Well i must say, what an amazing run, unfortunately i can't do screen shots, so this may sound weird, if you have any please post them.
I gotta thank all those involved with frums conquest for world domination and of course all those against him, i doubt ill be able to top him, but ill try, so again thank you very much for all those involved,
players and Dm's alike, for making a mere merchant have some of the best times and most fun, ive ever had on a roleplay server.
Yours Faithfully
The late Frum Highill

Forget you have a 70k item to teleport you to your own plane?

I will say I really thought the machinations of Frum were excellent. Great way to play off your alignment and motives.

Frum is gone?
Man, it seems everytime my character's start to make some inroads with plots, those characters die.
Sad to see Frum gone.

Just about all of my characters have had contact with Frum, whether my Banite was plotting to kill you and seize your fortune to form a mini-Zhentarim to Lucius scrambling to weave a web of propaganda and payoffs to get his fellow cultists elected to Mulciber <spoiler spoiler spoiler>. Frum was a success as a villian in that he amassed a huge fortune (I've heard upwards of 100k!) and was a major player in one of the server's more productive evil factions, all the while seeming like nothing more than a (rather grouchy) merchant.
Well done on your part. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with next.

I rarely do this, but I just want to pop in and say you should be really proud of Frum. Most of the playerbase may have just known him as a polite halfling merchant, but from the perspective of a DM his accomplishments were very impressive. I really liked the progression of this long lived character. Kudos to you.

Having seen Frum as a merchant and also some of one or two of his.. other sides. The server has lost a large chunk of awesomeness.
Well done badcompany, played through and through

One of the deepest and most intriguing characters ever played in an RPG, Frum Highill was a mystery that has only just recently began to open up to me OOCly. What an awesome character, and what an awesome player!
:( I forgive you for not capitalizing properly.

Though at times a bit rocky (I'll always regret the 3 weeks of our shared Council Term that you were away) Frum managed to be a character with so many sides to him that even still, I am positive a lot of secrets died with him. As LTS said, your RP more than makes up for your typing ;)
Looking forward to your next character!

For a long period, I always considered Frum Highill to be the most basic of characters, merely replacing NPC merchants and not doing much else -- But I was fortunate enough to find out later that Frum goes much, much deeper than that, much deeper than anyone has ever expected. There probably wasn't a single plot in the server he wasn't (in)directly involved in, and knew how to influince through various means and channels. Truely, a character that has probably shaped the server more than any have before you.
The Highill Emporium will always live on in our memory. And Sanctuary owes much, so much to you. I seem to hear rumours of the Council having monetairy problems? That should be solved once they confisquate your bank-account. :D

I sold stuff to Frum like most did, but I believe we were different time zones. Even though I hardly knew him, I do know he was a server icon who made a difference. Good job...acually damn good if you have the Howland stamp of approval XD

Wow, poor Frum. I still remember when Frum first began his small little empire, from those first few weeks in the Rock Bottom, to his descent into darkness. As Melrick I tried to bring Frum over to the dark side, and we spied on each other, and after Melrick's death Frum made "the deal" of a lifetime. As Thazar I tried to work with Frum to sell my wares because no one would buy things from a Red Wizard. As Delorin we plotted together and got rid of a mutual enemy - which in turn ended up sealing Delorin's fate as well.
All of my characters have interacted with Frum both directly and indirectly in some way. I don't think people will ever know the "true" Frum Highill. Few knew the amount of power such a small little creature could bring to bare against them, or the depths of his plots and mechanizations. I honestly do not know how he pulled it all off and still managed to live as long as he did.
A character well played, and a server icon forever gone. I hope your next character is as memorable.

Plotting wth Frum from the start and throughout his career with various concepts and characters of mine, I must say he's been a persistant and awesome little halfling. Much cred for you, my mate.

Frum was a great character. He personified merchant for the server, and gained to my understanding quite appropriate level of power for his richness.
Wyric knew him better only during the last council period, and it did help to learn some more interesting aspects of him. He was a fun and interesting character to interact with.
Too bad he had to go, but all good must come to an end at some point, I suppose. Didn't imagine he would go out this way.
Who will be the new merchant prince of the Sanctuary?!

gotta hand it to you for achieving your character levels though NEVER QUESTING, but only through the RP that occured through the mercantile and other endeavors.
.....not like he COULD quest if he wanted to since he was always like 500lbs over his max anyway. :)
