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!

Seymour Guado (Final Fantasy X) -- I love Seymour, I really do. I love playing him, but I found I just cannot keep up with his level of creepy in a comment-based game where I have to reply to dozens of tags in a single post. In a forum- or log-based game, fine. Just not in something like Luceti. He's still there as a muse and I still play him in an old private game a few friends and I have going on, but chances are I won't be bringing him back to Luceti.
