Things are finally settling.  I'll be playing catch up with this game over the next week including completing all character build level ups I have.  If you haven't done it yet please do it.

Chloe I will deal with yours and let you know when it is up.

Thanks all for your patience and still being here.  I look forward to seeing the chapters we are about to write.

Apologies for not checking in sooner. Been taking extra time to sort myself out. Have not forgotten you all.

So sorry for my long absence I had sever carpal tunnel syndrome  my fingers had not feeling in them and I could not use them sometimes.  Doctor had ne lay of computer, until I had surgery and had rerecorded feeling.  Well, he cleared me to use Computer, though it may take 2 more months until I know how much feeling and control I will regain.  One thing I am free of is The burning pain That was hindering everything including sleep.

Shorter version - Quick update: I was misdiagnosed with cancer and for a series of rather dangerous surgeries to deal with it.  I've been focused on getting a second opinion before agreeing to something that I was sure was not needed.

The game is still on hold as my new specialist still needs to address some medical issues and I have another procedure in a few weeks that may result in my hospitalization so I am posting quick updates and putting my games on hold until I know fully where things stand.

It does not feel like it has been two months since I was last here.  However, I have some great news pending one last exam and its results.  Everything has come back after getting a third opinion for a tie breaker that I was clearly misdiagnosed and while I do have a few things that need to be monitored, I am in better position than I was originally lead to believe by my former specialist.

While we still have to clear the last one mentioned, it should be all behind me by the beginning of next month.

Also taking an extensive break from gaming seems to have done wonders to rejuvenate me in that area as well.  The joy and interest is back across the board so to speak though this was never one of the games that caused such a backlash it did suffer for it.

So I would like to get a call out to see who is still here and with the plan to put a summary up of where things stand around the end of the month to give everyone a chance to weigh in and see if we are all ready to continue.  Then as I am presuming that I still have my most faithful here in this game we will go active at the beginning of August and move on through to the conclusion.

Thank again for your time, patience and support.

Still around, although its summer season so doing some travelling.

Sounds like great news on the health front. Glad to hear it.

No worries on the traveling. A slow pace for a bit is also welcome as I am sure others are vacationing and also need to become aware of my return.  ;-)

Going to move ahead on the weekend with both stories.  I know Taren will need to be NPC'd as his player is still dealing with some life issues.

For those that are still here please sound off.

Posts are finally up after a fact.

To be blunt, I've been struggling for some time with being creative and while I have immensely enjoyed this campaign and it has been even with my delays one of the most successful I have been in and possibly one of the most successful Wheel of Time games on Rpol.

Rather than possibly have this go on for months longer, I am going to write up the Final Battle in more of a story-mode with points where characters will still be able to act and that will shape the outcome as I would like to give everyone an ending in Prophecies that it deserves for the Epic it has been.

As for the Blight game that will continue though that depends on if we still have our players after my absence.

Eleven years and just over seven months ago this campaign started under another GM.  Not too long into the game, that GM decided they were not able to continue.  Marissa stepped up originally and then I don't recall why I joined her as co-GM.

We've traded the spot a few times over the years until I settled in with this story to help craft with the players of Asurii, Raiel, Taren and Marissa.  Asurii will forever be remembered and honored as a participant and I hope the ending provided did her justice.

I thank you all for your patience with my health and other struggles that caused absences and staying with the campaign to its end.  I hope each of you enjoyed your part in this tale and what we crafted together.

It has been a pleasure through the years seeing the character growth and the depth of each character in turn.

To each and everyone of you for making this campaign a success and bringing it to a conclusion, a very rare thing in RPoL!

A thoroughly enjoyable tale and I too hope the twins found it a good ending. Wow, almost 12 years of story. That's a feat.

Thank you as well for being a GM as well Marissa.

Thank you all for your efforts, for without it this game never would have succeeded.

Blight will continue of course.  ;-)

Merry Christmas all and Happy Holidays.

May you be safe in your travels.

I'll see if I cannot be more active in 2015 but I may consider seeing if someone else including Marissa wants to step up for the second game after I get the last updates out.

Happy New Year, all!

Happy New Year Everyone!  May you have a safe and enjoyable celebration for bringing in 2015.

So the question at hand is Who is still here and wants to continue with the Blight Game?

Still here and will continue if game does. :)

Would you be willing to spell me as GM presuming at least Chloe is still interested?

Yeah, just let me know what direction you were headed. :)

Doesn't look like anyone else has chimed in though.

I'll continue for now.

Though Chloe may be waiting on me for her character level up which I have been very bad about getting done.

I need to rebuild those notes as they were on the old system before the major meltdown.

We'll see if that perks up participation.

Been debating running another storyline. Wondering if its better to continue with Marissa, Addaru, et al, or new character at lower levels.

Like the old characters but storyline might be harder at their levels.

I have been away I am sorry.  Dialysis has been kicking my but.  I am literally drained,  Come home sleep eat and do minimum necessary,  However things have improved and I am feeling muck better now so Hope to continue

Was that pun intended? :)

Seriously though, glad to hear it is getting better.

Literally I am drain f energy as well as toxins and excess fluids.  Even though my dialysis is early in the morning I usually need to go home and nap for 4-5 hours to get my energy level up.
