Atto is not dead. He has just gotten stuck, and has become uninteresting for me to keep playing him. He is semi-retired, that is, with a remote chance of me bringing him back someday.
Atto was meant to be some sort of mix of Tony Stark and Nikola Tesla, giving all the proportions of the setting of EFU:R. I feel like I failed horribly on that part, for he has become widely known as a merchant and trouble maker, rather than anything near a high tech inventor. I initially portrayed him as a rich playboy, owner of lucrative businesses, and since PCs start dead poor, I had to make money. And a lot of it. So, I started on day one with a loan of 1k, and made up to nearly 30k in gold, plus all the stock, only merchanting. Sadly that gave him the Merchant label, and I was never truly able to use that gold for things like building a workshop, or having cool inventions made, as a combat suit for instance.
Although he spent most of his time doing paperwork, cataloging stuff, and making money, I got into some action with him occasionally, and I had a lot of fun with him for a time. Here are some screenies:

In case anyone wondered about his name, it has relation to the legendary "Montgomery Proverson" from second chapter, but the relation is minor. Here's the part of the background that mentions it, from my PCN.

not engineer but merchant?
I blame the name and his brother
ohh :(
really gave lower stability and nice events for some time. was glad for our many encounters and RP.
dude, awesome character. can't wait for your next one. :)
I save you and you just go and end it, pshaw for shame. How will you keep up his legacy!
None the less, great pc.
Get Atto's ass back in the game right now, dammit!
Damn, I was hoping for some more confrontations! We had a great character relationship that I was really looking forward to playing out.
Atto was an awesome character, elusive and enigmatic while still being so well known and public.
