Memorial for Durc

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   It's very sad for her family to have lost her so near the holidays as well.
I liked durc -- I got a kick out of the her persistence in role-playing the character, what with the broken English and "dim orc" routine. I sometimes wish there was more role-playing like that, and durc was committed to it.

I don't how she died -- if she was sick -- but after losing Amroth not too long ago, one cannot notice that a fair number of active players in this game are sick. Some terminally. It's a good game for the infirm, since it is engaging, immersive, and lets bed-ridden folks make connections with other people in a fun atmosphere. It certainly beats watching bad television all day.

God bless you durc, and your family.

	Its taken me all day to manage to write something; everything I start writing seems trite. So i will just remember the hunts Durc and Nightshade went out on, and smile when thinking of that Pug in a tank... Goodbye my friend, the world is less for your leaving.

	Wait what? We had plans to hang out when I visited the town she lived in, in about a month. It will be very sad to visit there without meeting her.

	Durc and I started Illy around the same time. I knew her most of that time. I remember the first time i saw her break character was when we started talking about books. She was also a big music lover, I remember staying up many late nights listening to music with her. I still have the IGM she sent me with a picture of her when she confided in me that she was a lady. Durc that message will be marked unread and remain marked so. You will be missed Durc orc. You will always be a classy lady. ropa

	Farewell Durc, One of the peaceful people of the world in both word and deed. As leader of the Cave, you showed us how to enjoy the world of Illyriad in new ways and to enjoy and respect each others as players and people. You tried in every way to make Illyriad as you would have liked the real world to be. You showed kindness, respect, a helpful attitude and a love of the game. Your joy was a fountain from which I and many others were refreshed. I've seen but a taste of the vision you've tried to show us all and it sticks in my memory. You are missed. FritzHugh
