If you don't LARP, the following may not make much sense, and may in fact sound silly.



My Legends character, Sinduri, went to her final death this morning. (The way death works in the game is, you get some number of deaths before it becomes permanent. Eventually, you get to a point where it becomes a matter of chance whether you come back. I reached that point, was given five runes to choose from (of which four meant I went back and one meant I didn't), and chose wrong.)

It was a good death, as these things go, dying while trying to save her teacher and mentor from his own final death. I was glad it wasn't some stupid random encounter.

But it's still an odd feeling. Sinduri was the first LARP character I ever played, and I've been playing her for more than four years now. That's a lot of weekends spent living inside her head. She had quite a long life for a LARP character, and survived an awful lot of deaths (16, I believe I was told), but it's still very strange to think of her as gone.

The end was so sudden that it's still a bit stunning, but I expect I will be "processing" this, as they say, for at least a few days. It sounds silly to grieve for a figment of my own imagination, but I do.
