Ignatius Reilly Tue Jan 8th, 2013 @ 6:00pm |
This particular character has grown quite a bit since she started on 900, and before that on the USS Berkeley simm. What started out as a very casual relationship with another woman, blossomed into a friendship and then they wound up being a family. Ignatius J. Reilly Zeferino began her life in our little world as a mere pet to LCDR Zeferino, our Chief of Security, but after a chance run-in with a crystal, her entire world changed. Iggy went from your regular, everyday Goliath Tarantula to a sentient being that began talking, asking questions, learning and going leaps and bounds beyond the normal constraints that a tarantula might have. She developed her own personality, provided insights on the world of arachnids to the rest of the bipeds around her, got involved in shenanigans with the lowest ranked personnel to the highest ranked on the base and has even opted to enroll in classes at the satellite academy to increase her knowledge. She has shared laughs with us, been there for the bad times with her friends and family, and gives us insights from an angle that many of our characters never even think to look from. For this, Iggy is given the Character of the Year award. For those that don't know, Iggy is written by the author of Oralia Zeferino, Janice Gree, Chance Conradi, Michael Darwin, Ian Bren and Seyla. She has been writing with me since just after I started the Berkeley and has been with 900 since it started, when all of the Berk's characters moved over here. Some know her as Reva, others know her as Tracy...I think I've called her "hey you" once or twice. But I know that she has created one hell of a character with Iggy and I appreciate her writing with us and bringing such a unique character to this simm. |
