I'm quite confident that plenty of others followed in a blur of forgotten battles and hard-learned lessons. It was probably at least a year before I rolled up my first truly surviving character, who in failing to die like all the others finally earned a reasonably clear, permanent place in my memory.</p></blockquote><p></p>
