D&D General Characters With Unfinished Business

[Dragonhelm]

In another thread, I questioned whether or not to leave my friend's Spelljammer game. I decided to do the smart thing and leave. While I don't regret that decision, I am a bit sad because I loved my character and he will not see the story to fruition.

The story revolved around assembling the Rod of Seven Parts and defeating Vecna. This is a homebrew story that has nothing to do with Vecna: Eve of Ruin.

So my beloved character has seen five pieces gathered, with two to go. And now I won't see the end.

It occurs to me that this situation is common enough. So I'm wondering, how do you all handle having a character with an unfinished story?

Most of us will die with unfinished buisness.

Its just how the world works.

But i have a few charachter over the last 40+ years that stick with me. I dont do anything special just remience every now and then.
