Why you think they deserve the spotlight:
A new player, they've jumped headfirst into SA, with a handful of chars, and a welcoming presence in the cbox.

Spotlight Character: Jason Allenger/Thorn

Why you think they deserve the spotlight:
Saber writes the creepy serial killer well. And the character is driving a lot of plots for a lot of characters, which is always fun to watch.

Spotlight Plot: Party in the MCI

Explain the plot in a paragraph for those who aren't familiar:
Just a party at some rich people's house, but a good catalyst for characters to meet. We have seduction, dancing, and a triggering of split personality.

Link any relevant threads (especially recent ones):
Party in the MCI
NSFW - spin-off - Fortunes and Seductions

Why you think it deserves the spotlight:
It's a simple idea, but it came at the right time, and it's a great way to introduce new characters and also start up spin off plots.

Spotlight Member: Kaya
Kaya is a fun and very kind person, there incredibly friendly and greets everyone with hugs and love, and its really enjoyable threading with them, their characters are very fun and range from sweet and innocent to sexy and seductive.


Spotlight Character: Joan Ethel Linde
This character fascinates me, during the days she's a shy sweet girl, a pleasure to be around, at night she's cursed to become a violent villainess. Both states fit the snake theme but in different way, she's a truly interesting character and I look forward to seeing her develop.

Spotlight Member: @Keen

Why you think they deserve the spotlight: Keen has made lots of original-species characters; I love their Oricentas and the Oricenta characters. Keen's made lots of diverse and original ones for CCM, and I feel like that hard work should be appreciated.

Spotlight Character: River Alkmene-Sawatis

Why you think they deserve the spotlight: I love River's character as a whole. The idea is super original; Boop plays their personality well; River's an awesome character. Nice job, Boop!

Why you think they deserve the spotlight: An old member with a great name, they have done so many posts and started so many plots so dang fast.

Spotlight Character: Heath Greer
Why you think they deserve the spotlight: If you didn't expect me to nominate Heath you don't know me very well. HE SOLD HIS DAUGHTERS SOUL.

Spotlight Plot: (Shamelessly stolen from Boop)

Clipped Wings

Explain the plot in a paragraph for those who aren't familiar:
After Jake experiences a prophetic dream of Liz dying on the floor, Liz, Soren, and Yoka are kidnapped by an unknown man - a torturer and serial killer.

Link any relevant threads (especially recent ones):
Sweet Dreams... Yeah Right!
Clipped Wings


Why you think it deserves the spotlight:
Saber has been working on this plot for a long time, it's nice to see the start of what promises to be a very character developing arc. Things look grim for these three characters - what will happen next?

Spotlight Plot: EmiLoch in Love

Explain the plot in a paragraph for those who aren't familiar: Emily Kirkpatrick has discovered that she has fallen in love with Lochlann Cabyll-Ushtey, a situation that is not as simple as it seems. Lochlann pushes away Em in fear that his nature might bring harm to her, while she searches his actions for proof that he isn't as much a monster as he claims. Will the young psychologist be able to coax feelings from the kelpie?

Link any relevant threads (especially recent ones):
Hey nightmare, where did you get them teeth
The whole truth is nothing but a good excuse
Less is more except when it comes to mistakes
Who can you trust when you turn on yourself

Why you think it deserves the spotlight: Because it is amazing and ReD is a really good writer. Also because I think it appeals quite well to those that enjoy feelsy romantic stuff with the occasional dramatically deadly turn.
