Sadly, looking closer at the obituary I found, it looks like Parallax's parents both pre-deceased him, and he was only survived by some aunts and an uncle (all unnamed in the obit), and that was 5 years ago. Unless anyone was close enough to Parallax to know something of his extended family (or maybe could find the family through a facebook page?), that might be a dead end. |

Just want to update that my payment cleared, and managed to catch about 3 hours of the closing stream they did yesterday as well (really needed to sort out their zoom voice levels as it was peaking something shocking) , so we're good for 2 statues with Vex's confirm as well.
For those that didn't manage to catch the stream or check kickstarter in the closing minutes, they added a mystery add on for 700 yen for an add on game in the development, separate to Eiyuden but treated as a pre-release to see some characters before that releases.
Also Ninja's D & B I believe cleared for the game, D through votes and B due to secondary love. _________________

Thanks Shrew for checking -- I guess we can just do what we want with Parallax in that case, although I don't think we want to call him by his real life full name. For now I have no idea what sort of info we are allowed to include with the statue, so we can just toss around ideas and see what can be realized.
I sent an e-mail to Frank's dad -- he really has a nice memorial site with a lot of updates for sure. He must really be hurting, so I hope this initiative brings him some consolation.
Thanks Fly for your contribution as well! Hopefully I can get Suikox's social media accounts rolling so we can collect some donations for you. |

If I am not mistaken, Boogeyman was Parallax's closest IRL friend on the forum. Perhaps somebody can get in touch with him? _________________

What a neat tribute! I'd be happy to contribute $100 for the fundraiser. Is it still best to send $ to paypal.me/suikox? _________________ A not unblack dog was chasing a not unsmall rabbit across a not ungreen field. |

For now it would be better if you can contribute to fly' account -- he basically fronted cash for the entire statue himself. For me, I already have around $1300 covered.
Thanks!! |

Gotcha. Would you please post a link to Fly's account? I read through the thread and was looking for it, but I may have missed it. _________________ A not unblack dog was chasing a not unsmall rabbit across a not ungreen field. |

Hmm, I thought Fly had some link available -- Fly, can you post a link so Pierrot Le Fou can send you contributions? |

I will stress; I am in no way shape or form expecting any re-numeration for what I have done here, in truth, I was actually going to remove my paypal since I have no use for it myself.
Whilst this is very much appreciated, do not at all feel obliged to do so. _________________

Good! Thanks Pierrot for your help and I am glad Fly is getting some assistance getting out of the temporary financial hole.
On another note, I haven't heard back from Red's father -- thus we may need to think of a way to commemorate him without using his real name or his likehood.
I suppose it is fairly simple to use his avatar image... which would make him into a cat mage.
Do we have any idea how Parallax was suppose to look like in the Suikox world?? |

You're welcome. I'm glad I could grab a shovel and help out with the financial hole.
I think for Red, the cat mage would suit well. I don't know what would be appropriate for Parallax, but I'll try to reach out to Suikox members who might have known him better to see what they think about that. _________________ A not unblack dog was chasing a not unsmall rabbit across a not ungreen field. |

I know we had some threads way back when where we described our Avatar. I'll snoop around and see if i can find any of those. We also had some personal information threads where we told a little about ourselves in real life. Possibly some info on Parallax there as well. _________________

Unfortunately, I cannot remember anything regarding Parallax's character, but Red's avatar depicted his character based on his description.
