Why you think they deserve the spotlight: They're friendly and welcoming. Fairly active posters as well, with an interesting cast of characters.

Spotlight Character: Virgil Drakenhardt

Why you think they deserve the spotlight: As Kada said, "He's every bit the little shit a Drakenhardt should be."

Spotlight Plot: TBA

Spotlight Member: @Keen
Why you think they deserve the spotlight: I think Keen is a fantastic RPer, a fun person to talk to, and generally a great part of the community.

Spotlight Character: Seregaza "Gaza"
Why you think they deserve the spotlight: Gaza is hilarious and adorable. Boop has really solidified the concept of a brand new entity, popped fresh out of the ground. And being an honest pickpocket is a hilarious combination.

Spotlight Plot: Baaaaa-d Relationship
Explain the plot in a paragraph for those who aren't familiar: While her sister Brigid threw herself into working, Ariel got swept up by a charming man who turned out to be a monster. The sheltered Catholic girl found herself in a nightmare scenario, a sheep being preyed upon by a wolf.

♦ Be good, Don't cause trouble - MATURE
♦ It's not my fault - MATURE
♦ I Couldn't Protect You
♦ Where is She? - MATURE
♦ The End - MATURE, ONGOING
♦ Ariel's Reports
Why you think it deserves the spotlight: This plot tackles a heavy topic, but does so in a way that is both well thought out and well executed. It opens up so many opportunities for all the characters involved to grow and change while also being a starting point for many other plots down the road.

Why you think they deserve the spotlight: Despite a few bumps in the road, I think WD is a great contribution to the forum. He tries and he plots with as many people as he can. He's constantly around the Cbox/ICC and very friendly OOC to the people around him. Definitely deserving of a little love.

Spotlight Character: Sean O'Cermait

Why you think they deserve the spotlight: I just really love Sean as a character. For one, and this is important to him, his sexuality doesn't define him. He's a quit-thinking, petty criminal scribe God who likes to lie just because. He has problems with vulnerability and romance, and also, both his domains are a kind of the opposite. One is order, the other is basically chaos. Yet, rather than having them conflict, @Boop has found an interesting way that they could work in harmony and create something truly unique.

Spotlight Plot: I'm going to second Kada's plot nom here and add my reasons below.

Explain the plot in a paragraph for those who aren't familiar: Above.

Link any relevant threads (especially recent ones): Above.

Why you think it deserves the spotlight: While, yes, I agree with what Kada said, I'm going to voice it in my own way. This plot is definitely a "healing" plot. There is no fetishism of what's happening here. It's about a character going through a really screwy time and fighting their way out and finding a support system along the way.
