About them: Stephen is a former neurosurgeon turned sorcerer turned snowbo. He's very self-involved and arrogant, but he can also be quite noble and self sacrificing when the wellbeing of others is threatened. Also, the cloak he wears is an animate, sentient relic that tends to get overprotective of him. Lately he is kind of a mess; he was already suffering from PTSD due to events from canon and has been sleeping very little since his arrival in Norfinbury some IC weeks ago. A few IC days ago he allowed himself to be killed by an anomaly in order to avoid losing Norfinbury's one microscope and in the hopes that the revival process would heal the nerve damage in his hands. He was not healed and he is having a hard time dealing with that. Also, he has been saddled with a death price that renders him unable to recognize people by either names or appearances.
Current plans: Stephen is meeting up with Claire in order to be with someone he trusts while his death price is in effect; prior to dying he'd meant to stash the microscope somewhere in Res 2 and then make his way to the Industrial Zone to explore. He did drop the microscope off (...I do need to add it to the player-updated item list in one of the houses he's visited), but explorations are on hold for the moment. He's liable to be quieter than usual on the network, as he's trying to avoid tipping anyone off that he'd be an easy mark right now. I do have vague plans for him to offer guided meditation recordings on the network to try to improve everyone's mental health in general; I may time that to go up soon after his death price wears off (date undecided as yet), as his relatively low network activity and inability to make much sense out of reading over network backlogs will mean he has a lot of time on his hands for making those recordings offline.
Desired CR: I'm having fun with Stephen dancing around his inability to recognize anyone and I'd be super into him dealing with more problems from that while it lasts. Beyond that I'm still up for just seeing how things develop naturally.
Not looking for: I should probably wait a while before killing Stephen again, too. Other info:
