View Full Version : Dead End with this Character (Permakill anyone?)

Ello,

For several years now I've been stuck with Ashla Rose Icebreaker's development. She used to be an entirely different character than she is now, and now I just... don't see her having any future growth.

Like, she's currently going through a redemption arc for her previous fling as a gritty anti-villian. However, she's literally wanted everywhere in Althanas aside one or two small tiny on the map. Her entire character arc is nothing but broody emopool angstfest and I don't have any end goal or desire to continue her story minus nostalgia (she was my first character ever on Althy.) I've written her into a corner and I neither see or even want a way out.

Still wanting at least 00.01% of her life to be happy, I'd say she's at a good place for her closure. She's currently hiding out with a dysfunctional but loving family, is at good terms with most of her living loved ones, she knows her daughter is safe, and Lye's death is just around the corner. And I have plans for threads with Black Shadow and Elthas, but once I get those, all other current threads, and Lye's death by millions of rivals ganging up on him out of the way, I'd say she's at a good place to bite the dust.

Maybe she could die in the Lye arc (if that's still a thing), it would be fitting. But maybe she won't. I do want her to have some good final moments with Felicity (I will be passing a lot of Ashla's equipment onto Felicity); but I think I'm ready to say bye-byes to Ashla and make Flamebird my new main.

So... yeah.

Since it is super hard to kill Ashla (unless you're in the Citadel, despite the fact that she could literally kill you in five seconds by freezing your blood and making it explode), any death suggestions?

Mountaineering accident. Rocks fall, everyone dies.

(Or you could leave her alive and not play her — just in case you realize you got an idea for her later.)

We could easily work her death into the Dour Garrison escape. It could be a grand last stand.

The troupe could erase her from history if you were really desperate :P

Thanks for the replies,

A rock slide would be so random, Fenn xD
I want Ashla's death to tie in with her greater story, so I don't think the Dour Garrison escape is the place for it. Thank you though, Breaker :)

Well, I'm not that desperate, Duffy, lol! I do want Ashla to leave a mark on Felicity still.

I've always thought it would be neat for Ashla and Amari to interact. If the death was pulled off nicely it could be done. You don't have to though if you don't want to.



Definitely want Felicity to be there when Ashla kicks the bucket. Ashla would likely be in Scara Brae when it happens. Hmm...

Thank you guys again :)
- Ashla.

Black Shadow and Ashla have that thread to do. Shadow is contracted to kill Ashla under an alias he doesn't know her by. He is sent with another archer to do the job. Black Shadow realizes that it is Ashla, but can't call of the mission in time, the other archer gets het. He hits her where it's not fatal but has poison arrows. Shadow kills the other assassin, and talks with Ashla, she dies with him holding her, Felicity watching

I still would hate to see Ashla die permanently, but if that is what you wish then so be it!

Valino isn't the type to kill you but he is the type to try futility to save you.

Ashla's time has come, Shadow :( :/ Sounds like a neat thread idea either way.

Death was the request, Preacher... Hey, that rhymes xD But thank you :)
