The name is Dantax,
For some time now I have been a benine being; mining the lonely frozen ice belts in the cold dark of space or hauling crap in some rust bucket of a hauler which shudders under every thrust of the engines.
I lived this life for some 20 years.
Now; instead of kicking back in my chair while the mining lasers throb in the background im sat in my chair on the wing of sqaudron taking out Caldari and Amarr pilots.
Before I thought I had a good life; I made some credits; got drunk most nights and slept with any easy lady that would have my sweaty muscular body. Now? my life is on the edge.
Have you ever flown as part of a fleet? To be part of something so powerful, so immense and to be part of a greater purpose is simply breathtaking. Every time I open my guns up on Caldari Freighters or Amarr slaver ships I am overcome by a sense of satisfaction I have never felt.
It was just the other day in the Sosala system where our sqaudron engaged a small tactical fleet of Caldari; opening up my guns on a small Caldari Frigate I blew the ship in half only to have the pilot hit my windscreen and break in two; guts, blood and the contents of his last meal splashed all over my window. You know what though? I smiled!. Yes I smiled.
After years of opression, torture and persecution of my people at the hands of the Amarr and Caldari for that split second I glimmered revenge....and it was sweet.
Flying to my home station and docking my ship; I began the process of cleaning my ship. As the water ran off the screen and the blood flowed through my hands; it was as if the blood was never part of something; never part of something that could speak, kill, love and hate. It was just blood.
I tasted it's sweetness
And now I want more.....

What you are feeling has a name: psycopath. He who enjoys the death of others, who feels fulfilled by it deserves nothing better than a forgotten grave without marking. You are an offense to everything every pilot should look forward to. We kill for duty, but there should be no pleasure in itm, whatever side you may be fighting for.

Like you kill Minmatar women and children for duty Amarr?
I just hope your blood tastes as sweet coming from that bitter body of yours.

Well there is the dogmatic answer.
I'm a religious crusader in a holy war. Anything short of cowardice in the face of the enemy, treason, excommunication, or false idle worship and I get a pass on every sin I've ever done, and will do from now till eternity.

Believe it or not, this isn't actually the first time Sepherim has said something I agree with.
You need to check yourself into mental counselling, pilot. Right away.

This is just the kind of emotional and mental damage done in war. Some are luckier than others and are not as affected, but you, Pilot Dantax, are apparently not one of the lucky ones.
When you give in to the rage and hate and vile, bitter contempt that makes it so easy to kill others, to justify the act of murder, you fall into a dark, soulless pit of despair that few are fortunate enough to escape. I, too, once tread the path you now walk, and I hated and killed, and cared not a damn for either my own life or anyone else's. My God, and perhaps the soul of my dead sister, in whose name I killed and maimed, saved me from that Hellish place. I pray that you may find peace, and not the peace of dark emptiness that will consume you if it is allowed to. I pray for your soul and all the souls of the warriors of all sides. We are at an impasse, and must fight it out, but what little restraint and self control you can muster may very well be the only thing that saves us all from self destruction.
May the Hand of the Almighty bless and keep you all.

Beware of going combat-crazy, pilot. It tastes sweet to begin with, but it leads to bitterness, and while it makes you effective in an engagement, it clouds wisdom and strategy in war.

I concur Dantax, there is nothing quite as liberating or exhilarating as the rush of the kill, you warp disruptor pulsing, bullets and lasers flying, capsules splitting open. It is as fulfilling as it is effective to our cause.
Elsebeth is right, it can drive one too far, it can make you cold. I personally am lucky enough to have several anchors to reality, namely my lover Yendaj, and my co-pilots' company.
You will be called sick, psychopathic and cruel. But it is not who worships and kills in the name of a sky being, and it is not you that enslaves others because "it's the will of God". Your cause is pure, it is liberation, freedom, revolution. We kill for our people, and those people are real, unlike Rodj Blake's imaginary friend.

Well.
Hello, Pilot Dantax. Welcome, I feel fairly comfortable saying, to the ranks of the Demented-- those who, as I would have it, represent not so much the humans we were made from as the beings we are becoming. Like many of your kind, you've developed, or are developing, the instincts of an interstellar predator.
If you see some truth in this, I'd suggest distancing yourself from your human loyalties as quickly as emotionally convenient; our kind is currently, and somewhat ironically, at the mercy of a species that is fully capable of destroying us if it determines us to be an unacceptable threat, and the current war will be a significant test for us. Unfortunately, our condition makes us a significant danger to ourselves because we tend to lack empathy while lacking nothing of passion. The fewer of us who involve ourselves directly in the war, particularly in causes we actively care about, the better we'll likely come out for it.
It is best that we limit our own capacity and opportunity for atrocity.
In any event, I will look forward to testing your skills.

I never understood why podding causes such extreme Concord consequences: The capsuleer does not loose his life, after all. In a war, podding undermines the enemy's capability to fight by destroying implants and degrading morale. Take out every single pod you can get.
Do not let yourself be called a psychopath by people who murder the bodies and spirits of billions of innocent, non-clone contracted people without even blinking.

When the hostile ship blows, the killing part is done, getting the pilot and sending him/her to a new body is a mere formality. That part at least is not killing.
Jericho Fraction are partly right, infomorphs, ascension, humanity 2.0, call it what you will, fact of the matter are that we are demigod, not truly immortal or omnipotent, but not too far from it either. We affect the lives of many, and not always in a good way. Aria Jenneth talks about interstellar predators, and I believe that is what we have become. I've tried to run from it, to hide, to change things. But it always comes back to the same thing. Combat, guns, explosions and death. And it gives me a rush like nothing else. Maybe I am lost, or maybe I have become what the Jove meant for us to be. Who knows?
Luckily I am not alone, everyone, with very few exeptions, that posts on GALnet are vicious killers, maybe they kill for isk, for God, for freedom, for their nation, because they can or because they must, in the end, the result is the same. People die, and it is our fault to some extent. We pod-pilots are responsible for the deaths of billions. |

This is what happens when you are free. A free man makes poor decisions. He spends his money on meaningless things that contribute to nothing but their own pleasures. And then God be told, he let one too many realize freedom. Now free men are marauders, thieves, murderers. In my eyes they are no better than slaves. Now your mind is corrupt, and you LIKE the feel of the killing. The killing of people who fight for something they believe in, where-as you just kill because you can. Torture and persecution. Heh. Is that why you were able to spend 20 years mining in the lonely abyss bathing in women?
Freedom... Highly over-rated these days. The only way to experience freedom of good will is to settle down and sow a fields of vegitables, while teaching your son to embrace a man above all that teaches people NOT to be heathens like you!

The issue is not wether we do it or not, but if we enjoy it. Those who, like Mr Dantax, do enjoy death and destruction are lost. It is not a matter of being Amarr, Minmatarr, Gallente, Caldari or Jove, but of being Human. As simple, and yet so important, as that.

Some of you say that the path I now walk is a dangerous one in which I can lose myself and who I am.
I have never felt so alive; this war has given me a greater purpose and is satisfying my every need and desire for revenge.
Some have also made the comments that I did nothing whilst my people were tortured, persecuted and oppressed; that I whiled away my life with easy women and booze. You are wrong.
I drowned myself in booze to ease the pain that I felt in hearing of my brothers and sisters suffering; I worked long hours to help contribute minerals and to deliver weapons and supplies to gorilla groups fighting the cause.
Now that the Republic is behind me and my bretheren we have the power, force and funding necessary to take the fight to the next level.
Amarr and Caldari fleets have sustained heavy losses against us already and now they are feeling the full wrath of the Minmatar Republic.
The future is looking bright for us indeed.

Without destruction, there is no construction; Without death, there is no change. Without change, there is no progression: The most basic of all Amarr fallacies. It's not about enjoying or despising, but about accepting: You should enjoy everything you do, always. Podding a capsuleer, I have to say sadly enough, generally does not induce more change than destroying property and training fleeing reactions.

Progress is not an idea created by the Amarr at all, the Caldari and Gallente, and surely the Jove, are more prone to such an empty concept than we are.

Might I remind you that your brothers and sisters have thrust it upon themselves so that they may be suffering and having you rot your life away mining minerals? In the end, you're just a pawn. And your life has been wasted already, fueling a cause that is simply not worth it. They are not "your people" anymore. They are simply slaves that have been apart of the Empire for generations and generations. By now, most don't seem to care, or else they would fling up into open rebellion, which in turn, could mean they are simply too uneducated to know what is right for them anyway..
This is a very narrow-minded cause. Having only one cause, which is to "free your people", triggered by some old farts in battleships is just plain barbaric. And you sir, are lost.

Pilot Dantax, of course it feels good. All that pent up hate and need for vengeance. All those years that you could do little and here you have been handed a chance to do something. The sound of your guns, the sounds of the enemy's hull as it is rent apart. The bright splash of blood. The bellow of triumph you make when he falls. I'll bet you seek more, then. You ride the adrenaline high, your pulse quickens, and you want more. You go to find another target, and another, and another. Each kill intensifies this feeling in you. Each death you bring about or participate in heightens your sense of justifiable retribution. I'll wager you glory in each death as a personal victory, a blow against the cruel, hateful Empire. Its easy, and it is good, this feeling.
Yes, it IS easy, and you will want more. And more, and more. Until there arent any more targets to kill. Then you will have to go find more. But that takes time, time for you to come down, time for the feelings to fade, the memories of the colors of the blood to dim a bit, the memories of the sounds to fade a bit, and you will seek to kill again ever faster, almost frantically, so as to preserve the sights and sounds and the emotions you crave. Thats when you have crossed the line. Because at that point you no longer distinguish between a legitimate target of war, or any Amarrian in a ship. Hell, you may even take it upon yourself to launch a missile against some of the Amarrian settlements on the worlds in the Amarrian systems you control, after all, they are all vermin, arent they? They didnt do anything to stop the torture of your kind, didnt they? They may not have actually owned slaves, but they helped those that did, didnt they? They MUST all be guilty, right?
Eventually, you will fall to this feeling, this righteous indignation. You will become hollow, filled with the great emptiness of hate and anger. And you will attempt to fill that hollow place with more and more blood and death. What you will only come to realize (if your very very fortunate) is that death and killing do not fill anything, do not build anything, do not progress anything. War, death, and killing only destroy things (yes sometimes things need to be destroyed, but not wantonly or without restraint), and one of the things they destroy is the ones that do the destroying.

As with every idea, Miss Kitoba, it is created by people. Which by the way doesn't mean it is less relevant. Mr Dantax is a clear example of where you end up if you follow the Emptyness path.
