I know this is over two weeks old but I had a response and never got it out. Personally; I feel that when you get to that point you've got one of two things...
You either invest fully in their life and story (assuming you haven't already), or you slowly lose interest. There are perks to either, even the latter despite how it sounds. Primarily if you decide to invest fully you provide yourself with the opportunity to pursue avenues that are otherwise unavailable to most storytelling. Settling down, having a family, doing all those little things you see great writers do and ask yourself, "Why haven't I done this?" It's honestly a brilliant yet simple pleasure but it's not for everyone... Especially when those you're involved with have other interests or do things that you feel break the fabric of your character and because we've become so attached that can affect us emotionally.
So we get the second option, to simply allow ourselves to 'fall out of love' with our characters. That's great too because it can parallel retirement and builds suspense to the unwinding or even unraveling of plots and storylines. Those who view your character as their great rival might finally gain the upper hand or if you're the hero you might falter in the face of those you've beaten back many times before.
TL;DR Level 100 isn't a destination, it's a fork in the road.
