Bonnie LaRue is not Morderwerk/Anthriel.
I know Bonnie. Both of them. The Bonnie account from EnB belonged to a married couple with whom I have gamed online in the House of Asswhip for the last six years. I have met them in person at the ASWP LAN party in Rockford, Illinois for the last two years. Last October they drove through West Virginia and picked me up and we rode together to Rockford.
They are not Anthriel.
Morderwerk/Anthriel bought Bonnie's EnB account about six weeks before EA announced the end of EnB. After Bonnie left EnB altogether, I was in F7 giving my stuff away, and I saw Morderwork with Bonnie's toon there. Bonnie was still a member of the by then defunct ASWP Defenders, and after my departure the Bonnie toon defaulted as guild leader.
If you see Bonnie, or Bonniesmule, or Bonniesuddermule in EnB, that is Morderwerk. Apparently Mord took Bonnie out of ASWP Defenders, because on the EnB website Bonniesuddermule is listed as "Hoochie Mama," the title I gave to the guild leader.
I came to EVE in mid-February and joined Celestial Horizon. Bonnie -- the real Bonnie -- followed me shortly thereafter and created a toon named Bonnie LaRue and likewise joined CH. We were then -- unexpectedly -- followed by several others from ASWP, and Togotchen Renamour, known in the House of Asswhip as Beheader, the founder and lead admin for the House of Asswhip, started the ASWP Mining & Transport Guild in EVE. Bonnie left CH and joined Togotchen's corp, and I then followed him.
Togotchen then turned the C.E.O. position over to me, and I made my separate account alt, Eyw Guyandotte, C.E.O. of the ASWP corp so he could train corp management skills so that my Babs toon could train more useful skills.
One day I got an application from someone named Anthriel, whom I did not know, and since all the other ASWP corp members at that point were long-standing members of the House of Asswhip, I asked around, and Bonnie told me that that Anthriel was Morderwerk.
I had known Morderwerk in EnB, and thus I had some concerns, and I expressed them to Bonnie, but I did approve his application. It was very soon clear that Morderwerk/Anthriel was not a good fit with ASWP. He would announce to us on corp chat that he was going off to kill noobs. I suggested to him that was not what we were about, but I don't think it deterred him. He would talk in corp chat, but he didn't really join in our conversations. Since the rest of us have known each other for six years, that is understandable.
Then a couple of days ago Anthriel/Mord left ASWP and sent Eyw Guyandotte an EVE-mail saying so. I looked up his info and noted that he was then a member of Hellfire Empire -- the same corp to which Ravenheart belongs.
And then Bonnie convoed me and told me he's heard that Mord/Anthriel has a bounty on his head and he intends to collect it.
In an attempt to settle the matter privately, I sent an EVE-mail to Ravenheart under my Eyw Guyandotte account, as C.E.O. of ASWP, explaining the identities of Mord/Anthriel and of Bonnie LaRue. I know of at least one other ASWP member, who has known Bonnie for six years, as have I, who has also written to Ravenheart on the matter. Ravenheart apparently has chosen to discount our communications and believe what she wants to believe.
And now I see this thread and another on EVEPortal forums where Ravenheart is accusing Bonnie of being Morderwerk, and I know that not to be the case. I have met the man behind Bonnie LaRue, and his wife, and his two daughters. They have spent the night under my roof. They are honorable people of excellent character.
And they are not Morderwerk. Or Anthriel.
Case closed.
