And I wrote this so much better yesterday! But then I forgot to hit "post" and closed my browser window... it's a fate of at least 1 in 10 good posts.
On to business, First, off, as I have already stated, I am an alt, but I will not be a troll, more that I will use this persona as my primary means of communication for this endeavor. I suppose subterfuge suits this idea well, so I will enjoy that until otherwise revealed.
I've been playing Eve on and off for since late 2005ish, I started as most people do, going directly into a nullsec corp and fighting in some (for the time) major wars. From there I followed the next natural progression, returning to highsec to run level 4 missions, mine, and do care-beary things. Some might call this reverse progression; Well that as well as some unfortunate corp decisions drove me back into the pvp side of the house in pretty short order.
I was always too big of a softie (then) to just start pirating in the corps I was in, so in the middle of the night I left one side of space (down by provi) and moved all the way over to the other side of the galaxy and joined up with what was, for the time, a fairly well known pirate organization based out of Villirier (if I spelt that right.) in Placid. Times were great, up until Outbreak showed up to shut us down in a fairly rough manner.
I found the most fun in my time in eve flying with these guys, we flew down the pipe to camp 0.0 entry systems, roamed around and killed things at will, and it gave me ample time to fly around in my shit fit wolves, Ruptures, Cyclones and Typhoons. By the time I was done there I had narrowed down my focus in the game to all pvp. Since then I have done pretty much everything the PvP side of the house has to offer, from huge sov fights for systems all the way down to solo. But still I found myself wishing for that pirate corp, long since disbanded.
My main floated around a bit and I tried a bit of everything, from highsec mercing to WH and eventually settled back to smallish gang PvP. Somewhere around there I started getting interested in and doing more RP. Recently culminating in the startling discovery....
That I didn't want to do this endeavor with my main as I am much to attached to my current alliance. AND SO an alt got it's wings.
I don't yet feel particularly strongly about developing Gymir as a RPer just yet, instead I want to develop those things around him, like corp etc, before trying to make his backstory. For once I plan to try to integrate Gymir into the eve landscape a bit better, and so I came here, in hopes of getting good suggestions and feedback that will allow me to create the exo-pirate I always wanted to be.
Thanks for your time reading this, and I will see you in text or in space soon! Even though I am obsessed with the cube emote, I will go with this one instead.
