This is a rough idea at the moment so don't flame me if you find a flaw, add some constructive advice.
I had an idea to add some jove missioning at level 5.
The Jove had never had any real desire to venture outside of their own space but, from time to time, a lone wanderer would appear near their border. Whether it due to navigational error, random exploration or the pilot's curiosity to take a peek into the world of the Jove was immaterial, the pilot could be an instrument for them. An ingress into places they desired not to tread...'
The Mission Story Outline
A jove ship accosts you as you explore the boundaries of their space. It quickly becomes apparent they require that you run an errand for them. Having no desire to enter the territories of the four other races, you will become their instrument. In return, you will be rewarded with loyalty points and unique factions items.
Obtaining faction items:
Primary Requirement: Loyalty points.
Secondary Requirement: Corpses (obtained during the missions - only mission corpses would be tradeable for faction items). As well as normal items (such as ship and ship items and any other mission items deemed required by the jove).
Tertiary Requirement: Standing of 0.8 with the Jove Empire or higher.
I thought this would be a neat idea because it gives some level of interaction with the Jove as part of a level 5 epic arc and also gives players the chance to obtain new and unique items from the jove (not necessarily ships). It also has a sort of macabre mystery surrounding why the jove want human corpses all of a sudden.
Comments, thoughts, suggestions.
I have my canister of Troll-b-gone at the ready.

I don't care so much about details on the loot, but I like the story idea.
Perhaps the Jove seeded capsule technology among the other races for just this purpose, and refusing their offers comes with a price....

how about making the lp store a sort of pot luck present idea you set out certain values for certain ranges of items and when u have enough lp you can hand them in for a present/package that could be anything from a list for a certain price.
or you could hand over a presently ingane ship which the joves could "tweak" for you like addings more powergrid or an extra slot for your lp's. that would give us a rather fun way of specialising our ships past what they are now as it amazes me that we still seem to be stuck with mark one versions of each ship its not as if that happens in real life things are always being improved or redesigned.

I was thinking, in fact, that one of the rewards could be a special pod with one mid slot and one low slot. I know GM's and CCP have such a pod so it wouldn't be impossible to do.

And best of all, it would be totaly random, you suddenly get a call and a point in space to jump to, and there is this wierd ship that gives you this mission... make it almost impossible to grind for the items, you just need to fly by at the oportune moment... and you never know when that is... Id like to se more randomness in eve... Like Distress Call

Actually the idea is that it would be mostly missions in regions of 0.2 and below, thus making it harder to do the missions and get the items.
