Kudos form Starlock

[Atlantahammy]

I've been on this server for about... not even 2 years, I joined in the 20's of October 2017, and while it's been fun it has eventually brought me some woe in the recent year that has... exasperated, some of my untreated mental issues, due to how attitudes and things are... and while this is not goodbye, I do need to pull away from Arelith, due to the dread of not wanting to deal with whatever horrible thing may of happened this day... But This is not what this is about.

First off, I will not be rolling Astra.
Secondly, I will likely pop in from time to time.
Thirdly, i've passed the language lectures off to Angela and Jacob.
Fourthly I'll be ensuring Astra gets all the books passed to her archive before I withdraw fully.
Fifth, Those i'm doing comission for, don't worry, i'll be getting those done as normal and posting, i may not be IG but i'll be around the forums.

Now then, onto the Kudos:

Snow Emil:
Played by my roommate, Theopticalmouse, who brought me into this game, and while Astra and Snow didn't exactly.. "get along" or stayed side by side, they did indeed have a friendship, that even if they disagreed, they got along.

Jadoth Dawnfire:
Astra's current boyfriend, yes yes, shippers rejoice, it's canon, worst secret relationship ever, i know... He was one of those people Astra naturally gravitated to when she arrived on the island, and determined that, she wanted to befriend despite what she heard, and their relationship grew organically from there.

Without him, I'm unsure where Astra would of gone, I may of stopped playing sooner, but Jadoth was there that made life just a little bit better for Astra, even if no one else got to see it.

Seel'melaa Starlock:
Where to even begin with Seel's impact on Astra.. He was.. definitely someone that shaped her, both good and bad, and it would be a crime to not mention him, considering how much he played a role in her life, with having been her husband, and father to her children.

Angela Amana, Jacob Swift, Patrick O'Sulivan, Veritas, Corbin, Thulk, & Ivy Pebbletoe:
The first four being Astra's mentors, who she grew under at the tower, and while she butted heads with them from time to time, she always respected them, In all respects, it must of been odd to have a new player like me come in and grow as quick as Astra did into becoming an Archmage... She still wonders to this day what Veritas thinks of how far she's come, and when he'll stay put, she still need to punch him for running off again!

Patrick also doubled as a zany friend who she knew could make any day better for both me and the character.

Thulk was the head warden that, while she respected, also dissgareeded a lot with, specially in regards to Jadoth, but was grateful for his service al the same and still is to this day.

Ivy came in a lot later then the others, and was in fact, while a student of Patrick's she was also kinda one of astra's as well as a very good friend to her... Ivy is very much what Astra wanted to see of students, being curious, kind, going outside their zones to understand and learn, and to help others with such, even if Astra herself was a bit bitter.

Lissa Whitehorn / Kerri (Xereh):
Another one of Astra's teachers! see Astra came in at year 133 AR, where the spriggin plot was starting to end, there was an event where the tower had these abyssal moles in them, and that's what actually sparked her to start wanting to learn and teach languages because no one could understand said mole.

Astra always respected lissa, but at the end she could see how stress and such was getting to her... But then we got kerri~ onf of a handful of paladins Astra got along with and respected.

Kazen Selizar, Emlina Selizar, & Rann McClow:
Three people she considers her siblings! specially given how the four of them started.. But eventually ended with them finally coming together when Astra stood her ground and continued to speak the truth, and stood up for them, despite people, to this very day, still claiming it as false....

Kazen's player has also done a lot to help me, specially with how rough things of been the past months and year, he's very much an interesting character in Kazen, and I hope you continue to stand strong.

Rann's player is another I'm very proud of, and was able to do something for when he was struggling in that mess, heh, I'm glad you stayed, you've done a lot of amazing things to help grow the server, and i really hope you keep going, made so much a lot easier on so many people.

Yeto:
One of the few elves Astra would openly call "brother" he was kind to her, and she loved being in his presence, and is once that she carries with her and tries to keep the memory of alive.

Keryvian Starym: (Archon)
Simple put? Astra's Strict Father figure, I'm sad she came in at the end of his story, and didn't get to spend much time with him... But he left an impact on her, and is a presence that she painfully misses... So far, she has no other coronal.

Ievos:
Hello equally strict uncle figuer!

Sheng Zhao, Quentian Vale, Ath, and Sylri:
Remember those handful of Paladins Astra respected and got along with? Yeah, these are the rest those guys. I'm sorry Ath, I can't remember how to spell your name but you also played Safier, that tiefling priest? So you know who you are ;3

Anyway, these are the four Astra actually respected as paladins, while Ath and Sylri where on the crazier end of the spectrum, she never really.. lost respect for them, and saw them as friends.

Sheng and Quentian where the people who set such a high standard for paladins for Astra, even if people spread rumors about Sheng ~aiding~ pirates, but she never really believed such a thing, and mostly was just people misinterpreting a conversation... Sheng and Quentian were good, reasonable people that made her feel like things would get better... When they left the island... She knew things were going to get worse.

Nehala Rain, Xunsalie, & Igogh:
A few of the close female friends Astra had, and can I just say? She seems to really gravitate to stronk tiefling ladies, even if Xun got a lil' cray cray in the end there.

Meriam Fuzzypaw:
Astra's sorta adoptive mother figure!...Who uh adopted her first, but hey she aint complaining!

Ghestalt, Falgrim, and Gorudan:
Astra always saw herself more as a dwarf then a elf, mostly because of how these three's influence, She didn't get along with the first thane at first, but .. that did eventually change, specially when he found out how she'd tried to help pull him when captured,

Falgrim was one of her first friends also! Surprise surprise, She'd made alchemist catalysts for him in her early days where he could make magical jewelry boxes... Astra then later met his clans brother (And actual brother?) Another Gurodan, which I'm sure you still laught to this day at how Jadoth and Astra went "Wait.. Your a paladin!? But.. But you actually give a crap about people!"

There's also that. .that illmatari paladin from Cordor, I can't remember his name, he worked with Gus while chansoller, and took the wounds of others onto himself as his healing,.. I can't remember your name, but he was another paladin Astra respected, and saw as a friend. (Aldrich!! That was your name!)

There so many names, like those of Astra's students, and the slaves she's helped, and i'm sure i'll be adding names as they come back but.. yeah.. These are some of many who've crossed Astra's life, and made her playable for me.

[MoreThanThree]

Astra was rosetta stone

[Dreams]

It was nice to play with Astra. In particular on one character Qianfan, who had the chance to be her student, an ally, and for the most part her enemy (in his disguise of Larry).

Glad to see you're on the right track and hope things go well for you! See you soon.

[Aelryn Bloodmoon]

Astra will be missed, but your health is way more important. Make sure you visit when it's not too stressful!

Astra is literally one of three reasons on the island that Cev didn't lose his mind over the past seven or so months! Thanks for that, too.

[Xerah]

Astra was a lot of fun! All the best to you.

[DM Avalon Soul]

Have to admit working with Astra on the Sandruck plot was a treat. While I am sad to see you go, I understand the reasoning and wish you all the best.

[Nikko]

Hope to see you again some time. Astra was kewl. <3

[Ecthelion]

It was always a delight to see Astra around. I'll miss her ! <3

I will, As you can see, there are many people Astra stuck around for, that even i didn't realize I stuck around for, eheheh Including Cev, even if he and Jad eventually get into it.

Astra was a lot of fun! All the best to you.

I'm glad to hear xD I hope she also wasn't to much of a grump for people as she aged / grew a bit.

Have to admit working with Astra on the Sandruck plot was a treat. While I am sad to see you go, I understand the reasoning and wish you all the best.

And it was a pleasure working with you, really did enjoy that event, I hope I did alright, was one of the times anyone could actually show people how Astra's mind worked, which I don't get to do a lot of because of how I have to omit a lot of thought diolog i'd normally add to a text-rp post.

Hope to see you again some time. Astra was kewl. <3

Glad to hear it <3 which PC was yours? or have i not added ya' yet?

It was always a delight to see Astra around. I'll miss her ! <3

Ahh yes I need to add you to the list! Despite never really talking full on, I'm glad how these two where on decent terms, even if Ecthelion was a butt sometimes, :p

[Nikko]

Hope to see you again some time. Astra was kewl. <3

You got me- I'm Vicko (all my nick names are dumb and they end in O.) Thanks for the mention. Hang in there.

!! !!

Glad too~ i've also added a lot more names since my last post.

[Ard]

Astra is one of those chars that brought charm on Arelith, and with her leaving - Arelith will never be the same...
Yet I very well know how important is a rest from things.

Hope to see you back soon, Astra ! You rock !

[jastewart1988]

I had a lot of fun role play in the past with you both as Rami the wild mage and Imrodi too. I wish there would of been more role play with both of them but the moments I did get I enjoyed hugely

[Mohailo]

It's been amazing to play with Astra, and yes. I still laugh at the memory of Jadoth and Astra finding out Gorudan was actually a paladin XD
A cherished memory =)

[A little fellow]

My Dwarf always had a tense relationship with the Arcane Tower that never really boiled over, but never really cooled down either. Astra was a large part of it never boiling over and the character played a large part in the closing of a nearly 3 years story, and for that I am ever thankful.
