What? WHAT?!?!?!?!
You're not going to believe this... but yesterday I was poking around my desk at work, and thought. "Y'know... I think I'll try SK again. Why not. Carmen's probably still around... maybe I can play off that with New Character A. Made a character, and wham-bam-thank you ma'am... here I find out Carmen bit the dust.
There was no single character in the game that helped define Othet more than Carmen. Luthor to Superman, Joker to Batman, good sense to Scientology, Carmen was in every way the opposite. Othet always held hope, Carmen long knew that the world was sick. Othet always kept blood as a last resort, Carmen merely saw it as seasoning. What was the same between them, though, was their complete, total, and unyielding devotion to their ideals, which made for some outstanding encounters, both social and tactical. Carmen took the time to RP, and open completely new routes to explore with a character, something I am still grateful for.
My only regret is that I never got to find out how her story ended... I feel I got to the last chapter... then put the book away. I would love to hear the tale if you have the time.
In all seriousness, an outstanding character, a pleasure to play with, and a joy to have as an archenemy. Thanks for making SK so fun to play.
