I find over the years you encounter a cast of characters in Eve who, sometimes without knowing it, shape you or your organisation. One such story for us, is the encounter with the Ferryman:
The Ferryman
I wonder if he still plays. I would like to think that he does, though I fear that such a man could not last long in the cold, harsh world of New Eden.

Already found this story before seeing this topic, but just decided to post here to express how amazing this story is.
Definitely deserves a spot in the EVE comic or even an episode of the EVE TV show. |

You know, stories recounting the epic battles that have defined the eve universe just do not resonate with me as well as this simple story.
Thank you. And I give a salute to The Ferryman as well. |

I'm trying to understand exactly what happened. Did he take the cargo, put it all in at the Yiratal station, go back to Fihrneh, bought all of the stuff he took and put it in the hauler, then went back to Edilkam? Or was it a more simple, he took it, decided he wouldn't take it, moved it back to where he found it, and kept using his rookie ship? I am the Kingpin of the Crime and Punishment forum.

Came expecting tale of newbie getting destroyed.
Left disappointed.
You should've killed him. Instead he didn't learn a thing from this, and was probably just killed in a similar situation later. Some people need a good kicking to get the message across. |

Nice read.
Not many people would return an abandoned industrial.

You didn't understand the story. The point of the story was that the ferryman acted with integrity by returning the industrial ship and not stealing anything from it even though he needed the contents. And so for that reason RnK treated him with the same honour by not destroying his ship and letting him live. The trouble is there are too many people who have little integrity and do not live in an honorable way in todays society, and so unfortunately I'm not surprised if some people don't understand this.

I love that 'the ferryman' was oblivious to all the activity behind the scenes, and leaving a hauler with just what he needed was hilarious. |

Is it just me, or is unpiloted hauler appearing out of nowhere, carrying exactly what you need, at just the time you need it, just a little suspicious? |

Excellent story, and well told.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |
