  • 1st place:
    Angus Blacksail

    2nd place:
    Jenny Hallenden
    Oorayv'levena
    Silver Fox


The prizes:
1st Prize: 500 experience points per character level
2nd Prize: 250 experience points per character level

Congratulations to everyone!

--------

Jenny is a LG character who puts the G before the L, like it belongs, like in the alphabet too! Well played.

Father Kurt is truly insightful and gives the best sermons a true shame Angus spoils them by picking a fight he knows he could never win.

Lalant has a ton of depth to him, really fun to RP with.

Oorayv constantly shows that he has gone from Pussy Mage to Bad Ass Mofo.

Kassha Fireheart: Bud Light Presents... Real Mages of Genius. Today we salute you, Mister Crazy Flaming Umbrella Waver. When other people arm themselves with stakes to fight vampires, you arm yourself with steaks. All over your body, like the really ugly kid wanted his dog to play with him. You may not be part of the Keepers of the Cycle, but you'll be welcome at any barbecue. So here's to you, Mister Crazy Flaming Umbrella Waver.

Sadow is a true Malekian badass. He doesn't even flinch to consider the reprecussions of his sometimes violent actions. He can preach with the best of them, to boot.

Orfanos - Avlis' best (only?) sahhf lahndahn Ogah!

Silver Fox never has a "down" moment. When she's in game, she's fully in character. More than I can say for myself.

Anomandaari the Philosopher is a hands down unnatural disaster. Can't touch this.

Garek & Thror = Dwarves on Parade!!!

Miriel, for all the hard RP trying to get her fatespinning spun.

Kassha is always so fun.. especially when his skin is peeling off.

Lucien Dark: Phear teh Professor!

Kurt Villainova is genuinely inspirational to watch in action. Calm, polite and logical, yet a Malekite through and through, he's an island of nuance in a sea of high-camp villainy.

Hester because she reacts so nicely every time I encounter her..

Syten. Only met this new Character once. But what a meeting, a lasting impression was made and I'm really looking forward to rp with this Character more often. If he was a cake I'd want to have it all instead just one slice. All You "ChaoticAwesomes", Beware!! there's a new Sheriff in town!

Thienna Relimion & Flenken Jolliemausch = Yarr!

Annabelle is such a bitch, but, she can be sweet as pie!

Peter Tolliver & William Bastion Two hard-working salt-of-the-earth Mikonians who start to look out at the greater world. Young Pete is eager to have adventure whereas fatherly old Will makes sure that Peter doesn't stray from the true and honourable street. Great roleplay really!

Lucien Dark - Such an in depth character, and played exceptionally well in all facets.

Vanar is the warm bath after a rough day and the bottle of wine you keep buying because of it's consistent quality.

Jenny Hallendon is like the shy young girl who is slowly growing into an independent woman, and finds herself having to deal with all sorts of ne'erdowells. Very well played!

Rye is a gem, an absolute blast to rp with.

Yenefer Urgash I just love the way the player roll plays the Yen character, can't wait to meet her again.

Selash, the elf, who everyone thinks, that him being a wuss, naivé, undetermined softie. Wrong! At first glance he is all that, but once you get to know him, his darkside surfaces and you have to get to know him once again. Very multifacetted, very intelligent, always IC and the Player is one hell of a likeable person too. Much like his PC.

And Batali - she was very good to me, thought me a lot, and in a great way. Both of them made the game fun for me.

Aur. Understated. Just don't don't get him angry.

Ath'nook Nekk'en Ladies and Gentlemen: more confusing than a Confounder's were-fish strawberry castle of Aargh, more scary than the The'tonite under your bed, deadlier than NE T'Nanshi - there he comes! Those who have noticed all the philosophical sophistication and well-hidden layers of humanity in the Crimson Gith... He's coming for you. Watching out is futile.

Oorayv - Everything a sneaky evil backstabbing bastard should be!

Silver kicks ass! Always a pleasure to play with!

Ulu kicks some serious butt. Fast with a blade or retort, either way they'll strike deep. She's a character that is addictive with her fiery spirit and deadly blades!

Ang - The right combination of funny, aloof, and kind of an arsehole (ICly).

And who can't say good things about Mhog!

Ath'nook's speechwriter can't allow himself a day off: his creative lines and inventive use of language is simply non-stop.

Elgos is one of those mages that can be found sitting on the porch with family and friends enjoying tea early in the morning, and making the evil guys sorry they were born on late afternoons. He is the everyday hero, and we can only wish his wife lets him go out more.

Kassha Firehart, the polite, well-spoken and normal young mage... who likes to wear mutton. How can you beat that?

Gak is really a special character played by someone who makes it their mission to be party and adventure inclusive. More so than anyone I've ever seen. Everyone should be more like Adm. Venge in this regard.

Hyacinth Pike Remember, you cant waste your vote if you don't vote!

Janur, because he truly is a gentleman, and a very cautious type.. love the way he is been played...

Despite secretly being Dolph Lundgren in drag, Silver Fox is in all other respects an excellently portrayed character. Never over the top, yet always interesting, she's also RPed with considerable generosity, actively creating opportunities for other characters to shine alongside her.

Orfanos is the biggest tub of bluster and seething indignation I've come across in a while. Great fun.

Even with that kinky bone arm, I thoroughly enjoy RPing with Kelvos. His very believable portrayal of a Malekite is right up there with some of my favorite characters.

Samwir is my favorite gnome ever. I adore him.

Ash .. I'm waiting for the next twist in him. I know it's coming.

I have to give love to Rickus, who always puts more effort than anyone else I've ever seen into being dull, to hilarious effect. This month I've really been getting to see another side that really fills out this character as a person and as a Justicar.

Orfanos! An awesome violet initiate dude who really puts up with a lot in a really cool way. The way he expresses himself and the effort gone into the character deserves recognition, he rocks!

Quin is a very bad elf. And I mean that in the best possible way.

Ang leaves me speechless at times. A character of darkness and turmoil that can suddenly appear and turn any situation on its head.

Syten has come up with a really different character concept and backstory, challenging to play and challenging to interact with its really a case where I could have assumed I've seen it before and walked away, but I'm so glad I didn't.

Angus is such a fun character, even though he is a bit of a bastard.

I've voted for Lucien for 8 months straight, I'm not stopping until he wins.

Aur has consistently impressed me with his character and background. It takes a while to get past the *hrmphs softly* emotes, but once you do you find out that he's more than just a pretty farmer boy. Ten thumbs up!

Whether he's being out and out evil or just a surly bastard, Angus Blacksail is one of the most consistently entertaining characters in the game.

Ave, the only orc who doesn't know enough not to run around with a Valokian.

Brant Risko is one of the funniest characters I've had the pleasure of spending time with. His wacky antics recently have been the subject of more IC and OOC jokes than I can possibly count.

Syten - A gloomy night. Somewhere near the T'Nanshi entrance to Deglos. "I like your axe. My name is Thenter. I like your bow." -- this PC has made me exceed my gaming time twice already, and I fear there's more to come.

Sir's logic never stops being painful or amusing!

Thanks, people. For serious.

And congrats to everybody, period. Reading (and writing) comments about the great characters on Ablus is one of my very favorite things. You folks are dope.
