I also talk about this group a lot and some of the awesome events we've been through.</p>
<p>I really like playing Brandon/Edmond and enjoyed the interplay between him and Beppo and Aemon in particular.</p>
<p>Ill admit I haven't been as regular in posting recently as I'd like but work hasn't let up in the run up to Xmas and holiday preparation rolled in with that.</p>

Most of the reasons are personal. Mainly, as I look ahead to 2014, I want to reduce the number of concurrent campaigns I run so I can make the remaining campaigns a higher quality, deeper-RPG experience. Running contradictory to that is the fact that my responsibilities are increasing at work which makes this it more difficult to do just that on these play by posts. And, judging by the number and whatnot of the posts, many of you are in similar circumstances. </p>
<p>With that being said, I've loved this campaign so far, and I loved the roles and characters each of you have played. I brag about this group all of the time, and when it comes to getting in character, this group has been second to none. That's sayin' something since I've run over a half dozen campaigns since PF came out. Brandon, some of your posts are legendary. I love your character and the way you played him. Beppo, you've played the traditional in-your-face warrior I love so much very well. Kyle has made me laugh with his over the top love for the ways of Sheyln. Awesome stuff. And the rest of you too, of course!</p>
<p>Let me know what you think. Happy Holidays to all, as well.</p>I've given this a lot of thought...and I believe the right decision for me is to step down as GM of this campaign.

<p>I'm also not opposed to whipping up a new character entirely. Killian never spent any PPs, so it's not like it's a loss in that respect. If I did make a new character, I think he or she would be proficient at trapfinding. It feels awfully risky bringing low-level NPCs like Damaia into places that are starting to tout save-or-die traps!</p>
