18 Jan 2018Erinia Scantyar
My name is Erinia Scantyar. I was nothing special. Doing some trading, courier missions and mining for the most part. It was a good life, but quite boring. I bought an Adder and went on an exploration tour through Musca Dark Region and the Coal sack Nebula. After that another tour to the Witchhead Nebula. It was exciting to explore those beautiful parts of the galaxy. But after a while I felt lonely out there all by myself and needed to get back to civilisation.Back among men I sold the collected data from my exploration tours and wondered what I ahould do. I decided to do some more missions for various clients and get to know the major factions of the galaxy a little better. Since I was born in an independent system the alliance seemed to be a great starting point, but it didn´t work out as planned and I went on. The federation... urgh! too much corruption. The empire with their slavery practices didn´t seem very appealing either.
What should I do?
I decided to delay my decision for the time being. More money never hurts, right? On a courier-delivery I first came into contact with the empire in Zelano system. My Client gave me a very warm welcome and invited me to the bar on Mueller Station upon landing and delivering the goods. We had a good talk and emptied an entire bottle of whiskey. I learned a lot about the empire and became more and more curious. Especially the fact that treating slaves badly would result in a major loss of reputation and social standing for the master and could end in him becomming a slave as punishment was intriguing.
As I was about to return to my ship and move on my Client offered me another mission that was something completely different to everyrhing I had tried before: Bounty hunting for the imperial navy!
Now that would be interesting....
