I have a neural interface jack. Let me tell you, those things are not cheap. All things considered, there were better ways to pay it off than to haul my backside offworld. However, I think things have changed enough to consider putting my spacefaring gear back to work..
I've been out of the loop for... oh around five years now. No uplinks, no time in the capsule, just five years on fringe colonies doing good work for simple people. So tell me cappers, what did I miss? |

Concord now needs a mugshot from everyone before you're filed into the capsuleer inetrface system again. As you lack a portrait, this shows you haven't been cleared by Concord yet to fly your starship.
On changes: lots, political landscape is shifted alot.
I let the political versed explain the changes in the political jungle.
I'll let you know you did miss alot, some highpoints (the 4 nations banding against sansha, again!) and the lowpoints (the turnmoil over the Caldari & Minmatar aggression, more exactly Caldari conquering Caldari Prime again and Minmatar shutting down concord briefly to extract their lost tribe from Amarr space without Concord intervention) Tons of other stuff, too, but surely people will fill you in in alot more detail! |

Thank you for the prompt reply Ms. Perkone.
As you have so astutely noticed, my license is indeed up for renewal. Something I intend to deal with in the next few days, however, the glass of spiced rum to hand is probably good reason not to appy for the updated portrait right now.
Sansha's cult, I recall from way back when, though I never understood what exactly they were trying to achieve. The rest, I look forward to reading up on. There is only so much data you can assimilate as important on the frontiers. |

Looks like most of my life is now packed up into a corner of my Badger's hold. Life support modules are packed up near them in case I pick up any passengers beyond the usual capacity in crew paces; You would be surprised the number of shadly-looking people in suits want passage out-system with no questions asked.
I'll be honest with you. Since my kids have flown the nest and the wife off to greener pastures, it feels good to be traversing the void again.
This battered frame might not be much to look at, but by whatever gods you claim, it's mine.
My old name was Edward Storme. The nickname stencilled on my jacket is Link Joker. You're welcome. |

They used to tag me as an "Anti-Pirate" pilot.
Ship-to-ship combat isn't something that can be done easilly, especially not with the handful of crude, cheap, industrial implants running along my lower back and jacked into a multi-hub to jury-rig some sort of fire control. This chrome is not military-grade gear, kids. That doesn't preclude me from working with a couple of ex-navy WO's to through enough missiles at Rat clusters to make them think twice about attacking shipping lanes.
Even so, there are a few things I am actually willing to fight for. It's not that I can't fight, but rather I do not wish to take a life without good cause.
I've been thinking about the whole slavery/metriculation thing. More on this later, but right now, I have to supervisor the installation of some thousand plus military-grade berths. Beds, bunks, lockers, refectory facilities, and all the rest. (Military Contracts are the lifeblood of small time haulers in times of crisis.) |
