For those who might be interested.
I am done playing mortimer. I found a while back I was not enjoying playing him much anymore. Some characters are very much a product of their setting and the people they interact with. Mortimer Underhill was one of those. In many ways he was my favorite character I have ever played. He had complexity and subtlety and was entertaining at the same time. He also was very different from what people would expect and that is always a strange and fun place to play in. The ultimate death flunky had is his run and did mighty deeds. Sadly as the people I played with stopped playing I started to not have fun anymore. The stories he was part of twisted, turned, and went away. The world he was created to fit into no longer exists.
To make matters worse I NEVER never liked the system of nero. I never liked the fact that the game world was so indistinct. I never enjoyed levels and hit points. I never liked money for xp and cookie cutter ritual systems. I played through these things cause I enjoyed the character and the story that tyrangel had when I started. I tried playing in different chapters. He did not fit in. He was a heroic character with a world around him filled with shady and down right evil heroes. he just did not belong and he knew and I think everyone around him knew it as well. I will always enjoy the memories I have of the character and the cool stories he was in. I have found and happy memories of all the people I met and played with as him and they are still my friends. But rather than leave that lingering I am simply going to say I am done. I may play he one more time to retire but thats it. I am sad about it but better to end it than leave it as some lingering thing.
oh well
And Marentha.

Maybe I can get in on that 'one more time' event, too. In some fashion.
