One of my closest fiends, Stephanie Lauren Cox, the basis for Fray, died last night at 30. I am at a complete loss. She loved the band Saves the Day, which is why all her character's special moves were named after Saves the Day songs.

She was an amazing person. She lit up every room she was in with her infectious personality. She was sunny and dark at the same time. She gave me so much free coffee when she worked at her dad's coffee shop in downtown Burlington. When her dad died, we were there for each other because we'd both lost our fathers to cancer.

Last year I helped her when she was moving out and away from an abusive boyfriend. She made me feel important. She made me feel strong.

Way back, Stephanie criticized the design I went with for her character because she dyed her hair brown for like a year. The brown hair just looked way better for her character design. She was a blonde for most of the time I knew her.

She had a one-of-a-kind perspective on life that can't be matched. Her death is a tragic, pointless loss that I can't figure out how to come back from.

Every time you play as Fray, remember she is based on a real, beautiful, wonderful person that left this world too soon. I've never regretted making her a bad guy more than I do today.





Goodbye, Stephanie.

To me you are the light from a light bulb that breaks sometimes
And the tender warmth inside is released into my life
And it smothers me in flames that lick and scorch my face.
As the smoke reaches the sky know I'm burning tonight.

My most sincere condolences. She really seems like she was an amazing, cheerful person, and she looks so young. ):

I hope she's in a better place now, maybe with her father.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I have been heartbroken all day. Sorry if the first post seemed kind of scattershot, I was very drunk.

Sorry to hear about your loss Sean. May Steph/Fray rest in peace, and may her soul have a smooth and peaceful transition.
My sincere condolences goes to you, her family and friends.

May her memories be kept in a positive light, and remember that you also made her a legacy within Mugen of all places. Makes playing Fray even more powerful now. Always one of the best SHADES characters IMO.

Man that sucks. I just turned 30 myself December 24th. She sounds like an amazing friend and I'm sorry for your loss. Maybe have Fray redeem herself in the story somehow. A turn to the light would symbolize her darkness turning to the light. Darkness doesn't necessarily mean evil after all. She will be missed.

..damn, she was way too young to die. My utmost heartful condolences, Sean. Hope she's in a better place now. As all said before me, remember you're not alone. We all are here with you. Take your time to digest the event. She was a light for you, do your best to keep it alive.  May she rest in peace.

May she rest in peace; life isnt allowing anyone to experience old age.
So many people are dying at a rapid rate.
Slow and steady wins the race, but there is a darkness... growing inside of me...

And if you provoke it...

I will slay you all.
