I enjoyed playing her, and the interactions I had with other characters. I will always remember being told Beccah was a major reason why an overly-humanized griffon deleted (due to the talk about living in the "zang" and how no griffon who has not experienced that life can measure up, or somesuch thing). My character helped someone else delete their character. Not something to be overjoyed about, to say the least. But also not something that negatively affected Beccah in any way. And not at all a reason for my own deletion of a char.

Woognit is a name I have used for multiple sprites, none of whom ever made it to veteran until this last one. And I never expected this one to make it to veteran, either. My very weak and brief desc, while containing multiple blood-lines (most prevalent were Sunspark, Blood-wing, Springfoot), was created just to move on to novice.
This marks my 4th ever GM, and he only made GM in the last 3 hours of his 280. I have never previously had a non-infra char get past vet. Another of my accomplishments with Woognit is the introduction of a new teacher (old NPC) in Elisair (and you can find out who that NPC is and what that NPC teaches on the crystal noteboard), along with a couple novelty sprite swash-centric weapons.
I tried to play an old-school sprite as close to the "sprite" and "sprite-culture" helpfiles as I could. The elf priest's quote, I think, matches pretty closely. Woognit considered family to be of absolute importance, and the responsibilities that go along with creating a child, and that created a bit of a stir. Woognit could never remember if he had 4 mothers and 5 fathers or 5 mothers and 4 fathers, but that wasn't really important. What was important was the fact his parents took responsibility for raising their children, and he was highly offended that other people wouldn't take the same responsibility.
Woognit was definitely anarchist and definitely multi-culti, which caused him to run afoul of a few people, and also caused all the major conflict RP that had recently been created around him and the Guardians. Ultimately, it is also what caused me to delete him. The conflict RP, although very interesting from a 3rd-party standpoint, was too much of a stretch for me. I wasn't comfortable with it. It made my playing time highly dissatisfying. And it made me too mad, too often. Over some silly game.
I was told that I need to step away from my character and not get mad over things my character gets mad over, but that's far easier said than done for me. I invest a lot of myself into my characters' personalities, so it's hard to separate the two. It's a flaw. Sue me.
I enjoyed most of the interactions I had with most of the characters, and I hope I did "old-school sprites" justice. I hope you were as entertained/annoyed with Woognit as I was. If you hated listening to him talk, imagine having to listen to everything he actually says! His speech patterns annoyed the heck out of me, all the time.
