In Memory of Dansantes

[PrlUnicorn]

Over the years we have lost roleplayers for many reasons, the hardest, of course, is when they move on to the next plane.

Yesterday, some members of the RP community received news that the player behind Dansantes and former Duel of Magic Supervisor has passed away. Jax was an active part of our community and a gifted storyteller. She was also the creative force behind Jack Scot as well as numerous characters from the Times of Tribulation and Lyran Tal RP/writing groups. She was, as the saying goes, good people.

Here is a link to her obituary if anyone would like to leave a message for her family.

Dangit.

She was a wonderful person, and well-loved. She will truly be missed.

I don't have a folder yet here (I'm working on it) so I hope you'll allow my posting here.

Jack Scot has long been an important part of Lucy's story. Although we had not written much over the last couple years as Jack's writer focused on other things, I will always be grateful for the short but precious time I had with her.

She was talented and original. Generous with her time, her creativity, and her writing. I am so saddened by her loss---for her family and friends, and everyone here who had the opportunity to be creative with her and get to know her on any level.

I can think of no better way to honor her than to share one of the last scenes we wrote together. Crow and Ribbons. It's a bit long but I did not want to edit it for obvious reasons. The ending is painful and lovely.

Lucy still has one pale pink ribbon of Jack's magic. Someday, I will find a way to finish this last tendril of Jack's storytelling. But for now, as a writer, I treasure it.

I remember this character from when I first started role playing on AOL. It wasn't until a few years ago that I finally had the chance to actually role play with them, with Suliss'. She tried so hard to steal one of his ribbons, and it was such a glorious scene that I still remember it.

I will miss Jax and mourn them greatly, as will Suliss'. My heart to her friends and family, in real life and here on the internet.

My beloved ribbon-man. Delightfully dedicated to venery and yet somehow, a stern and cold king. JackScott's player was simply wonderful, and so funny, so intelligent, and just a wonderful friend.

It was a hard blow when I was told Jaxx was gone. Just to lose her so suddenly was awful. Her wonderful voice will always be remembered.

I know that Jack Scott will be forever tramping the realities and finding fun and adventure and love and lust wherever he goes, sharing ribbons or keeping them for himself, and remembering when he remembers and forgetting merrily.

He was truly an archetype, and so was Jaxx.
