That sucks. I really, really don't get what most people do in this game: so you create account, set up birth, then forget? Better yet, play for a time and then leave it to starve? Oh well...
I wouldn't be surprised if the player decided he didn't want the character because of its stats, race or lack of magic ability.
But, my character has a second kid now. A girl, and she has already posted an rp.
