Rest in Peace GM Cyclone / Robotech_Master

[Jimmy]

Hello all,

 

Unfortunately one of our own, @GM Cyclone, also known as @Robotech_Master, was the victim of a tragic hit-and-run accident late last week. He had been receiving treatment over the past few days, but unfortunately he passed away this morning.

 

Cyclone was a tireless contributor to the community, both through his time spent as a Game Master and the countless guides he'd written. He will be sorely missed.

 

A memorial has been set up in Ouroboros on Torchbearer, his home server, for those who wish to pay their respects.

[GM Kal]

2020 is terrible.
 

Cyclone started as a GM just after me. So so many times I posted his helpful guides to players. He really loved this game.

I can only hope he didn't suffer after the accident. From the sound of the accident he just... was not there from the moment of impact. I'm at least thankful for that.
He originally wanted to be GM Mospeada, but I totally busted him to Cipher for copyright before he started  
I was really looking forward to him watching the new Mospeada anime that hasn't come out yet, but I guess he won't be able to see it now. Damn his obsession with bikes. I just wish they were as armored as the "Cyclone" ones in the show he loved.

He did so much both as a player and a GM. He will be greatly missed by me and all of the community. I'm glad his writings and guides are still helping people.

Please check out his works and guides. It made him happy every time they helped someone.

My condolences to his friends and family. As someone who lost someone close to them to a drunk driver I know this kind of loss to be sudden and painful. God Bless you and be with you.

[EmmySky]

A helpful, friendly player and a great GM, he'll be missed by many.

[Conviction]

We, both the community and the GM team, have lost a valuable member. I don’t really have the words to express why but, we all know it by the work he put in to help members both as a player and as a GM.

 

RIP Cyclone.

So sorry to hear this. He will be missed deeply. I wish I knew him more, he will love (live on is what I meant, but that works also) through his guides and people's memories of him. And maybe a memorial in game?

I'll miss my friend.  Take care of yourselves everyone.

This is tragic. RM brought so much to this game and this community. 

 

Rest in peace.

[GM Crumpet]

A very dear friend has passed too soon. I'll miss you brother hero 😢 

[Ulysses Dare]

I never played with R_M, only chatted with him here on the forums once or twice. But his guides were, and still are, an invaluable resource. The quality of care—and love of the game—that he put into each of them was outstanding.

[Bionic_Flea]

Damn.  I had read of his tragic accident and was hoping and praying that he would see it through.  Rest well, my friend.

Anyone know of a character he played? His favorite CoX Zone? I think that could make a fitting tribute.

I hope this is taken in the spirit it's meant, perhaps a new Memorial NPC a la Ascendant & Luna etc? Paragon Dance Party could do with a presence. Yeah, I know, too soon, but your mind races around when you hear these things.

 

Edit.  Was writing and posting when the above appeared.  Crossed over there.

He helped me in so many ways. I can't describe how much I'm going to miss him. Rest in Peace my Friend.

[GM Kal]

He was always on Torchbearer with his player account handing out Influence and Superpacks as gifts to new players like mad. He always loved getting new players going.

[Arcanum]

Thanks to you, new heroes rise in this city; with your voice and guides to show them the way.

 

Thanks to you, Paragon is in good hands.

Your time on patrol has come to an end; rest well, friend. Thank you.

Upon finding homecoming and coming back to CoH, Robo was one of the first new friends I'd made. I'm so glad now that I had the pleasure of playing with him. He was without a doubt one of the most helpful and generous players. I'll never forget him supplying everyone on the team with money for a Team Transport Power who didn't already have one, so we could complete our Dr. Q TF with speed and ease.

 

Rest in Peace Robo... you will live on in our memories and hearts.

[Bishamon]

I'd known him for years and years going back to the old City_of_Heroes Livejournal community days, he was always as helpful as he'd been here on Homecoming. This is such a dang tragedy. SUCH a tragedy. Rest in peace, Chris. You will be forever missed.

[AmpGuile]

So tragic. My condolences to his family and all who knew him. 

[GM GoodNyght]

This is such unhappy news.  GM Cyclone / Robotech_Master loved COH and contributed so much to the game and this community, both as player and GM
He will be sorely missed.   My heartfelt condolences go out to his family and friends.   /em holdtorch
