Arkansas, USA
Known on the forums and by her friends as Pepsi and using the name "Pehpsee" in the cavern,* Janet was active in the community by 2003. Joining the Ubisoft forums as Pepsi1953 in June of that year, she would become a Moderator and Community Assistant on the Ubisoft MystWorlds forums.[1] Later that year, she would participate in the Uru Live Beta (Choru) and join the Guild of Greeters. She also participated in Prologue and was one of the original members of the DLA (D'ni League of Activities).[1] A well-known and beloved member of the community, Pepsi received many well wishes in her last days (Post by JennyH on Ubisoft Forum: Note from Pepsi WM) and many touching tributes upon her passing. The Guild of Healers created a webpage dedicated to her[1] and Cyanist Richard Watson (RAWA) wrote a message in the D'ni language for it [2] thus earning her entrance into the D'ni Dictionary as a reference for those phrases.[3] Even years later, explorers still remembered her fondly with touching tributes.
