Dear Smile,

… you had me once and a while,
… you made good trouble and scared people vile,
… you worked so much with tool and tile,
… you know, there will be reason for you to dial ….


Ah, enough of that ! Smile you will be missed ! And further I wish all good and luck your way ! Perhaps not soon but hopefully sooner to see you back again ! Perhaps not as DM but as Player in your precise free time ahead. Thanks for all and the wonderful encouragement and encounters !

Hugs and grins

Hello everyone! This "thank you" is a bit long!

I have been offered IRL a new contract for a new job: three months of trial, and it might be extended indefinetely once the period of trial is over. This is a chance I've been waiting since when I started my career, and school, about 3 years ago.
What I am going to say is that once I am done with all the narrative arcs (they should be closed relatively soon! Don't forget Saturday 7th, and I'm aiming for 1700 GMT, there will be the finale of the Hellfire Wyrm campaign arc!), I will be leaving as a Dungeon Master.

Why?

Because I cannot guarantee continuity, because a DM that sits there and does nothing (considering the amount of work we should be doing as DM) is not a DM worth having - and I would feel terrible in staying there and doing nothing, like a forgotten book... even if these are the Forgotten Realms!

As some of you noticed, I already put out the announcement seeking new candidates for new DMs, and I hope some of you will apply! Maybe one day I will return as a DM, or maybe not: only the future me will know, and that will be his problem and responsibility!

I just want to say it has been an honor playing with you all, and a pleasure most likely. I want to thank this beautiful community for all the feelings you gave me, for the tears and chuckles and laughs and ENDLESS PAPERWORK (yes, I'm looking at you: if you did it, you know it! ) and generally for being you.

Of course there has been some good, some bad, and also some that is neither of them... but as a whole, I am grateful for everything and every opportunity you (as a community) have allowed me to try and make your characters great... and the DM Team that welcomed me as ADM a few years back.

I give you all my best, and we'll see each others again, one way or another!
I hope, at least once, my plots made you smile, or feel something!
Which is all I hoped for.

Once every quest and event is concluded, I'll leave. Until then however.
Thank you everyone, deeply, from the heart.

Peace!
