would be Marillo Winrothol. I...... may have helped kill you a little bit as Klaygrott. Good times!
Two months shy of my second anniversary:
1. Nyx - stored

Oddly, my two PKed PCs were the two I had intended to keep the longest.
12. Zpider/Moss (dead) Breed/wannabe elf. Rinth rat (VIv) Displeased AoD. The death I regret the most, there was a lot of stories to be lived, but I guess the odds were that they would all end in the jail.

10. Lili (dead) Dung bagger-Kuraci. Provoked a kryl.
9. Esmer (dead) ATV. Provoked a stump.

2. Haw (dead). Orchard grebber. Bumped into d-elf NPC's/
1 .Ctchori (dead). Blue eyed, half elf. Noob. Quit room means Quit Room!
Started this time of year, in 2006, I think. Two year gap between young Gul, and old Gul. Both a liability.
Alright, so since we're doing lists here, I thought that I'd put down mine too. Just a few things to reference on, most of my characters I've ever played were rangers. Also, I died a ton of times because Armageddon was my first MUD I played in my life. The bolded characters are my memorable ones, just for reference.
EDIT: I started off with my first character in 2014 so... That meant a LOT of the later characters had to be censored out.
1) Wolvine - Dead (Tried to argue about slaving in the middle of the Gaj. Dragged away by a PC soldier, then was beaten to death by a HG soldier after trying to fight back. Lame on my part.)
2) Farrowlock - Dead (Did an idiot move back in the Tuluki days by trying to fight a slave crew.)
3) Foctrus - Dead (Also known as Fucktris by the Byn. Abandoned at a caravan in the Salt Flats after a desperate OOC matter I had to get to, then was raptor'd.)
4) Pelavius - Dead (Tok'd)
5) Orilion - Dead (Bleed-out. I think it was from a beast fight.)
6) Reveli - Dead (Rantarri'd)
7) Harvashi - Dead (Gith'd)
8) Tingeri - Dead (Kilori'd)
9) Bilundur - Dead (Forget on how they died)
10) Quinafell - Stored
11) Kentroselope - Dead (Byn contract?)
12) Alavo - Dead (See above, not too sure about this one's death)
13) Ranava - Dead (Aka Hairdo. He was a member of the Byn, and was there during the moment with Lucky. He was kicked out after serving as a runner for two IC years w/o promotion, then he was killed by a snake out in the desert. I just loved him to death.)
14) Nero - Dead (Beast?)
15) Baine - Dead (Bahamet chow)
16) Nurn - Stored
17) Leverex - Dead (Aka Garent. Ended up to be yompar'd in Tuluk. Had a plethora of underground plots going on.)
18) Terrax - Stored
19) Frent - Stored
20) Jinjaro - Dead (Tok'd)
21) Kamon - Dead (My first d-elf, who was part of the SLK. Gith'd)
22) Lan - Dead (HOLY SHIT, is there a lot to say about this Tuluki legend. However, most of his work he did is, by my knowledge, too confidential to speak about. PK'd)
23) Vaxan - Dead (Raider. Found a bunch of dead Tuluki soldiers out by the plains gate and took their armor. Thought he could get away with all of it, but didn't.)
24) Octren - Dead (Raptor'd)
25) Yagras - Stored
26) Tayn - Dead (Carru'd at empty move points)
27-30) Enak, Krant, Axev and Gravass - Dead (Deaths unknown)
31-33) Nox, Aethul and Yalm - Stored
34) Argunbash - Dead (First HG. He was part of the Byn for a good while, and he named his maul Buddy. He also had a bromance with another HG which won't be named, due to existential issues.)
35-60) Short lived/too recent to post about.

63) Sinjinn - Stored - Akai Sjir Dealer, unofficial assistant of Faithful Qoriya, funder of mage deaths galore (I think he racked up over 35 'bought' gems), helped maneuver all the events around the death of the Red Fangs to make sure that the RF were totally and horrifically dead since they pissed him off once over shooting his girlfriend. Made the opal hammer, made the arches in the cemetary, tons of statues. Fun dude with a hobby of manipulating events around Raleris in order to keep the old Winrothol's life interesting.
People never seemed to understand why the Lirathans and Qoriya in particular had such a fond eye for Sinjinn and the Bejeweled Hand elves. What you wrote sums it up nicely. Very good times back then.
Sinjinn <3'd my gypo. ;D Too bad he was an elf. Could never stop being wary around him, and unfortunately, no relationship or even real friendship of any sort. :'(
32! Feels like fewer. I thought this thread looked dumb but you guys seem to be having so much fun.
I had 6 characters before the bio system and I lost my last account notes request so I don't know their details. Brace was one. Hursh, the claw-fingered delf that is responsible for a gross little den near tuluk was another. Sehit, my first tan muark who usually only spoke once a day (if that), was another. Narsul and a couple other nobodies. I don't remember. It begins after that with a 5 year run as...
7. Sevdali - Better known as Veddi. 120+ day TM ranger. Had a gwoshi companion/bodyguard. Had a collection of signet rings and magick artifacts. Tamed a Roc. I'm still sad.
8. Zefe - rinth breed
9. Orsus - mul
10. Amion - whiran
11. Wybryn - my first dwarf, god I just don't do well with dwarves
12. Voroqua - HAHA. Nilazi that wanted to dissect magickers. Big plans. Died almost immediately to code mixups.
13. Dufritun - I dunno byn throwaway
14. Sathias - Templar Ianolius or something like that. I don't remember why I stored. He was fun and had wild talents and shiny fancyboy armor that Samos made fun of.
15. Cezali - Tried another tan muark and the spark just wasn't there. Nobody wanted to party, they were afraid of getting drunk because they had to drive the wagon and shit. Stored.
16. Dagrin - KRATHI MUL MOTHAFUKA part of whatshername's cuddle puddle, though he hated getting recruited and wanted to turn the tower into a chimney fire. Somebody poisoned the water at the base of the tower, and he had no cures. Durrr.
17. Nyun - human warrior. I've never been so crass. Thought it was charming to talk about how badly he wanted to rape someone. DROWNED.
18. Bevin - half-giant. Fun fact, Bevin was the tree troll acrobat at the kansas city renaissance festival when I was a rennie kid. Dude built this huge rope net system high in the trees. Would've broken so many codes and regulations these days.
19. Roark - who knows another mul
20. Horace - Rinthi drovian I think
21. Xuthsula - solitary ranger type, joined like 3 different clans and quit because he just hated everything. I think he got sucked into a death room way out in the reaches.
22. Scyral - Elven sorcerer who heard voices coming from the sewers, teaching him strange words... probably got sewer horror'd.
23. Yedrick - a half-giant modeled after my old boss, an artist blacksmith who just didn't GET people.
24. Koserek - Koe Kurac, lieutenant. Probably a little more fun than even Veddi, probably because kurac was hopping and once Asil died there was a TON of stuff going on.
25. Zaal - ugly and boring, probably stored
26. Ryik - Rinth dwarf, stored
27. Gilin - beats me, bored and stored
28. Erren - somehow the same? stored
29. MYSTERY because I didn't store until this year, though he was created in july 2015 to be Ryan Gosling from Drive (minus the car) and make my wife laugh. Said "Hey girl" a LOT.
MYSTERY from here on out boyo
I simply could not get interested in this game from about 2012 until just a few months ago. Now here I am, forgetting to eat dinner. It looks like I almost never stored until that period. I'd almost always go neck-deep and ride those freaks until they got eaten.
Leaving in only notables or vaguely notable:
7) Sjante / Chases Falls - Sun Runner and Gavram, murdered after giving birth by a tribe mate (in a way that I wasn't thrilled with but I saw it coming and let it). Very upsetting :(
8. Lyvrenxice - Heathen Templar Lyvren. Pretty powerful, had some things up her sleeve she never used. I let her die in order to focus on real life and get past some shit, probably shouldn't have in the end.
9) Corinne / Carrie - Deaf girl in Kurac. Partly secret Nilazi, out to a Kuraci at the time. Didn't like how the magic made her feel, liked her mundane life enough to give it up entirely. The role was tough. It was surprising how isolated it felt to play a deaf PC even when she was highly social.
11) Asennea / Asenne - Whiran, ended up basically in a Gemmed leadership role which got to be far too much for me trying to have a chill out PC.
12) Fortuna / Julisen Kassigarh - Lirathan made New Templar. Hated the new way of doing things, actively refused to train in the manner of the New Templarate, in favour of learning by her own merits, cutting her off further and further from the collective. Still alive and at large.
13) Meriya - Wealthy albino turned businessy woman turned Dust Runner. Too recent to discuss.
15) Elena / Revel of Dawn- Burned out Bahak, died after githy ambush when needing to return home alone after her escort was in a grump with her.
16) [Redacted]
17) [Redacted]
18) [Redacted]
1. Asil -- Guild merchant. Jihaen partisan who became a Kuraci Agent, earned literacy and a bodyguard and other fun things. Died to a harebrained political maneuver that was so audacious I never saw it coming.
2. Stellvia -- Guild burglar, Borsail noble. Noted as a librarian, wrote a lot of books, was a really garbage administrator of the Amber Wyverns and was nearly murdered 2-3 times for poking her nose where it didn't belong before being placed on indefinite house arrest for the same. In my erroneous headcanon she is still alive and became an immortal sorcerer offscreen
3. Samira -- Stored very quickly
4. Atrus -- Stored very quickly
5. ??? -- Current
Okay, maybe Erythil wins the thread. :o
I'd put only the notable ones in, I guess.
Renn - a borsail wyvern Ranger who knew NOTHING about the code. Made it to Corporal without leaving the city a single time and probably couldnt kill a snake if he had to. People kept giving him weapons to identify poison on, and I didnt know there was such a feature, so I just roleplayed it out. Was really into being a physician. Would hire guild/AoD/others to bring him corpses and would dissect them in his apartment. ldescing everything to make it look like a Nilazi den from hell. No one ever accused him of being a gicker for some reason. Met a blind man and performed an operation on his eyes. Outside on the Red's balcony. In middle of a heavy sandstorm. He wriggled a lot, so I had to peraine him. I'm still sad about that, I wish I could see his emotes. I wonder if he survived my operation. I was removing his cataracts, or some such. I sent logs of my corpse dissection to staff hoping for a bandage skill bump, but they couldnt figure heads and tails from it.
My first encounter with the frustration of brew code. Taught Kharad Tor how to make cures by spitting into the bowl and making him eat stuff from there. Then asked him to pay me later on and got smacked on the head.
Setacha - Was one of two RF who created the RF camp in the Canyons of Waste. Probably the reason why in help Tent right now it says, "Do not use tents as a permanent camp. They are BUGGY!" Once tricked a Dune Stalker and robbed her of her knife. Traded it back for a year of loyalty, refreshed for another year if she fails to defeat him in a duel. Died to an SLK Arrow.
Ashad Lyrun - An Akai Sjir who was created middle rank, but was promoted to Dealer. He was fun. I loved thinking shit about Qoriya in front of her. She made fun of Akai Sjir's stoneworking ability, so she became someone he detested for a long long long while. Until she saved the life of some other Sjir. But it was kind of late at that point. I was working pretty complicated schemes with Desert Elves. Ended up dealing with a lot of sorcery with akei'ta'var. During the Long Night, right before the flood, Akei'ta'var offered Akai Sjir to leave Tuluk and come live with them instead. Ashad was disloyal to the Templarate, but still considered Muk Utep as part of his tribe. So he chose not to tell the Elders of the offer. One time, asked a fellow tribe mate to kill himself, because he was a rogue gicker that was quietly ushered out of the city for his walk and came to live with Red Fang. Some Lirathan Templar paid Red Fang to escort him back to Tuluk and he warned Ashad on his way over. I asked him to kill himself before he reached the city. He did it. My deep compliments and respects. Probably how my dislike of the Templarate began. Dead by flood, aka just walking around randomly while blind until Nyr went, "Okey. Dude. I gotta kill you now. You've walked past so many death spots by now"
Ash - Halves. A drovian rinthi elf who was quickly invited into Jaxa Pah along with another Nilazi witch. Which caused the tribe to briefly splinter due to magick hatred. Killed the Nilazi and left the tribe to become this 'guardian' of the Rinth. Since the whole chara concept relied on me being Jaxa Pah, I lost interest in him and tried to actively have him die. The fucker refused to keel over. In the end, I ended up trying to rob a Templarate's Estate. Getting caught by a Red Robe. Tried to pickpocket him as he was dragging him to Jail. In Jail, during an interrogation of the Blue Robe, spammed poems at him. Then tricked him and escaped the jail. Left the jails and went "back" to the Estate to try to rob it again. Got Caught by the Red Robe ... again. Ran with a perma wanted on me. After some dealing and wheeling. Got the Blue Robe I tricked earlier to remove my wanted flag, then give me rl weeks of magick enchantments, as well as magickal artifacts. In return, I've given him a Jihaen Templar armor that he put on some slave and then had him poetically die in an Arena. As well as a bunch of other stuff that later turned into pretty cool RPTs. Eventually died to RF. I do think I could've won that fight and kill both of those RFs (Or at least, I think so. They confused a room and laid a trap in a different location, for me to easily observe them). But ... they were awesome RFs and I wanted to die. So I dumbed it out.
Ripples - A Jaxa Pah burglar. He was a cool elf, because he killed a few people by laying devious plans, instead of doing it himself. Was once hidden inside an apartment where some Templar and his aide were smoking spice and talking sikrit shit. I couldnt help myself and emoted along with them while hidden. Something about the smoke. They rolled with it, I think. Also inserted himself into some random Allanaki well roleplayed out family and ... meddled. Paid a Byn Sargeant to hold an object in his inventory for a year. Then created a competition in the rinth to go steal that key. The agreement was if the Sargeant managed to keep the object, he'd be paid. Nobody freaking stole that damn thing. I actually periodically went to the Sargeant and stole/replanted it just to see he wasnt cheating. He wasnt at the time. Rinth was full of very honest, muscle-bound elves. Stored because I'm stupid.
Thonas - Aka Red, aka Ginger. A youth pickpocket from Tuluk who liked to think himself as a master of con artistry and hated Akai Sjir. Had everyone convinced he was a ranger so well that he ended up holding a class on dual wield for Al'seik/Arabetti. Was eventually hired to kill Lyvren's aide, so he went to Allanak and killed her. But did it so quickly and shittily. It also was his first and only murder of a human being. He was young, and he did not enjoy it at 'all'. Later on, had a talk with Lyvren and had her make him become the 'detective' to find out the murderer of her aide. Did such a good job playing detective, Qoriya had to ask him to stop framing akai Sjir. Also asked Stellvia if she could send her guards away, so he could bend her over the table and do things to her. He was an idiot savant. Died by pissing off a Whiran.
Shaze - An Aide to Takharion the Jal. A nilazi/jeweler who did not manifest for pretty much his entire gameplay. None of what he did and achieve was done through magick. Would suck the energies out of people by touching (via feels and thinks). So he was very touchy/feely. A complete sociopath with insect logic that learned to mimic the normal humans and longed to be like them. Due to a massive exposure to magick education, ended up realizing he was a mage and eventually escaping Allanak. Died to some NPC a rl week later, but I didnt care. My quiet time was over, so I knew I'll be on an extended break any moment.
Shower Aka Sho - A rinthi nilazi who lived underground and hunted rats. The emptiness robbed him of emotions and made him perpetually numb to everything. Devised a way to siphon lifeforce from others in order to feel again. "Ate" this pretty loveable Tuluki aide that escaped for some whatever reason. Got her to volunteer to a ritual in order to rejoin some Tuluki lover she lost to a Rentarri. Her joy and loveliness had him feeling like a normal human being for almost an entire month. I loved Sho's personality. But then things happened and he had to do something that nilazi tend to do, which flooded him with hooks of another personality. That personality gave him more options (he stopped being agoraphobic, etc), but he was a LOT less nuisanced then original Sho. Then work flared up and I had to do a bunch of breaks from the game. Eventually died to a Kryl, because ... I honestly didnt give a shit at the time. I was trying to remember how to type out proper emotes after a long break.
(redacted) - To be honest. I liked playing Red/Ginger so I made another youngster Troll. He was in the Byn and liked drawing dick pics. A very fun little dude.
PS: I know. I know. This whole post is just one big brag. But damn, it was nice to relive those experiences and I miss Arm so much.

Okay, maybe Erythil wins the thread. :o
The argument could be made that I'm not actually good at living a long time, I'm just a wimp and don't take enough risks.

Same here, I still manage to die somehow.
I haven't asked for my account notes for several many years so I don't have a complete list. Mostly it goes like this:
1. SUPER LONG LIVED CHARACTER
2. Throwaway to try a guild it turns out I hate
3. Throwaway to try a race/locale it turns out I hate.
4. Throwaway I try in a place that has no other PCs that play during my time zone.
5. SUPER LONG LIVED CHARACTER
I think if you don't count PCs that I bore-stored with less than a day of playtime, I've only had about eight or nine characters in over a decade. I tend to know pretty early on when a concept "clicks" for me and don't bother when it doesn't. Back in the day before I understood the rules I actually played over two accounts and shared what ended up being my account with a friend, lol. The actual number of PCs played by me including gladiators and such is 28.
Since I don't have the account-notes style list, here's some notables:
1. Fathi, breed Byn Sergeant. First PC. A grand intro to the game. Fell off the Shield Wall at least four times. Died memorably in the fighting pits at Luirsfest. What a great intro to the game.
2. Jik aka Midge. Second PC. Feral child turned eventual literate Salarri Agent/Advisor. Willing lab rat for a mindbender. Suffered a traumatic brain injury. Got eggs laid in her guts. Lived. Ran the Expansion Division for about a year or so-ish after Khortoc faked his death. Accidentally got her hands on an artifact that sent her to $WeirdLocation once and somehow lived through that too. Pretty resilient. Eventually Betrayed Everybody. Good times! Definitely my most epic character by the scale of her adventures and the relationships with her friends/enemies/squad over time. Probably my best clan experience.
3. Lanais aka Lan. Fifth or so PC. Whiran who escaped Tuluk with her brother and had some fun times in the wastes before dying too soon to poisoned meat. At one stage was going to kidnap a guy and poofed into where he was chilling in the wilderness only to discover he too was a Whiran and couldn't be kidnapped.
4. Yskali Lyksae. Ranger noble. Really loved a few PCs in her squad but Tuluk was frustratingly dead at the time and then I had to store her because I was moving halfway around the world into an even more off-peak time slot. Also discovered I wasn't really that keen on playing another ranger. Why did I even pick that guild?
5. Yrai, the last Dune Stalker and eventual Sun Runner slave. One of my favourites. In hindsight her death was something I could have easily prevented with a wish but I was too dumb to think of it at the time. (She was struggling with the whole 'Sun Runner not drinking water' thing and dehydrated in the desert and limped to Cenyr for water. The game crashed. She tried to sell some stuff but none of the merchants had any coin because of the reboot. I probably could have wished up and explained the situation... *facepalm*)
6. Raissa aka Rai Kurac. Fist Sergeant. Chronically ill spice addict greenhorn who hated being transferred to Luir's at first but eventually grew to love it. Didn't have many friends outside the Fist save for Isatep and Calomi, one of whom she was In Lesbians with and the other she wished she could. :P Lasted for a couple years but my time zone was frustrating and I felt like a bad clan leader because of it. Eventually stored over a misunderstanding with my clan staff at the time when there was a staffing switchover and someone forgot to tell the new guys I was on vacation for three months. However I felt awful about taking up a leader role when I could only reliably play from 2AM to 8AM EST so I didn't fight the storage and told myself no more clan leaders. Really enjoyed this PC when I had time to play her.
7. Kolo aka Kolorille aka Slack aka Laughter aka Drift aka The Lady Walks Unseen. Her face didn't work. I RPed a character who couldn't make facial expressions for like FOUR YEARS. Scrappy urchin who ran errands for Jarls and was eventually shunted into the Atrium by Stellvia Borsail. Good times were had. Completely bugfuck insane, would hallucinate constantly, thought she could hear insects buzzing when other people spoke to her normally. Had incredible times in the Atrium as a teenage misfit, hero worshipped Lantry Stetson and eventually ate his heart after roasting it on an open fire. Kept the knucklebones of her dead friends in a pouch around her neck. Once she ate Lantry's heart she believed she underwent a spiritual transformation and acquired his fearlessness. Overcame her pathological fear of blood and politics alike to eventually rise to Senior Advisor in Borsail and a lofty rank-might-be-too-IC-to-say in the Guild.
She was kind of a "secret" character that not many people got to know well or saw very often because of her reclusiveness and that was honestly a lot of fun. Could write at length about her adventures now that it's been long enough. Probably my favourite PC to date.
Her biggest thing was that she never actually lied to people that mattered to her, so if at any point someone in Borsail asked if she'd become a crime lord she'd have just said yes and tried to explain that she had really good reasons, I swear.
173, I think.
I get bored easily.

I wish I had the time to explore Kolorille more with Shaze. If we didnt betray each other over a whole bunch of reasons.
I found my PCs by opening a Request/Character. The drop down for 'which PC' included the first one (2006?)
You can hit "L" to list your characters from the Armageddon login menu.
.
Everyone else is doing it, so here goes. The ones who are potentially memorable, relatively speaking, are bolded.
1) Isooru - Dead
2) Kirasa - Dead
3) Eskeli - Dead - My only tribal character (Anyali).
4) Vaclava - Stored
5) Aliera - Dead - Not the noble, but named after her. The role started as a response to an ad for PC twins (with Nerissa) of an existing character (whom Ali never met). My longest-lived by days played. Best clan experience (Kurac) by far.
6) Naijou - Stored
7) Ommit - Dead
8) Diri - Dead - Most unintentionally amusing death, with a botched apartment ambush.
9) Gryta - Dead - First magicker. Had a lot of fun opposing the dominant clique of gemmed at the time. Died in gith invasion.
10) Caprice - Dead - Easily my favorite character. Very much "against type" for me, but so much fun to play. Elkinhym/Lyksae.
11) Izda - Stored
12) Jalena - Dead - Salarri family. None of my characters has been so good at making enemies as Jalena. She had some loyalists, but those who disliked her, really disliked her. Frankly, I wish I could bottle that trait, because it made for some fun and interesting moments.
13) Wytlee - Stored
14) Marilla - Stored - My one and only attempt at a noble (Dasari). I wish I could have made it work, but didn't see how at the time.
15) Tiasoma - Dead
16) Kyrtia - Dead
17) Malryn - Stored
18) Jori - Stored
19) REDACTED
20) REDACTED
Flurry:
Quote5) Aliera - Dead - Not the noble, but named after her. The role started as a response to an ad for PC twins (with Nerissa) of an existing character (whom Ali never met). My longest-lived by days played. Best clan experience (Kurac) by far.
Damn those were good days. Such an amazing crew.
Playing with Caprice as Chaska the Jul Tavan was an awesome time in Tuluk :-)
I had Fulmini, a breed who died to having been poisoned by a water source near Allanak. She interacted some with a dwarven male with a tattoo of three teardrops going down his cheek who I am pretty sure ended up killing several people in Tuluk in a very non-Tuluki way. He had wanted to start an organized crime ring or something. I wonder what became of him.
I'm posting again 'cause people started giving more detail on their PCs and... I like sharing.
2001:
Alanna(ranger, before subguilds I think?) - died to gith(18 hours)
Thyet(ranger, also before subguilds) - killed by a player.... Don't remember what happened, I think sparring accident, she was a Bynner.(4 days, 11 hours)
Thalina(warrior, also before subguilds) - killed by Allanaki solider(in occupied Tuluk)... Also Bynner, basically I went straight back to the Byn and said I was my pervious PCs friend... Yah, shame on me. Ended up joining Kadius and working for Merchant Amos and Yasina(she was recruited to do a belly dance at the OLD Sanctuary by Yasina(sp?)).(45 days, 8 hours)
2002:
Kelbina(merchant, no subguild??) - killed by as player(Borsail I think for refusing to have sex with him??). Fale noble. Was a TON of fun. The imm(now staff) at the time manifested a Golden Kank that only she could see, and also a little roach that would climb on other PCs shoulders. It was such a blast. Always wished I'd gone back to play in Fale again.(20 days, 6 hours)
Yashana(warrior, hunter) - killed by a player.... No idea. Likely a Bynner in a sparring accident. I did a lot of Bynning in my early days.(2 days 4 hours)
Melisha(warrior, weaponcrarfter) - carrued, likely my first attempt at a Tuluki based PC, during occupation(12 hours)
Ketia(warrior, weaponcrafter) - githed, also likely a Bynner(1 day 16 hours)
Tia(warrior, jeweler) - githed, I think did a year in Byn and then joined Kadius? I also played in Kadius a lot in my early years.(13 days)
Nahfari(warrior, archer) - carrued. Northern Kadian hunter if I'm remembering correctly. More than likely spent at least a year in the Byn. I -think- she was in the Byn during the time on Sujaal? One of my Byn PCS went on a silt horror hunt and got to ride a skimmer. I feel like it was her.(33 days, 17 hours)
2003:
Hallen(warrior, merc, dwarf) - shot by a player.... My only attempt at a dwarf. I remember Shaleah's PC at the time took me in and I found out a year later at an APM that my boss was her, LOL.(1 day, 5 hours)
Enthatril(merchant, jeweler) - immportal furry(I RPed her falling down the stairs and breaking her neck 'cause I was bored) Kadian family Merchant. Was around during Kronibas(I forget his PCs name) when he had the gortok type pets that you could have follow you around. Don't really remember much.(10 days, 18 hours)
Jeana(pick-pocket, acrobat) - no idea! I don't remember her at all.(2 hours)
Nass(warrior weaponcrafter, half-giant) - My only real attempt at a HG, and I loved it. I worked for either Tenneshi or Winrothol right after the Houses opened up. She had a baby with another HG, and quints. I had people lined up to play her first born, but then I started college and wound up not playing that much and stored her.(21 days, 6 hours)
2004:
Jeanna(warrior thug) - Stored. I think this was my first Salarri, and it was right after the new Subguilds were added. Probably played in Tuluk as by this time I mostly played up there(13 days, 18 hours)
2005:
Nymina(ranger, guard) - raptored. Byn for a bit, then most likely joined Kadius.(1 day, 18 hours)
HUGE break. Came back thanks to Mansa, Kronibas, Sepheroto, and others at the 2008 APM.
2008:
Lorana(warrior, caravan guide) - force stored for being bad Tuluki noble. I think most of the players at the time know what happened there, but I did have a ton of fun with her and my staff at the time, Shabago, had a lot of fun messing with my PC. She was around for early Raleris.(60 days, 21 hours)
2009:
Amber(stone elementalist, jeweler) - dead by player. I basically wimped out on playing a gicker and she got angry while foraging for stones and started casting. Never played one since.(4 hours)
Lahna(merchant, bard) - death by player. Started as Alanaki bard and almost immediately traveled north and joined Kadius. Attempted to get into Circle but as s southie never could.(18 days, 8 hours)
Tanua(ranger, noman) - gizhat. She was a Rusarla Bard(apprentice). Went to Kadius again like a bad player, I've always gravitated towards them. She was fun, but has the most fun with a Groot Apprentice named Vo.(4 days, 20 hours)
Celi(ranger, tailor, Arabet) - force stored by staff. Had so much insane fun with Celi. Got stomed on by a mek with Salarr, fell off shield wall into a bunch of gith and survived. She traveled all over and I -think- she nearly learned allundean from all her dealings with the desert elves. I seem to remember successful arrangement with Red Fang. She mostly spent time in Tuluk, attempted to get a Arabet shop opened like the Jul Tavan had. Had a LARGE bribe that she carted in for Quoriya, but Nenyuk stole it all(like 10k) and while Raleris felt sorry for her, Qoriya did not. Was around for the black moon in the sky and the Seik joining the Arabet tents.(66 days, 4 hours)
2010:
Rayta(warrior, house servant) - stored. My attempt to force myself to play away from most people I knew. Joined Borsail. Was fun at first but then there was no one around for ages and I got bored(2 days, 21 hours)
Vaeronika(merchant, physician) - Quoriyed. She was a bard, in sponsored by Dasari. Had great times with her as well, and she was likely to tell stories using little figurines. I really wanted to MC some puppets, but I did something stupid as a player and should have known better and so she got killed. Have a pretty awesome log of her telling a templar a story when some other PC bard got pissy over something really stupid.(12 days, 2 hours)
Xaina(ranger, nomad, half-elf) - carrued. My first Salarr PC. Tuluki of course. By this point I was getting really bored again and wasn't playing much(11 days, 19 hours)
Subagita(merchant, armormaker) - stored(due to all of Tuluk being stored and I wasn't playing). I started her because from previous PC I knew there were nobles and templars wanting MC gear but there were not PC merchants to make it, so I made her to help out and hadn't planned on really playing much. She was 15 when she joined. There's more to tell about this PC than all my others combined. Most of my past PCs were very sexual, and I hadn't planned on ending that, but things happened IG and she wouldn't leave the compound for a year and was scared to men she didn't know for a really long time. Got to Merchant by 18, mastered every craft skill a merchant could get(and I attempted to get Brew added since she spent time learning(and organizing) about plants, alas, never happened). She helped add to the kryl armor, made the ENTIRE SET of the Legion kryl armor, made peace and trade arrangements with Soh and Sun Runners. Learned to speak fluent bendune, allundean, and was pretty good(see: advanced) at mirukkium when I stopped playing. Was also a bard, apprentice. I think Groot? I forget, sadly. She had a huge collection of masks. She could never remember names because I was too lazy to make a nice list with notes. I loved that quirk about her. Helped build the Salarri green wagon that was stationed in Tuluk.(96 days, 22 hours). She was around for 21 IG years(stored at 36). I still have ALL my notes I made and sent to staff(I had PAGES that I sent weekly for updates) on her. Best PC I've done ever.
I've only had two PCs since then, one was someone no one would remember, but was within a year of last played, and then my current PC.

Qoriya never felt sorry for anyone, but she was concerned about losing the money which on her end was intended for boosting the restoration of Freil's Rest after the Deluge. Apparently a certain Senior Agent of Nenyuk was most unhappy with a thrashed apartment but on the other hand very happy to sponsor the restoration of the village.

Her death was the result of some political mess, if I'm not wrong. And there was the part about having someone else's master bard crafted prize instrument/case, which didn't help at all.

Yep. See "I did something stupid as a player(ect)".
EDIT: As for other part, that happened right after Nyr took over as tribal staff and I was still on his shitlist from the BS I did as Lorana. Months of being a great tribal with prior staff, and not even 2 weeks of Nyr and I was stored.
I had Dayna, a water witch/whatever who had never actually done anything bad after chargen but, uh. A dwarven woman had befriended her mother while she was pregnant, and then helped her deliver the baby and killed the mother when it was over. She raised the baby herself and trained her to assist her in her goal of killing 1000 undesirables. She would 'sell stuff' and invite the buyer to her apartment and Dayna would lock them in. Eventually the dwarf did get caught and Dayna got away scot free. She was ten at the time.
Cue chargen. Dayna doesn't know she's a witch; she buys some armor and gets into the Byn. After a couple of months they go on a spider-hunting contract and she gets knocked out. They rest in a cave and I have her emote mist healing a few of her wounds. They wake her up and tell her and she does not believe it. This is the point during which the templarate is offering rewards for rogues who are brought in, so they get a little money for me.
She did not make friends easily and was brusque and somewhat cold but she made one friend, a half-elf from the Byn. After roleplaying the sort of completely normal life I usually do, and waying him and such, she eventually told him about her childhood. She never, ever said to him, or to herself or had a think of whether she would have continued doing that focus if she weren't too young to continue by herself.
I got two kudos for her. I'll never have a character that awesome again.
I guess I'll make out a more complete list, though nobody cares about my PCs :)
1) Ralor - Dead (Human Ranger, 2 hour death, notes don't even tell me why)
2) Sirlil - Dead (Human Ranger 2, 6days played over 7 IC years, got halflinged)
3) Christan - Dead (Human Warrior, got kylori'd. Flee is hard)
4) Derrikan - Dead (Human Ranger (this is why I don't play Rangers anymore), actually PK'd)
5) Merolan - Dead (Human Warrior, 2hours played)
6) Darran - Dead (Human Warrior, quit at negative HPs, think this was a duskhorn attack)
7) Innuk - Dead (D-elf Warrior, Innuk Chuck, got killed by a cilops)
8) Sadiran - Dead (D-elf warrior, 5hours in got gith'd)
9) Rinjar - Dead (Human assassin, got duskhorn'd)
10) Sandin - Dead (dwarf assassin, wanted to "take the head of a bahamet solo", 2 hours in and died)
11) Jisaine - Dead (Human Drov spec app, got PK'd by whiran and orange scrabs (which explains why to this day, I still think scrabs are orange like in Oddworld: Abe's Oddysey despite most being colored black)
12) Jarren - Dead (Human Assassin, 5hours in and quit while dying)
13) Sidhan - Dead (Dwarf Warrior, "defend against any and all attacks imaginable". I'm good at dwarves...)
14) Yaran - Dead (Human Drov, made it 7days played, actually learned a high level magicker ability from Templar Samos. Pretty sure it was a Corporal Kelsin of the Legions PK)
15) Azhan - Dead (dwarf warrior, says I was killed by a golden-eyed elf, maybe a PK?)
16) Merrol - Dead (Human warrior, 3 hours in got duskhorn'd (they're pretty beefy, guys))
17) Rinsat - Dead (Human Viv, got 2 days in and got PKd)
18) Belarus - Dead (Dwarf Warrior, got cilops'd within 1d played)
19) Aristol - Dead (Human Burglar, got gortok'd within 5 hours)
20) Darrken - Dead (Dwarf Warrior, made it 13days played in Kadius, I believe, before I got reel-locked by a bahamet)
21) Kaleb - Dead (Human Burglar, killed by a woman within 8hours of play... PK possible)
22) Satiki - Dead (Delf warrior, 1day played, died from cilops poison because 20+ characters in, and I didn't know what cures were. Did kill the cilops, and the inix that was in the room too, because it was a blinding sandstorm and I survived!)
23) Guldar - Dead (Human Ruk, killed by a Halfling after almost 7days played)
24) Rhaday - Dead (Human burglar, got PK'd)
25) Creek - Stored (First long-lived PC (over 60days played), Sergeant in the Legions. As the first long lived character, made a lot of mistakes. Would fight gizhat in the grasslands, barehanded, because he wanted to work on wrestling things bigger than himself. Got whisked away to the Labyrinth by a protector of the Grasslands for it, and because I didn't understand what was happening, was telling people "I'm on... I think its Hathor's?" because... stupid. Branched Pike weapons, survived the Great Deluge, rescued a Jihaen Templar during it. Kept trying to get into the Ivory Guard as a Sergeant over a virtual unit of Pike specialists, but could never get a Jihaen and a Lirathan to agree on anything.)
26) Kaden - Dead (Human pickpocket, got HG soldiered)
27) Konnarden - Stored (Human pick-pocket the second, this time I learned. Made it to 20days played, got hired into Salarr because he found three people at the same time to bring into the clan. Worked as a Left Hand when that position existed, primarily attempting to steal or retrieve sold weapons so that clients would have to purchase again. Konnar was handsome and super fun)
28) Kieandatu - Stored (Jihaen Templar. This is who Konnar was stored, for. Modeled him after Mace Windu, believed he could see 'fractures' that would lead him to the right decisions, was usually just because he was on a sugar-high from all the juice he'd drink. Constantly was the "beat cop", sitting in Firestorm reading a book, feet up on a keg of juice with his purple cup. Had a bunch of ideas, but at the time I didn't REALLY understand the role, and my clan staff had differing playtimes (and also a bunch left soon after bringing me in, so I don't think I was the NEW clan staff's favored subject)
29) Taymullah - Dead (Human assassin, killed by a 'rinthi dwarf NPC)
30) Yamalo - Dead (Human Assassin, 14days played, would CONSTANTLY try to hire out vNPC whores from the alleys, actually got a couple people interested.)
31) Zin - Stored (Half-giant warrior, only made it to a day played. Was very busy at the time, loved the PC but just couldn't keep my mind in it)
32) Antholin - Dead (Human Pickpocket, worked with Salarr. Plan was to be a "Games Master" by doing things like ball-under-the-cup and sleight of hand. Sometimes it worked, usually PCs would just watch me and catch the hemotes.)
33) Caarsor - Dead (Human warrior, Byn Sergeant of 18days played. Got super mad at Nyr, a fellow Sergeant, and what I felt was a lack of support, and headed all the way up to Tuluk to get kryl'd)
34) Solusek - Dead (Human Rukkian, boy am I stupid. [doing magick stuff] in sight of walls and forts, thinking I was hot shit because I was buff. Died to an anakore)
35) Shardanor - Dead (Human Ranger, tried doing it again! Killed by a siltflyer, after wandering into a huge spider nest like a moron. Was playing with a RL friend, twinking super hard, and it didn't matter to the spiders.)
36) Casarin - Dead (Human Assassin, Sarin. Was in the Byn, managed to smooth-talk my way into my Tuluki Sergeant letting me go into the grasslands when nobody was around for training. Made it quite a long time after that, until Sergeant Rythe and a few others decided to check out a certain spooky cave, and got scared out of it. Got PK'd soon after, I think)
37) Cadaran - Dead (human warrior, 2 hours in)
38) Ahotep - Stored (Human Pickpocket, 9days played. A GREAT pickpocket, Tep I think was the one who would be a go-fer boy and 'plant' the items on people. Until the time he planted spice on a Jihaen Templar to appear helpful and got got. Lost a LOT of coin and respect for failure. I honestly don't remember why I stored him.)
39) Edge - Dead (Human warrior, got 'rinth'd)
40) Gavin - Stored (Human warrior, 55days played. Went through Byn, Salarr, House Dasari. Originally just wanted to have high subdue, and knife-fighting, and be a gladiator. Being a competent warrior so he could just the Tuluki Arena as a gladiator was always his lofty goal. Hired out of the Byn by Salarr, he saw it as a way to "return home" but took YEARS to get on the rotation back. Then left and joined Dasari, because with no options to be a gladiator, he thought he might like to open a bake-shop with a 'secret' backroom for independent gladiator training. Never accomplished that, but DID get knives and knife-weapons made for him. Because he twinked hard on a code exploit and got caught, and I decided to store)
41) Maoten - Stored (human pick-pocket, worked for House Kassigarh but not on PURPOSE. Kind of got conscripted by the PC noble. Spammed peek a LOT on people, got caught stealing from a masterbard (not codedly, staff were just watching and decided I got caught. Unfair, yes, but holy shit I needed to be reined in)).
42) Aerin - Stored (Human Merchant, 16days played. Part of the Circus, responsible for the mastercrafted tent-design cloaks, was the master juggler, and REALLY wanted to craft folding tables and pavilion-like tents for the circus to travel with. Got a bit discouraged by the turn-around time on mastercrafts, had a hard time enjoying the role and stored)
43) Tibbs - Dead (Too recent, but Mr Tibbs wasn't the name he went by)
44) ??? - Dead (Too recent, but only 6 hours in. Did NOT enjoy the role)
45) ??? - Alive (Current PC. Over 40days played, no NEGATIVE notes yet, so either I'm doing something right, or haven't been caught yet. Enjoying the RP, I can play from work so I get a lot of time in, and the goals I've set are both mildly unattainable OOCly, but PERFECTLY IC to chase for years to come)
Quote10) Sandin - Dead (dwarf assassin, wanted to "take the head of a bahamet solo", 2 hours in and died)
Oh man, 2 hours?! HE WAS SO CLOSE! ;-)
I hope I'm not the only one who is absolutely loving reading these. There are so many characters but I am finally putting players too after so long.
I remember Gavin. He was funz. Fiesty little foxy.

Right there with you. Sadly my memory for most of the PCs that played with mine is HORRIBLE, so.... I maybe know them, maybe not?
1. Aoshi - Oashi Captain in the Elites - died to a scrab after forgetting to redraw my sword
2. Kazyn - Long lived Byn Sarge - AoD Captain - infiltrated the rebellion and escaped back to Nak just before Kul showed up. Died in the battle of Luir's to a unit of half-giant NPCs
3. Nev - Rinth elf assassin - died after only a couple hours in the rinth
4. Lith - Another Rinth elf assassin - was part of a crew that ran the screaming mantis, got in a turf war with the Guild. His own crew killed him to settle the blood feud with the Guild.
5. Rakhan - Southern Templar - part of some crazy plots and died to [redacted]
6. Sano - Half-elven ranger - stored
7. Elithan - First post-liberation Jihaen PC - Stored twice, once in 2004, unstored in 2006, and stored again in 2009.
8. Farraj - Byn sarge - Died to the brand new (at the time) Carru code.
9. Sahaym - Whiran - Worked for the Guild. Drowned in the silt sea.
10. Khuz - Benjari Ranger - dDed to wezers.
11. Luhk - Mul Ranger - Died to a botched raiding attempt.
12. Ilias - Oashi Whiran - PK'd
12.5 Elithan unstored
13. Qasim - Another Oashi Whiran - PK'd
14. Jaleth - Mul Warrior - Died to a beetle after forgetting to redraw my sword (You'd think I would have learned by now)
15. Thul - Ranger - Stored
16. Chakal - Jihaen Templar - Stored
17. Sakhalid - Sorcerer - Died to a beetle
18. Akram - Warrior - Died to tarantulas
19. Hasan - Sorcerer - Did so much crazy stuff I probably can't talk about here. His death is noted on the history page.
20. Current PC.
Since everyone else is doing it, I guess. Infamous/long-lived/interesting PCs bolded. These are just the ones since the bio system went in.
58) Wak – Dead It's relatively easy to get involved in a lot of shenanigans as a half-giant, but this PC was all over the place. Died to a Whiran doing things that Whirans can't do anymore.
59) Koveld - Dead
60) Keljak - Dead
61) Xalo - Dead Not really notable, but he was an ATV merchant, and I managed to compile something like 1,200 crafting recipes with him, thanks to the hunters always bringing in max greb.
62) Kelildi - Dead
63) Oran - Dead
64) Scrub - Stored
65) Kirildi - Dead
66) Zavaz - Dead
67) Zaz - Stored
68) Jlath - Dead Most would've known him by Rash. Sandas pickpocket/custom subguild Whiran, and rolled AI agility and exceptional wisdom. Too much fun, really. Died doing something stupid because I didn't know all the ins and outs of what <redacted> could do.
69) Khlast - Dead
70) Moxa - Dead
71) Lorillax - Dead
72) Rumble - Dead Rukkian half-giant. Got dragged into ROFLstomping that one tribal village with Salarr, which was both hilarious and cringe-inducing. Suicided into the Silt Sea because I got sick of waiting outside the gates for active spells to drop.
73) Umi - Dead
74) Malik - Dead
75) Giuseppe - Dead Branched every warrior skill except tridents. Died along with his rugged doppleganger at the gates of 'nak, I believe. You can't parry fireballs.
76) Mitok - Dead This guy wasn't particularly noteworthy, but he was hilarious. Elkrosian who hated being a magicker, and hated all the other frilly/frippy card-playing, wine-drinking gemmers in Oash. Supplemented his Oash gig by going north regularly and zorching Tuluki hunters. Got mekked on a return trip. *sigh*
77) Ranwirth - Dead
78) Shavlok - Dead
79) Prystik - Stored Non-'rinthi city-elf merchant nobody who rose to become the highest PC-attainable rank in the Jaxa Pah. He actually really wanted to be part of the Byn, but got kicked out after like a month, and spent the rest of his life trying to ruin the lives of everyone involved. Stored him because I'm more of a "doing things" than "coordinating things" kind of player, and I basically got tired of all the admin b.s.
80) Valix - Dead
81) Broga - Dead OHK backstabbed by my former Jaxa Pah homies. THANKS GUYS
82) Dref - Dead Not particularly noteworthy, but I accidentally no-emote PK'ed a Kadian family member to exact revenge on some girl who was throwing knives at orphans in the 'rinth. I got yelled at so hard for that, lol. (Sorry, guy.)
83) Yutz - Dead
84) Briggs - Dead
85) Cletus - Dead Damn-near maxed out dwarf ranger who got pressed into joining the Legion after his indie employer ran afoul of Salarr and/or the northern templarate. Still can't parry fireballs (thanks, Sarge).
86) Yusku - Dead
87) Harwyn - Dead
88) Groba - Dead

Noble: Go buy me this thing, peasant.
*noble doesn't give nearly enough coin for thing*
Me: Alright, I'll do it anyway, and cover the overage.
Noble: You didn't bring me the remainder? Are you trying to short me?
Me: No, Chosen Lord. There was not enough coins, and I paid in part from my personal stock.
Noble: So now you're saying a Chosen Lord of Kassigarh doesn't know the cost of things?
Was either start "working" for Kassigarh or deal with a Templar who is going to "correct" me for disobeying orders.
I mostly meant staff deciding you got caught. Anything short of stealing a master bard's lyre during a performance is a bit off when we have code for that, I think.
Its not the first time staff have decided the virtual world trumped the code, and I'm sure it won't be the last. I still think it was a bit of a janky move on their part, but I basically wandered around the city peeking at everyone I could until I saw they had coins to steal, and then would steal them. I remember very vividly, about 10minutes afterwards, my PC Boss contacting me and ripping me a new asshole because a Masterbard just told them I took coins out of their pocket.
I pored over that log for half an hour trying to figure out where I might've broken hide, or failed the skillcheck. I'm confident I didn't, but you can't put the chicken back into the egg, and staff control the "HENTIRE" incubation and hatching process.

No character I've ever had has ever had the power to shape the world around them quite as much as the common cutpurse. None of mine have lived very long, mostly because of the climb code, but every one I've tried is really something epic to behold.
Walk into the bar and every single player is watching you. Emote walking near someone and watch them suddenly close all their pockets, packs, and pouches. They'll ignore the gemmer sitting at the end of the bar who can fireball them into ash and instead focus on you to make sure their bone knife doesn't disappear off their belt.
I've never had a pickpocket actually get caught stealing, but everyone just KNOWS a pickpocket when they see one. It's really an amazing thing to behold and I want to play one again soon.

I've never had a pickpocket actually get caught stealing, but everyone just KNOWS a pickpocket when they see one. It's really an amazing thing to behold and I want to play one again soon.

Pickpockets are the poor man's defiler.

30) Tonjimur – Dead – Tonji. Hidden half-elf, Tuluki Assassin something or other. Inside Tuluk, some bugs appeared. It turns out if you pissed them off, they puff out this horrible gas that makes your mount go bat-shit crazy. Tonji's sunback ran her through town, finally out the gates and then stampeded her into the Grey Forest. When it finally wore off and any of my commands were allowed to go through, I had a train of nightmares rushing in upon poor Tonji. 14 days played.

On break.
I should have known you were Howler. God damn it I was mad when she disappeared.
OMG I remember Qasim! Oash was fabulous back then. Until about 2 weeks after I joined. Then literally EVERYONE (like 5-6 active PCs) died or stored at the same time (I'm still looking at you, Zoltan and Aaron Goulet!). And I was left to hang out with a certain infamous rogue Whiran out of sheer loneliness. :P
I think I sent Qasim a kudos for showing me that cool high level magic that I'd had no idea existed.

I once gave Heejo a BJ on a bench in public using hemotes. I always wondered if he noticed.
I just checked.
I'm on PC # 84.
And I can't tell you about any but the first 3 because THEY'RE ALL LESS THAN A YEAR.
I suck at this game.

My PC, who was hiding next to said bench, noticed and he thought you were giving -him- a BJ, so I acted accordingly in hemotes as well. I always wondered if she noticed.

You are the MOST fun to RP with ever and you need to come back 'cause I just did and playing with you again would be AMAZING!!! <3 You were the first person I ever saw really use hemote much and it made me want to use it more. I still do it along and it's really fun when people catch on to it.

Quote from: Riev on December 29, 2016, 08:33:26 AM
Its not the first time staff have decided the virtual world trumped the code, and I'm sure it won't be the last. I still think it was a bit of a janky move on their part, but I basically wandered around the city peeking at everyone I could until I saw they had coins to steal, and then would steal them. I remember very vividly, about 10minutes afterwards, my PC Boss contacting me and ripping me a new asshole because a Masterbard just told them I took coins out of their pocket.
I pored over that log for half an hour trying to figure out where I might've broken hide, or failed the skillcheck. I'm confident I didn't, but you can't put the chicken back into the egg, and staff control the "HENTIRE" incubation and hatching process.
People in the room can see you successfully steal something without the whole virtual room becoming aware of it.
>You notice the tall, muscular man steal a pile of allanaki coins from the tressy-tressed woman.
I've seen it, anyway. And I decided not to notice them taking my empty bag, but there was another girl sitting at the bar at that time who also saw and wouldn't let it go, so they got caught anyway.
Sure. But that isn't what happened. The person I stole from, reported it to my IC superior. It was a while ago, it's just one of those "this is where distrust comes in" scenarios. I didn't fail, the world only reacted post hoc. It happens. I was stealing alllllll the times.
164. I did a lot of "ranger explore" and still do to this day. I'm all about flash in the pan.
I have too many to go over so I'll just cover the semi-recent notable ones.
156.) Samim Muyal - dead Templarate aide. Killed for trying to help him out. She was a hidden sorcerer that I hadn't had a reason to have her start learning spells yet because she was incredibly loyal to the Templarate. My general idea for her was to serve until she found the justice to be 'lacking' and turn her into a do-good vigilante sorc. I was nervous as hell about getting sniffed somehow but she ended up dying for mundane reasons: lunatic boss.
155.) Bezmur - stored Paint al'Seik. My PC focus with this one was to build up a good relationship between Seik and Kurac for added roleplay as a tribe storyteller. It was fun. I stored to play Samim after a while of getting bored with all the solo RP.
154.) Pykapp - dead Got herself killed while trying to pull one over on a few particular people. Was spying and swindling.
152.) Kitt Borsail/Tor - dead Led to her death by her beloved cousin after a long string of political missteps. I spent a majority of the time playing Kitt trying to make her as outrageous and engaging as possible yet still be a human disaster. She wrote quite a few books, was an instructor for the Tor Academy, and was contract-married to a fat guy. Out-maneuvered and destroyed by Rusimelle Fale (Ru)--they had a very long and hilarious feud.
151.) Umyska Salarr - dead Killed in the Arena by a Borsail mul gladiator after trying to show off. She was a firecracker in the Allanaki political arena that pissed a lot of people off. It all started with "brandishing" her weapon around some crazy Oash Lord.... In Tuluk she was regarded in very good favor, having successfully bribed the right Templars. She was a Bard Apprentice for the status of it and also for the opportunity to dunce on people in the street in the name of art.
147.) Rikaar - dead Double al'Seik. Infamous worldwide because she was a "dangerous" water mage in the Tablelands. I think she visited Tuluk proper once when she was a brand new PC (I bought something at the marketplace then left?), but otherwise stayed clear of cities. I believe both cities had a "kill on sight" order for her. She regularly threatened Gemmed to stay out of the Tablelands and later was credited with Gemmed deaths. (She killed 1 PC in self defense.) During a meeting between many tribes and Kurac in the Pah she was attacked by a group of Sun Runners. She survived, somehow ended up in the Rukkian Elemental Plane, was grabbed and "thrown" back onto the current Plane of Existence. The Sun Runners had to cancel their witch killing party. She agreed to be buried in the Shield Wall to appease the Sun Runners and stop them from declaring war on the Seik.
That PC is why new age mages have so many restrictions. You're welcome.
127.) Bosh - dead Gladiator. Arena Champion x1, died defending her title for the first time. (Everybody died, though.) She was a silly cockneyed 'rinthi with a giant Warhammer.
I'm liking this thread for the PC stuff.
Overall the most interesting thread, even though I have played for years I don't even know a tiny portion of these PCs!
18 characters in total. 8 stored (due to absence from the game, usually) The rest dead from being a dumbass.
Only notable one was a 28 day ranger named Naus. I don't think she did anything particularly special, though. I was very sad when I drunkenly (IRL) fell down a hole and died. Rest in pieces, first and only long-lived character.
Edit: Wrong thread.

IsFriday plays Armageddon to the hilt, man. Live fast, die young and often. It's the Jake Way.
My last notable PC was a gith with hilariously high strength (https://youtu.be/WAqmTaRKNcg)gith with hilariously high strength, and the one before that was Percy Oash. I've had a little over 20 characters.
I got warned about pissing on other gith without consent. Pretty sure I scored at least 3 player complaints? Fun role. Also someone spread rumors on various MUDs (includiong one I'm an admin on) that Percy was a serial rapist (???)

You played Percy? Wow. I was 'just supposed to water your damned garden', but instead went cannibal crazy on a dead lover. So glad you got that guy killed, he was becoming.... just awful.

8) Anati - Dead (Bought an apartment pretty early into the character, found some steak. Lots of poison was in the steak)
9) Kaira - Dead (Tuluki Legions recruit. Ended up in the cells with her special someone, only one left alive. It wasn't me.)
10) Herra - Dead (Neat Guilder with skeleton tattoo's, vengeful person drowned me. Only drowning death by water I have under my belt.)
11) Tonna - Dead (Way knocked me out on the streets, got carried off and knifed)

Finding this stuff out fills me with love for Armageddon.
My character totally enjoyed Moh and griefed when she died.
Same character organized the doublecrossing of your next character, whom by the way was then eaten by a cannibal dwarf.
Were you playing the character who changed personalities depending on whether or not her hood was on? I thought I recognized the style. I should've sent a buncha kudos.
Soo coool.

I'm pretty sure I was the Sergeant that died. I remember hearing about the aftermath awhile later and have felt a little bad about everyone getting killed because of my Pc's death. considering my death was stupid and easily avoidable if I had of just -drawn a fucking weapon-.
I remember the goddamn demon elf and being so scared of it. That was you?
Oh, man, I remember Tali from when I was (more of) an utter newbie. You helped me out a lot, then, and I experienced a couple of great scenes around you. I absolutely love your RP ability, and I thought I recognized your style on Pellatemi and Moh, ha.

Ohhhh, that was you. I guess it's been long enough to say I was Hinafe, the AoD Recruit. I think he felt bad for her that she didn't really have friends, and considering he was fucking an elf, he had developed sympathy for that sort of thing. I totally remember the Byn Sergeant drunkenly talking about selling her, too.
Too many small little nobodies who got too curious and died.
New year's resolution though is to play another long lived PC who resides in the thick of it.
Notables I've played long ago:
Ghost: city elf who had some stuff going between both crime rings north/south
Lefty: Half-giant tank of death. Trained with just about ecru other death machine alive at that time. Worked every profession at some point. Lol. He was fun.
Corporal Nasca AoD
Fale Noble who fell to his death off the new Oashi taverns balcony during a party.
Scar/Ghost (lol) nickname not self given. Bynner dwarf who was quite ballsy.

Revealed! A random stump I played for awhile.

Priss- Weak Af Breed, had like 60 hp and got dead to a spider.
Yeshin - Stored.
Current - Wouldnt you like to know.
Six characters. Four with a relatively decent amount of play time.
Most of the ones who actually died (as opposed to being stored) were assassinated.

************************ Hiatus
6 more pcs, some gladiators.
Maybe 12 since 1999... Let me log on and check.
1. Kyr - Stored - Borsail recruit who made it to Sergeant, lived about 60 days played as an assassin in an at the time full unit of Amber Wyverns. Stored over something I said OOC to a player.
2. Drokh - Died to a Raptor - Indy ranger around Tuluk, really boring to play and kind of why I never play 'full' rangers any more.
3. Tembrik - Died to a Well - Rinther dwarf, gave me a reason to not like the rinth. But to be fair, dwarves are kinda out of place there in the raw political sense.
4. Emokir - Died to a Whiran (?) - Semi Tuluki Ranger who made his living as a courier. Notable waylaid by a rukkian for a frypan and delivered some troll letters for Ceylara Borsail to Tuluk.
5. Coaxoch - Stored - Tribal warrior who walked to Allanak from Tuluk over the course of a while, joined Kadius out of desperation, ended up running the southern crew.
6. Buhz - Stored - Last long lived slave PC before they lowered the boom on that stuff. Served Ceylara Borsail, most notably saved her from a Roc (thanks Veddi). Long lived, boring personality.
7. Greffokh - Stored - Tuluki Legionaire, did a bunch of stuff for a few Jihaens, defied orders to save some little kid templar from a kryl, stored over in clan politics I didn't care for.
8. Otiartes - Templared - Spider disaster survivor, used to slack off in the tavern. Ended up being accused of being a mindworm and executed by his Corporal. Wasn't a mindworm.
9. Khax - Stored - Had a cooler full name but hell if I remember it, loyal servant of Raleris Winrothol. Used to train with city elves a lot, not as smart as people thought he was.
10. Rihat - Dasari-ed - Some fuckwit stableboy who hired on with Salarr and ended up running the show (from the practical side). Sold out by someone, the usual politics.
I have three after Rihat but I'm not really keen on talking about them. I didn't enjoy them really also the year thing.

Start Date: Sat Oct 11 12:07:03 2014
Edmundo (Deskoft) has been killed by a player, amen. You can even see my newbie name. Died after one week in a hilarious (and awesome) roleplay.
Flaire (Deskoft) has been killed by a player, amen. I loved this Konviwedu bard.
SPONSORED STORED PC - It was pretty challenging one character in (because Edmundo lasted a week!) to play a sponsored role. Played him two months then stored. I regret it though! The concept was sick.
STORED PC - Hiatus PC that I logged in every now and then to try and get back into Arm.
STORED PC - Hiatus touched PC that I used to quickly try the magic system.
DEAD PC - Came back to Arm and it was great!
CURRENT PC - :D
Man I've only had like three or four serious PCs. I'm such a newb.
I kind of love this thread!
1) Reneli - Stored. 2004-2005, 91 days. Borsail aide, trolloped around the city, hung out with some awesome Amber Wyverns. Eventually became Veralius Borsail's concubine (where are you, EvilRoeSlade?) The storage is really more of an IC death; she was caught up in intrigue when her Lord tried to assassinate a Senior, and was sent to the slave pens to be a mul mommy as his punishment.
2) Isaya - Dead. 2005, 5 days. Kuraci soldier who only lived for a hot second, but I got to serve with Shatuka!
3) Kelynna - Dead. 2005, 40 some days. Her cover was being a stonecrafter, in reality she was House Tenneshi's terrorist and burglar extraordinaire. Flash powder existed back then and she had some fun with it. Died trying to blow up the windmills in Red Storm to harm grain production and cause famine in the south.
4) Flower - Dead. 2005-2006, 10 days. Rinthi breed vivaduan gemmer. She had a little whirlwind of a life and saw some shit in her brief time, even had hands on a magickal artifact for a day or so! Died because House Oash didn't like her and thought she was spying on them (she wasn't, but she was a breed, and that was good enough for the templar.)
5) Ceylara Ellandris Borsail - Stored. 2006 - 2007, 120ish days. Got promoted to Senior Lady (these days I gather it would have just been a titled junior, rather than a Senior). Was promostored to Senator when Borsail was closing due to the whole Armageddon 2 thing. I could write a whole post on her but I'll stop. Definitely features in logs and forum posts and books and things.
6) Euclys Samos Rennik - Stored. 2007-2008, 120ish more days. Samos the Red. I think he has about ten times the number of player kills as the rest of my roster combined. All he needed was a cape and a blue jumpsuit and he would have been Superman. He might even still be alive, who knows?
*** HUGE BREAK ***
7) Torihan - Stored. 2014, 20 days. Tuluki hidden Whiran with the most amazing cohesive story I've ever played. I wrote a post about her here (http://gdb.armageddon.org/index.php/topic,51481.msg957668.html#msg957668).
*** HUGE BREAK ***
8 ) 2018, Alive
Started in2012.
1. Aonghus (Aon), Tuluki ranger, the hunter, 119 days played. Started a hunting company that served merchant families and crafters of all kinds. He had lots of adventures. Died when out with a templar taming oxen for him and a bahamet attacked when he had just tamed two oxen. He and the templar got away, but the npc guard was left behind, so when the templar went back, Aon went back too, just as the guard fell, and the bahamet and two treacherous oxen turned on him.
2. Athan, a Nakki Salarri hunter that died after just 4 days played. I was offered a sponsored role so I decided to explore until he died. Turned in all my Salarri stuff and spent all my money on arrows and headed out...and immediately fell off the shield wall north of the city. He survived, but his beetle was still unconscious so he wandered around a bit nearby, got chased all around by a dujat, survived that, beetle was still asleep so he decided to see what was in that busted up wagon...
3. Niall, sponsored Byn Sergeant. 39 days played. Death by unending staff spider onslaught. I enjoyed the in-game part of the role immensely.
4. Ryhd - Tuluki Assassin/outdoorsman, wanted to be a witch hunter. He was captured and killed while scouting the incoming Nakki army before the HRTP. 30 days played.
5. Torrian (Tori) - stump warrior. I wanted to make a PC that could be part of the upcoming HRTP war between Nak and Tuluk but it was only 2 weeks away, so I made a dwarf and got him in the Legion. The whole Byn attacked him first thing and got him down to 6 hp instantly so I still didn't get to do much, lol. I stumbled around lost, afraid I'd fall off my inix and kill him but some hunter found him and showed him the way to the fort. Tori was executed at 46 days and I'm still angry about that one.
6. Gonna have to wait!
Feckless oxen.
0. The Dragon - Stored. Total twink and complete douchebag. Killed 'The Empire' (go back to starwars mud n00bs). Got into some shit with Utep (also a super twink). Got bored. Retired. Might unstore.
1. Kranisan(a long, long time ago) - Dead. Died in the Bard's Barrel begging for food, starved to death. Welcome to Arm n00b.
2. Manji - Dead Bynner. Character that got me addicted to Arm, and introduction to the glories of Spider Nest missions while not having set up a prompt.
3. Kuroi - Dead Sergeant of the AoD. Complete asshole. Ended up in the pit, very well deserved.
4. Sadie - Dead First Tuluki.
5. Kasyh (2005)- Stored First Vivaduan.
6. Ralek (2006)- Stored First Rinther.
7. Uruma (2006)- Dead First Tuluki soldier and (albeit) brief introduction to the plainsman.
8. Shiran (2007)- Dead First Templar. Utter sadistic psychopath. Had a thing for torture. Helped the CAM along until even they had enough of his shit and betrayed him, survived, had the majority of them killed. Was a walking drama bomb when drama was being traded like spice amongst the nobility at that time. Was appropriately killed at the most inconvenient time imaginable as a player. Loved every second.
9. Khaliryn (2007)- Dead Preserver. Not going into detail with this one.
10. Galt (2007) - Stored
11. Anthinius (2008) - Stored That's Imperial Lord Oash to you. Was around during the 'end times', and probably had a higher casualty count than Shiran towards the end. He was my favorite, and could make a post about him, but got a lot of things done and seen some of the craziest stuff I've ever seen in my time playing. MIDGE, MALLOR, SAMOS, EDOM, and some many others, too many to mention, I loved / hated you all. Retired due to being promoted beyond playability.
12. Nakirn (2009) - Dead. Tuluki. My very last character killed by another player. Don't get gypsies pregnant, fellas.
13. Kanturo (2010) - Stored Byn Sergeant. Him and Berk (think that was the name) were like the good / evil of the Byn at the time.
14. Okamishi (2010) - Stored
15. Raudelbry (2010) - Stored Tuluki Templar. Had a concept but unfortunately time became getting scarcer from here on.
*Break*
16. Kernak (2011) - Stored
17. Kesson (2011) - Stored Kadian Tuluki. Again casualty of my job and lack of play times.
*Break*
18. Malkreth (2012) - Stored Bynner / Mal of the AoD. My very first Torgun. Basically made this guy into a space marine - very loyal and absolutely dedicated to the City. Had a couple PCs in a family role too. Lots of fun. Retired to 'join the black legion' or whatever.
*Pretty big break*
19. Kophen - Stored Crafter. Just a throw away to play a little here and there while working.
*Huge Break*
20. Goran (2016) - Stored Not going to touch this one just yet.
*Break*
1) Saphris - Dead - Shy, cowardly AoD Clerk (I miss clerks!) who ended up being coerced into spying for the gypsies. He fled to Luir's and died being escorted back to no doubt be horribly tortured to death by Validos Fale. I was way too trusting.
2) Leyana - Stored - This was a Kuraci recruit usually called Growl. She taught me that I hate sparring clans.
3) Belyn - Stored - A dumb and floofy guy that was a Bynner. Apparently I hadn't properly learned my lesson about hating sparring clans.
4) Jaylen - Stored - Some family role call sekkrit breed. His sister ended up getting gemmed. He was a cross-dresser who loved purple and joined Kadius. I just stopped feeling it after a while and couldn't bring myself to log in anymore, so I stored.
5) Jenedes - Stored - Some random AoD recruit. Not only did I forget I hated sparring clans, I had to take a long break and when I came back I couldn't get into her anymore.
6) Breck - Dead - My first, totally unsuccessful crack at a magicker (viv). I died to some tarantula trying to make it south to Allanak.
7) Sereth - Stored - My second, slightly more successful but still not all-that-successful crack at a Vivaduan. Some goofy gemmed loser who fancied himself an artist. I don't know.
8 ) Akhet - Dead - My third, shameful attempt at a magicker. Rukkian HG. I tried to make him dumb but uncannily mystical, but he just ended up seeming way smarter than he should have been. If I ever do HG again, I am going to learn from my mistakes.
9) Aralu - Dead - Some random Sun Runner.
10) Aphra - Dead - Boy, I sure do like those magickers, I guess. This was a chronically depressed, sex-hating Vivaduan prostitute who eventually got gemmed and killed by Borsail and the templarate.
11) Kalila - Stored - Some dumb AoD recruit whose shameful secret was that her VNPC mother was a defiler. I liked the concept, but I...once again forgot that I hate sparring clans.
12) Karan - Dead - A spec app Elkrosian that died to a jozhal. I'm not proud.
13) Lucithyrion - Dead - This was a truly embarrassing character. A noble that was outmatched and outplayed by pretty much everyone else around him. I was trying to make him decadent and sex-addicted and get him into trouble with his habits, but I think I just gave the impression that I the player was creepily obsessed with mudsex, a reputation I sometimes wondered if I'd ever be able to shake. He had some good moments, but overall I am not proud of him. Eventually I was so fed up that I asked staff if I could kill him off with an STD, which they helped me do, although actually he committed suicide to save himself from further suffering.
14) Iaphet - Dead - A Krathi that was basically Milton from Office Space. Kept being mistaken for a Drovian because he wore all black (he liked the heat!) and had 'ethereal' in his sdesc (he was 3/8 elf!) Died to a mekillot. Oops!
15) Ander - Stored - Pykapp (Friday)'s brother, but we didn't really get to play much together before she died. The rest of the family fell apart for reasons. I was also an idiot with the code and was constantly berated by my superiors for being a moron. And then I remembered OH YEAH I STILL HATE SPARRING CLANS.
16) Seren - This was a brief Oash aide, a child of gemmers. I actually really enjoyed playing her, but I stored her to play in the advertised Tablelands plot.
17) Hamim - Dead - This was my Seik character, my first tribal. I still miss him. I won't say how I died because the al'Seik may have their own theories about it. I feel like this is when I really grew as a player.
18) Arikatya - Stored - Haha, this tribal was on an Amish-style Rumspringa and basically treated Allanak like her Spring Break. Her 'city name' was Onerus, because she heard someone say 'onerous' and liked the sound of it. I played her to comfort myself after Hamim, and was hoping she'd be killed gloriously. But no matter what an idiot she was, no one wanted to kill her for some reason. So I stored before she got too boring.
19) Kid - Dead - This was my first try at a subguild magicker. She was an adorable breed who teleported to her doom. Oops!
20) Azad - Stored - A gemmed merchant/corruption viv with the best stats ever. Of COURSE I'd get stats like that on a goddamn merchant.
21) Iksa - Dead - I really do have a problem, don't I? Yet another magicker. This one was part of a PC tribe from beyond the Known, basically. I ended up getting gemmed and dying to some crimcode weirdness that I still say is fucked up, but whatever.
22) Erid - Dead - Some dumb hyper-empathetic assassin who wanted to cure the world by killing everyone who was suffering too much.
23) Quin - Stored - This character lasted like...a few hours before I stored to play #25. We don't talk about #24. Quin was a product of a woman's eugenics project, basically. Very pretty, and bred to be a beloved aide or concubine. His eyes were blank and he came across dumb as hell. But secretly, he wanted to be Conan the Barbarian! He ended up giving some guy a handjob for money while fantasizing in detail about his outlaw alter-ego's scimitar glinting in the sun as he pillaged his way across the Known with his trusty mul companion.
24) ?? - Dead - This one was generously retconned by staff. Let us not linger here any longer.
25) Lorael - Dead - A mul's bondmate. With her I experienced some of my favorite scenes EVER in the game. Yes I know her name sounds like lipstick. She died to my own moronic typo-esque mistake and I will always regret it.
26) Catrin - Stored - A psi from Luir's with a big personality. I was gonna make her a cult leader, but things happened.
27) Aster - Stored - This was a special role for a special role call, a one-day event sort of thing with the understanding that we'd be stored after it was over. I had loads of fun.
28) Zali - Stored - This was some kind of hedgehog man. I got bored quickly.
29) Zulekha - Stored - I guess I thought it was a good idea to make a max age Arabet merchant. I'm not sure why. I liked her but she got pretty dull to play.
30) ?? - Stored
31) ?? - Dead
32) ?? - Alive
33) ?? (gladiator) - Dead

10) Flessa - Dead

27) Sisynne - Stored - the one character I think won the game - played her after aging 30 yrs (or some such ridiculous thing) and she was awesome, ended up in Tuluk where she entered the heart... and lived to tell about it. She ended up completely opposite of where I thought she'd be. So in love with Tasok Salarr and they never did nothing.

35) Devlanshy - Dead - Shy the whore - death to peppers and player panic - unmanifested drovian that was about to turn - started out at 100 sid a pop and ended at 1000 sid a pop all while having monogamous lovers.

That wasn't an attack at all! It was an explanation to Sprinkles! I have no lingering anythings over the happenings of that character. Your editing sure makes it look like I did though. :P
It came off as a flame. Staff isn't waving their mean staff wand. I saw it because it was reported by other gdb folks. I (a helper mod) would have moderated it too.
I revived this! ;D
110) Alive
I won't go over the full list. It's actually a bit higher, because I multiplayed on accounts when I first started arming (though the characters weren't associated with each other).
2 too many
Limiting it to those with 2+ days played (I'm a playtime weakling) or that I otherwise remember:
1) Ava - 2 hours played - Murdered by rinth NPC.
2) Geil - 1 day played - Dead. Rinthi bard who sang thinly-adapted Gilbert & Sullivan songs. I'm so sorry.
3) Elena - 12 days - Stored. Amber Wyverns 4ever.
[one year gap till the next PC]
6) Marik - 4 days - Stored. First of several marginally succesful elementalists.
8] Jaira - 6 days - Stored. My first halfway-decent character: a kid of northern parentage who grew up in Allanak after the Copper War and joined the militia.
11) Jakub - 14 days - Dead. Second halfway-decent character; bastard son of Great Lord Samos, for all the good it did him. Killed by forestjunkie's Soh right outside the gates of Allanak...which is massively stupid, but I was being stupid too.
18) Sagyndyk - 2 days - Dead. Unclanned tribal siblings but it turns out that's hard.
26) Vadia - 13 hours - Dead. Special app unclanned tribal whiran who started in Luirs with 0% sirihish. Sigh.
29) Visellia - 19 days - Dead. Rukkian who got her playtime by idling back when you could <censored>. I did branch all but one spell AFAIK.
47) Kalila - 13 days - Stored. Assassin / master tailor who wound up as Lyvrenxice's dimwitted aide for a while. Lyvren kept her unbothered and she paid for Lyvren's swanky apartment with her silky brae pipeline.
48) Fetch - I had a no-shit Lightning Elementalist PC and I freakin' stored him after one hour.
65) current - alive for over 3 days.
That's under 80 days all told over 12 years...so apparently I barely play Arm even when I'm playing. :-[
1) Fizz - Died to scorpions because I was new and didn't know poison was such a big thing. Went out screaming.
2) Matisse (You can tell by my username I expected her to live longer) - Died to soldiers because someone ratted her out when she said the corporal was a bag of dicks. Went out screaming.
3-9) ???? - Hasn't been a year quite yet. Can't indulge in details, but there have indeed been murders, corruptions, and betrayals.
10 (Current)) ???? - Hasn't been a year quite yet. But having great fun. ;)
A thing I've realised looking back on my chars - I just... don't play boys. I probably should at some point, but... Eh.

Haha, new goal.
I've had many, because I have a compulsion to store often over something stupid. Staff helps me by having a policy about me that I don't store more than once a month.
One.
Wow! I'm seeing a lot of you old timers, some of who were vets when *I* was a newb, are playing again! That is awesome, and it's making me want to play again too (but I can't :'( ).

1) Tare - Dead. Died because I couldn't figure out how to leave a tent and it wasn't listed in the room descriptions at the time. Attacked an NPC, hoping I would be able to flee out.
2) Nsut - Dead, 2 days played. Breed. Died to gith on the north road, after being hired to deliver or pick up something from Luirs.
3) Zeke - Dead, 16 days. First character that lived a bit longer. Indie hunter working for Zoticus. Died after eating a peraine'd steak found on the road. Some borsail noble came by, fainted and my paralyzed character got blamed.
4) Tabansi - Dead, 1 day 7 hours. Delf that tried to raid some humans outside of Allanak and got stomped.
5) Rian - Stored, 3 days 21 hours. ATV delf. Got bored being a merchant and having no one to play with.
6) Ita - Dead, 30 days. First hunter for Kadius under Sharlo. Pretty boring character, but I did find the conclave tower unlocked and walked in - was quickly chased out by an animated NPC. Died to... cilops due to going afk after my neighbor knocked on the door.
7) Olga - Dead, 9 hours, first rinthi. Died to one-hit backstab by some player who must have been practicing or was after the noob coin. I was sure this had been an NPC until I got my account notes.
8) Anca - Dead 9 days, Tuluki burglar breed. Most fun I've ever had in Tuluk. Fled to Red Storm after a Lirathan interrogated her and walked into the silt sea.
9) Staub - Dead, 8 days 13 hours. Red Storm Rukkian. Raptored during a trip to Luir's.
10) Jarrel - Stored, 23 days, 15 hours. My horribly boring Tan Muark.

14) Current - Alive
I've had a great time on #13 and #14, so far.
Out of all of these, the only ones I recognize are Aida, Sefaj, Silteye and Kitt Borsail. (EDIT: and Samos).
It's either really hard to achieve a prominent character, or my memory just doesn't retain them.
Still remember Aida being caught up in the war mission through and under the Codrek estate. It was fun watching her react to everything (including the cowardly soldier).
Wow you guys are good. Been playing since around 2002 and I've had 125 plus one current. My love of exploring probably is at the root, I die a lot going solo in the wastes or the slums looking to find something cool. Sometimes I do.
1) Raf - Dead Pickpocket. Hired within 5 minutes of play by Kuraci family member. Died at 4 days played to spider.
2) Rastan - Dead Burglar. Hired into Tor. Lasted 8 days played.
3) Stevith - Dead Assassin. Run through Byn to Sergeant. Died during HRPT liberation of Tuluk after racking up a few templar kills, to three units of half-giants.
4) Kor - Dead
5) Landis - Dead Rukkian desert elf. Had a twin brother who was a Krathi.
6) Grog - Dead Giant. Only Tuluki rebel to survive bombing the Tor Academy. Somehow gets Corporal in the legions and dies during the Mantis invasion.

8) Ralnok - Dead Desert elf Gladiatior.
9) Trellen - Dead 'rinth elf whiran. Knifed for being on the wrong rooftop.

11) Tolan - Dead Sorceror of the *Redacted*. Destroyed the Dark Mistress and freed the ghoul elkran Quick from slavery. Then magicked that bastard up and unleashed him into the alleys.
12) Kaalan - Dead Vivaduan of the Akei. Got knocked out fighting a young duskhorn while spelled up. Took a -long- time to die.
13) Torlan - Dead First and only mul. Byn slave. Pretty sure a mindbender pushed him over the edge and he started raging.
14) Jorkan - Dead
15) Amos - Dead Albino Krathi. Busted by Tor I think, killed when he refused to spy on Kadius.
16) Ptak - Dead Halfling sorceror. Somehow found a magick artifact that allowed access to the guild storeroom. Sure freaked them out.
17) Tellak - Dead
18) Talon - Dead Attempt at Psion.
19) Kolt - Dead Elkran. Most known for helping create a volcano.
20) Lans - Dead Attempt at Nilazi.

23) Tovan - Dead
24) Tasok - Stored Salarr family member who won Armageddon. Force-stored due to age.
25) Current
The downside to having long-lived characters, is you have to re-learn how to make a character everytime. All the guilds/subguilds have changed!
Some characters may be confused with others.
I've been away for so long (and back for less than a year) that I don't recognize anyone, but Sakra, I think I remember your Amos.
Holy Toledo Sakra! You did win the game! I loved Tasok when I got to interact with him!
Fucking Tolan.
I hate this post, with jealousy.
1. Naph - Dead - AoD Private Died on the trip back from an HRPT... from thirst. I idled out in the wagon because I had to leave for work! Doh! Managed to land an arrow into a Tuluki soldier PC before they completely escaped. Special thanks to QuillDipper and several others for showing me the ropes.
2. Mund - Stored - Took a hunter job for Salarr when there weren't any Salarr folks to hunt with.
3. Lach - Dead - AoD Private Also known as "Lick". Got into some -crazy- stuff. ;) Stole... so many things... from so many people... ::) Got burned up trying to drag his friends corpse away from some angry rabble. Had a serious amount of fun.
4. *** - Dead - Spec app, died within first 2 hours of play. New starting area for me as player. :o #forevernoob
5. *** - Dead - Indie To soon to speak of. Hopefully some folks might have had good memories of this one, I know I do. :-X
6. I'm writing this one up, and waiting until I have time to invest in playing a character.

What a fun read this thread is. So many memories!
1) Jaleeza - Dead -- Allanaki pickpocket. Dipped her hand into a couple of pockets. Died to NPCs after 5 hours played.
2) Mezzi - Dead -- Rinthi pickpocket. Dipped her hand into a couple of pockets. Died to NPCs but this time after an epic 2 days played!
3) Yzbella - Stored -- Coded pickpocket but this time I learned you didn't have to actually play your guild. Street juggler who did a lot of shows all over Allanak. Had many, many adventures. Went through the Atrium, became aide to Lord Prian Borsail. Promoted to senior aide and beyond. Stored after played for over a year.
4) Darian - Stored -- Was my 1st Tuluki bard. The foppish, ringletted man. Partisan to a Tenneshi Chosen Lord. He was hated by most people except for a few women who were always giving him gifts looking for sexual favours but he wasn't into women.
** Long Break **
5) Dakbellatina - Stored -- My one and only Bynner. The burly, gap-toothed woman. Stored to take a sponsored role.
6) Shandral - Stored -- Atrium hostess. Loved the Atrium but it was a challenging role for I always felt tied to the location and it was hard to have a personal life.
7) Lapitia - Stored -- Lady Lapitia Fale. The plump, prismatic-haired woman. The house had just reopened for play and it was so much fun to play one of the nobles. Had a beribboned Kank named Binky who she wrote a poem about. Taught her bodyguard to recite it and other dreadful poems she'd written. Exciting time to play in Allanak with lots going on there and in the whole world. Played for about 1.5 RL years. Force stored after doing some "bad stuff". To be clear, it was the character who did bad stuffz, not the player! Really.
8) Sekrit - Stored
9) Billsie - Dead -- my 2nd Tuluki bard -- the tawny, braid-crowned half-giant. Went for a grittier bard this time with a HG. My favourite character ever. Had a Faithful Lady (or Fateful Lady as Billsie called her) for a patron then later worked for Kadius besides doing bardish things in Tuluk. She died to Allanak gate guards, aka spice code.
10) Saetta - Dead -- My first magicker. An Elkrosian gemmed who eventually worked for Oash along with quite a big group of gemmers. Fun group to play with. Died to spiders as did several other gemmed in the group (I think). Lord Anthinius was probably not pleased!
11) Aysun - Stored -- 2nd magicker -- Nilazi -- Played a few RL months. Stored to play a sponsored role but I think would have stored pretty soon anyway as the isolation was hard. She wasn't the type who, you know, made friends or even wanted to.
12) Lyris - Dead -- Tuluki noble. Lyris Dasari. In her quest to promote her House in commercial ways and not just for herb/healing lore, she made some new wines and invented sparkling wine. Had a long-time relationship with Raleris Winrothol but turned down his marriage proposals as she was ambitious and wanted to move up in her House. Had a wonderful death, dying to a disease induced by post-flood molds. (staff killed me at my request because I didn't have time to play the role any longer)
13) Noholds - Stored -- 3rd Tuluki bard -- really put the gritty into bard this time with a belching, cursing, unsubtle dwarf. For some reason, had trouble finding a patron!! Worked for an indie Trading Company. Stored because I just didn't enjoy playing a dwarf.
14) Adia - Stored -- throwaway crafter who worked for Kadius. Stored to play a sponsored role.
15) Tiana - Stored -- Tan Muark
16) Adieri - Stored -- 3rd magicker. Whiran gemmed. Lots of gemmed playing at the time so enjoyed the Quarter but I sucked as a magicker mainly because I sucked at learning the code stuff.

Danu thought this guy was great. I remember when they found a mantis hiding in a wagon in the wagon-yard together. Was it Darian who had those awesome drinking songs?

Oh, oh, Lapitia. The merrry, pedestrian-terrorizing joyrides on the ContraBandWagon. Dinner dates under the pergola in the evening on the Fale Estate, drinking and watching the bats together. You finding the live, still-beating ensorcelled heart in the hidden pocket of my cloak. So many, fond, fond memories
8 ) Sekrit - Stored
So many talks under the tower of melted faces.
9) Billsie - Dead -- my 2nd Tuluki bard -- the tawny, braid-crowned half-giant. Went for a grittier bard this time with a HG. My favourite character ever.

67) Eshak (the rugged, obsidian-maned man) - generic Bynner. Bailed out of jail by Sergeant Cilla of blessed memory. I ain't do nothin' wrong. 6 days.

Quote from: Bio: Still Keep Expecting Him : Apr 13, 2021
It was dawn on Ocandra, the 78th day of the Low Sun
In the Year of Silt's Defiance, year 75 of the 22nd Age
On a completely routine patrol down the southern caravan route, Sentry Joz was killed by an unknown raider. Me and the new novice, the one named <censored>, brought his body back. I know I'd only known him a couple years, but it feels like it was longer. It feels like I lost a brother.
I still keep expecting to turn around and see him. Expect his hand on my shoulder, surprising me one last time.
I could go through the whole list but that might take awhile, a lot of my early pc's were not memorable in the least. Here's some more recent ones that I have some fond memories of.
75) Lazvr - Dead - the harsh, razor-thin elf, known as Two Moons (two moons tribe didn't exist yet), eventually known as Howls at death. Red Fang Packleader, possessed by something terrifying, eventual reason for their downfall.
145) Aldren - Dead - the spartan, peshek-brown man, Sergeant Aldren, lyksaen slave granted his "freedom" to lead and help evolve the Tuluki militia, good times! Found out more than a RL year after his death someone raised a clan in his name which was pretty dang cool!
172) Diz - Stored -the worn, short-haired woman - Sergeant Diz of the Byn, my first ever Byn Sergeant I think? Good times!
188) Laea - Stored - the pale, short-haired elf, known as laea the jeweler, Painted Elves assassin, then leader.
189) Kiff - Dead - the swarthy, dark-bearded man - Captain Kiff, had a family with a whiran (which nobody spilled the beans on or exploited!) likely one of my top 3 faves to date due to the sheer amount of craziness they were involved in. His fight to become Captain, his eventual fall and exile, his violent climb back for vengeance and a whole lot of betrayal in that story.
191) Kutai - Dead - the waste-worn, starveling elf - (favorite sdesc ever) sorceror believed to be a force of good by so many, how horribly wrong they were. Ended up dying to a room link error during an rpt, the rez was worked in as a thread of story involving things going on by Rathustra which added even more fun. Return to play involved loss of memory, loss of magick ability and a freakish wound in her chest that wouldn't heal because of [sekrits]
192) Ayen - Stored - the large, big-bearded man - likely one of the most hilariously racist pc's I've ever played, I thoroughly enjoyed being both racist and inclusive with roleplay at the same time. I thought he was a blast.
196) Ijji - Stored - the broad, notch-eared elf known as Bends Bows of the Two Moons, mage, part-time assassin, mentor to some. First time playing a Two Moons.
198) Rhast - Dead - Known as Ribi, the thick, dark-skinned mul, quite a unique experience all around. Surrounded by SO many amazing roleplayers at the time that really made this experience unique.
203) Current.

Ijji! You were actually the first mentor I'd ever had from someone in the same tribe/pack, and also the same magical element. That was a blast. I was the young, black-footed elf or something.
I have 313 characters of which I don't believe anybody remembers any of them vividly. Lol, died a lot early on for sure.

You were one of the more memorable experiences I had, super fun. One of my favorite aspects of the game to play out actually!
Gortok's Cowl - The scar-etched, long-haired elf.
He and one other awesome RF player. We began the demise of RF by doing something Staff forbade us from doing. We created the first camp. It was basically a bunch of tents and some ldesc changed items to make it look lived in. At that time RF would just get created in the outpost and their lifespan heavily depended on how quickly they could change clothing to appear as SR, or ATV before SLK murders them. We would collect the loosely survived RF and bring them to the camp. We did that inbetween all the MUD crashes that our multitude of unpacked tents created :). Then Loonsh took over the tribe and helped made it sooooper awesome. But alask, that came after Gortok's Cowl's death.
Ashad Lyrun - lithe unruly-maned elf
My first take on a merchant PC. Started somewhere midrank, but ended up being a Dealer and played his full in Akai Sjir. Very very very awesome. I enjoyed a lot of aspects of that gameplay. Including my small rivalry with Qoriya. I would consistently disrespect and insult her via subtle means and in my mind. And I, as a player, was very proud that Qoriya did not kill Ashad for good 3 months. He had a lot of very good memorable stories. He was the one who sent a dwarf who tried killing Anthinius Oash and blew up the Azure Dragon. And he did it ... for free, because Ashad figured out which buttons to push with that dwarf. Ironically, the proudest moment I had was about 6-12 months later after Ashad's death. When one of my other characters witnessed an insult Ashad crafted for Qoriya finally get realized by Qoriya. The fact that I was in the room to see it with another character was extra fun. I don't know if the player recognized my play style and made an effort to be extra graphic with their reaction, or not. But it was very satisfactory. Ironically, being an elf Ashad was insulted and dissed all the time and he was pretty much indifferent about it. The reason for the rivalry with Qoriya was due to a joke Qoriya made about the quality of stone craftsmanship that Akai Sjir had leading to the death of some fool that Ashad arranged the death of. He finally forgave the slight when Qoriya saved the life of his tribemate.
Ash (Halves) - the gaunt, filth covered elf
He was a Drovian rinthi elf. His background was that Oashi captured a rinthi elf, massacred his entire tiny tribe, then performed experiments on him to wake him up as a Drovian. He actually had a sublimenal law inserted into his head to worship and adore Oashi nobility. But I never had the opportunity to explore that character trait. About ... 2 days in his gameplay, he got recruited into a Jaxa Pah that was just just just created as a clan. Another elf that was a Nilazi was also recruited in. These two rogue mages created a schism in the tribe. The Staff didnt want the clan to have gickers in, but they didnt write it into the theme yet. The mundane part of the tribe divded in those who want to be mundane only and those who were okey with Drovian/Nilazi. Ash solved the problem by killing the Nilazi and leaving the tribe. After that, I simply ... wanted ... to ... fucking ... die. I hoped the character to play in Jaxa Pah, so once staff made it clear they hope to make it mundane only, the whole character concept became redundant. So I tried very hard to die and move on. But he just fucking refused! He became the 'guardian' of the Labyrinth, protecting it from mages.
He did a lot of weird shit. As probably one of the most memorable crazinesses, he gave Nyr 2 weeks forewarning that he is about to raid the Estates where Red Robes lived in. Then had Nyr watching over the heist. He outwitted the magical defenses that the templarate quarters had. Infiltrated the Red Robe Estate and began the process of robbing it blind. Had a Red Robe NPC show up and chase him. Finally the templar caught him. On the way to the jails, Ash tried to steal the NPC's metal dagger and got smacked around. Finally the Red Robe NPC gave Ash over to the Blue Robe PC, who interrogated him. During the interrogation, Ash weaved a story that the Templar (who was abso-lutely-fucking awesome) later used for an AoD rp event and all together stalled and delayed until the magick that Red Robe placed wore off. Once that happened, Ash disabled the Templar and escaped the Jail. Instead of running away, he went BACK to the Red Robe Estates and began to continue trying to rob it. The NPC Red Robe ... came back. But not immediately. First, they placed guard NPCs on every escape to prevent Ash leaving the templarate quarter. All except One. Which Ash figured out and escaped when Red Robe began to chase him again. Someone tells you ooc, "How The HELL did you escape !?!?!" message from staff just ... made ... my ... day. When I was chilling in Red Storm. Totally naked, but alive.
That Elf and that Templar became useful to each other afterwards. Eventually, Ash was instrumental in a plot that caused a plague in Oashi vineyards (wasnt intentional :). He also killed a Jihaen Templar and brought his gear to the Templar, who then dressed a Borsail npc slave in it and then publicly executed a 'Jihaen Templar' in the arena.
Ripples = the dreadlocked, haggard elf
I'm going to refrain from describing the bio of that elf, because Loonsh stole that idea and is using it right now.
Shaze = the hawkish, brown-haired man
He was a nilazi/jeweler. He became an aide to Takharion and I totally loved playing him. He did not manifest for 99% of his entire gameplay. But I took my time manifesting him over the months. Being so extremely exposed to a lot of magickal shit working for AoD.
Showe = Mdesc/Sdesc changed ... too many times.
If anyone saw a scene in the Gaj with a kank fly buzzing around. A rinthi HG creating a little exercise yard for the kank fly to overcome, only to finally drop down into a shot of whisky and dissolving inside. Then moments later, a Lady Fale ran past, scooped up the shot and drunk it dry. I was playing the kank fly.
Kozh = the gangly, close-cropped youth
A Mindbender youngster who joined the Byn. I genuinely felt bad he was a mind bender, because it was soooo fun playing in Byn. I swear, if I had the option to cease being a psionicist and become a regular ranger, I would've taken that option. I totally enjoyed playing in Byn. With Majikal's sargeant and this one other awesome Pink-haired Sargeant. Secretive mindbender I was not. I fragrantly teased 'everyone' about being blatantly mindworm. Whenever we rode out on patrols, people would point out dangers they saw in cardinal directions, while I was pointing out intermediate directions :). And yet nobody ... noooooobody ousted me, or even 'suspected me' extra. I think I've got myself found out 8 times? I even had a templar pretend to not notice an obvious goof on my end.
Wril = frail elvish male Patch Patches Tusk Scal Ahm Puns Stinkyfoot Jeweler
He began his story as a youth, but he was around long enough to become an old elf. He was at first a crafter in East Side Kings. But later on, ended up being a founder of an elven group called Association, the painted elves, yada, yada. He did .. a lot of shit. Including literal 'shit'. Alas, I've grown busier and busier, so a lot of my plots and beginnings got ruined by periodic absences. He was a fun character though.
Being = the hunched, tumor-covered being
A creature living in the sewers. If you played someone who was into sewers last RL year, I might've ... haunted you a little bit. That Borsail Noble who pretended not to notice when I materialized and shared a bath with him, before winking out. Decades of sewage dissolving in the warm soapy water. My deepest compliments and respects with your character's reaction. I hoped to create enough mischief to have a fun target for Jal and AoD forces to come a-hunting me in the sewers, but I died to something stupid as it often happens.
Daaang, hearing about all of these awesome PCs that've come and gone really makes me wanna up my game all the more.
I only have 18 under my belt so far since starting this February, and only 2 of those were actually memorable, with one being fairly recent. ;D
I love this trend. So, I've been playing a long long time, before the account system was around. My favourites are bards, of course.
Klyrr (Groot) - Travelled the world spinning stories about the Grandmaster of all bards, Holt Irofel!
Ceridwen (Irofel) - a bard who had 'bard' in the sdesc! 2002 or 2003 or something.
Lukashi Driamusek - a bard early on in New Poets' Circle history.
Also notable were some Tuluki assassins:
Detal Black
Caitlin-Ji
Guilder:
Blades (some mean woman around the time Gin was Guild Leader)
I took a long break and lost an account, then we have this trend:
2) Vigil - Was a physician around the time Tuluk had a plague
13) Xera - (Sara) Jade Sabers assassin who got in on killing a Red Robe.
18) Quinn (Flame) a burglar in the Guild, brief leadership
22) Logos - Stored - (an Atrium student and teaching assistant)
27) Veriknotchi - Stored (aka Fate, a Guild leader)
29) Moxy - Stored (A well liked adventurer)
39) Taunt - Stored (Guild enforcer)
42) Olivya - Stored (a tribal from a far off land who believed we were in the land of the dead)
43) Morlaw - Stored (the poet, Morlaw, a rinthi poet of some 40+ days)
54) Kvythian - (Driamusek Bard, one of the first Tuluki bards I had played in a King's Age)
Everything else too recent to share I figure! I sometimes take long breaks between characters that I get into.
If you want to reconnect with me because you knew some of these ones, send me a message to this account on the GDB!
Quote from: Tuannon on June 03, 2018, 11:39:13 AM
Maybe 12 since 1999... Let me log on and check.
1. Kyr - Stored - Borsail recruit who made it to Sergeant, lived about 60 days played as an assassin in an at the time full unit of Amber Wyverns. Stored over something I said OOC to a player.
2. Drokh - Died to a Raptor - Indy ranger around Tuluk, really boring to play and kind of why I never play 'full' rangers any more.
3. Tembrik - Died to a Well - Rinther dwarf, gave me a reason to not like the rinth. But to be fair, dwarves are kinda out of place there in the raw political sense.
4. Emokir - Died to a Whiran (?) - Semi Tuluki Ranger who made his living as a courier. Notable waylaid by a rukkian for a frypan and delivered some troll letters for Ceylara Borsail to Tuluk.
5. Coaxoch - Stored - Tribal warrior who walked to Allanak from Tuluk over the course of a while, joined Kadius out of desperation, ended up running the southern crew.
6. Buhz - Force Stored (93) - Last long lived human slave PC before they lowered the boom on that stuff. Served Ceylara Borsail, most notably saved her from a Roc (thanks Veddi). Long lived, boring personality due to heavy Borsail indoctrination.
7. Greffokh - Stored - Tuluki Legionaire, did a bunch of stuff for a few Jihaens, defied orders to save some little kid templar from a kryl, stored over in clan politics I didn't care for.
8. Otiartes - Templared - Spider disaster survivor, used to slack off in the tavern. Ended up being accused of being a mindworm and executed by his Corporal. Wasn't a mindworm.
9. Khax - Stored - Had a cooler full name (Ilu'Khax) but hell if I remember it, loyal servant of Raleris Winrothol who used to hunt with Fanny a lot for training (and spying) purposes. Used to train with city elves a lot to keep an eye on them and help them out, not as smart as people thought he was.
10. Rihat - Dasari-ed - Some fuckwit stableboy who hired on with Salarr and ended up running the show (from the practical side). Sold out by someone, the usual politics. Also appreciated the gloating DM from a player claiming to have orchestrated this event.
I have three after Rihat but I'm not really keen on talking about them. I didn't enjoy them really also the year thing.
11.
Thonapa - Stored - Made a character intended on being a medic in the Legion or a Partisan support character. Tuluk closed and I didn't feel like setting up shop with the Crimson Wind after riding (without direction sense) across the world.
12.
Dimerita - Dead - Started as a Bynner, ended up being hired by Beikon Oash as an adjunct and almost made Advisor. Was extremely paranoid so didn't do the seggs, was eventually killed for it (and probably other reasons) in the Elite barracks meeting room by a krathi.
13.
Masiri - Stored - Al'Seik hunter I made after a discussion with an ex-staffer about tribal lore, was kind of fun but really joined the Seik at a downswing in good fit opportunities. I ended up storing because I wasn't enjoying being stuck in camp for months on end due to elves, rampaging gith or there being nothing to eat that could be hunted. The solution here would have been take wilderness forage.
14. STILL ALIVE
So yeah, all mundane humans aside from Tembrik. And really more role players than magnificent world changers as is my wont.
Currently on PC #112, keeping in mind I've had a couple multi-year breaks. Those are very front stacked; death was a lot more common for for the first 75 or 80 characters.
203 total since 2003 or something like that. Here are a few memorable ones:
14) Kallot – Kurac Outrider, the experience where I first really fell in love with this game.
21) Zuuros – Mul Borsail slave, killed in Luirs during a dust-up with the Sandman, when the Sandman was leading the Blackmoon. So long ago I barely remember much else.
72) Traum – The crude, meaty half-giant. Loved elves and did whatever they wanted him to do. Enjoyed being a Sandas henchman until he was sent to his demise. Arrested and died in the arena.
83) Hleshma – SLK PC that didn't live terribly long, but caused a lot of shit, and was the first PC that got me into tribal play.
94) Baz - Dwarven Guild muscle. Traded poisons and took assassin contracts from the SLK on gemmed within Allanak. My favourite backstab moment of all time: hunted by militia in the city after a dust-up on caravan way, I was down to 6hp, I see the militia PC aiming their bow to finish me off two screens over. I double-backed for the backstab and put them down before they could get the arrow off. Player filed a complaint, don't try to PK if you can't handle getting PK'd, very lame.
131) Ibdoleth – Human ranger in Salarr. Intentionally a flavour, support role type PC that ended up being super fun. Stands out for some reason, although I've had a bunch of PC's like this. Not sure why?
142) Seulif – Al'Seik – The reedy, yypr-skinned man. Merchant/scouting nice-guy on the outside, ruthless killer on the inside who collected tens of thousands in bounties and fucked up anyone that hurt or threatened his people, or showed up where they didn't belong. Died to a mob with a script I was unfamiliar with. Them's the breaks.
145) Amhazeir – The leathery, squint-eyed dwarf. Called himself the silt prophet and would "trade" silt charms for coins or valuable items... and kill you if you didn't accept the trade. Favourite method of killing? Knock you out, drag you to the silt sea, and make you walk out waist deep in an area of known mean creatures, to allow the silt to decide your fate.
179) Flint – Half-elf with the Crimson Wind. Wore a Nenyuki signet ring from a raid. Was hunted by Kurac, hunted by Kadius, and was outlawed in every major city, as is my favourite way to play this game. Had some really fun confrontations and battles with the byn.
183) Gazanzar "The Fortuneteller" – The scraggly, septum-pierced man. Used a kruth deck to tell fortunes, and sometimes to decide whether or not it was time to shed blood. Told fortunes in and around Red Storm, shot soldiers with arrows, fucked up desert elves, assassinated some special ops type Kuraci... forget how he died, but probably stupid. Had no end goal, just followed the deck and the moons' guidance. Outlawed everywhere, and rumored to be a sorcerer (he wasn't).
184) Ashes – The bleak, pallid-eyed mul. Byn slave that eventually rose to Slave-Sergeant. One of the hardest roles I've played, but oddly satisfying. Lack of meaningful PC vs PC conflict and a hard time accommodating late night playtimes that are often needed for Byn contracts caused me to store this character. *Public service announcement* If you're a raider with a hardcore reputation, and a byn slave calls you out over the way while they're on a ride, go to battle.
190) Jallal known as "Obsidian" – The septum-pierced dwarven female. Escaped slave who's children were still missing somewhere in 'nak or in the mines. Ruthlessly and ceaselessly hunted and tormented 'nakkies as a Crimson Wind reaver, in search and in retribution for her missing children. Assassinated a Templar's Aide Vivaduan, took down a couple of byn troopers, would take on 3-5 PC soldiers at once by herself in the sands and escaped with her life... then tarantula'd in a flukey death. Oh, the highlight was staging a battle of 5-6 PC's on each side of a showdown between Allanak and Red Storm at the crumbling pillar.
341 since 2006, 98% I loved, but only a few stood out in any way.
Tarkas: the sun-bronzed, golden-eyed man- The first ever warrior I played who became somewhat badass, a Bynner who joined Salarr. Death by 30 hidden spiders
Drusim: the giant, burn scarred man- Another Bynner who ended up joining the Arm of the Dragon, trained with the Scorpions a lot, considered Meso a mentor and did a lot of crazy shit with the Lady Templar at the time, whose name I forget but she was called the Butcher. Stored, and I regret it to this day
Drusus: the towering, curly-haired man- my first and only Byn Sergeant, he left the Byn to pursue his brother who had became a sorcerer and promptly died. This was the character I found out Spiders, Beetle and Scrab -will- work together to kill your ass.
Rexus: the burly, scar-ravaged man- A sergeant in the legions, killed by a Rantarri. Had a lot of fun with him, seeing how all those fancy upper-class Tuluki folk acted behind closed doors. The people in the Legion at the time were also a lot of fun, especially this Corporal I had who kept getting into trouble. Once made his whole unit march around the commons naked holding cutlery as weapons because they pissed him off.
Grezian Kadius: the titanic, spike-haired man- Dude didn't live long because I'm a bit of an idiot, but did a lot of stuff with the help of his crew at the time, found out radiation poisoning was a thing with this guy.
Telo: the athletic, amber-eyed man- another former Bynner who left to work with a dwarf named Polain, met a lot of interesting people with him, this is also the guy I was playing when I convinced my now-wife to start playing Arm and now she's better at the game then I've ever been.
Karom: the bestial, yellow-eyed mul- My first ever mul, he struggled with being both so valuable and so hated due to be being pretty mutated.
There are a bunch more, but I think those are my favorites that I can talk about, I may have never added much to the game world but It's all so much fun.

I had a previous account before DesertT.
Account name was Flint.
I forgot the password plus was ashamed of the H&S way I treated the game, so I likely just remade a new account, but as time passed, I really did forget the password to account Flint sooo...
That was back in '95 I think?
ANYWAY...
I'm not finding where I can find my number of characters, but I know that it's waaaay too many!!
Prior to Tariq, my average playtime per character was 2.5 days. Since my return after a 4 year break, I made Tariq (Laborer/Linquist) and racked up something like 76 days played. Since then, my average per character is 30, even now, my current character is 30 days and 18 hours.
Here we go!!
Tymm was a pickpocket and just as things were starting to go good for him (hired on by a noble house) he was killed by a Gith partially due to Way'ing while riding. 9 days 18 hours played.
Cort, a merchant/physician lasted 32 days and 12 hours. Fell in love with a merchant and was assassinated in a locked room of a wagon for it. Lotta good times with Cort. Haggle is AMAZING!! Received a compliment from staff for helping out a new player, but in the same compliment, they mentioned how I spam-cooked bread in an apartment without a fire, setting a bad example. :(
DEACON!! 40 days and 4 hours. Force-stored after breaking into the Tuluki pyramid and ransacking every single apartment. Stole the ring off of a super high-level NPC (sleeping in a chair). Rode back to Nak and turned all my loot into my Borsail noble, stored the next day. Lotta good times starting in the Byn then moving along to Borsail. Burglar / Mercenary.
Mekshit, Assassin/Mercenary. Was in the Byn, made Trooper as a rinther. Lots of fun. SUPER ugly. I think his nickname was Krathshine. The balding, splotch-faced or something like that. Died to an NPC Soldier in Red Storm because someone passed out in front of him and I used the subdue command to move them. Don't use Subdue in Red Storm!! 19 days 22 hours.
Ratshit, Assassin/Linguist. 21 days 6 hours. A few characters after Mekshit, but similar thought process. Joined the Byn. Had some fun. Died to a Gith. :/
Jihae, pickpocket/rebel. Elf. Only 2 days and 20 hours played but this is where I learned that NPC stalkers will enter a building and hunt your ass down!! Stabbed in a bar while afk. I came back JUST in time to die. :(
Spider / Krimel, two separate characters but I gave them both the same nickname of Jade Spider. No-no. Both pickpockets. Both sharps. I was spamming peek, giving stuff to npc's then stealing it back, no bueno. I stole something off a guard in the folley and was instantly stored. Totally my fault. These characters were way too identical and only one character apart. Same nickname. Same location. I hadn't learned my lesson yet (probably still haven't learned it as well as I should have).
Blacktok, warrior/mercenary. 8 days and 16 hours played. Stormer. Don't screw with the alley muls!! Lesson learned.
TARIQ!! My first character back after a 4 year break playing Dark Souls. Laborer/Linguist who wanted to be a Broken Sword in the Byn. Well, I wasn't sure between the Byn and Salarr, but figured I should get Byn training first before joining Salarr. Never did Join Salarr despite a HUGE love interest with a blooded merchant who bore him twins (Kajora)... Made Trooper, Broken Sword, First Trooper, Mercenary, Sergeant, in that order. Ended up leaving the Byn since Andol was hiring people to kill him and just being an all around total ass (IC, not necessarily OOC?). :D While trying to get out of Allanak, was kinda forcibly recruited into Jal as a Swab, then unofficial Foreman, then finally a bastard stored and Tariq was made Foreman. Had SO MUCH FUN in Jal with the Swabs and Sewers!! It was EMBARASSING how many times he fell down the Jal stairs though. NO CLIMB!! I would wear half a dozen pieces of climbing gear... still fall down the stairs. Didn't help that he only had one leg after losing the other to a Salt Worm hunt. NEARLY DIED. -15hp I think!! SOMEHOW the saved him. Fled the worm fight with 37 hp I think, it got in both flee attacks, -15 and OUT!! So many great adventures and encounters with this character. The Byn was awesome while he wasn't a SGT. House Jal was FANTASTIC!! I still don't know why he was assassinated by the Templarate. I should've had him reach out to Lord Borsail but alas... 20/20 hindsight. Who Knows!! I could go on and on... miss you Gourdo and Perfect!! What a Team!! Lots of good times with Gourdo and who was that little female bard that would brawl all the time? GREAT TIMES!! Tariq would call latrine duty early, bring everyone to the mess hall, set out half a dozen shots of whisky and say, "If you win, you drink. If I win, -I- drink." BRAWL!! Once I was in Jal, I requested to have the brawl code added to the lower barracks. YES!! Tariq was the Byn SGT who told a female runner as they were going into the SGT barracks, "Most Sergeants bring runners back here to kank... so just tell everyone it was smaller than you anticipated and over before you knew it." Best ERP Scene!! He and Kajora had an interesting relationship towards the end, then Tariq saw an elf carrying her head. Porlander was trying to walk him back from the Arena to the Noble Quarter when we slipped through that alley and... there was her head again!! Oh Man... Boxed Larimar the mul in Red Storm and smoked him. So much brawling!! Found a new romance in Rela. They would just hang. Had my own room in the Jal estate. A tribal human that bought his Nakki citizenship and ended up being Foreman for a Noble house. He made it. Too much more to cover. FANTASTIC character. Laborer as a Byn SGT (and Jal Foreman) was ROUGH!! Appreciate everyone who played a part of this character's extremely full life!! Hate those that ended it far too soon!! ;)
Aquilis (Gink), 20 days 4 hours, Fighter / Slipknife. Didn't want to follow in Tariq's steps so I joined the Atrium. Nearly picked up by Borsail then the noble stored? Unofficially worked a bit for the OTHER Borsail noble. First graduate of the Atrium after the re-opening though was NOT sponsored at the time. Worked as an associate teacher (or something like that). Ended up joining the Byn. It gets hairy from here but there was some OOC jealousy and coordination to have my character assassinated in Luir's. Reported and two characters were stored. It still hurt because I put so much time and effort into Aquilis and things were absolutely fantastic!!
Bloop, my first half-giant. Played like 20 days. He would "make safe" around Storm and in the alleys. Apparently I forgot my lesson about NOT playing with alley muls. Or at least when you do, don't two-hand your weapon. Have a shield. Oh, and Threaten has a LONG LAG!! Ended up being able to join the Crimson Wind. Bought a skimmer, the Drowned Dujat I think it was? Had a LOT of fun with Damage and Doc (both Crimson Wind characters). Sorry Hanged Man, but I wish we could've played more together. Doc was Bloop's best bud. Playing this character challenged me in ways I hadn't been challenged before. You have to be creative to develop plots as a half-giant (imho). He got to the point where he was one-shotting drov beetles. Never did really RAID anyone if I recall? Doc and Bloop tried a couple times but... we didn't have the heart. Well, Doc didn't and Bloop followed Doc so... Explored the mountains!! Lots of good times!! MAKE SAFE!!
Kaarina (Maidenflower). 20+ days played. An escaped pleasure slave. Artisan / Krathi-guile. Found out she was touched so fled to Storm. Hooked up with the Crimson Wind. The leader told her to get an apartment for her crafts so she did even though she didn't want to. Well, that's where she was assassinated. In her apartment in Storm after turning down a Templar's desire for a dinner date. Hoge was it? With a lisp? Kudos submitted for such a great kill scene even though I obviously wasn't ready for her to die. While an escaped pleasure slave, she wanted nothing to do with sex. Didn't even mention bust or butt size in her mdesc despite Max's accusations of her being an fme. *eyes Max viciously* Struggled with master craft submissions with this character but I learned what the staff was looking for. Still, I wasn't fond of being told No, you're doing it wrong. :D She also had a skimmer. I forget the name already. Lurker's Delight? She wrote a song called, "The Allanaki Idiot" (inspired by Green Day's American Idiot) Again, lots of fun. Still upset at the CW leader for telling her to get an apartment. :P
Katza, scout / house servant. A TRUE Karma 0 character. CW Reaver. Rolecall approved. Wasn't able to raise quite the crew I had hoped for. Likely because she wasn't a mul? Ended up having to store her prior to my mobilization to Africa. She was fun though. Had some interesting talks with other mul/s around Red Storm. Did some silt skimming. Rode out to do some raiding. Ran from the militia. WAY less busy than a Byn Sergeant!!
Current: Having just enough fun not to store, but continue to contemplate it due to some of these AWESOME role calls!! Yes, I'm even looking at Byn SGT...
While reviewing my list of characters, I with there was like a 5-year wait time to re-use some of the SUPER Cool names I came up with but only managed to survive 4 hours to a day and a half. :(
I have had a lot due to explorations gone terrible wrong on 2 days old characters!
1) Kiara - Corporal of His Legions, Had a sorcerer try and buy her baby from her, via sitting on a winged beast upon her balcony! Use to sit upon a HG's shoulder and slide down it's arm to sit at the bar. Died to a Kryl on a patrol.
12) Anumi - Corporal of Winrothol guard, cannot remember how she died.
16) Nessima - Akei Sjir. One of Sinjinn's 'bitches', back in the day.
39) Xis - Odd tribal girl that lived in Tuluk, had someone killed in her apartment, though, the details of it elude me.
57) Rune - Tribal girl, had a split personality. Cannot remember much else.
126) Mezara - Byn Sergeant. Wound up as a penned gladiator as she refused to let her unit get killed by the Crimson Wind during a Nenyuk escort. Nenyuk wouldn't pay the 2 large fee to pass by amon'ma and his crew untouched, instead they called down to them to kill the Byn and escort them to Luirs safely for more. Meza who had a 'agreement' with Amon, shrugged and said they were all theirs, took her unit and rode to Luirs to meet the Fist and return to collect the wagon, who had at that point lost some 250k to Amon. Meza's account was drained and she was penned. She refused to say she belonged to Nenyuk, the two times she appeared in the arena her unit were there, cheering for her. Nobles attempted to buy her out to no avail. In the end she was stored due to the games running later than I played.
127) Ryssa Salarr - Briefly married to Nico Salarr when he was adopted in to the family via the marriage. Had a lot of things going on, but, in the end burnt out and stored.
128) Xerana - More commonly known as Rexxi. Tribal. Had a flurry of very interesting mates and lovers. Was involved in literally everything that was going on in some way or another. Was in the Kadian wagon crash due to it being led off course and over run by gith, only survived this by IG interaction as I was logged off on board when it happened.
129) Merri al'Arabet - Had 6 children with her mate, that was a 'gajah' until he was an accepted outsider into the camp, just so he could be with her and their children. How cuteeeeeee!
132) Takara - Master Crafter with Kurac. Sanderic-da's baby mumma.
135) Kanika - Oashi Aide - Died because she boinked a noble, and the other noble got grr and was trying to kill her. Ran her off all the way to the Grasses where she was cuddled by cilops.
138) Niano - Niano Akkeri. Cannot say too much about her, given that the year mark has only just gone by, and, things are still relevant/people are still alive that knew her. Unblooded Kuraci Dealer, stored to retire with her riches.
Two others that 1 is gone and cannot be spoken about due to year constraints
The other is the current one.
Quote from: askaran on July 20, 2022, 03:16:47 PM
341 since 2006, 98% I loved, but only a few stood out in any way.
Tarkas: the sun-bronzed, golden-eyed man- The first ever warrior I played who became somewhat badass, a Bynner who joined Salarr. Death by 30 hidden spiders
Drusim: the giant, burn scarred man- Another Bynner who ended up joining the Arm of the Dragon, trained with the Scorpions a lot, considered Meso a mentor and did a lot of crazy shit with the Lady Templar at the time, whose name I forget but she was called the Butcher. Stored, and I regret it to this day
Drusus: the towering, curly-haired man- my first and only Byn Sergeant, he left the Byn to pursue his brother who had became a sorcerer and promptly died. This was the character I found out Spiders, Beetle and Scrab -will- work together to kill your ass.
Rexus: the burly, scar-ravaged man- A sergeant in the legions, killed by a Rantarri. Had a lot of fun with him, seeing how all those fancy upper-class Tuluki folk acted behind closed doors. The people in the Legion at the time were also a lot of fun, especially this Corporal I had who kept getting into trouble. Once made his whole unit march around the commons naked holding cutlery as weapons because they pissed him off.
Grezian Kadius: the titanic, spike-haired man- Dude didn't live long because I'm a bit of an idiot, but did a lot of stuff with the help of his crew at the time, found out radiation poisoning was a thing with this guy.
Telo: the athletic, amber-eyed man- another former Bynner who left to work with a dwarf named Polain, met a lot of interesting people with him, this is also the guy I was playing when I convinced my now-wife to start playing Arm and now she's better at the game then I've ever been.
Karom: the bestial, yellow-eyed mul- My first ever mul, he struggled with being both so valuable and so hated due to be being pretty mutated.
There are a bunch more, but I think those are my favorites that I can talk about, I may have never added much to the game world but It's all so much fun.
Thanks for the shout out to one of my all time favorite characters I played.. Polain!
Also Played Sanderic-da Kurac
Xathian- AoD sergeant
Aerieciane Oash.
Those are probably the only characters I ever had that were worth a damn.
Me and my wife both loved and still talk about Polain sometimes, I'll never forget the time Telo saved him from that swarm of Kryl when I had to run afk to chase after our dog.
Mannn
1) Capri - Dead - first char. I think he was a breed that lol thought the world owed him? Idk I didn't read any docs. Probably died in the rinth.
11) Dwyvern - Dead - my only dwarf. killed some kids in the rinth because I didn't know better. Shajak/Shabina gave me some good role-play out of it, and I learned about the rinth instead of being murdered. Worked for the guild for a bit.
12) Rowyn - Dead - joined the Byn. First Trooper Rip became his first friend. Idk if Rip knew it. When Rip died, Rowyn swore vengeance on some rinthi that Rip didn't like. Rowyn used to patrol the rinth and kill people hunting elves, made friends with the Association, and did a bit. The Two Moons came into play and he gradually started hanging out with them. It was a trip into the rinth that got him killed eventually before he could fully join as Easy Trade.
24) Torin - Dead - Eventually became Sajahain of the Sun Runners. Found an old sorcerous mask and wore it until he died. Killed a Two Moon in Yaroch at the Ocotillo festival after saying "I will kill you if you don't stop saying fuck the Sun Runners," to which the Two Moon said fuck the Sun Runners. Culminated in the Two Moon owing the SR tribute for a long time. Died in Luir's after I pick pocketed someone in front of 8 guards because it was his habit to steal non-valuables for keepsakes. I think he was stealing a 4 Sid gem after giving someone directions lol.
25) Tokmeat - Stored - redshirt half breed with horns that got to fight for the Ash Lord against Allanak. Good times. Had to store him after.
26) Skull - Dead - my only half giant. He was raised by raiders and would demand things from people at Luir's. People would tell him that's rude and then give things to him, so he never learned. Died to a carru because my dog was distracting me, while someone in the Garrison was trying to beep me to save me.
33) Pah - Dead - my Tan Muarki. I had a blast with him embodying the 'be secretive spies and don't tell people who we are' aspect of Tan Muarki docs. Pah was a Kuraci, Garrison, a Songbird, in the Byn at one point, and... I think something else. I don't remember how he died but I think I was tired of him at that point because everyone knew the Tan Muarki by sight at that point and being undercover was impossible. I know I had a lot of RL stuff going on, too.
37) Vierbryn - Dead - black footed Drovian d-elf. had an absolute blast with him. had a mentor with the same element and path, which was amazing role-play, Ijji. died after successfully hunting two wezer that were out and about, skinning them, and getting their glands. died in a hole literally right after on the way back home. I played a Sun Runner next and they were bringing in his body because one of them found it, which was hilarious.
40) Drego - Stored - my only templar. templars aren't for me.
41) Calril - Dead - c-elf that ran with Hekta and his crew. Staff did a great job tying in his death with the current plot. He was half-Sandas at a bad time to be a Sandas, and Hekta murdered him.
42) Michiliito - Stored - Vezeto of the Valuren. Nobody ever actually found out his name, everyone just called him Blackhands. By the time I stored he was a pretty crazy fighter, having learned on his own, and also been training with c-elves that had been around FOREVER. There's still at least one person alive who interacted with him so I won't go into much. I would unstore him in a minute, I just got stir-crazy being in the rinth with so much going on.
43) Wanderer - Dead - mutated mul stalker. very emo. joined the Garrison. He ended up making friends with the Second and they died because he followed orders without question when out on mission and misunderstood an order. Tried to die saving his Second but she died trying to save him, so the last thing he knew was that he failed at saving her. Sad.
-- year mark
Short list.. Been playing since 2016 though!
1) Robe'Ann/Ember - Stored <-- First character, 63 days played in the Byn and eventually the Salarr. Last hunter in the Salarr before the Garrison was created, stored due to college obligations. Had some funny mis-targets due to the name.
2) Erase - Stored
3) Talie - Stored
3x that are too recent.
I liked Robe/Ember. We had a solid crew and I did end up hating the fact the hunting branches were shut down - pof Radgek. I miss Nico. All my mounts over the IG years were named after him.

3) Talie - Stored
<3
We had the slowest pit fight ever in the Den of Wonders.
I don't like to talk about my PCs 'cos I think they all suck.
98) Current - Alive
4) Bartimaeus - Dead - Stole LT coppers tube of spice during the days of the HG Albie. Ended up getting knocked tf out, was a great scene.
13) Hascal - Dead - Fun Byn dwarf during the days of sergeant Niel and Murdle
45) Broker - Dead - Aka Beckett, Beck AoD Ranger. Ended up dying after murdering a templars aide for clout. Was hired on after saying "I'm the guy that will make sure you're alive in the sands." Beck was a man that kept his word. He was a medic to the team, he saved a templars life and actually got to kank a templars concubine as a reward. He was bound to be sergeant (from private) because of some incompetency in the unit, all he had to do was kill that aide.
47) Caddoc - Dead - AKA KRULL. A long-lived Kuraci Regular. Was an asshole to those that didn't know him, he was very layered. He's been demoted 2 or 3 times as well during the era of sergeant Ruke and the last of the real regulars
94) Sasi - Dead - Aka, TWIG. Child rinthi elf (he started at 13 in human years) Kuraci Spy/assassin. Was so good at his job, he actually had a ROOM in the Kuraci mansion all for himself. Managed to take down a whiran that was terrorizing the world with a stroke of luck. Built a close knit crew underneath Visindri-Di that was basically winning armageddon for a while. He was hated by the dust runners and a city elven gang named Painted for the way he acted which, comes as no surprise because he was a child breathing down their necks. I could write a short story on Twig. Died lone-footing his way to Luirs to kank his childhood crush. (he was older at that point). I actually was phone mudding and typo'd, causing death - Yes, I actually phone mudded because my PC broke for the MAJORITY of twigs life.
105) Merek - Dead - Oashi Aide that was killed for kanking a nobles concubine, oops

Quote from: Inks on July 23, 2022, 11:16:25 AM
Keveen
Anyone that interacted with this pc in passing likely thought it was a troll or a meme character, including myself. However, the longer you interacted with this pc the more amazing and fleshed out this concept was and I personally could not get enough. Highly enjoyable both icly and oocly, I played alongside Keveen until his end and adored every second. One of your best I think.
I've got a great log involving keveen daring some trees to be spears and a certain kid in morins adopting our particular style of wearing animals.
Thanks so much for the positive feedback my dudes! Inks gives a thumbs-up with a sense of purpose and destiny. 8)
Hoge was interesting. Keveen though...? I think it's PROBABLY better that it wasn't staff, but at the same time it makes me disappointed that no one decided to punt it into space and give a good and nice week ban or something - stupid OOCness in IC over and over isn't funny, just dumb.
Older players shouldn't get a free pass and be treated the same way as anyone else.
Firstly I said memorable PC and you clearly remember him. I assure you. Keveen (the flabby, neckbeared man) was not some pet of staff. It was at a time I was kind of jaded by (what I percieved as) unfair staff treatment and rude interactions on a previous PC when I made him and was ready to leave the game.
So yes he started as a meme pc in the concept stage(the "I studied the blade" meme) but I played him within the gameworld and stayed in character always. I am grateful for the players who enjoyed our interactions, I always try to put a lot of effort RPing my characters to the hilt.
The issues I had with staff all those years ago no longer exist and I am glad I have never been banned from a hobby I enjoy. Judge not lest ye be judged yourself.
So, this is a thread asking how many characters you've had. It's mostly been a neat discussion. But criticizing one segment of players or putting people on the defensive here is not kosher. Please let's not go down that road.
Thanks.

I know this one, and I know roughly what happened, seemed very poetic for Tuluk's opening...
This thread is good too: Whatever happened to...? (https://gdb.armageddon.org/index.php/topic,51481.0.html)
I thought it was higher than 216.

I've had 26 since starting ACTUALLY starting playing in 2019, and one that I made in 2017 but played less than a week before going two years. Of those 26(27) very few are memorable to me, I have this habit of having a somewhat long-lived character then a few that die super quick, or that I end up storing because I tried hopping back in too quickly after losing a long lived character..
Maru was my first! She was a merchant? The only character I got to make from those classes before the class change! She liked making jewelry mostly, Polain and Telo are who helped me really get into the game, then after their deaths she worked for Khataleia (and Nails!) which made me OOC terrified because Templars were scary (still are but that's besides the point!) I ended up storing because I was super nervous all the time and I super regret it and probably always will.
Next was Mila! Milatzi the songbird, I really bullshitted my way through with that one, I don't know how she did it, but I really really loved playing her and I definitely cried when she got killed, it was my first time dying to another PC, and I just kind of froze up for a good 10-15 seconds like uhh, what what do I do?! ;D Really enjoyed playing with so many people, Mags, TomTom, Suma, Tariq, ugh there was this tribal couple too but I can't for the life of me remember their names.. Anyway, props to you all, loved that time in Kurac so much!
Next was Pip! Pipperi, I actually wanted her to work for Kadius, but through fun IC circumstances out of her control, Pip ended up at the atrium and eventually aide for Lord Antonious Borsail, that was an interesting play through, so much fun and I enjoyed so many people there too! Ing, I loved to hate Ing but also learned so much about the game from playing with Ing, so thank you for that. I always felt bad cause I couldn't stay up often to play during peak, felt like I always missed out on a lot of stuff because of it.
Alara - probably my favorite character played to date. So much bad shit happened to Alara, but it made for such an interesting time. From her time in the Arm as a terrible soldier, to helping defend Yaroch during the festival despite no longer being a soldier, and almost dying then- to getting her hand cut off later by the crimson wind- that was a fun time! I ended up taking a surprise break for a month or so after that, but came back and worked for the Den, just doing laborious shit. Grebbing was her thing, getting gems for anyone who needed it. Died on her way back from looking for fucking jade by herself, go figure. She was a laborer - linguist. Mundane shit can be fun too. ;)
Uhh, Khianeh and Aviyatri were some bynners I played for a short while. Oh and Bristi my kuraci crafter when shit was going down. That's it for possible memorable characters that have been gone for over a year.
I can't believe it's been almost two years since I made Alara! I saw that and was like dang :'(

Tried to buy a two-room tent from some eastside elves and the westside thought he was a spy. Nope! Just trying to navigate alleyway politics.
80) Ruffle - Stored - (Aug 31, 2017) Kuraci Blood. Played for 4 hours. I got immediately lost and had no direction and didn't know what to do, and just stopped logging in. (I think it had to do with not knowing anything of the previous Kuraci characters and what they were attempting to do, and not knowing what my immediate direction was) After a month of not logging in, I was asked if I wanted to continue or store, and I chose store.
81) Marst - Dead - (Nov 3, 2017) Labyrinth half-elf who wanted to be like other elves around him. Was an assassin / travel whiran. Joined the Dust Runners and mostly played solo.

(Died Jan 23, 2021)

86) *** - Alive
I've been debating adding my own to this. I tend keep to myself, but this one time, I'll share:
In my 20+ years here, I've had a total of 20-something PCs. Low 20's, even. I tend to play it safe, play it obsessively and then burnout for 1-2 years. Here's a handful of some of my favorites:
3) Calla - If I were to rank favorites, this one is my (hands-down) #1 of all time on any MUD. Back when PC slaves were actually allowed. She started out meant to be a feral-like girl toy to a fellow mudder. He died on Day 1, coming to get her from Storm. Instead of storing, I got to Nak, somehow?? Bit and growled at a few people at the Gaj, crouched and slavered in the corner, shoved greasy handouts in her beltpouches to eat later until finally, a Templar strolled in and slapped a collar on her. HUGE RPT killed him off, and she ended up a slave to Pearl at the Atrium. You know. Back when it was just becoming a minor merchant house. Long story short, because I could go on and on, she stopped biting people, cleaned up, was freed, became Captain of the Atrium guard, and lover to Pearl's son who had taken over the business when Mum died. Stored when he did. Not coincidentally, it was during this character who started out biting everyone that I made this GDB account. ;D
14) Edahla, aka Dahl - A little girlish woman who loved shiny rocks and made friends with everyone - elves, gicks, mutants. Clearly had some mental development problems. Someone asked after her on the "What Happened to..?" thread. After her elf "guardian" Smokes vanished, she was looked after by some other folks. Pretty sure that connection resulted in her apartment never getting robbed. Not ever. (That I'd noticed.) Ended up taking a taboo lover who proved to be the end of her. Whenever I think of that last night, I still reel over it. Never saw it coming. Sigh.
20) Taga, aka "Niblet" - Little horned mutant in the Byn with a lust for life, poor strength, and a constant disappointment that she didn't have boobs. I made this one mostly for funnies, but ended up having a great story to go along with her. She was a fun little liar storyteller, and for some reason, had Byn men falling over each other for her attention. Wut? Lasted 3 months before she died pointlessly. For LOVE. No regrets.
38 since 2021 :D
That said, I tend to play a lot of explorers/combat characters and did a lot of exploration and playing around in my first year of play.
"Who was that little female bard that would brawl all the time?"
That was Tomija- "TomTom".

Such a tragic ending.. Getting whipped to unconsciousness only to watch the emotes helplessly was rough. I loved the character! :D
I've had 34 characters. I've always been an inconsistent bit player so there's nothing impressive, but here's a sample of the ones I have strong memories of that I think other people might remember:
3. Phala - 2008 - Dwarf burglar who joined the Tor Scorpions (i was such a noob), stored after the very active leader died and b/c I had now idea where to take the character.
5. Amos - 2009 - Bynner who fled Allanak after pissing off a noble, fell off the Shield Wall, miraculously found water, and made it to Luir's with the help of some desert elves, where he took an assumed name and joined Kurac. Stored.
10. Tzajel - 2010 - Dwarf assassin who spent a year in the Byn, and later died by miskeying and accidentally backstabbing someone's mount.
15. Demdekre - 2010 - Old man from Red Storm. Died to a beetle.
16. Wedna - 2010 to 2011 - Tuluki who had a career in the Byn and briefly served as Sergeant before I had to step back because of playtime constraints. Eventually stored. She was a human-passing half-elf.
22. Yatha - 2012 to 2013 - Dwarven pickpocket, this was a family rolecall and her brothers all died while I had a period of hiatus. Became a shadow artist employed as a Tenneshi "cook" before eventual storage.
25. Dalt - 2013 - Filthy rinthi gemmer, got himself executed after literally shitting on people with status.
27. Lettle - 2015 to 2016 - Human rinthi pickpocket. Never really amounted to anything but had fun being her. Stored because of play time issues.
32. Eirios AKA "Arrows" - 2018 - Whira-touched elven rinthi pickpocket. Amazingly fun but short-lived guy who made a bunch of enemies. Died when he exposed himself despite knowing there was a price on his head and he was being actively hunted in order to elf-test a friend.
34. Otelia - 2021 - Joined the Legion and had so much fun directly participating in the re-opening of Tuluk, and was very sad when I realized I just no longer had time to play and needed to store.
I haven't had time to play since storing Otelia due to work and other major things happening in my life, but fond memories :)
I was so happy when Flow finally built her gambling den. I think Mansa's been trying to build one for ten+ years.
10) Runner/Recruit/Private/Praetorian/Private/Corporal Zeph (Nov 2019 to Aug 2021, 90 days 16 hours played)
The character I'm most proud of, created with the hidden goal of living as long as possible. Militia Corporal who would take bribes from anyone, but it wouldn't matter, because he looked the other way in any case. As lazy as it can get, but a good soldier occasionally. Outlived five Militia Sergeants. Cheers!
Hey Zeph my man, I played Hoge, and it was no secret to him. I even made a couple of songs about Zeph's avoidance of conflict and ability to look the other way, remember? And performed them for you! How'd you die? :-*
Big Kudos m8.

Thanks! Hoge was awesome, and the songs were great. Zeph was about to be banished from the city for being too lazy and skipping the war effort, OOCd for alternatives since it would have resulted in storage, so got execution instead. So in some strange way, a fitting end.
In my first year of play over 50 PCs... After that learning curve most PCs lasted a RL year if I passed that 7days played mark with them.
Big thank you goes to the staff and the time they put into keeping up with my turn over rate of PCs. Thank you!!

Quote from: Tuannon on June 03, 2018, 11:39:13 AM
Maybe 12 since 1999... Let me log on and check.
1. Kyr - Stored - Borsail recruit who made it to Sergeant, lived about 60 days played as an assassin in an at the time full unit of Amber Wyverns. Stored over something I said OOC to a player.
2. Drokh - Died to a Raptor - Indy ranger around Tuluk, really boring to play and kind of why I never play 'full' rangers any more.
3. Tembrik - Died to a Well - Rinther dwarf, gave me a reason to not like the rinth. But to be fair, dwarves are kinda out of place there in the raw political sense.
4. Emokir - Died to a Whiran (?) - Semi Tuluki Ranger who made his living as a courier. Notable waylaid by a rukkian for a frypan and delivered some troll letters for Ceylara Borsail to Tuluk.
5. Coaxoch - Stored - Tribal warrior who walked to Allanak from Tuluk over the course of a while, joined Kadius out of desperation, ended up running the southern crew.
6. Buhz - Force Stored (93) - Last long lived human slave PC before they lowered the boom on that stuff. Served Ceylara Borsail, most notably saved her from a Roc (thanks Veddi). Long lived, boring personality due to heavy Borsail indoctrination.
7. Greffokh - Stored - Tuluki Legionaire, did a bunch of stuff for a few Jihaens, defied orders to save some little kid templar from a kryl, stored over in clan politics I didn't care for.
8. Otiartes - Templared - Spider disaster survivor, used to slack off in the tavern. Ended up being accused of being a mindworm and executed by his Corporal. Wasn't a mindworm.
9. Khax - Stored - Had a cooler full name (Ilu'Khax) but hell if I remember it, loyal servant of Raleris Winrothol who used to hunt with Fanny a lot for training (and spying) purposes. Used to train with city elves a lot to keep an eye on them and help them out, not as smart as people thought he was.
10. Rihat - Dasari-ed - Some fuckwit stableboy who hired on with Salarr and ended up running the show (from the practical side). Sold out by someone, the usual politics. Also appreciated the gloating DM from a player claiming to have orchestrated this event.
I have three after Rihat but I'm not really keen on talking about them. I didn't enjoy them really also the year thing.
11. Thonapa - Stored - Made a character intended on being a medic in the Legion or a Partisan support character. Tuluk closed and I didn't feel like setting up shop with the Crimson Wind after riding (without direction sense) across the world.
12. Dimerita - Dead - Started as a Bynner, ended up being hired by Beikon Oash as an adjunct and almost made Advisor. Was extremely paranoid so didn't do the seggs, was eventually killed for it (and probably other reasons) in the Elite barracks meeting room by a krathi.
13. Masiri - Stored - Al'Seik hunter I made after a discussion with an ex-staffer about tribal lore, was kind of fun but really joined the Seik at a downswing in good fit opportunities. I ended up storing because I wasn't enjoying being stuck in camp for months on end due to elves, rampaging gith or there being nothing to eat that could be hunted. The solution here would have been take wilderness forage.
14. STILL ALIVE
So yeah, all mundane humans aside from Tembrik. And really more role players than magnificent world changers as is my wont.
!!! - Unchanged
I'm on 95 right now
Since the early 90's and across 6 different accounts, I think around 600 characters.
With Karma around, a total of 2, never got the chance to prove myself, so after close to 75 rejections for sponsored roles, I stopped giving a shit and started Yolo'ing. Though I have had stints where I was carrying everything since noone was playing the game, but hey, sour grapes right.
