Thancred: Goodbye
Posted: Sat Sep 11, 2021 9:14 pm
The curtain has closed for Thancred. It's been a fun story, and a fun time to play him and meet the variety of characters along the way!
From arriving in Guldorand to joining the Citadel up the Spires, to meeting Myon elves and starting to live there, and participating in the Cordorian tournaments, it's been a great ride and I am grateful to all that have shared in it!
I will be following this with a list of names of people that I wish to thank for the great times, but Thancred has met many people and inevitably some names won't be on the list that deservedly should be due to my sloppy memory!
Aideen: The first person he met when leaving the boat. Plenty of adventures were had and a better shield than his actual shield!
Blacktooth: Up the manor of Mourn where they first met, friendly and helpful and his first introduction to the Citadel
Branna: Teammate #1 in the tournaments. The whispered commentaries were always a joy.
Daeran: Convinced in his beliefs and steadfast in his actions. The interactions were few but always open to make time.
Eli: First met fighting eachother in the Guldorand arena, they became quicker friends than Thancred expected but a welcome surprise!
Henry Yllakas: A quiet man, purposeful and it took a few interactions to get past superficial talks, but afterwards respect for him grew.
Kalliope: From dislike, to begrudging tolerance to wry acceptance. She's certainly a colourful character the likes he hadn't really met before.
Karathas: Met while quietly holding vigil in the night. Once turned into several times, and a cherished friendship developed quickly. Wise words and confidante.
Lysanthir: Several times opinions and thoughts changed in regards to him, but an ally he felt he could always rely on.
Melindy: From the first meeting in the Cordor outskirts, to more within the Citadel. A person he respected and valued greatly.
Mystia: From a seemingly polite gesture to more practical meetings. To becoming friends and then having more in depth conversations. Truely at one point, one he recognized himself in the most.
Nilith: Teammate #2 from fighting alongside her, to amusing conversations in the halls and under the arena. Great times were had!
Nyora: From an awkward first meeting to more in depth interactions. Getting to know each other and encouraging his artistic forays, to becoming a retainer. Someone Thancred treasured and that knew him the best.
Ragnar: Another retainer for Nyora. Someone Thancred kept at a polite distance at first, but thought
Siltrin: Quiet, yet a clear presence when around. To the point and a great ally to have.
While I could write more for each and list many more names, I will leave it as that.
The last moments were great, and thank you to DM Wraith for helping with organizing his end and giving it that little bit of extra touch.
Thanks again to everyone that helped shape his story into what it has become!
Perhaps, and hopefully we'll interact again on my next character!
