Alejandro Benjázar, local Storyteller

[Loops]

Chapter defining PC tbhhhhh. Went out like a badass.

[Fabulous Secret Powers]

Alejandro was my favorite PC that I've seen on EFU so far, so his death hit pretty hard. I absolutely loved interacting with him on Bashir, and doing so was usually the highlight of the day for me as a player. Your dedication to the lore of the setting was so impressive that it made me interested in it more, myself, and I kind of wish I had invested in archaeology, because of that! I'm really interested in seeing what you do next!

I don't have a whole lot of non-spoilery screenshots of Alejandro, partially because there was a lot of ~lore~ and ~intrigue~ involved, and partially because I was genuinely so invested in the RP that I didn't want to stop for screenshots!

Screenies!

Between Eamon and Dio I had the most fun with Alejandro and he felt very human. Really awesome staple bard PC that brought the setting to life and very easy to RP with on a number of PCs tried and true. Good luck on the next!

Great job on this PC. Really iconic and setting defining!

[Ironside]

I appreciated your dedication to digging deep into the mysteries laying hidden out there.  Good job.

Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] Good. I'll get the company together here. Oh! And I had another question for you. Serious this time.
[Moonlighter] Lynneth: [Talk] [She lofts a brow.]
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] I'm not part of Alois' little coterie of hangers-on, dreaming of wooing and bedding him, and all that fine fluff. But you're a poet and one of our best. So.
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] [He folds his arms.] Who's next? After Edha.
[Moonlighter] Lynneth: [Talk] [She says immediately, and without hesitation.] Alejandro, by my eye.
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] ... I don't just mean of the poets. But that's still your answer?
[Moonlighter] Lynneth: [Talk] ... you know that he got a woman tried for treason for writing a joking riddle about the Sultan's rear end?
[Moonlighter] Lynneth: [Talk] If that is not Balladeer material, John, then what are we even doing here?
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] [He guffaws.] I did hear about that!
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] He's always... you know, his verses are... I READ this stuff. They're simple, folksy, though he's gotten more and more...
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] Well I'll tell the lad to work in some more inspiration. Goodness knows we need it these days.
Lyrist John Henry Beauregard: [Talk] Pfah! We'll do them both, then.

Dignified repose.


Nothing to see here, people.


Elias, I don't even know what's going on anymore.


ALEJANDRO YOU HAD ONE JOB

[Walrus Warwagon]

What can I say...
Great PC from the great player. He was an integral part of the chapter so far, storyteller within story.

Prelude is over.

I can't really find the words to express my admiration for this effort, so I'm reluctant to even try. Easily one of the best and most defining PCs this chapter -- so obviously that it hardly bears repeating. You took this PC very seriously in a way that I admire and also strive to do with mine. You allowed the character to develop organically in a way that should be a model to us all, and as a consequence you enhanced the quality of the chapter for everyone. Alejandro himself was wonderful, and funny, and sad, and intriguing, and thought-provoking, to watch and experience and read, as a literary creation. I have a ton of screenshots which maybe I will some day post. Also, as someone who had not interacted with you on previous PCs, thank you also for just being a cool and nice player.

Thanks for all of this -- exactly the kind of effort that makes EfU magical.

An Absolutely amazing PC, despite so many meetings and chats I still wish I'd gotten to spend more time with him.

Buenas noches, dulce príncipe.
