It doesn't have to end simply because...hm, well, that almost got mean.
I'm sure a few people around here are capable of coming up with opponents and scenarios to sustain the rp.

For the moment, we should be good with character interactions while working on the means to build a thread off of what was proposed to be a thread made by the players. In a sense, [i]nothing[/i] has changed other than loosing an npc and the person who brought us together.

I'll try to brainstorm a few suggestions, if people would be okay with possible conflict between groups or the establishment of hostile npc factions (Blah blah ancient drow cultists and their abominations, for example). It would help to have a roll call of [i]active[/i] members, but I imagine people have lives that make these crucial moments a bit difficult to manage.

So, again, for now, I suggest we proceed with 'business as usual' and try to agree on event arches.

Any thoughts?
