Having given it much thought, I have decided to let Madeline LaRue pass into retirement. The DM team have been considerate enough to afford me the opportunity to see her off. While she is certainly not dead and may still be seen from time to time (maybe!) I will no longer be at the controls as it were.

I think I will be taking a break for awhile while I think up something for the future. But it was a DELIGHT to have been able to interact with so many of you. EFU truly is an amazing place where the interactions of many can impact your PC so much.
Now, the few screenshots I have of Madam LaRue.
Simply fantastic. I have no words to describe how in awe I am of LaRue, or how wonderful a character I think she is and how well played she was at all times.
Congratulations for creating such a magical, deep and complete character and thank you for allowing her to be such an inspiration.
Wow
Wow... just, wow. Bravo.
Amazing
I love you
The enigma deepens...
Brilliant PC...
I thought she had a history MUCH longer than December 2009...
And Budgies said it all perfectly...
An incredible character.
She truly felt like a part of Ymph and probably was. (I only ever touched on the briefest of her workings.)
..... damnit.
AWW MAN~!
Wowz. I hope you enjoyed the great times we had with this character as much as I did, on many occasions - legendary baby.
Wait! Screens comin!
We just hooked up. :( So sad...
From what little I saw of Madam LaRue she was an awesome character.
I never got to interact with LaRue to any degree that I was happy with. I'm sad I've missed the opportunity to do so.
LaRue was A grade material, not some Japanese knock-off.
Bravo Zulu Hippie,..Bravo Zulu
LaRue was a pleasure to play with, I'm glad I had the opportunity. Thankyou.
Congratulations on such a fantastic PC... she will long be considered an integral part of the island I imagine.
Oh, man.
A fantastic character, an integral part of nature, mysticism and everything in between. Interacted with you on quite a few characters, and loved every second. Definitely a prominent PC for many; I know she was one for me.
An amazing character, I enjoyed all of my interactions with her.
A living legend on the island. I had many interactions with her with a number of different characters, all of which I found deeply satisfying. If Leged was somehow EfU: A's Fëanor, Madame LaRue was the server's Gandalf.
my first char on efu m was a pissant fool but after meeting you he choose to follow you even if their ideals clashed. A great character :)
Very cool indeed!
I'm sad to read she's retired, but she was awesome to play together with when I did. =]
Beyond a doubt one of the most ambient and coolest characters on the server since I returned. Every time we interacted, LaRue hinted at such amazing depths of knowledge and wisdom - leaving me awestruck every time. Sure isn't going to be the same walking around the wilds now, without you to bump into.
HMMMMMM...

WIll miss her... was awesome to have her at my side for some memoriable events... And I've learned much from her... both as a character and as a player. SHe will be missed by myself and Niven (especially since Niven and Larue had similiar views of Balance and allowing each to follow their own path)
Well played
From a place far, far away, I take off my hat and bow my head to you, sir, thanking for the truly outstanding, magical and breathtaking moments we had together, on multiple PC's.
Had that one nature walk with LaRue, had a really great time, enjoyed that single encounter.
More LaRue memories... - pics during my time on two of my characters that met LaRue.
Brunch with LaRue in the Old City - My first visit to the place since EfU:A came into being. Thanks to LaRue.

A little late to the retirement party... but Dagul loved her.
Yeah I was away when this was posted. LaRue was fantastic. Loved cruisin' with her and Jubari. You'll have to tell me about her end sometime.
