That's it! She had a terminal disease. It was only very vaguely hinted at in the show, but it was confirmed by Morena Baccarin at a convention panel and by writers (I think) in a 10th Anniversary commentary. How would you like your prize?
Description/Explanation:
I chose Inara because she is compelling, mysterious and enigmatic. There is a lot that is unknown about her and I love a good mystery.
Charismatic : Companions are trained to listen, to comfort, to be entrancing in conversation. Inara tends to enchant those she meets with her charm.
Disciplined: Companions must be in control at all times, they must not fall in love with their clients, their culture is steeped in ritual and their actions carry meaning and depth. They also learn martial arts both to protect themselves and as an art form.
Inara has been shown to be adept at sword play and archery.
Proper : Inara carries herself with grace and poise , she dresses impeccably, is at home in high society and clearly values the finer things in life.
Irresistible :A single look from her can be captivating, both because of her beauty and her mannerisms.
Nurturing : Inara often behaves like a big sister watching out for Kaylee and River. She is very caring towards them.

I won't always have 100SP to offer for these, but here goes one more time...
"Am I a _____________? I don't think of myself as a ________________. You might as well though, I have a mighty roar."
100SP prize to the person who can
1. identify the word that goes in the blanks for this quotation.
2. identify the character that said it
AND
3. tell us the question that Simon Tam actually asked the character in the scene
You got it again, Thelessy! How would you like your 100SP prize:D
And a 50sp bonus to the next person that can tell me the name of the episode this exchange occurred in - Sorry, Thelessy, in order to share the wealth, you won't be eligible for the bonus question
I have been working my Mal Now I have a tough choice whether to enter my River or to do my Kaylee :P
Here are a couple collages I did of River
Great pose choices for River, Charicharn! For whichever entry you do choose though, make sure you have a close-up head shot (this is most easily accomplished within CAH, in my experience) as a good deal of the judging will come from facial similarity and this is best judged from an angle looking directly at the camera
The name of the episode was "Objects in Space" It is where River pretended to be Serenity and she was in the bounty hunters ship...(Looked up the name though )

You got it, charicharn! How would you like your 50SP prize?
I do have some close up of her She is in my studio. Just been a bit ..dealing with things...and I also have a couple other contests I wanted to take part in. But I think the deadline for yours is the closest so I will try to see what I can up with by tomorrow
Oh, one last thought before bed... I understand that there have been a number of Firefly CAS contests in the past. And maybe you've submitted one or two of your favorite main characters and won an award in the past (Mal, Kaylee, Wash, Zoe, Inara, etc.)... but what about those memorable supporting characters?
Case-in-point, Jubal Early from the trivia question this evening:
He only appears once, but there is quite a bit about his character that is revealed. Could make an interesting entry...
He is a cool and totally unstable character. Very interesting.
I am quite good at nerdy trivia, my brain is filled with random facts about Doctor Who and Buffy where most people would store useful things like telephone numbers and directions.
Haha! I love that quotation from Mal And great Jayne gif, jezebelthenun
This question is for a full page of recs -
What is the name of Mal and Zoe's friend from the Independence who had his body shipped to them on a space station? And what is the gift that Jayne received from his mom at the same station?

No worries - I used IMDB to make sure I had the quotation right
