DGM Soft Kitty was the GM of the USS Sentinel, beginning in Season 5, and was the leader of the 22nd from June 29, 2013 until June 17, 2024. Despite her outwardly cute behavior, Soft Kitty has shown her evil side, and placed the Sentinel in harm's way more often than not. During her tenure, Kitty also served as the GM for the USS Protector group after DGM Angelboy stepped down, as well as the USS Banshee group.
DGM Soft Kitty had the distinction of being the first Daedalus GM to permanently kill a player's character during a scheduled session. For this, some had taken to calling her "DGM Bloody Mary", but none did so to her face. After all, who would want to risk the wrath of a GM?
Jokes aside, DGM Soft Kitty was the metaphorical glue that held the fleet together for years. Despite suffering from chronic medical issues that eventually claimed her, Kitty was always kind, joyful, and willing to step in wherever she was needed. She will be remembered as the best of us.
Testimonials from the fleet
- Kitty was the heart and soul of this fleet, and I and I'm sure everyone else here considered her a friend, and was honored to be able to spend what time we had with her. She was an absolutely brilliantly creative GM who always inspired me, not to mention one of the kindest souls I've ever met. Even in the depths of my grumpiest or most depressed days she could conjure forth a smile and a laugh from me. I'm better for having known her and devastated to have lost her. My deepest condolences to K and the rest of her family.
- Kitty has always been a shining beacon in this group and I always admired her passion and joy in telling stories with us all.
- I have sooo many amazing memories from the early days when her and I first joined the 22nd. She was always a beacon of positivity and forgiveness. Even when I was the Fleet Commander, it was really Kitty that held this community together
- I could always just poke Kitty and Kitty would explain it to me with patience and understanding making sure I could keep up and be involved, many talks about movies, Favorite Star Trek ships, Naval traditions and many more things, Kitty helped me trough some very stressful times in my life and I will never for forget the strength and caring Kitty had for all of us.
- My experience with her was always one of infectious joy. She was incredibly kind, sweet, and genuinely and all around great person. I didn’t know her long but she was always fully of infectious sweetness and fun times. She helped me find my passion for RP and stories again.
- Kitty was a special light, anyone else at all i could come up with one instance, some time that i could say theyd done something negative, not Kitty I cant think of anything ever. I remember the new girl to the fleet so wide eyed and in love with the game so full of questions, seeking advice on ship equipment, asking me to craft things for her, watching her rise in the fleet, seeing how she cared so much about it, helping to smooth things over with the other admirals for her I was so very proud of her.
- To kitty you were a good friend! You supported me when many would have just kicked me to the curb! You taught me a lot on what a good GM should be like! If there is an afterlife I hope to see you again! I wish I could repay the debt I owe… You were a bright star! So here’s to you our captain! To Kitty hope to see you in the next adventure!
