Well, I won't be coming back to SoD.
I have been told that Cham was given away by Aratar despite him, hodge/podge and melwin were only supposed to use him to buff in raids.
So Cham stays with his current owner.
I have no desire to spend another year gearing and AAing a character to meet what Cham was when I left him.
When you spend four years not just playing but living a character is isn't the same.
Best of luck in all your adventures.
