[Starscape]

Welcome to the voting thread for the 233rd Trek BBS Fan Art Forum Challenge!

Our Festive Theme for December was A Prophecy Foretold, and described as:

A Prophecy Foretold
Portray a scene from a species's religious texts or show a character taking part in a spiritual activity, visiting a religious site, etc.

As usual, the winner earns our utmost respect and has the honour of wearing the golden “Fan Art Challenge Winner” badge on their profile for the following month.


We have FOUR entries from which you can choose your favourite in the poll:

@Cyfa
Divining the future with Betazoid tarot cards.

@Michael
A younger Tuvok in deep meditation during his Kolinahr ritual

@Starscape
The Great Fledge of Aurelia

@Tarek71
A Guiding Star

Spoiler: Tarek71's description

Some Trill have hired Cyrano Jones to take them from K-7 station to one of the "Guiding Stars". Bio-luminescent structures that radiate feelings of joy, peace, contentment and connectedness with all life. These structures grow naturally on the Trill homeworld and two exist in open space. Symbionts are especially susceptible to their influence and so joined Trill are particularly keen on spending time near them during their semiannual maximum luminescent phase.

Some psi powered species, like Betazoids report an increase in the natural sensitivity of their own abilities when near to one of the stars. So named because they resemble a twinking star, and led to a religious movement among Trill devoted to the Guiding Star of Peace and Oneness.

Thanks for voting!

Oh, wow! Thank you, everyone. I didn't think mine stood a chance against the other entries, but there was clearly something that took peoples' fancy (not, the rubbish photography, that's for sure )
