Retirement

[Perth]

So, I've just gained the privilege of playing four nobles at once.

I have one noble who I retired back of this, and she appears on my account page like this:

Retired Characters / Family Graveyard

Character     Age     retired on     Prestige     Honour
Loreldine   32   2010-07-06   ?   ?
Loreldine   ?   2010-07-05   ?   ?


What does this mean, for one? Two, I think I want to bring her back, can I? If so, how? I cannot seem to figure it out. I do have the create new noble option, but do I not have the option to bring this one out of retirement?

Afraid not. Before the current system, retiring was deleting.

I think (?) it looks like that because a back-record was not kept of the honour/prestige that all characters had, so there is no data to plug in there.

You are pretty much asking a dead man to come back to the living world. It says retired characters but it also says a graveyard. But you can forget about the retired part and just go with the graveyard part. In the world of BM, they bury retired people ALIVE :)

"Retire" is the IG way of saying "delete character."

When you've deleted something, can you usually get it back?

[fodder]

depends XD

would be interesting if retiree can do something for the family in the background (before eventual death.. somewhat based on age)

as a way to encourage old chars to move on. obviously a 20 yr old retiree with zip h/p won't do much

I see, I see. I had just assumed retired meant retired. Not deleted.

No problem.
