The time has come, I was planning to keep him if not for a day or two more but seeing as I have quite a few things happening this week I won't find the time.

Max Str, Dex, Con, HP and had one under the racial max for Cha.

There really are too many that contributed to Strais personality, and general enjoyment while I played to name them all.
Lirimaer, Alifer, Nemarosa, Furaha and Yavarisakran really do deserve special thanks though.

In all, Strai was a character I made when I returned to SK from a year long break. And I made a sprite swash because I love sprites and swash because its the only class I really have practice with.

Thanks

Strai was a very well played lightie character. I enjoyed all our interactions, the PK and the no PK ones. And I really liked the discussions through tells.

GL with your next.

From what little I saw of Strai, I liked him. Dunno what else to say.

Alas, poor Strai. I knew him, Lirimaer..

Sorry to see the little guy go.

A little background;

Quote:

Standing at no more then seven inches tall, this fascinating little
creature appears no more then a miniature elven man with elegant snow-white
wings sprouting from his slender back. As you look closer, you notice his
wings are slightly longer in length then his body, webbed with tiny black
veins the tail of his wings are jet-black. Sky-blue eyes peer out from his
tiny head, full of life and awareness of the area around him. His wild hair
is pure white with wisps of jet-black streaked though it randomly, sticking
out in every direction. Pointed ears peak out from behind his hair, showing
the fae heritage in this mystical little creature.

Strai was born in the Icewall Mountains of the southern borders of the Northern Wastes, to a small village of Cloudrunners hidden in the snow. Strai was a pureblooded Cloudrunner, his parents and him moved to Elisair when he was only a few years old though in his age Strai doesn't remember the village or its whereabouts.

He grew in Elisair, his parents attempted to teach him in the ways of magic as his mother was a sorceror and his father a warlock but unortunately Strai was never able to focus for long and innately had very little magical power for a sprite. Instead in his spare time Strai took to flitting about the fields chasing butterflies for fun (a habit he kept throughout his life), and protecting the small creatures and insects where he could if he found them in trouble. Often using only thorns or small sticks he found lying nearby and through this he found his calling as a warrior.

This.. is actually all I had wrote for his background story when I thought his personality over. But it really gives the basis for alot of his choices, his father being a warlock being the real cause behind him becoming a Yeddite etc.

Aww, Strai was such a long-lived character. He was overall a likable one and fun to be with. Strai wasn't too fussy about equipment, went out there to fight generally prepared, usually lends assistance to allies and friends when available, including not backing down from the threats in the realms. These qualities are rare and appreciated.

Most important of all, Strai's player has a good sense of player to player decency when it comes to the field. Strai brought an era to Ayamao and it wasn't overshadowed by his leaders, because he stood out in his own right during his prime. The sprite stuck to the principles and ideals of the Guardians and held his own in times of trouble.

Well-played character, the sprite speech was infectious, and he will be missed. Good luck with next.

:[ Sad. I don't play as much anymore but I certainly will miss the swinging-from-the-hair sprite.

Good luck with next.

Rest in peace, Little Big Chief. I loved Strai. Cookies will be eaten in his memory.

I respected Strai very much as a character, and the player as well, like Min said I always valued your sense of ooc courtesy.

Well done.
