Wall of Remembrance


This page is dedicated to the real people behind the characters—players who shared in the adventure with us but have since passed away in real life. Through friendships and rivalries alike, we formed bonds that went well beyond just a game. This page honors those who once walked the lands of Ferdarchi with us, not just as characters in the game, but as friends, family, and kindred spirits in both the digital and real worlds.

Though they are gone, they will not be forgotten.

Angelica the catfolk

“A great friend with a great personality. Her fishing skills were extraordinary and she could often be found at the beach, patiently helping a youngling learn to fish and cook. You are missed!” – Orchid


“She is a feline creature with black fur, emerald eyes and a flowing black mane. She is wearing a black silk cowl embellished with malachite beads, a wire halo, a silver plaque belt, a slinky, low-cut silk dress, and a pair of frost wolf fur slippers. She is wearing a pair of emerald drop earrings in her ears.”


“She is a feline creature with black fur, emerald eyes and a flowing black mane. She is surrounded by a faintly shimmering green field of force.

Lyza the centaur

“Lyza carefully extends her left foreleg as she kneels on her right, giving you a gentle hug before rising again.”


“She is a hybrid creature with a human torso on a black-coated equine body. She has amethyst eyes, long magenta hair and ivory skin. She has a tattoo of a shimmering silver dragon with its lavender wings draped open over her shoulders on her back. She is surrounded by a mantle of flickering black flames. She wavers and shifts blurrily. She is wearing a silver comb, a moonsilk bodice embroidered with a silver heart, and a set of four silver horseshoes.”


“A canvas oil painting that is framed with a wide, dark walnut frame carved with trailing ivy. The artist’s brushwork is gentle and layered, giving the scene a slightly blurred, dreamlike quality like a memory viewed through candlelight. Subtle textures in the paint catch the room’s natural glow, from the soft shimmer of flour on fair skin to the muted shine of silver hair beneath the braided strands.

At the center stands a hybrid figure: a woman from the waist up, her form rising from a strong, dappled grey-coated equine body. Her silver hair is loosely braided over one shoulder, catching the warm firelight and the cool gleam of starlight from the kitchen window. She leans slightly over the slate-topped counter, arranging a tray of fresh pastries with quiet care. A silver dragon tattoo stretches its wings across her back, partly visible beneath the fall of her hair. Her amethyst eyes are focused, yet kind, and a soft smile plays on her lips.

Gathered around her are apprentices and humble mages of all sorts: a gnome boy clutching a muffin with both hands, an eager elven girl reaching for a cinnamon twist, a rowan youth taking notes as she nibbles on a buttered roll, and a wide-eyed troll crouched low, cradling a glowing tart. An older troll mage leans in the doorway behind them, scroll forgotten, his gaze full of quiet appreciation.

The kitchen around them glows with layered light cressets flicker on the walls while starlight pours in from the northern window. Though the fireplace and oven lie dormant, the warmth in the painting is unmistakable: the warmth of kindness, of patient instruction, of comfort freely given. A small brass plaque is fixed to the bottom of the frame, worn to a soft shine from the touch of many hands. It is titled ‘The Nurturer'” – For Lyza, who fed the body and the spirit. We remember.

Ogma the creator

“Beware the clue-by-four.”


“He is a powerful, lumbering animal with thick shaggy fur and massive paws equipped with dangerous looking claws. He is wearing a pair of dark glasses, and a black silk tie. He is a bear and very very large compared to you.”


Ogma nudges the corpse.
Ogma says, ‘I have determined that it is all Gaborn’s fault.’
Mariabella says to Ogma in common, ‘Oh sure, blame the new guy.’
Ogma says, ‘Okay, it’s healed’
Mariabella says in common, ‘There are two’
Mariabella points at the second.
Ogma says, ‘Okay, that one’s healed too.’
Mariabella says in common, ‘Thank you bearman’
You exclaim in magic, ‘Thank you!’
Ogma growfs and wanders off.

“She is a typical being with gold eyes, wavy scarlet hair, and fair skin. She has a tattoo of a sinuous scarlet dragon twining on the wrist on her left arm. She wavers and shifts blurrily.

“A mysterious and sinister figure shrouded in a black silk hooded robe. The shadows of the cowl conceal the figure’s face and the voluminous folds of the garment conceal its form. It wavers and shifts blurrily. It is surrounded by a mantle of flickering scarlet flames. An intense scarlet four-pointed star glows brightly at the center of its chest. It is wearing a scarlet enameled comb, a white dragon leather belt with a mythril buckle, a necklace with a gold pentacle, a red bead, and a black bead, a black silk hooded robe, a scarlet dragon leather halter top, a pair of scarlet dragon leather trews, a pair of high-heeled scarlet dragon leather boots, and a pair of silver spurs.”
