Unplugged! - "Ebony Award"

AWARDS UNPLUGGED: Where we take the Summer 2008 awards & break 'em down to "Tribe" references so you can see what each award refers to, then the defining moment that resulted in a character receiving this award.

Ebony Award

From Season-1, Ebony was the exotic one, the one nobody could predict or take for granted. Zoot showed her the meaning of strong & that she couldn't measure up because she wasn't willing to do "anything" without reservation. Without Zoot, this girl created her own definitions & followed her own passions. To hell with what anybody else thought. Tribe leader. City leader. Queen of the Technos or just a girl on the run with the man she loves ... Ebony was totally unique.

Ebony and BLACKROSE probably would've totally hated each other, mostly because they have so much in common. But Blackrose did Ebony one better - Blackrose is, indeed, willing to do anything to get what she wants or to protect who she loves. That love is Tristan, and Blackrose still tries her best to win him back though he's married & actively recruiting another beauty to his side. Like Ebony, Blackrose never gives up hope. Exotic beauty? Definitely. Unpredictable? Totally.
