Mister Harris,

While I'm quite curious what House you flew for, ultimately it is of little consequence. The Guild welcomes comers from all backgrounds and all walks of life so long as they believe in our core philosophy of independence, equality, and freedom for all peoples. The goals you state as being your motivating factors are noble ones that align quite well with those of the Guild as a whole, and as such we are delighted to accept you as one of us. Make your way to Camp Lister on Pecos at your earliest convenience -- be sure to bring several layers of well-insulated winterwear -- and we will help you get settled in with the local community so that all the fundamental groundwork can begin.

Welcome to the Independent Miners' Guild. Together, we can and we shall build a brighter future.

Jhilmal Asher
General Manager, IMG Main Body

> Name: Hitesh Vadra
> Age: 34
> Qualifications: BMM mining operations, BMM security operations
> Biography:

• I signed on for BMM's security division in 818 because I wanted to ensure the Crown continued to operate despite Gallia's advance. Following the end of the war I transferred to their mining division and even managed to land myself a nice little home on Sprague. Because of my seniority I was allocated a comfortable piece of real estate in one of the well developed areas, but I'm not blind to the state of the rest of the colony. I see what BMM and the BPA do on my daily commute, and I no longer wish to be associated with them and this chapter of Bretonian history.
  

> Application message:

• I have over 16 years experience as a senior security officer and Hegemon captain in one of your competitor companies, and I wish to bring that experience to a more well-intentioned organization.

Mister Vadra,

Your story, in its broadest strokes, is quite common. The unusual part is for someone who actually profited from, rather than suffered under, BMM's practices within Bretonia to realize the flaws of the Old Company's practices and protocols. Yet privilege does not necessarily preclude conscience. As such, please make your way to South Shields Refinery at earliest convenience for a brief interview, upon successful conclusion of which I expect you will be granted one of our signature fire-insulated synthfur coats and full access to standard Guild-internal resources.

Welcome, Mr Vadra, to the Independent Miners' Guild. Let us create a more just society together, and profit both ethically and sustainably along the way.

Jhilmal Asher
General Manager, IMG Main Body

> Name: Asuna Akibara
> Age: 29
> Qualifications: Cyberwarfare, Cybersecurity, information security, Snubcraft Operations, Transport Operations
> Biography:

• I hail from Planet Kyushu, and was born in 805 AS. My parents at a young age, decided to move to Planet Erie in 817. When I graduated from High School in 818, I went on to work a internship at Ageira, which later found me defecting to work with the Lane Hackers after a Xeno ambush in Kepler destroyed the transport they were on, and I grew disinterested in working with Ageira any further. After some of the girls in my cell went all in on the Orange Dream, and insisted I join in, I gave up. I ended up laying low at Freeport 14 for the past few years, doing side jobs to get by.. some.. I'm not particularly proud of. I decided that since my old contacts didn't try to kill me in my sleep or drag me back to Mactan to drug me up, I'm safe enough to try and start again. Ergo, I guess my best bet is to work with the Guild.

> Name: Maera Greene
> Age: 25
> Qualifications: Logistics is my day job! It's what funds my obsessions and hobbies.
> Biography:

• I was born in the Omicrons on Freeport 11 to parents that worked in the bowels of the system. We had a relatively happy life, but like any parents who wished they were doing better themselves, they saw that I would have a chance to get out of the Freeport to explore the universe. They got me into some piloting classes, where I fell under the wing of a retired pilot. (I'm not sure she actually retired, to be honest. Maybe just switched goals.) After a few years of learning flying - and how to deal with all the different types of people in space - I started taking jobs on my own as a Freelancer. Move this here, that to the edge of space - etc, etc. While I enjoy the work, I'd be lying if I said that flying no colors can be scary at times. No one really hates you, but no one really trusts you either - which is why I'm here. I want to be a part of something with a goal that's bigger than me just taking jobs so I can eat and buy more plants.
  

> Application message:

• Since learning to pilot, I've spent most of my time traversing the lanes between systems on one odd job after another. I've learned the ins and outs of who is who and who to just pay when they knock my ship out of a lane. I'm able to work independently and make my own deals if I don't have any orders for transport from the guild. I've only been at this for a few years though so I expect I still have a lot I can learn from your people which I'm looking forward to.

> Name: Douglas Gluttenburg
> Age: 27
> Qualifications: Iridium mining operation in Delta for 2 years, Hegemon license.
> Short Biography & Application message:

• Born and raised in the Omicrons, I’ve always been fiercely attached to the Zoner ideal of independence. You might wonder—why the IMG? Well, my passion lies in breaking rock, and my home is my trusty Hegemon.
  
  Unfortunately, the Omicrons have become far too dangerous for me, especially with the increasingly aggressive local fauna. To make matters worse, the only Zoner mining operation is situated in one of the most hazardous regions.
  
  As I made my way back to a more civilized sector, I stopped at Freeport 1, where I was introduced to the values of the Independent Miners Guild. From there, I was directed to the Coronado system, where they were in need of a copper miner as they face shortage from time to time.
  
  Currently, I’m working on refining my skills and adapting to the techniques and precision required for copper mining while awaiting the outcome of my candidacy with the Guild.

OORP PART:

---

Reasons for joining, if applicable (ooRP): 1) I need my daily line of copper 2) I already mine copper as solo img, so might as well join the official faction as the more the merrier!

Mister Gluttenburg,

The Guild has long had a friendly relationship with Zoners of all stripes. If you are a long-time resident of the Edge, you may even remember our humanitarian assistance to Freeport 11 in the face of the Core's unjust aggression. We share the kind of bond with the various Zoner societies that is borne from our shared spirit of independence, the love of doing things our own way. Your experience aboard the Hegemon-class is a valuable skill, and perhaps your knowledge of iridium extraction would be of benefit to the Guild as well.

Regardless, needless to say that you are fully welcomed into the Independent Miners' Guild. The lads at Pecos have already put together a welcome package for you and your crew, and it has been shipped to Cyprus in Inverness, where, if you would be so kind as to report, you and your crewmates will be fully onboarded into the IMG and given what you might need to start profiting for yourselves and for the entirety of the Guild.

Welcome, Mr Gluttenburg, to the Independent Miners' Guild.

[INCOMING TRANSMISSION]
Origin: Tau-23 Sector // Java Station
Vessel ID: Star Runner – Civilian Freighter
Call Sign: DJ-047
Sender: Capt. Dave Johnson
Signal Type: Narrowband – Encrypted

To the Recruitment Command of the Independent Miners Guild,

This is Captain Dave Johnson, age 43, transmitting from Tau-23. I’m submitting this message as a formal request to join the ranks of the IMG.

I’ve spent over two decades flying through the edge worlds — Liberty, Bretonia, and now Tau space. For the last few cycles, I’ve been operating the IronBack_Haulerr, a reinforced mining and cargo vessel, focusing primarily on resource extraction in the Tau-23 belt.

I haven’t been doing it alone. My mining partner and I have been working side by side out here — splitting hauls, covering each other’s backs, and dealing with the occasional pirate harassment. We’ve run our ops clean and honest, and when the Outcasts show up, we don't run — we hold our ground.

The IMG's reputation for independence, self-sufficiency, and community is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I'm not here for quick creds or corporate ties — I’m looking to join something solid. A real crew. A Guild with principles.

I’ve got the experience, the ship, and the mindset. I’m not green. I don’t panic. And I believe in doing the job right, even when it’s hard.

If there’s a place in the IMG for a steady pilot with years in the belt and a good man at his side, we’re ready to prove ourselves.

Awaiting your response. Channel open, signal clean.
