[@Prince of Seraphs] He's not gone, but he has not been online for over half a month and has not posted IC for almost one month. I am doing this just to keep his character with us while we advance through the story as we go forward. The NPC status will be temporary; I feel I can represent his character well from what we have discussed in private. I have seen far too many RP's die due to situations like this. I am considering opening up the RP for one or two more people regardless of this, however. I may make an update to the Interest Check in the coming days. If you have an additional friends who may be interested in this RP let them know to contact me.
