It's beautiful outside, and I'm stuck doing taxes~
...Well, I should be doing my taxes, but I'm only slowly making progress. Pfft. Since I'm bored, and honestly kinda curious, I'll open up a question for my RP flist:
List all of your RP characters that you have dropped in a game you're still in. You can also add why you dropped or struggled with them or your current interest level in the character, if you want.
I think it's kinda fun to see past fandoms and who you were inspired enough to play. Let's see...

luceti
Ion (Tales of the Abyss) -- I believe I actually apped Ion before I apped Albert. I would have to look back and check on that. I had already played Sync and the original Fon Master Ion at that time (and I would go on to play Florian too), so I wanted to try out Ion. ...Turns out he's not really my kind of character. :|; As for current interest level ... I have no interest in trying him again. He's too innocent and dependent on others.
.
Frederic Francois Chopin (Eternal Sonata) -- Eternal Sonata was still fairly new at the time, and I had recently finished the game, with Frederic being my favorite. Apping him ended up having the dreaded bandwagon-and-drop effect; I had Polka, Waltz, and Fugue as castmates, and then they all inexplicably faded away. So I dropped Frederic. And now I'd have to replay the game to feel confident with his character again.
Reno (Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children) -- ...I don't think I can ever properly justify why I dropped Reno. I liked his character, I liked how he would troll both the FF7 and KH casts, and I liked making him a badass. I think I just felt bad that I wasn't active enough with his character for such an active and excellent FF7 cast. If I knew with confidence that I could handle playing four characters, I'd consider playing him again.
Leon D.S. Geeste (Star Ocean 2) -- Oh Leon. It took me forever to hit a stride with Leon -- three apps, two separate cases of him needing to be reintroduced to Luceti, and one actual drop. I played up his intelligence way too much in the beginning and could never get out of the web I created after that, so he faded and went quiet and all that. I have been very glad that my struggling with his character allowed him the opportunity to leave Luceti and return so many times though, developing from a 12-year-old to a 14-year-old. ...Aaand since I'm playing him again, I'd say my interest level is still intact!

Rei (Breath of Fire III) I didn't understand LJ RP at the time, so I figured it was best to let him go. I am playing him in another game.
Devil Sword: (Devil&Devil) I honestly love playing Sword, but without an Ios he sort of loses his edge. That, and I was still new to LJ RPing and didn't know what the hell I was doing. Would I play him again? Totally. Just not in Luceti.
Tison (Tales of Vesperia) I just couldn't hit my stride with him. :|; Probably wouldn't play him again.
Michelle (Infinite Undiscovery) Her cast kind of died so I just decided to let her go. I might app her again, but I'd have to drop some of my other characters.
Nero the Sable (Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus) Wrong game. Wrong time. I've discovered that in playing Nero, I need a damn Weiss or the muse either a) goes nuts, or b) throws himself into a depression and doesn't do anything. I'd app him into a game with a Weiss, but I think I'd have to know the player or it would just be very awkward for me.
Florian (Tales of the Abyss) Hardest thing I've ever had to do. But at the time, I just sort of lost my drive for him. It's since come back, but I'm wondering if I should bring him back.
... Damn, I've dropped more characters than I thought I did.
