Fall of Truth Remembrance Raid Friday March 23rd for FlirtyBratt

[MeliCat]

We would like to run a Fall of Truth raid in memory of FlirtyBratt

Please message me if you would like to come and remember Bratt

Friday 23rd March
7pm EST Flagging
9pm EST Fall of Truth raid

We may end up with multiple raid parties - we'll all try to start them all at the same time. Difficulty to be decided by the party.




Bratt who left us at the start of the weekend was a much loved member of the Khyber reaper raiding and reaper questing scene. One half of the BrattyTop raiding experience (see the achievements forum), she could lead a raid with one tenth of the words and directions that Poppy did. She had a reserved laugh in pug parties, a wicked laugh on occasion in Discord, and then there were the times we heard silence as she muted herself and Poppy assured us that she was helpless with laughter.

Her thrower was deadly, and her sneak builds also. She greatly enjoyed many facets of DDO and hanging out with many of us here who amused, distracted, challenged and supported her.



We will miss her. A lot.



If you would like to post stories about times you ran with Bratt and what you remember about her in this thread it would help us say good bye

I love the way she used to greet me. Even during some alcohol filled runs, she would just laugh and keep the quest/raid going. I had a few one liners that would cause her to laugh, and laugh. Even Poppy would laugh. I made it a thing that I would try to say something that would get her howling to the detriment of her toon. Gonna miss you FlirtyBratt. I will always keep you in my heart.

To upset to think clearly at the moment

In case anybody wants to know, Mel has my full approval, consent, blessing, encouragement, and just about every other positive thing behind organizing these. I am very glad that she is doing this, I'm too much of a mess right now to do such.

I'll be there to help with the flagging and the raiding tho.

Miss her dearly.

Ty again Mel. Bratty and I have been blessed with some of the best friends possible on this server.

I never had the opportunity to run with you guys, but the love & respect of those who's lives she touched show without doubt that the gaming family lost a great person.

Deepest condolences.

Reminder this is on this Friday night 9pm EST.

Flagging from 7pm EST if you need it. Be warned of that update some years back that reset flagging for FoT - please check picking up the raidcearly if you havent checked recently.

It will be a fairly relaxed run - Bratt was into making people feel comfortable. We're doing this to honour her and remember her.

Hearing about Flirty was really unexpected and distressing. She was such a lovely, kind, calm, patient, fair-minded and sensible person. It's just so rare to meet someone that fundamentally decent and good, and so terrible to lose one.

Apart from that, she was also a very capable endgame player and great fixture of the community as someone who led and taught raids and filled crucial positions in them. Over the years I ran with her, I never saw her treat even one person badly or ever heard anyone speak ill of her either, which says so much given how easy it is to get involved in meaningless squabbles.

Really sad and terrible news, and my heart goes out to those people who were particularly close to her as they try to get through this.

Thanks.

When Christy (Flirty) was in EOS (Before she joined LD) with me I logged on 1 day to find that she was anon. I asked her why she was anon and now after all these years I can finaly say what her answer was:-

I'm avoiding Poppy she said

Sorry Poppy but its true and I never told you as it was our secret

[Myraktar]

I'll be there on Friday (Chakari or Iprin or Jasyra), and maybe Brunah

We really love playing DDO, and a large part of why is because of the truly kind people who play this game. Christy (mostly Flirtybratt for us) was one of the best, and I have tears in my eyes as I write this.

Her characters were super-good, but she never made you feel like she was better. She would just pick up the slack and make everyone feel like a contributor. The best part is that all of this would be done in the background, while she kept up a friendly (and helpful) chat with everyone.

We'll really miss her,
Chakari & Brunah

Wow to say the least. I am glad I got to know Christy. She was a sweetie and an excellent player. She is slaying dragons in heaven now. My prayers go out to Poppy and all her family. We will miss her.

I miss you so much Flirty.
We had a turn out of 53 people who were able to make the raids, and I have gotten tells from many saying that they were sad that they couldn't make it.



Thank you everyone, love the community here.
