Whoopi Goldberg Diversity Ribbon

Awarded for the successful portrayal of a non-human character aboard a simulation.
In the interest of diversity, this award is granted to individuals who have done an exemplary job writing and developing their non-human characters. Playing ruthless Romulans, killer Klingons, freeloading Ferengi, clever Cardassians, benevolent Bajorans, vigilant Vulcans, aspiring Andorians and any others, while doing so in an excellent fashion, is worthy of recognition.
This award can also be used to commend those players who support other diversity factors in real life and our sims, including race, gender identity, ethnicity, and more.

In his continuing work to show us how life in the Circinus Galaxy plays out, I nominate Teevs for this award. His solo post, "The Worst she could say is no, Right?", was a wonderful read. I look forward to more in the future.

In her recent roll call solo post, we see a snippet of what life could be like for the families of those taken by the Borg. It was a very touching and beautiful post. When it comes to this writer, I am always in awe of her. While she may not write as prolifically as some, what she does write is ALWAYS powerful.

Thank you for this additional chapter. I am looking forwardto many more!

For her beautiful description of how her mind works (as seen in: Season 6: Episode 3: Far From Home - Music of the Spheres), along with her ongoing journey to find herself in the universe, I nominate Rin for this award. Her posts are always well-built and pull the reader in.

Excellent work!

His continuing attention to detail in showing us what his character's species is like makes him, in my opinion, worthy of this award. Keep up the great work, Sir!

I nominate the Alien Race the Ojnas. Created by Commander Aurelia Taylor and played by Imik. I have read the character/race bio and it is well thought out and rich in detail. It seems like at some point we ought to have a mission to the Ojnas homeworld and have a picnic. Very creative stuff. :)

As the resident dragon on Elysium, Sthilg always comes across as a believable Gorn, even down to the drawn out "S's". I always see the smiling reptilian face when he speaks. I hope he continues to add more flavor, from the Gorn side of the house, to the stew of writing that we are all constantly enjoying.

In regards to the Phoenix Lalor side of this writer, I am enjoying seeing the behind-the-scenes actions of her brother, as he continues towards his goal of destroying Phoenix. I am very much looking forward to seeing how thongs turn out. Curious as to how it will, ultimately, effect Erisia itself.

I really enjoyed exploring his different attitudes the Federation, and being reminded that a gentle giant is still a giant. And giants can crush things very easily.

This character has for at least two joint posts, been teaching my character all about his home world and its culture. He brings this alien world to life before your eye's and in a way which leads you to believe that somewhere, this world just might exist. I feel this award would be a reward for all his hard work and also having to put up with my character being in his wonderful alien world. Well done and please keep doing what your doing, I think your great.

For managing to play an Andorian infant/toddler character with depth and substance, instead of letting her simply become a prop. Good work, Gabby!

The Human/Ullian hybrid Chief of Intelligence brings a mystique to the role and with his dual race, shows that you don't have to be a betazoid to be telepathic!

This player plays her player created race to the hilt, bring enough chaotic order to our lives!

Our resident Vulcan/Human operations chief has shown great resilience in her interactions with the more chaotic members of our crew!

Our resident Sequus, though we have not seen a lot of him, he certainly has made his mark in the ship. Not often one sees a horse in the halls!

Human/Klingon - An interesting mix to be sure. And one that works well in our engineering team.
