I haven't got all that emotionally attached to what happens TO Gwynn yet, but just like me in real life, I get really very annoyed at what happens (or is percieved to happen) to the people I care about.

I got a little too emotionally attached to Daelar when he was Guildmaster of the Cabalists, and in the end when I was toppled it was almost a freeing feeling, like bursting out of the water after drowning.

I'm a soppy kind of guy though, the kind that cries in movies (and even when reading books). I've just not really had all that much reason to get too attached to my Mud Characters, as yet.

I got emotionally attached to Van, after spending 125 days, it could get kind of emotional, though I never went to the point of crying or something similar to that, just anger a lot of times.

Silvanus I've gotten somewhat angry, enough angry to go over to Aetolia and vent.

In the time before Lusternia, when I fought on Imperian, I would literally shake. Not sure exactly why, but I didn't have anything but aliases and my fingers, and when I went up against people with systems, knowing I had a 20:1 chance, it just...adrenalined me.

I used to shake when going into a fight... about 5 years ago These days I try to deal with groups of 5 and don't feel much of anything, but every once in awhile I find it really funny when people tell me they're shaking and I remember what it's like

In Achaea, when two people were intent on killing my character (they sent me tells and letters saying that they would kill me) for helping defend against a raid in which I got the last hit on both of them. In the end, I decided to send my character out and face them. I kind of felt for him, like it was just walking to my own execution.

Oh, also in Achaea, when I took a novice bashing with me, someone popped in to take revenge. I thought the novice would die, so I kind of felt bad about that.

Just goes to show, bad things happen when you betray Me!

As a God, you have to distance yourself heavily from your character, think of things first from an OOC perspective. This is mainly due to the fact that your character isn't for your benefit, it's for the benefit of the game. There are a number of situations where bad things have to happen to them (in fact, a lot of the time it has to be you doing them) for the good of the game, for example Sartan having a mountain dropped on him so Mhaldor could be founded.

My character in Achaea has gone through really really sad times, it makes me sad too...
He had an incredible mom, very caring and loving, and although he showed his love back for her, it wasn't as great as the love his mom had for him... and then later she was outguilded for speaking her mind, then she was divorced, then she got a new boyfriend and spent 50 credits to get something preserved and the next day he divorced her... and slowly it went downhill from there, until one day she was...gone. I just feel so depressed now when I return to those realms, regretful and guilty I didn't do anything more... sorry for my character and his mom, angry at the people who were a factor that led to it. *sigh* It's been a long time already, a lot of time to heal, but the regrets never go away. I try not to get too attached to anyone in MUDs anymore

Oh heck yes!
I put feeling into everything to do.
Usually I run away from my computer laughing my butt off though..
I do feel Sad for Kitsunei as well. Lately I've been feeling depressed ,and the fact that she has no money right now, doesn't help at all..Cause then I get to be depressed her, and there..
...Yeah
