[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 187295, member: 2020"] [b]OOC: About Us[/b] In the darkest hour of the IR, Kaboom created a thread called Who Are You IRL? I have copied this thread and pasted it here. I thought it appropriate, and that it would help Mr. Draco with his effort. - - - Understand something, my friends. I did not end the IR, and say: Whew, what a relief that's over! I am, instead, depressed. I am suffering from IR letdown. I had to close the book. I did not feel it was a good idea to continue the IR under the Doctrine of Endless Struggle, which TSR created. I felt that the IR would rot, if I did that. Rot, decay, losing player after player, until only a few remained, playing in a game gone utterly stagnant. There had to be an Ending. In my opinion, at least, all well written books have an Ending. So, I brought the IR to an Ending. It hurt to do so, but I did it because it had to be that way. I hope it was an Ending that left most of you - apparently so, based on your responses - feeling satisfied that the story was properly concluded, and no artificial contrivances were involved (you all almost did die, by the way - I wasn't joking about that when I posted my message to Melkor.) I wanted an Ending that was climatic, heroic, and grand, something that would be remembered. I couldn't do it myself - you made that ending possible with your dramatic roleplaying on the last day, yesterday. The unfortunate thing is that, the better the book, the greater the pain after you read the last page. At least, that is my experience. The horrible thing is, if there is no pain after closing the book, the book was probably a failure - at least for me it was. So I guess the IR was a success for me, for I feel lousy, and I regret badly having to end it, and close the book. Melkor, I am sorry your side did not have a better ending. Please remember you almost won. You came within an inch of killing them all. Even I did not know what the final outcome would be, until this morning. Melkor, you put a really heroic effort into your playing, your roleplaying, and into the spirit of everything you did. I salute you, Melkor. Cheers! - - - Here then, is the thread I copied, which was created by Kaboom, and which you can still find on page five of the In Character Forum: EN World - d20 News & Reviews > D&D/d20 System Forums > Bits N Pieces > In Character > (IR)Who are you IRL? Last Thread Next Thread Author Thread kaboom Member Registered: Jan 2002 Location: Posts: 333 (IR)Who are you IRL? During the long and recently aborted IR, I have been wondering what you are all like IRL. I will start. I am an 11-year-old home-schooled boy who goes by the name of Ben Levin. I have a 7-year-old sister who can sometimes be great and sometimes be a horrid brat. My family has no pets, we had a dog but he had a bad case of separation anxiety and we had to take him back to the pound. We live in a big house out in nature with hiking out the bake door.

I am a traveller, and content to wander for the momment. I'm currently attached, and have been for the last two years. My love of books and computers is evident to all who know me, and I have that uniting interest in D&D and fantasy that many of us share.

I got a little brother of 15 who's gonna turn 16 in May and 2 loving parents who are still happily maried (seems like a miracle these days). I spent the last 2 years as a professional gamer of the game Starcraft while coping with school (which went well, don't ask me how) and playing to much other computer games and since about a year D&D 3rd ed. I would love to have a loving and caring GF but all girls do is get to close to me and we get to well friends and they don't want to risk that **sigh** It's happening to me as I'm typing this so I'm kicking myself in the head and I feel like crying and I really don't know what the heck I should do about it Traumatised by women at 18, I suck So back to some bloody computer game and kick some newby ass there, try and make myself feel good Silently hoping this IR will be back on track soon... man I miss it.. big time.

I an 26 and am a construction worker doing estimating/Project Management. I live in just outside of Charlotte, NC – USA, like y’all could not tell by my hick accent . Alignment would have to be CG – nice guy but mess with me or mine and I’ll kick your ass Also where did everyone get their character name? I got mine from an old homebrew character I played. He was a weaponsmaster that was able to get a magical sword that had the souls of 5 vampire lords in it. Over time he slowly turned into a Vampire Lord who had the abalities of all the other vampires in the Sword, and could manifest them at will, slong with summoning them at will. A really cool character, but nothing like the one played here. __________________ Alzem, Chief Solar of St. Cuthbert Samantha, Head chair of Hope Isle governing body.

Made it to 21st level (25 effective) before we finished the campaign. It was cool. So Festy probably saw my betrayal of evil coming since all my characters are Chaotic Good and Kalanyr was very righteous about it. I'm Chaotic Good I'd say but due to a strong desire not to be arrested I come off Neutral Good most of the time. __________________ YB Master Judge Last edited by Kalanyr on 04-03-2002 at 10:18 AM Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 04-03-2002 09:04 AM The Forsaken One Member Registered: Jan 2002 Location: Netherlands Posts: 471 Vaeregoth I made up because it just sounds nice to me (Pronounced in dutch:P) And Forsaken just cause I am to many times in my life __________________ Some are born to live, others born to die.

I actually got it out of the "Names of the Underdark" article in Dragon magazine. Technically it should be ALabstercorian, where Al means dead, Abster means memory, and Corian means Master or Liason. Alabstercorian, Liason of Dead Memory. But Anabstercorian sounds better. __________________ "No! Bad Illithid! No genocide! Bad! Bad! Put down the nuclear fire or no cookie!"

Real name is Rom van Arendonk, I'm a computer freak (and coincidentally, my sign in Dutch is Ram...sometimes you wonder whether everything is already determined ) I have a younger sister (15), who is quite annoying (though Forsaken one may disagree ) and an older sister (30). Hobbies include Surfing, chatting, (C)RPG's, other computer games, playing tennis. My character name is the same as my user name: Ho_Skoteinos. It mean The Dark One (it's ancient greek). Also, it was the nickname of a philosopher with a rather pessimistic view on life, just like me: Herakleitos. Alignment would be NE...sadly... Picture: I'm the guy with glasses in blue.

I live just a few miles south of Green Bay, Wisconsin, in a little city called DePere. I've gamed since I was 5 or so, focusing on DnD and Final Fantasy. I'm also interested in writing, genetics, programming, and psychology. Recently, I also got into StarCraft. I'm known on BattleNet as "Phantom Fox", although I don't go on too often. My char's name - Kessel GnomeWorks - is derived from my screenname (name of a gaming company I was going to start up), and the first name just came out of the blue. As for the NPCs - most of them I made up. I've got an interest in Japanese, so one of the names was Japanese in nature. A few of their names are taken from writers (Poe), and a few are friends/relatives of mine. __________________ Writer for Silicon Phoenix Gaming ----- The Psionicle DM Click here for Part V of the Psionicle Follow the Story - III, IV Click here for an OOC discussion on The Psionicle Click here to view the characters involved in The Psionicle ----- Of Sound Mind Player Seraphina Tealeaf, Female Halfling Rogue1/Illusionist1 Cat Familiar, "Lucie" and Riding Dog, "Rufus" ----- Academy of Drell Player Charlotte Kalaharven, Female Human Aristocrat1/Psion3 (Shaper) Psicrystal, "Doyle" Follow the story - I, T1, II, III ----- 3rd IR Participant Kessel GnomeWorks, Lortmils Technomancy Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 04-03-2002 11:05 AM 'o Skoteinos Member Registered: Jan 2002 Location: Best, Noord Brabant, The Netherlands Posts: 173 Gnomeworks: Yesterday I saw a transport truck from the company: "van Kessel" __________________ 'o Skoteinos.
