OC: Reset Blues
OC:
So reset is set to kill, in an anticlimactic and stupidly weak manner, my favourite character. Needless to say I'm disappointed with this. With some strange bit of luck maybe I'll be allowed to move Jack to Athens but I hold little hope and frankly while I have many a werewolf concept in mind I don't know if I'd want to play any of them after such a crap death sentence. I've been looking forward to Jack dying in a cool way, she's the second character I ever made in anything ever with my first character having suffered the crapest death ever (aside from possibly this one). And I wanted her to have a cool death that would be talked about by other characters, that would make waves even, that would be noticed.
Now she's just going to be another name on the list of dead Australian Uratha, and why did they die? Not because of some IC thing, not because of plot, because of some fucking stupid OC vote. I respect that some people want a hard reset in Forsaken, I was even rather supportive of a hard reset in Requiem, but a hard reset in werewolf destroys the chance for so many cool stories.
I hope to continue posting Jack stories in this, I have so many in my head and I have to admit that I've just been a bit lazy posting them. She's had quite a life and I love writing it out, showing how my lovely little fanatic evolved into the bastard she is. I like to think that Jack has a good reason for every one of her actions and ideas, she's a character with a wealth of back history angst and awesomeness that doesn't all get told in one sitting or at the drop of a hat. She's a character I've played for over four years and who has only once told someone their deedname and even then didn't explain it, something I always rather hoped I'd get the chance to tell in game but which required a lot of factors for the telling to happen, factors that never really happened.
A lot of factors have really disappointed me about all this. The loss of the UK Cam was a blow, I had ties and NPCs and history for my character in the UK that was great fun. There's a lot to Jack's story and I'm going to continue to write it. I just hope and wish I can continue to play it, doubtful that will happen though.
