Walk Like An Egyptian
I sat for a while in my wondrous new home in the Great Wildlands of New South Wales and studied the inhabitants of this strange area. It seemed to me that this was far too popular a place for 0.0, compared to the mostly desolate systems I had been to in the north.
I concluded that the bible bashers, the ice hockey players and the French vixens ruled over a much smaller populace than in the Australia of EVE. This was a vibrant, cosmopolitan place and I intended to have some "bonzer" fun during my time out here.
I turned my map upside down and took a moment to study it:
Link
After tying my kangaroo down, sport was on my mind. I relaxed for a while and listened to the mesmerising didgeridoo music, as I downed my can of "Castlemaine XXXX".
In the event that I needed to upgrade my ship to a battlecruiser, I was hoping not to meet any Australians with special educational needs, because I knew that dyslexic Aussies:
Couldn't give a Ferox for anything else...
No sooner had I begun to survey my new surroundings when a trade box suddenly appeared on my screen and a rotting corpse was violently thrown at me by a pilot who appeared to be a Russian with excellent sight:
Link
In that moment of utter terror, I clicked accept and became the proud owner of ANDY336's decaying remains. Yet again, I wondered how another poor unfortunate soul had met his grisly end. It seemed to me that there was a great deal of death in the EVE universe.
Despite my furious demands in Local to discover the curious reason for this "deadly assault", my necrotic assailant remained suspiciously silent.
"So this is how outsiders are welcomed to the south" - I thought to myself, as I wondered if I would awake the next morning to find a burning cross on my lawn, or if indeed I would awake at all.......
I noted that my assailant was a member of the immortal truth and I took this to be a gentle warning that if I knocked, the door would not be opened unto me. However, biblical texts had been very clear that "one who seeks, does indeed find".
I therefore decided that I would infiltrate their mystery organisation anyway, in hopes of having the great secret of life revealed to me in a cataclysmic epiphany of joy. Perhaps the dead body had been thrown at me as part of a carefully constructed initiation ceremony, to see if I was made of stronger stuff and would persevere in my noble pursuit of knowledge.
Having been a student of the great secret societies of the ages, I knew that the path of wisdom could be traced far back into history, through many occult organisations, such as the Freemasons, the Ordo Templi Orientis, the Rosicrucians of the 17th century, the Knights Templar of the 13th century, the secret gatherings of Eleusinia, and yet even further back to the ancient Egyptian mystery schools of several thousand years ago.
If these people truly were the beholders of the immortal truth then there would be an Egyptian connection somewhere.
It was then that I saw this:
Link
"Anubis | Ra" - Member of "Nun Amun"
After falling off my chair and damaging the cheap metal plates on the floor of my shuttle, I walked like an Egyptian as I hobbled back to my seat.
I wanted in on the secret.
I wondered if the stargates around here could be aligned using a computer program that mystically moved the symbols on the outer ring, causing them to arrange themselves into the code that unlocked the holy portal to the domain of the eternal Gods. Or failing that, I would settle for the almighty summoning of a giant intergalactic pizza. My stomach was growling relentlessly.
I gasped in terror as I was suddenly contacted by the most unexpected organisation...

Exekias, that is an astounding piece of work.
If ever a 400x120 pixel image could have been constructed to elegantly summarise a man in a shuttle flying through terra incognita like lawrence of arabia, and being mercilessly chased by a multitude of hostiles intent on bringing about his podding in a dastardly and unashamedly hostile manner, this is it.
I will henceforth proudly adopt this magnificent piece of artistic genius as my forum signature.
Thank you very much.

Great work INNOMINATE. And that sig is superb, much props to the designer and his donation. I would expect something like that to sell in the region of 100-300m to a regular person.

Covert Surveillance
As I observed the wombats, dingbats, wallabes, possums and koalas from the reinforced perspex window of my shuttle, a chat box scarily appeared on my screen. I tentatively accepted it and promptly discovered that I had been contacted by none other than the southern branch of the mob:
Link
I wondered if the corrupt bible bashers from the north had sent a carrier pigeon down here to warn their associates of my arrival. I cautiously greeted this mystery "recruiter and enforcer" and was threateningly informed of the following:
Link
I wondered if this was the only service that the Chicago Mobsters provided to their clients. Surely it would be financially difficult to sustain a living purely through rendering their enemies unable to walk for a few months. A couple of seconds later, my questions were fully answered when it was explained that their organisation had a supplemental method of deriving extra income:
Link
After this somewhat disturbing introduction to the organisation, I engaged in a very pleasant discussion about life in the Great Wildlands. Apparently, I was in the middle of yet another war-zone and was informed that many a shocking podding would probably be in my near future, should I choose to stay....
Some minutes later, the conversation turned to the subject of jump-clones. It was explained to me that in order to use my Infomorph Psychology skill it would be necessary to have a standing of 8.0 with the station where I wanted to install my dashing doppelganger.
I enquired as to what would happen if, after installing the clone at a player owned station, the standing was then ruthlessly taken away from me:
Link
This was good news indeed. Now all I needed to do was to find someone in 0.0 who was wealthy and powerful, who owned a station, and would be prepared to set a standing of 8.0 with INNOMINATE NEUTRALITY, without thinking that everyone in EVE is an alt spy.
In my journeys so far, I had witnessed countless examples of paranoia from members of organisations terrified at the idea that their competitors and enemies could be spying on them.
I considered this whole concept to be ridiculous and grabbed a drink of mineral water from the nearest billabong. It's one thing to be sensible and cautious, but to continually be terrified that everyone you meet is an alt spy is just downright silly.
I resolved that I would not succumb to this unjustified stupidity. To regain my focus on sensible issues, I began a conversation with another pilot in the system and upon asking him what he does for a living, he informed me that he was an alt spy.......
Link
Several minutes later he was pleased to reveal that his alt spying had been extremely successful and that:
Link
Being safely docked at the time, I was unsure of just how many innocent locals had been brutally slaughtered in this surprise attack. I was experiencing the harsh realities of war once more, not so long after having witnessed the RAZOR battle from the sidelines.
Unlike my previous war, this time I had advance knowledge of what was happening, courtesy of a surprisingly talkative spy...
He informed me that he could not tell me who he was spying on, or to whom he was answerable. This was fine by me, seeing as I had not the slightest clue who any of the people around here were anyway. Besides, I was busy searching for the immortal truth.
I wondered if I would also end up being accidentally killed in this conflict too, as I had been in the north.
I did the sensible thing and undocked so that I could find out...

ASCN alliance leaders gave out this order to a few thousand pilots on weekend:
>>this guy is NOT to be shot. We're going to allow him travel rights for his journey.>>>
Which means a big part of the south (including Esoteria and Feythabolis) just became as safe as you can be in 0.0
It would help if you contact ASCN leadership (e.g. John McCreedy, EDF CEO) to have your INNOMINATE corp set to "friendly" status. And to get docking rights at the deep south player built outposts. Which also means you can get to our stations easily and make a big leap through hostile territory without getting shot at.
I could even imagine that an escort would form up and protect you as you travel south (and use you as bait to get some decent PvP :-) People love to be mentioned in stories. Here is a quote from someone else --> "I might chase him down, I wanna get into that story somehow"
Have fun
