Solu Terona. You are charged with public lies about Caldari Officer, with disrespect to Caldari Officer and with spreading of gallentean propaganda. Your presence hereby will be considered as undesirable and your uninvited appearance might be met with preventive force actions without warning. Have a nice day. Kimmy: Judge, jury, and executioner. Meet the highest authority in the Caldari Navy, ladies and gentlemen.

I'm a naturally curious person. I have a more than passing interest in technology and ancient civilizations. I want to find out what people have done and learned, and find the next steps to extend those roads.
It takes an extreme amount of luck to be a scientist who gets access to even a single ancient relic; it takes a lifetime of such luck to become a chief investigator making active headway. This is in addition to the sheer work involved - the work is necessary but insufficient; ask a Matari slave what a life of work alone will get you.
I was on the one path. When I tested positive for capsule compatibility, I realized that I had found an alternative path towards the same ends and would be foolish to pass up the opportunity. The old-fashioned way was a possibility, but I had a way to exceed it quickly and acted.
One of my most distinguished professors worked in the field for sixty years before he was able to get direct access to a crate of decrepit Sleeper relics from known space. I looked upon active Sleeper drones guarding intact structures yesterday, and not for the first time. I chose correctly. |

does that sort of pain come with a propensity to use the standings system? Kimmy i know you don't like me but setting -10 is a little much.

On the bright side, that's an invitation to shoot right back.
Anyanka set me red one time, and I'm still red to her. My response was to set her to red and pile her name into my very large list of people to KOS. Typically, the people who are red to me are -5 to -10 (though depending on the subject's name and activity, I may also set people of -2 as red). That's how I determine, by a glance, whether someone hostile is on Local the next time I pass the area.

Conceived in a test tube and born into service of the Caldari State, becoming a capsuleer gave me a chance to freely roam the stars and learn from other empires.
While respecting my Caldari roots, I'm free to forge my own path, regardless of corporate modus operandi.

Our Husband and Lord believes this about us, that if a bird is released and flies away but then returns, her love and devotion is given of her own accord.
Upon our Emancipation and our marriage, we were given permission to leave for the Federation whose flag we were born under. We would study under the liberal auspices of a Federation education, and we would either disappear or return to him.
As a reminder of our fidelity, we bind ourself in a shibari harness of silk, an instrument of self-sequestration whose mechanics were taught to us by a female Achuran friend. Though our brain is fitted with post-Jovian tech, condemned not to die or suffer anytime soon of natural causes, hurtling through space wrapped in millions of tons of Tritanium and dark steel, we still consider it our honor to return to our spartan Holdership in Kador and kneel beside our Lord. It is our only pleasure.

I would say there were personal reasons I am not wililng to discuss here, but I was young and perhaps a bit too naive and lacking perspective for my own good back then. I was made a very generous offer by the Republic (who footed the bill for training and implants), compound that with a sense of duty and a good measure of hard-headedness - I suppose, partly I did it just to see if I could make it , and you got yourself a ... Well, uh, me. |

I served the State in Her Navy until the age of 35. I considered it more of a stepping-stone than a career, with the intent of an academic career later in life. While my studies focused on Military Theory, I considered myself a student of literature. While my best-known published works are treatises on the evolution of military tactics and technology, I also studied Amarrian literature quite deeply. The language, and the Empire's oft-obfuscated history, fascinated me then as it does now.
I received my discharge at the age of 35, when the CN Gaisho was destroyed and I lost my eye and arm. This one event, not even a footnote in Caldari history, changed my life. My father was and still is a career soldier, even now slogging through endless "hot wars" on remote worlds with his boots in the mud. When I announced that I was going to pursue a career as a teacher of literature, he unceremoniously disowned me.
I spent the next thirteen years as a student in the Federation, funding my studies largely through residual income from re-printings of the textbooks I had contributed to in earlier years. Five years ago my mother died after a long battle with cancer. The news brought me home, and I lost interest in my literary studies. I was unsure of what to do with my life, and a dear friend - a Gallente capsuleer by the name of Deuce Halcyon - suggested that I be tested for compatibility. Ironically enough, my new life has been mostly as a combat pilot, which has gone a long way toward mending my relationship with my family. But I still read as much prose as I can get my hands on.

Having been born and raised at the School at FDZ4-A VIII - 3, I was taught a great many things about New Eden by my Mentor, my mother's teacher and for whom I was named; from the minute I learned of Empyreans, I yearned to become one myself.
I received schooling and training at the School before transferring to the Univerist of Caille for my final certification, courtesy of my sponsor, and I now continue the same pursuit of knowledge I have from the beginning - only now on a much larger scale than ever before.

My batch was tested for compatibility and two of us demonstrated the necessary qualities.
I was ordered into capsuleer training.

Once I was confirmed Capsule compatible my father pushed me to enroll. His hope was that I would enlist to work for the Caldari Navy as he did, but on a higher level. He was a big believer in "The Way' and always pushed me to prove myself.
Thankfully other Capsuleers showed me the error in that line of thinking. While the Navy was the height of his potential, limiting myself to it was an insult to mine.

I went straight into the Imperial Academy when I was old enough. My father has a degree in Xenotechnology and Spacial Physics - he explores Anoikis and attempts to study sleeper technology. I guess the "tech bug" runs in the family, although I suppose I had a bit of a... sharper edge. I studied Electronic Warfare and Information Security at the Academy - I wanted to be an Empyrean Cyber Knight in the RKN. |

Hek. Orphanage. Genetic screening. Republic Security Services.
Not much of a choice.
Of course, I could have been a waitress, or a **** at the docks, or a janitor, or another random unit of human livestock an egger loots from a pleasure hub or something. Would it be better for the universe?
Probably yes.
But no such luck for it. Poor thing.

Such mundanity and frankness about said mundanity is refreshing. I'm seeing way too many 'great causes' in these parts.

I did it for the money. My family had recently been emancipated and we were trying to get established. When we found out I was compatible they convinced me to sign up. I took a second job and a few loans so I could afford the registration fees.
