Blessed are those who mourn,
for they shall be comforted

If you have a dead character, post them here.

Post a summary of their life, their ambitions, what they wanted to accomplish. How they died, where they died, when they died; where their gemstone is. What they contributed to the caves, what events or important threads they participated in. Any tables or avatars or art they have, any quotes that fit them. Their relationships--their friends, their enemies, their children and mates.

here lies vinnie

cycle 5 — cycle 50

Killed by his own warm heart. And it being ripped out by an Eyehook Vulture.

Name: Vincenzo, aka Vinnie the Voice
Age at Death: 45 Cycles
Closest Relationships: Mayngo
Proudest Moment(s): Seeing his buddy running the Olympics Obstacle Course
Goals/Ambitions: Help his pals, make up bad poetry
Quests/Events Participated in: Twinkling I Heard On The Roof; The Trial of Hydra
Cause of Death: Killed by Eyehook Vulture
Gemstone Location: Foot

Poor Vincenzo. Vinnie the Voice. Loud, obnoxious, foul-mouthed, but the warmest heart you ever knew. Took pity on all the kids he ran across; did his best to try and help 'em out, ya know? But ehh... that didn't go so well, in the end. After failing to convince Mayngo, his pretty much adopted Fossa kid, not to join the potentially-fatal Trial of Hydra, he followed him--he knew what'd happen, really, but he couldn't let Mayngo go alone. Almost immediately poor Vinnie got pounced by a vulture, which took first his eye, then his heart. That said, he got his revenge, kinda, before he died--there's now one vulture soaring Hydra that's missing an eye of its own.

He just... hopes Mayngo makes it.

Vinnie's old table. Pretty, right?

here lies andraste

cycle 1 — cycle 4

SHE WISHED TO ILLUMINATE IT ALL
BEFORE HER HEART WAS TOUCHED BY CHAOS

Name: Andraste
Age at Death: 4 Cycles
Closest Relationships: Vathrahi, her sister
Proudest Moment(s): Telling stories with light
Goals/Ambitions: Spreading light
Quests/Events Participated in: None
Cause of Death: Met Him
Gemstone Location: As seen on Senka

IT'S TIME TO BEGIN ISN'T IT

Andraste always believed there was a greater being possessing the caves; but she believed they would be good and bright. She spent countless hours laying in the cool air of Tunnel M, staring into Orion and dreaming about what wonders its sparkling ceiling held. She loved the dancing lights her element could create, and loved sharing this with everyone, especially her sister Vahi. However, she was shy, and would often leave baubled items as gifts while others were away. Most of her time was spent relaxing in the cold respite of Tunnel M.

When she started to hear voices, she did as they commanded, but began to question their motives when they had her doing more and more sinister acts. Eventually, she was imbued with a heaviness she did not know and could not see, but she felt it sink into her core and drown her. She lost who she had ever been and became a shadow of her former self.

I GET A LITTLE BIT BIGGER BUT THEN I'LL ADMIT
I'M JUST THE SAME AS I WAS

here lies BEVY

cycle 2 — cycle 10

and also the hopes and dreams of MW

Name: Bevy (aka Enna, Ratchie, Calypso, a few others)
Age at Death: 9 Cycles
Closest Relationships: the old MW crew
Proudest Moment(s): Taking care of the injured
Goals/Ambitions: Being a good momma bird, and she did her best. nursed lots of gembounds.
Quests/Events Participated in: Shed Some Light", The Fiery Pit P3, [MW] The Fiery Pit Back Up, what of the stone? Beast's Quest, The Carvings
Cause of Death: Laserbeamed to pieces in Pisces by Kerberos
Gemstone Location: split into three babs: Zanya - Coyah - Scarborough

here lies DARK

cycle 5? — cycle 13?

Sometimes the blind see most clearly.

Name: Dark
Age at Death: 8 Cycles
Closest Relationships: Bevy (like a mother to him)
Proudest Moment(s): Helping to fight Raheerah
Goals/Ambitions: To learn everything
Quests/Events Participated in: The Fiery Pit
Cause of Death: Sickened by Kerberos' Pulsar, then hunted down and killed by Belladonna & Dianysma
Gemstone Location: Eyes; revived as Kai

Dark was hatched shuffling through Origin's tunnels. With eyes replaced by gemstones, the owl had to rely wholly upon sharp hearing--and on the esoteric magic of his mind--to navigate the world around him. A seer, of sorts--if in a confused, distracted way--the owl saw past and future more than he "saw" the present. Gentle, simple, and shy, he kept to himself and spoke only infrequently, with some trouble clearly explaining himself and what he could see. He considered the bird Bevy to be his mother--she was kind, and a medic to others, and he followed her with faithful love.

During the events of the Fiery Pit, he tried several times to distract the dragon Raheerah by touching his mind to its own, for some little aid during the fight.

Dark was killed when struck by Kerberos' Pulsar attack on Bevy, after Bevy herself had gone quite mad. Badly-injured, terrified and still quite blind, Dark made his way alone into the darkest recesses of the caves--where the equally-mad deer Belladonna, and her white raven ally Dianysma, found him. For a time they tormented him--with shadows, mind-lies and disease--before shattering his foot and leaving him there to die. It was a very sad end to a very innocent, gentle life.
