A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.
First up was the costume connoisseur {LINK REMOVED}TizzyTam! In this Creator Spotlight, the cosplaying corsair regaled us with tales of her history with Crash Bandicoot, her experiences at SoTFest ’22 (including hosting) and how important it is to be yourself and not cave in to pressure from others. But do you think Sir Arthur Pendragon and Jar Jar Binks are synonymous? We have our doubts.
Later in March we lined up another Creator Spotlight, this time checking in with one of the community’s favourite yarn-spinners, {LINK REMOVED}Cliff the Story Guy. Taking a break from his usual schedule of sharing stories and guides on YouTube, Cliff delved into what brought him to video production in the first place and how his experiences shape his approach to content creation.
Next on our list, we returned to the world of streaming with the help of a recent inductee into the Sea of Thieves Partner Programme, {LINK REMOVED}LadyHaradaNiwa! Another pillar of the cosplay community and a big Belle fan, she discussed her journey to also becoming a Twitch Partner, how she got her channel name and what advice she’d offer to other upcoming content creators.
For our first Community Spotlight in this batch, we took the time to check in with artist and ten-time #SoTShot winner {LINK REMOVED}zNiinjaa to find out just what his secret is. Alongside reminiscing over The Arena, he discussed some of his favourite pieces of art and achievements in Sea of Thieves, as well as an unusual tattoo subject. Do you have any pirate-themed body mods?
As we moved into May, the Creator Spotlight highlighted event organiser and Nightmare mode hopeful {LINK REMOVED}LDSylvr. The conversation ranged from events like The Boomer Games and Captains of the Sylvr’d Waters to surviving tornadoes. If you’ve ever wondered why someone would undertake the mammoth task of trying to reach Pirate Legend without dying, give it a read…
May’s Community Spotlight saw us featuring our avian friend {LINK REMOVED}Owlet! Unsurprisingly, we did end up touching on the topic of his famous daily owl requests and appearance in the Voyage of a Lifetime documentary, but we also heard about his work in musical theatre and how he briefly became Emperor of Tamriel. Not a bad promotion for a weekend’s worth of work.
Forging ahead into June, we kept the Community Spotlights coming with a {LINK REMOVED}Wh1zzrr_ encounter, chatting to her just ahead of her entry into the Partner Programme ranks. As a TikTok-based pirate tipster and trainer, Wh1zzrr_ told us the tale of how she carved out this niche for herself before going on to mention her other interests in writing, museum-hopping and more.
In our final Spotlight for this catch-up batch, we hopped on deck with the fightin’ pirate {LINK REMOVED}AweCoop to hear about his adventures from well over a decade of creating content. Trusted friendships, time management, tennis and maintaining a healthy balance of trash-talking vs. wholesome encounters were other subjects we criss-crossed over the course of the conversation.
And thus, with a full four months’ worth of recent Spotlights under our belts, we call an end to the sixth Spotlight Showcase! As always, the full interviews can be found by clicking through to the Sea of Thieves website, all packed with interesting insights and fun facts about some of the community’s favourite faces. If you’re hungry for even more, you can read up on all our previous {LINK REMOVED}Community, {LINK REMOVED}Creator and {LINK REMOVED}Legend Spotlights via our {LINK REMOVED}News page, or catch the highlights in our previous Showcases.
We’ll be back with even more Spotlight fun in the next few weeks, so keep an eye on all the usual channels. Until then, farewell and may the wind be in your sails!
