IC Description:
"The Amarr tried to 'Reclaim' us. They failed. Now it is time for us to reclaim who we once were. Freemen, roaming the wilds."
- The Thukker Chronicles : Exodus
Loke’s Shadow [ROKKR] is a group of Thukker outriders who primarily operate in null-security regions beyond the tribe’s home in the Great Wildlands. As outriders the corporation works independently of the caravans that form the core of the Thukker Tribe; as such Loke’s Shadow relies on raiding and smuggling to fund its undertakings and maintain mobility.
Who we are / what we are about (OOC info):
Loke’s Shadow is a Thukker roleplaying corporation and a member of the Rote Kapelle alliance. The aim of the corporation is to have a tight-knit group of outriders who are committed to excellence in small gang and individual combat. As part of Rote Kapelle our main emphasis is on small gang (~6-20 pilots) roaming primarily in null-sec (currently basing out of Syndicate), although we also visit low-sec and wormhole space on occasion. ROKKR is also involved in smuggling, both as defined by game mechanics (contraband) and as a function of players restricting access to areas of space (null-sec smuggling: i.e. shiny modules and ships). The corporation is eagerly anticipating the proposed change to smuggling gameplay which may give us yet another avenue for PvP engagements.
To facilitate PvP excellence our alliance forums and wiki have a plethora of information on ship fittings, tactics, and after action reports to help create even more pretty ship explosions for all to enjoy. Rote Kapelle is an NBSI alliance with an extremely limited blue list and is dedicated to small gang PvP in all conditions and at all times.
While Rote Kapelle is first and foremost a PvP organization, ROKKR is also a light roleplaying corporation, and as such we aim to provide our members with ample opportunities to participate in RP (if they so choose); both through in-game activities and in-character interactions.
As self-respecting outriders we do not mine ever and will not burden ourselves with the maintenance of static infrastructure like POS towers or anything associated with sovereignty.
What Loke’s Shadow offers:
- Frequent small gang PvP.
- PvP training (both via alliance resources and corporate leadership).
- Alliance logistics for getting assets in and out of theatre.
- Smuggling operations.
- Roleplaying opportunities.
- Jump Clones.
- Active killboard and forums.
What we require of recruits:
- Self-sufficiency: all members must be capable of keeping themselves in combat ships without corporate ISK-making activities. We do help reimburse losses during gangs from loot dropped, but that does not always cover costs.
- A focus on PvP with a willingness to constantly strive to improve performance and the maturity to listen to advice and criticism when it is presented.
- Interest in roleplaying (no previous experience required).
- Consistent participation in combat operations.
- Prospects must be 18 years or over.
- Has a working microphone and Teamspeak 3 capability.
Skillpoint Requirements:
At this time there are no explicit skillpoint requirements to join Loke’s Shadow, however we do not take trial accounts and expect around one to two months experience in game prior to joining. If accepted it is expected that applicants be willing to devote training time to flying an interceptor competently, if they do not have the skills already.
Applying to Loke’s Shadow:
Interested applicants should contact Misan Pal’taek in-game via either EVE-mail or the ‘Loke’s Shadow Public’ channel with any questions or to arrange an interview at a mutually convenient time.
Player Contacts & Channels:
Misan Pal’taek – CEO
‘Sjalfradr Hideaway’ – In-character public meeting place and lounge

True to the point that Bacch even has his own custom image macro on the KB now. http://www.rotekapelle.com/killboard/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=55939 8)
Thanks guys. :cube:

I'm thinking about using Sakuma to expanded my RP experiences outside of the Caldari club and this sort of thing might be what I'm looking for. Is there some place I can read up and become more Thukker savvy?

That has all the PF associated with Thukker. I may have to poke around and see if there are more recent chronicles with some additional info (which I believe there are). Can always poke me in-game to get any additional information or clarification on stuff too.

Thanks!

Oh wow, I remember talking to you briefly about this corp idea once. It's really cool to see it happen!

What Misan isn't telling you all is that a small Neut (or preferrably Nos) are mandatory to be fit on Vagabonds in the utility high.
It is rumoured that Bacch invented this to aid with fitting problems although this is unconfirmed.
(Yes this is a bump and a good luck wish)
-
+1 to epic corp idea.

I approve of blowing up fail-curses, flying Feroxen, and this corp. Would totally apply if I was subbed right now... (Even though I'm terribad)
-
Mother-thukkers.
-
Heh, thanks for all the encouragement. Had a brief hiatus due to Deus Ex but back to seriously recruiting now with the new forums up and everything.
-
Forum link? Or are they corp-member-only?
-
We use the alliance wide Rote Kapelle forums right now. I want to avoid making people need to check two separate forums just to keep up to date. Noted and added to the threads though, thanks.
-
Well here is a bump for you and a question.
BUMP!
And if you guys are really smuggling, how would Sai have heard about you IC? Cause she might need something like that soon.
-
Near the corp's infancy I did some (IC anyway) smuggling/transport of freed slaves from Amarr space back to the Wildlands. Maybe through that based on some of Rho's corp description. Otherwise we aren't too shy about what we do, so you could find advertisements for services if your character went looking in the right places (black markets etc).
I'm sure I could think up a couple other ways. Pending IGS (because there isn't a better venue) announcement about some stuff that might work as well.
-
Minor update: Decided that a "light roleplay" route made more sense for the corporation. OP updated accordingly.
