Having been around for so long, there have been many, many great characters and roleplayers to play on FRC over the years. So many, in fact, that no one could possibly know about more than a fraction of them. So how about telling us about some of the more memorable characters/players that you've come across over the years, ones that you don't see around any more?

The player of Loria (Lucid dream) was a great roleplayer imo. Loria was a warrior lady that that had some interesting quirks and the player really managed to make her appear like a true badass. I still remember going with Loria, Fiona, Torgar, Joric and Chard to the marsh of Tun back in the day when I was cluless noob. That trip was interesting and and the battle with the giant beetle was cool.

I kind of miss Elvewyn and a few other of Ramir's characters. (I don't miss Sepoto.) I liked traveling with Apple when the new-vault came up.
I miss seeing Darkharp around more often too. I think he still plays, but I haven't seen him for months if he does.
Speaking of Alizarin Academy, I miss Doust too. He was trying to become third headmaster of Alizarin at one point, as I recall.
I miss Ayane complaining about Samantha even.

Vlad Tpish, who was one of Salina's old partners in crime in the days she ran around with the Banites, and Alora Spellbender, Salina's old arch-nemesis. More recently I miss Daisy. Aris of course, whose player is still here. And then there is Lysus, that kindly old priest of Ilmater, whose player is still around.

Hoot! Though the player has been around, the character is missed ;D Glandash. We may have gone our separate ways but he was great. Kungfu Chicken (Gorstag) too, and most of his alts. Thraden. Radu. Vala. Lance. Illios. Deldur. Brezren and Drast. Kirika. Hm. Plenty more, but it's hard to come up with them all on the spot! Do npcs count? Flaures

Yeah, Vladislav was the first one I was going to mention. That guy was a great villain, so far as I could see. His player posted a screenshot of his tells conversation with I think it was Aris's player, speaking of the Greatgaunt Fire, where he said, "Here Vladislav was thinking it was this big revolutionary movement, and it turned out it was all about butts and a drunk dwarf." Speaking of which, you can't ever forget "Jak" Gutterale, that being said drunk dwarf. He was "hot 'taters" with his wiggly unibrow. Probably the highest impact-per-playing-time character I ever saw. With a grand total of probably about ten hours of play time, he touched off an event that impacted role play for others for the next four years for tons of players, some of which characters who didn't even set foot in Cormyr until after the long outage, and about two and a half years after the event. I also remember Brandubh Cathal, the bard. He was a lot of fun. Dorian the paladin was great. Erynne fell in love with him and was on her way to more than likely marrying him, until the server went down for the LONG outage. Gorian was fun. He used to chase all the ladies around in Greatgaunt - CONTANTLY - with his spiky black hair and black leather clothes. He was like an eighties rock star, and I thought it felt very complimentary to be on the receiving end of it, from my character's perspective. Erynne secretly wanted to give in to his advances one day, until Dorian took center stage.

Celith Kalaben and Aren Moonbolt. Mouse of course. I remember a crazy hin axe wielder named Brand Gwig. He was hilarious, and rather frightening.
Good ol' Helgrin, Kyrion, Kasin, Grumm, and even Eberk. Awesome dwarves hehe.
Alino Mard, an excellent Black Sun cleric. Then Lilith. She played the creepiest old hag Velsharoonite ever.

Though I didn't get to RP with her much, I consistently name Mynian Copperhand (by ShadowCatJen) the best RP'd character I have had a chance to interact with over the years. Her consistent level of detail, choice of words and ability to fully immerse you in her RP, even something as simple as helping around Talbot's, has been unmatched, in my opinion. Lustig ( probablyamage), Ailren ( catmage), Kethoth ( Avhoste), Sharteel (Ancient Empathy, KFC), Wyn ( Lokarn), and Isabella ( mebriellz) are all characters that I specifically miss. Again going back, sometimes its not the specific characters I miss but the combined interactions of the past characters. Most of the DM's that were around when I first started had characters that I didn't RP a lot with but I enjoyed seeing the way they interacted with each other. Torian, Kam Malagan, Ranan, Phelzaron, Hrothgar Redbearde, Manshin, Vind, Sharita, Kelric, Hoot, Helgrin, Valla H., ...

Doust was another spellcaster (a sorcerer though) with the same head model as Lustig. I miss him too. He was played by jimkaf.

I didn't rp with Mynian here, was on Tales of the Silver Marches, but I would agree that her rp of the character was full of depth and consistent; it didnt hurt that she was one of the first female characters I encountered that wasn't all t&a. ic i viewed her as my seamstress's merchant rival.

I'll add a vote for both Rose and Mouse. And of course (I'm not biased, really) Flaures as the greatest of NPCs. Others I appreciated were a human monk named Trek Mazren (player Trek Mazren) and an Elf named Amywien Melin (player p_122); the first characters I met on FRC while playing Riell and Taure, respectively. Having singled those out, I'd like to offer a general "kudos you lot" to everybody. RP on FRC over the years has been funny, sad, hateful, loving, puzzling, frustrating and ... I've run out of words. But most of all, it's been entertaining.

I talked to him briefly today.

Ailren, Phelzaron, Ranan, Hrothgar, Manshin, Kelric, Sharita, Helgrin, Mouse, Rigrin, Alino, how can you forget Milly! Sharteel, Kethoth and his sneaky alts I miss Wynter as she was an ally and an enemy for so long. Most brazen assassin ever, but a nice rival to have, even when she never knew. Lance Merrick for my own reasons.

Lance Merrick for my own reasons. Phelzaron and Lance Merrick are still around sometimes, I believe. It's been a couple months since I've seen either in-game, but dirkperfect isn't gone, at least. I heard Mouse was around briefly a few months ago, but I haven't seen her in-game personally. Kelric's player and Sharita's player are both around, though the characters aren't. I know Milly's player still plays as Valera but I think Milly may be retired? Sharteel's player was also on, but I think Sharteel is also a character of the past. I saw Helgrin's player on within the past two months, but as a dwarf that wasn't Helgrin. The server was just down 3 weeks after the hard drive went bad, and the new-vault was rolled back about 2 weeks to the last backup, so people are still trickling back in. I keep occasionally hearing about a mass email that was sent out to let people know the server was back up, but I never got it myself.

When I arrived on the server, there was Jacob Octavia, cleric/paladin of Tyr, who founded the Silver Shields, Sabermoe, a scoundrel but very fun guy to play with, Raven Rift the ultimate evil Cyrist bad guy, and Jurivancer's Lathanderite paladin (whose name escapes me at the moment, but his character always preached "The Dawn comes after the Darkest part of night", something that greatly influenced how Sharita looked at life.) Donovan the Monk.
A little after came along Desiree Stormbringer the priestess of Talos who embodied CN, (and was as hilarious as she was scary), Thorstein, Torian, Hrothgar, Vind, Gial, Ranan, Gero, Glewien, Vinduil, Aelrik, Phelzaron, Helgrin, Aris, Edward(?) the Blackguard of Lovitar, The Zae, Kelric, Yulena, Mynian, Vrulo...
And so many more. They may not come to mind at the moment, but I really appreciate all movers and shakers of the past and the present. Kudos to you all. You have helped make FRC what it has become today.

You have helped make FRC what it has become today. We had some fun times! I think you and I, Kolfrosta might be the two oldest players on the FRC in terms of length of playing here! Not counting Justicar of course! I have good memories of many of those PCs as well. Others that come to my mind, DM Bassa, ManyasOne/Hexter, DM Richard, any of their PCs as well as DMs.

I haven't really been here amazingly long as a few of you have, so most of the people I know or have known are still around in some way or another.
I do miss Loria, as Merc said too. Lucid Dream was really cool. A few characters that I met when playing as Dreshae, that I really loved to bits that aren't around anymore would have to be.. Mahrek Vargas and Chard.

Sharita Gallen, Kelric Hawkrune were of my favorites.
to name a few more though: Glewien sellows, Aren Moonbolt, Vind the Ranger, Vinduil Elysuin
to go even further back: Helgrin (props above) Manshin Zaebros I also remember a paladin whom was involved with the silver shields.
there also was several other long time bard-type characters, who's name is slipping my mind, "min" is what I want to write, and the character that married helgrin. was a goodie too.

For me it was always fun to play with my real life baddie friends: Chril, Marklar, and Jorban, and all those who were involved with them (Ranan, Louis, Veshal, etc.). That group help give evil a face here.
I enjoyed a all my interactions with Donovan, Manshin, Kelric, Yulena, Keetena, Glewien, Aelrik, Valla, Phelzaron, Shivata, Sharita and many more.
