A bloody, burn-y, horribly messy end. UGH! I&#8217;m so bummed out about it!<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I&#8217;ve been pretty lucky, despite having some kill-happy DMs in our group, for though I have had a few characters drop, this is my first <b>real<\/b> dead character. Telly came back, Mim was raised too, and Nyx was unconscious, but never totally ganked. Rhiallis is utterly dead. A ninth level mage&#8217;s Fireball left her a crispy pile of Paladin.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I really shouldn&#8217;t complain &#8211; we were two PCs from a TPK that night. Jason&#8217;s Ranger, Red; Paul&#8217;s Wizard, Seraphina; Tim&#8217;s Fighter, Mickey Shambo; Brian&#8217;s brand new Paladin, Celeste; Mike&#8217;s Oracle, Ema&#8230; all dead. Only Chris&#8217; Rogue, Mira, and Rhesa&#8217;s Samurai, Kumiko, lived to tell the tale.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; It happened a few days ago now (well, I&#8217;m writing while the wound is still fresh&#8230;) and while I am mostly over it, I cannot help but be sad about her demise.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Rhiallis was my favorite PC so far. She was proper, but had fun. She was heavily armored, but bad at combat. She was a leader, a spokesperson, a bad-ass healer, a real &#8220;Lawful Good&#8221; type but not at all &#8220;Lawful Stupid&#8221;. She had friends, she was fun to write about, her background was tragic and I hope to share it one day.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; But now she&#8217;s gone.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The good news is that that means I can work up a slew of all new characters. Whee! I do so love new characters.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I could bring in Makoto Yu (did you ever read about <a href=\"XX\">her<\/a>) or, more likely, someone new. An elf maybe. I&#8217;ve never played an elf. All humans, except Rhiallis, who as a human-like Aasimar.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; What sort of new character sketches will you be faced with, now that Rhiallis is gone?<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Well&#8230; to start, there are a bunch of installments of her story scheduled for the rest of June. So, she&#8217;s not gone from the blog yet. And after that&#8230; who knows?<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I am just SO sad.<br \/>\n&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Rest in Peace, Rhiallis, you fictional diva you&#8230; *sniffle*<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/jeezjosie.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/signature.jpg\" alt=\"Signed, Josie\" width=\"92\" height=\"139\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13\"\/><br \/>\n<i>Note: Image is &#8220;dices&#8221; by (tijmen) from SXC.hu<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SPOILER ALERT!
