OVERVIEW OOC
March had an above average level of activity in posting levels, busier at the beginning of the month but trailing off with the Easter holidays at the end of March. After the highly active February, probably the creative break was much needed. I’m genuinely unsure what April will hold for activity rate! Keeping me guessing.
CREW UPDATE
This month sees us having to set Polar (Steiner/ HaiRoa/ Ibn Sharjar) to inactive status. We’re not sure what happened, but there hasn’t been contact since his last post in October. We hope he is well, and as one of our pillar members for a solid couple of years, we hope he can return one day.

AWARDS
Spiral - Community Engagement Ribbon
I have handcrafted a painted macaroni sign for Spiral’s role as “Sim Morale Officer”. She’s the most reliable member of the sim so far as recognizing her fellow players and helping with summaries and nominations. *puts the placard around her neck.*
David - Wordsmith Medal for Narrative Voice
“Unwitnessed, Unratified: What We Do” Rubens
An insightful portrayal of a young diplomat's experience. Who’s already aware of the complexities of diplomacy, with its delicate balance between progress and setbacks, punctuated by periods of stagnation.
Endia, Nikki - Obsidian Fleet's Post Spotlight
“Refractions: Deal or no Deal” Zahn & Leblanc
For the intense description of a fierce negotiation between two strong Orion women. A testament to strength, wit, and unwavering will.
Another Khitomer Awardee!
The following award was not announced on the day of Khitomer with the rest. As I checked the Khitomer site for awards updates recently, however, I discovered that it had been awarded (there had actually been two awardees) and the citation and announcement had been added to the record.
Post of the Quarter - The Runaway: Stowaway
Fernanda Ruiz knows a secret. Her father isn’t who she thought he was. And with the help of a friend, she’s charted her own arrangements to meet her real dad. Only there’s an unexpected detour along the way….
NPC solo post by player David K. Also writing Maurice Rubens
*as this was previously entered as a Nomination Commendation, I’ll be deleting the old record and re-entering it under Limited Issue Award
--
I’ll update these awards and recognitions to the sim Nova and send the post spotlight up to the fleet site for review.
That’s all folks!
