The Evolution of a Look- Lemur Lad


Lemur Lad

 

Posted

This was a post I was planning to write before the big news, but I thought it was as appropriate a way of showing some of my feelings about the game as anything.

Lemur Lad wasn't my first character, but he quickly became my favorite, and was my first 50. I've always been proud of his look, and been very careful about making improvements over the years.

Here's a recreation of LL at the beginning.

And from the back.







He's changed a lot over the years. Real Goggles, a true fur pelt, a moving tail, and the backpack that was always there in my imagination.

And here's a photo of an actual lemur for comparison.

Nice look. And before the lights go out, I'd like to thank you for a long ago thing you did. I was still pretty much a newbie to the game, and didn't know you could get ambushed while talking to a contact. I was too used to single player games that freeze during dialogue. I came out of dialogue to find myself surrounded and being pounded, at a time when dying still had consequences.

You came to my side and wiped out the ambush. I thanked you for your help, and you said something breezy like 'any time'. Your name stuck with me, because I thought it was a really interesting one. I have been helped by many players, and helped others in return, but you were the first one to show me what a great, open-hearted community this was. Thanks for rescuing a newbie empath trying to solo.

Thank you, that made me smile on what has been a rough weekend. I don't remember it specifically, but I've done that several times.
