Member Spotlight: Lydress

Author: Lyara Tieran, April 2014

This month's member spotlight is on a little known older denizen of the site. Some of you may have had a run-in with her in the past, but most will not know who she is. Years ago the Val Curan company created a drink called WoTka. It was a potent drink that not many could down in large quantities. It also had the tendency to breathe life into inanimate objects. One of these objects was none other than my own Accepted's dress.

Lydress, as she came to be called, spent her days hiding under my bed and her nights roaming the Tower grounds causing all manner of havoc.

One of her most memorable feats was painting the MoN's office while she was away overseeing the naughty novices on the farm. Sparkles, color, and feathers were everywhere.

When I finally managed to corner Lydress this month for an interview, I asked her what she'd been up to for the last year with our move to the new boards and all the new members.

"I've been busy building up a large supply of oats, feathers and some pink and green bubbles that have gone unnoticed in the White Lab," wrote Lydress on the pad of paper in front of her.

Upon being asked what plans she had for those items, she quickly placed her sleeves behind herself and shook as if laughing. Unfortunately, Lydress can't make any sound so I'll never know if she was laughing or crying as she promptly removed herself from the interview by jumping out the window, expanding into an umbrella-like shape and floating away.
