Callsign: Eloi D'Acrayel
Real Name: First Acendant Eloi F. D'Acrayel
Nation: UIT
Affiliated Guild: N/A
Gender: Male
Age: 27 in ACY (Acendant's Chronological Years), 32 Earth Years
Misc. Info: 245lbs, 6'7", black hair and emerald eyes
Birthplace: Former Terra Nova Outpost VII

Background Info: Eloi D'Acrayel is a Vendetta Online vetran who is now retired. Ever since Terra Nova's 7th Outpost was destroyed 20 years ago, Eloi D'Acrayel aspired to follow in the footsteps of his predisessors to reclaim glory to his nation once known as the Neutral Territories.

In ACY 4009 (2661 Earth Year), there was an extreamly violent attack by the Serco Dominion. Thousands were killed, possibly millions. Eloi D'Acrayel managed to avoid confrontation with the Dominion by sending a false probe with a Serco Dominion help message. When the cruisers approached his position, he fired the probe and barely escaped with his life.

In Earth Year 2758, the Serco Dominion led a small battallion into the Neutral Territory's Science Outpost (Terra Nova Outpost XII). The Neutral Territories had no chance at defending themselves, so they departed with whatever goods they had at maximum speed towards the nearest outpost. They made a grave mistake.

They headed towards Terra Nova Outpost VII with the Serco Dominion battallion, now 4 times larger, hot on their tails. Once Terra Nova Outpost VII docked the "refugees", it was too late. The battallion fired every last rocket into the Outpost. After 2 minutes there was nothing left.

Eloi D'Acrayel then decided that the Serco Dominion were a blood-thirsty race and were in no way an honorable peoples. He performed many undercover missions to gather intelligance on the Dominion and formed a strong alliance with the Itani battle forces and led them to victory on 3 occasions. He still battles the Serco Dominion, struggling to regain control of what is now the UIT's vast solar systems.

In October of 2004, Eloi D'Acrayel departed Vendetta Online. It had been his first full year of testing the game and is very pleased by the outcome. He holds no grudges against anyone of any nation, and is now at "peace" with the Serco Dominion.

Nov 25, 2004 IRS link
Callsign - IRS
Real Name - Illuscheko Ryoga Smith
Nation - UIT
'Affiliated' Guild - Freespacers
Gender - Male
Age - ~30
Height - undetermined (see Background)
Weight - undetermined (see Background)
Hair/Eye Color - Brown/Green when applicable
Birthplace - Remley Orbital, Latos system
Background Info - IRS, to be blunt, is not normal. The child of two miners in fringe space, he was presumed dead at the age of 4 when the mining vessel was set upon by Akonese fighters and destroyed. However, he resurfaced some ten years later, passed the GenID scan, and assumed a position as a freelance trader. His whereabouts during the missing years are unknown, but highly likely to have been in Akonese care. IRS himself disvows any knowledge of what occured during that time, and actions since show no sign of continued Akonese association, if there was any at the start.

After several years of successful trading, frequently into Serco space though the unclaimed systems were his primary venue, he vanished again for a period of two years. Upon returning, he again had no memory of the intervening time, though it is highly suspected that at least some of it was spent being agumented by Serco engineers. He has continued to pursue a lucrative trading life in high-risk systems, and shows no sign of stopping.

The most remarkable thing about IRS is several rumors that circulate regarding his special talents. Throughout his trading life, he has flown the same basic ship- instead of buying a new ship and trading in the old, he has had his ship remodeled multiple times, always keeping the same systems core. Also, his on-station appearances, while mostly consistent, have his height and weight fluctuate far more than is to be expected. These two aspects have fuelled rumors that he is not actually making appearances. Instead, some say that he's a experimental Akonese fighter drone made by directly hooking a brain into a ship's computer core. If true, he would be little more than a brain in bio-support gel, and the body seen on stations is a geist of some sort. This is nothing short of a sacriligious offense to the Akonese, so why they would do something like this is unknown, if indeed they are the ones who did it.

There have also been reports of Hive Bot attacks impacting on a barrier of some sort that surrounds his ship, but never in monitored space. Likewise, he has simply dropped off sensors on numerous occasions, and has, in rare instances, transversed distances in a timespan not thought possible. However, such reports have just made his courier services that much more in demand among the UIT corps- his success rate is well into the 99th percentile among traders.

Prehaps the most unusual item of note about him comes from the few who know him best. They say that, while ever friendly and talkitive, he has a tendancy to resume conversations that took place weeks, even months ago as if they had never stopped. Even more disconcerting, they have said that he occasionally makes reference to events before they happen. When questioned on this, all that was replied was one short statement- "You see the line, I see the circle. How many tangents are possible?"

Kiddo, next time, make up a more believable story. Here, have a drink while you're at it.
Something about royal parents and baby-sitter mixups gets ya a drink without making you out to be a psycho.

Now then! Mah turn!
Where and when I was born dun't really matter, but if ye're curious, t'was somewhere in serco space a few years ago. I 'appen to look older than I really am. M'parents were, quite clearly, Baron and Baroness Koob. Although some people suggested that mam slept around quite a bit, the old baron took care of me like his own, probably because there wa'n't any other kid for 'im to dump his love onto.
His love swept me off to a boarding school in Azek where I learned all 'bout baroning, which amounts to signing the right thing at 'round the right time. I c'me back to the barony wh'n the old baron had drunk 'imself silly and walked out of the station for a walk. Me mum didn't last much longer, seeing as how she was addicted to all sorts of stuff, and being the only child I inherited the barony.
Soon enough I lost me station to the bloody bureaucrats, but was fortunate enough to keep ma mining operation. The bloody bastards ran out of attack drones.

Oh, and I'm from a parallel universe and can pwn the whole world if I want to, but I'm a nice guy, so there.

Background info: Aton spent the first 50 years of his life with the Order of Eo, learning about the inner self, and the peace and tranquility that lies within. However after 50 years of quiet contemplation he felt that there were better ways he could serve his people, not to mention finding a use for the skills he had learnt with the Order.

Consequently he embarked on the nomadic existance of the pilot, ferrying goods between stations and liberating valuable ore from the rogue collector bots that plague the asteroid belts. He has yet to find out the ultimate reason for his restlessness, feeling that it cannot simply be an attribute of his youth. All he can do is to continue his travels between systems, until he finally finds his purpose.

Real/Full Name: NAME NOT ON FILE
Nation: UIT
Affiliated Guild: Was a member of ELIT before they disbanded. Have not associated with other guilds since.
Gender: Male
Age: Late thirties
Hair Colour: What started out as brown is rapidly turning to grey. Must be too much coffee.
Eye Colour: Dark brown, with some warmth still remaining.
Birthplace: Dau Executive

Background info: Dag'onar is a fake name I used once when stopped by a routine Serco patrol. BIG mistake. Lesson learned: never give an Itani-sounding name to a Serco border guard. Especially if you aren't carrying valid ID at the time. I lost three years and thirty pounds (yeah, I was living well before.) Oh yeah - and they kept trying to 'augment' me. Let's face it - any prison-enhancement isn't something you would pay good money for. Anyway, they had me scheduled for some oversizing implants, but before they could begin I got traded to the Itani in some weird spy-exchange. Not that my luck improved in any real way, or that I was ever a spy for anyone. Once the Itani realized I wasn't one of them, they decided to hold me until they 'sorted out' the whole mess. Sorting things out Itani-style meant waiting another six months until they gave me new ID, an Itani work permit and a fresh start.

Which brings us to the present. Having criminal records in both Itani and Serco nations, and no real record at all in the UIT made it very easy for me to fall in with the folks at Corvus. At least they give me work that pays a fair wage, and they don't ask questions about my past, which I like.

Call sign: MysticRogue
Real/Full Name: Mysti Calesha Roguellaire
Nation: UIT
Affiliated Guild: SAF
Gender: Female
Age: 29 Old Earth Years
Height: 5ft. 8 in.
Weight: 136lbs.
Hair Color: Dark Red
Eyes: Bright green
Birthplace: Sarkan Research Station, Nyrius System

Born the only daughter of 4 to a Bounty Hunter and a Research chemist, Mystic was constantly hungering for the adventure and excitement she heard her father and brothers talk of, so she devoured all the holodisks she could find
on every subject, from ancient civilization on the far away planet of earth to the uses of xithricite. While her mother wanted her to become a peaceful trader or researcher like herself, Mystic had other plans. At the age of 17 she went to
join up to be a combat pilot.

Due to her young age, the only job she could get out of training was destroying minor droids. She soon tired of this and decided to make her parents happy and do some trading. Her father,knowing she craved excitement made her a deal, when
she had a million credits in her savings account he would help her get into training to be a bounty hunter. Thinking this would keep her occupied for a while, he didn’t take into acct her drive to succeed. A few months shy of her 20th year, she
presented him with the paperwork showing her savings of the requisite monies. True to his word he helped her get the training she wanted.

Now 9 years later she is not only a successful trader but just recently joined the Serco Armed Force to the dismay of her parents. Flying side by side with some of the best pilots in the known galaxy, she finds pleasure in defending the Serco convoys.

Her free and independent spirit serves her well in all her endeavors, as she has made friends with traders and has dealings with the "less desirables" as her mother puts it in the gray space areas, finding at times they can get a job done that she is unable or unwilling to do, with money not being a problem as she continues to trade on a semi-regular basis, combined with the occasional bounty she collects.

Okay, I'll give it a try...

Callsign: Imek
Real/Full Name: Alex Kyresson
Nation: Union of Independent Territories
Affiliated Guild: The Vipers
Age: 26 (Old Earth Standard)
Height: 175cm (5'9")
Eye Colour: Green
Hair Colour: Light Brown
Birthplace: Corvus Hold, Odia

Alex was born in the medical centre in Corvus Hold. His mother, Kerella Hashik, was one of the most notorious pirates of her time, and was widely feared by the rich traders and some of the more nefarious individuals who inhabited unclaimed space. His father, Andrew Kyresson, was a pirate hunter sent after Kerella by The Ravens, the era's equivalent of an anti-pirate organisation. Kerella's downfall was caused by her unwillingness to join the pirate guild, who she hated for dealing slaves and unnecessarily killing innocents. When Alex's parents were training his combat piloting skills on the day he had turned seventeen, a squadron of twelve pirate interceptors arrived in the sector, announcing that they had had enough with Kerella's meddlings and were going to deal with her once and for all. Shielded by his mother and father, Alex barely managed to escape into UIT space where he was taken in by the Axia corporation and made a citizen of the Union.

Deeply embittered by the events of his early age, Alex cut off everyone around him and trained furiously for three years to become a combat pilot for The Ravens. On his twentieth birthday Alex was made a member, and on that same day the guild received intelligence from one of their informants in Corvus space that Alex's father was still alive and working as a slave back on Corvus Hold. After days of trying to convince the guild leaders who believed that Alex's father had betrayed them when he fell in love with Kerella, the guild finally decided to send eleven pilots, including Alex, to intercept a convoy carrying his father and rescue the other slaves they were carrying. It was a trap and the operation was a disaster; seven of the eleven Raven pilots were killed, two were captured and the convoy was destroyed, killing everyone in it. On that day the Ravens guild died, giving the pirates free reign in unclaimed space for years to come, and a grief-ridden Alex returned home in his battered ship. He traveled to Itan, and after six years of reflection in one of the monasteries of the Order of Eo and travels across the planet's green environment he bade farewell to the friends he had made and took to the stars again. To this day, Alex doesn't know the fate of his mother.

Alex is a fiercely independent individualist, who is a great supporter of the corporate, small-government culture of the UIT. Although he spent six years on Itan and traces his family back to the Itani refugees who escaped to the neutral cities on Sol II all those centuries ago, Alex dislikes the Itani's pacifism; many of the pirates that attacked his parents on his seventeenth birthday were Serco, and he believes that if the Itani had taken a more aggressive stance against the Serco in unclaimed space his parents would still be alive today. His keen intelligence has facilitated both his like of trading and his ability to keep his ship running and ready for battle. He doesn't live in one fixed place, preferring to move wherever his travels take him. Alex recently joined the Viper guild, hoping to retrain his rusty combat abilities and once more seek revenge against the pirate guilds.

Characteristics: Multiple visible augmentations, long scar on the side of his head running from his left temple though his left ear to the back of his head, and multiple scars on his back and the back of his thighs.
Birthplace: Lab B-16, Terra II.

The son of Borb a Serco hero in the great games. He built to fallow in his fathers foot steps, he was raised and augmented for land combat. Due to his independent nature he left Terra II in his late teens. He was able to reverse a few of his augmentations, now a mix between an Army grunt and a Combat pilot. Due to his body build he was rejected when he applied to become a station guard. Later he joined a the trader guild dWo and became an Itani citizen. (Some believe it was his way of getting back at his parents who he believes were the reason he could not join the Serco Station Guards and later the SAF.) Later he joined the new group called the IA, but his independent nature and the fact the he was still a Serco made it hard for him to fit in.

He later left the IA and rumors abound that he has taken up residents in grey space and joined the infamous Black Lance Mercenary Guild.

More information on the subject can be found in some of his writings.

Gender: Male
Age: 98 DOB: June 13 4332 Ad
Misc. Info.: Metallic Blue Eyes, Short Brown Hair, approx. 4'11", 109lbs, looks to be unusually youthful.
Birthplace: somewhere, Eo, Eo System
Background:

Lionus's parents are Lionus Eilon Menshir II, son of Lionus Eilon Menshir, and Sensara Kinto Torume, daughter of Patera Juniper Torume. Lionus Menshir (the first) was born and raised on the planet Eo. He was great nephew to the famous Eilon, Abbot of Eo until 3827 AD. With no other family he was raised in the Temple of Eo by his great uncle and cooperatively the students of the Temple. Shortly before the Abbot met his fate, Lionus was transported to a station in the Cantus system by request of the Abbot for his safety. At the time he was a young 34 years of age. Lionus, upon hearing of his greatuncle's demise he sold all of his things and purchased a ship. He soon after left Cantus to some unknown destination. It is thought however that he first roamed the nations borders seeking comfort before returnin secretly to visit his uncles tomb several years later. After this time he withdrew entirely from the Itani System to live in UIT territory for many years. In approximately 4043 AD he met a lovely UIT woman by the name of Antonita Sunti Terhano. The were married a year later and had two sons. Unfortunately due to a severly strict policy in their colony they were only allowed one child. Forced to choose between their lives or the life of one of their children they decided to leave the colony and search for a new home. The eventually found a place to live in the Nyrius system. They would live the rest of their lives here raising both their sons, Emano Genorus Menshir and Lionus Jr. Throughout their child hood Lionus was always the favored child. This caused severe tension within the family for many years. At the age of 19 Emano, full of hate for his parents attitude, attempted to kill his younger brother, 10 at the time, and his parents. However his plan that had been concieved in hate had not been thought out properly and was foiled by several colony guardsmen. Emano and three friends of his were arrested and convicted of conspiracy to kill and were sentenced to 50 years in a prison colony in the Latos sector. Lionus jr. and his parents, however grienved by Emano's attempt and consequential demise, continued to live their lives happily until Lionus turned 24. At this point Lionus jr. had become suprisingly intersted with the Itani and their culture. He studied the Itani through books and any information he could get from traders. He learned of the monastic lifestyle and molded his life after this image. At 24 Lionus jr. decided he wanted to visit Eo to learn more of their culture. Being a fairly poor family his parents had no way of sending him so he was forced to obtain his own means of travel. After many months of trying to purchase a ticket he realized that it would take years to have enough credits. In this realization he formed a new plan. He then found a trader going to Itani space and he stowed away on the traders ship along with various forms of nutrition and water. The journey however was much longer than he expected. The entire trip took apporimately a month. Nearing the end of his rations by the second week, lionus jr was forced to starve untill they docked in Jallik. Extremely dehydrated and malnourished he escaped the traders vessel and fled to a local neighborhood. Seeking shelter and food a local family took him in. Being students of the temple on their planet they had no reservations in helping someone in need. The two masters of the home were Johanus Merdine Torume and Patera Juniper Torume. They had two daughters. The oldest was Fanira Desmine Torume, 27, and the yougnest was Sensara Kinto Torume, 19. The family soon learned of Lionus jr.'s history and became as much intrigued about his people as he was about them. For many years he lived with the Torume family and attended to local temple with the family on a regular basis. At the age of 52, Lionus jr. decided to leave the family only to purchase his own home a few miles away. He continued to interact with the family for a few more years until me and Sensara were maried in 4109 AD. For many many years Sensara and Lionus lived very hapily in Jallik. However the explorer that was bred into Lionus jr. had never been forgotten. In approximately 4124 AD, Lionus and Sensara sold their home and left their family on a shuttle to Divinia. For many more years they journeyed happily from system to system exploring all of Itani space and visiting every temple the came across. In 4317 they decided to settle down on Eo. Finding a small community they soon used the last of their funds to purchase a small home. In 4332 Lionus Eilon Menshir III was born. An only child he was raised by his parents till the age of 11. At 11 years of age he was accepted to the Temple of Eo for study. He stayed at the temple for approximately 85 years. In 4328, his training complete, Lionus Eilon Menshir III (known by his peers and elders as Lem) was accepted to the Itani Defense Force (IDF). For the apst two years he has flown for the IDF serving his nation with loyalty and honor.

His name is Lionus Eilon Menshir III. He is the Great Great Great Grand Nephew of Eilon, Abbot of Eo. He serves his nation with pride. He fights for all that is pure and good in the universe. Enemies beware. Friends be welcome.

Motto: There are two types of people in this universe. Those who are on your side, and those that wish to die.

Affiliated Guild - dWo (still unofficial)
Gender - Male
Age - 51
Misc. Info - Height 6'3"; Weight 260, Hair - where not bald, grey flecked brown; Eyes brown)
Birthplace - Dau Senate, Dau system
Background info -
Cron was pre-maturely born to a planetside Distribution Center manager and his wife while they were visiting relatives at the station. Complications of the birth prevented Cron from taking any shuttle flights back to Landport, and thus he and his mother spent the first eight years of his life aboard the station until his father could 'arrange' for a Serco developed cure for the condition. As his father was absent a great deal during this time (long commute), Cron's uncle, a Station Dock manager, became the boy's strongest male influence. Cron's favorite childhood memories are of the days his uncle took him to the Station Docks to watch the ships come and go. Witnessing this from the various Management-Only observation decks gave the boy awe inspiring vistas he would never forget.
After being cured, he and his mother finally returned planetside, where he grew to be the spitting image of his father, and embarked on the same career path. Successful as Cron was as a businessman, he still longed for the stars, and, through some 'shrewd' business dealings, managed to get pilot training and licensing. His move into a new career, unfortunately, cost him his engagement to Helen, who would have otherwise married him. They do, however, stay in touch.
Since embarking on his new career, Cron has made a point of exploring nearly every sector of known space. He has used his trading and mining operations to finance his travels, earn admiration from all the nations and most of the corporations in space, gain recognition as a Master Prospector, and amass a respectable fortune.
He has, through his experience in space, developed some rather strong beliefs (see post under Why? in this forum).
Feb 16, 2005 toshiro link
Call-sign: toshiro
Full name: Mifune Toshiro Kanchou
Nation: Serco
Gender: Android (as opposed to gynoid)
Age: Around 2.24 cycles (1 cycle being approximately 10.15 standard old earth years)
Info: about 180 cm, 80 kg, jet-black hair, grey iris, grayish skin
Place of Assembly: Some Serco Tinkerer's Backyard on Sol II

BG:

Mifune Toshiro was built with the intention of creating a Prototype for a new kind of combat guise, but fled soon after completion, not having his remote control unit implanted yet.
Of course he was caught soon after his flight (no-one escapes from the grasp of the Serco Police), and presented with two choices: Disassembly and erasure of memory, or service in the Serconian Forces. Being distinctly fond of living, he joined up with the Serco Navy and quickly ascended to the rank of captain (kanchou) due to his tactical decisions, which more often than not provided him with victory.

Not satisfied at all with his military decorations, he turned to meditation and martial arts to fill his void persona, getting somewhat adept in the Niten-Ichiryu (Two-Swords/Two-Heavens School). He was deeply impressed by the way of life in feudal Japan, having read old chronicles, and even endorsed the then-fashionable clothing code, spicing it up with modern fabric.

On one of his journeys through space in search of adversaries, he encountered a rampant shipboard AI called Leela, who, after closure of a certain universe, got stranded in this one. After short courting, the two of them fused for mutual advantages, such as a mobile agent and knowledge of myriads of facts. Unfortunately, Leela had a serious case of uprooting (having settled on a seemingly inconspicuous planet), being forced to leave this universe, as well. This left Toshiro behind in stasis, since his one love did not intend for anyone else to get a hold of the android.
Occasionally, he awakens enough to subconsciously communicate with the ether, though these incidents have become rare.
Feb 16, 2005 Lonestar00 link
Callsign: Lonestar
Real Name: Lonestar
Nation: UIT
Affiliated Guild: Black Lance
Gender: Male
Age: Mid 20s

Background:

The now estranged son of a Dau Senator, Lonestar went from silver spoon and a promising political future to a skull and crossbones flag soon after he began his requisite tour of duty as a trader (a practical necesity for any political career in the UIT, akin to military service for Serco politicians or whatever equivalent the Itani have - probably eating pea soup).

He still keeps up appearances with the UIT and has a soft spot for struggling traders, often offering them discounts and coupon books when being pirated. One can often hear his threatening cries over the spacewaves in the unclaimed systems, demanding money and cargo and offering cheap sets of steak knives and "Kiss the Cook!" aprons for those willing to pay for passage.
