Citation (2401): For participation in the Frontier Day event of 2401.
Citation (2401): Presented by - Lia Rouiancet - It’s my distinct pleasure to once again present the Natasha Yar Pin to Jared, the talented writer behind Lieutenant Commander Aine Sherlock, the Butler’s exceptional chief of security (and, as of a few weeks ago, also our second officer!). Jared won the Yar Pin two years ago, and we celebrated then his ability to bring depth and nuance to the role of a security officer. This year, he has not only maintained that high standard but has further elevated Aine Sherlock into a truly formidable character.
Jared writes Sherlock as a force to be reckoned with, proving that strength comes in all sizes. While her short stature might not immediately suggest a physically imposing security officer, Jared's portrayal leaves no doubt about Sherlock’s capabilities. Through his simming, we see a character who is fiercely protective of her ship and crew, unwavering in her commitment to their safety. But, as I’ve seen firsthand and as his nominators noted, what sets Jared's portrayal apart is the multifaceted nature of Sherlock's approach to security. She's not just about brute force; Jared shows us a character who is constantly analyzing, adapting, and strategizing. In every situation, Sherlock considers potential threats, weighing not just when to act, but how to respond most effectively. This balance of quick thinking and measured action is the hallmark of an exceptional security officer, and one that, in this case, has been recognized as the fleet’s best twice in three years.
Jared's consistent excellence in portraying Aine Sherlock, his ability to showcase both the physical and intellectual aspects of a security officer, and his ongoing contributions to our fleet make him a most deserving recipient of the Emeritus Natasha Yar Pin. Please join me in congratulating Jared for his outstanding work and for continuing to set the bar high for security simming in the 118 fleet!
Citation (2401): Jared's made quite an impression! Believe it or not, Jared hasn't been a part of the 'Oumuamua/OEB group for a year yet (which I had to double-check, because I'm so used to thinking of him as an integral part of our puzzle, and so it's wild that he hasn't been here forever!), and yet he's already made his mentorship mark on simmers both new and experienced, assigned mentees and simmates alike. His efforts to connect with mentees both in character and, OOC, as individuals showcases his commitment to fostering growth (the OEB's, his mentees', and his own). Jared's approach to shepherding those under his care, encouraging their development, and striving to assist them makes him an incredibly deserving recipient of the Pathfinder Award, and I hope he shares his skills for a long time to come!
Citation (2401): For participation in the Denali Invitational of 2401.
Citation (2398): Since coming aboard out of the Academy, Sherlock has been willing to jump on in and participate in anything that any of us needed help with. From the wiki, to images, and just JPing and connecting with the rest of us, Sherlock’s contributions go a long way towards making the Resolution feel like home.
Citation (2400): Amanda: Jared had thrown himself into helping in out of character ways. Perhaps the most visible contribution are his efforts in working with images. Not only does he fulfill requests for the group at large, but takes the time to work on specific requests for those in Ops. Last year, Ops won the Halloween Avatar Contest, all thanks to the time and effort he put into the images. He’s always willing to help facilitate, contribute ideas to the story, and just help people out whenever needed or requested. Congratulations!
Jamie: Jared, your graphic contributions are amazing and have helped us out so much since you have come onboard. Thank you for your support in the Fleetwide Halloween Avatar contest, you did such a fantastic job! And in game you’ve been great with leading security teams and helping out with missions, which is a huge help. Thank you for everything you have contributed to make Ops an awesome place to play!
Citation (2398): By adding imagery to our wiki, offering image creation services to us and others, and by generally putting pictures to the things we write, Sherlock provides yet another layer of creativity and depth to what we do. While it may seem like these are another part of the process, they are very appreciated and definitely make what we write more real and enjoyable for all.
Citation (2399): Jared is always and forever adding special touches with his skills in rendering and photoshop. He's created visuals of numerous locations, such as the Resolution memorial, and the unforgettable face of Commodore Coffee, as well as 'class rings' for Academy graduates and a number of photoshop manipulations as requested by members of the fleet. Truly awesome work!
Citation (2401): Who among us hasn't benefited from Jared's graphics wizardry? (If you haven't, then I recommend remedying that posthaste!) Jared's contributions to bringing the Trek universe and our characters' place in it to life through visuals have been extraordinary. From creating Halloween avatars and updated uniforms, to designing 3D representations of the ship and bridge, Jared's artistic endeavors have greatly enhanced our simming experience. His willingness to create visuals for individual crew members further demonstrates his dedication to enriching our shared universe. We are very lucky to have Jared for many reasons, not the least of which is his skill with visuals and graphics.
Citation (2398): Presented by Kalianna Nicholotti: There is a lot that goes into a good security officer. With plenty of on-screen examples, we have a pretty good idea of what it takes to serve in this role on a starship, but it takes a special writer to bring it all together. The recipient of this year’s Natasha Yar Pin, Jared - aka Lieutenant JG Aine Sherlock - does a fantastic job and exemplifies everything we look for. Strong, true, smart, and witty. The character Jared writes jumps off the page and fills the role so well I can't imagine the Resolution without her.
Citation (2399): During two of our missions, Aine was injured and simmed it well, both in the moment and throughout the recovery. First was in protecting her crewmates during a hostage situation on Rinascita station where she was shot in subduing a Suliban terrorist. With emergency surgery having to be done before getting back to a ship to stabilize her, she simmed the ensuing mental strife well. Then, on the next mission, she found herself concussed, and in a state of mental disarray...which was ultimately quite fun to read.
Citation (2400): Amanda: Jared, the writer behind Sherlock, has never been afraid to throw difficulties at his character. Sometimes, that may manifest itself in physical injuries, but at others those trials can be more mental or emotional in nature. He has continued some of these challenges and thrown in some new ones, such as what happened at Rinascita. There’s no doubt he likes to torture his character and will continue to do so. Congratulations!
Jamie: Jared, I find your Aine sims are gripping and you have continually peeled back layers of this character to expose the traumas of past missions and the haunts of past events. This makes for some incredible character development as well as great reading material. Keep up the excellent writing!
Citation (2399): Recognized with the Vega award on ship, Aine Sherlock’s contributions to the fleet at StarBase 118 go well beyond just their own ship. Jared, the writer behind Aine is a prolific contributor to the image collective, and specializes in not only character portraiture but more complicated designs such as 3-D models, blueprints for locations and odd jobs such as memorial plaques, coffee designs and in-world signage. This amazing graphics talent helps to being our setting alive and invigorates our wiki!
Aine’s skills are always growing and the player is not afraid to tackle challenges. Special thanks for all the hard work done on the 3-D models of Amity station as well as settings for the Excalibur-A and StarBase 118 Ops! It is commendable for a graphic artist to support their ship, but Aine goes above and beyond, supporting other ships and installations at a fleetwide level. Nominations from across the fleet recognized and thanked Jared for his willingness to work with others and incredible graphic skill.
A true graphics wizard, a wonderful fleet supporter and an amazing player, I am thrilled to present Aine Sherlock with this year’s Okuda Award! It is very well deserved!
