[QUOTE="Zelda Themelin, post: 5820300, member: 167"] I used to play character long time. Many games at same time. Some didn't last very long, but my first D&D basic character I played 5 years. Then my group changed. I played one character 9 years. Very unusual game, started as warhammer game. Played other characters at same time. Some of them lasted half year or so. Then my group changed again. Played my first character 5 years. Then next 3 years, next one 1,5 years, then 9 monts. This was because we didn't have time to play so much. Long times since last session sometimes. Forget too much things. So more need to play another character. Nowdays they last from half year to year, but some other characters I play and swich. Just now we started to play characters that are little like Eternal Champion. Reincarnates into new world bit changed personality, not all memories, changed character class, levels etc, but link to old stories. Mmmh maybe cross between doctor who reincarnation and champion eternal from Moorcock books. But with less time travel and chaos and not always tragic things. Ok, it's pretty tragic but not depressive storyline. There is basicly this eternal quest for character who wants to understand chance in cosmic level. Others have their own things. Reincarnation methods varies, recent one was psionic mind seed. Yes, even soul changes. Maybe that will last longer, you kinda can re-invent your charcters now and then. Universes come and go too, and game systems. My 9-year lasting character became something like this, though I might try it again. Who knows, maybe it lasts till end of my current group. [/QUOTE]
