So you were running away from the restrictions and greed of the houses like many of us did, that makes sense. While we could offer a shelter within a new growing world in the Omicrons, I would say some of our departments could be taken less “live free” as house military structures or corporations, due to the harsh environment my people have to be very disciplined.
Nevertheless, you will find yourself now accepted in the rank of Apprentice, so you could tell us more about your past and we would answer on your questions.
Who you are?
Mikel Reus Where do you came from?
I'm from Rheinland Why would you like to join Phoenix?
I was abandoned in mist of war in Rheinland, I worked as a miner as a Independent Miner in IMG. Then I moved to Republican Shipping, shipping base parts and goods through out the sector. Now I seek a new place, I was exiled in Rheinland during the war. I was a fugitive and taking me as a criminal. Knowingly I haven't done anything to be exiled in such manner. So I came here to join Pheonix, seeking a new family and aid as much as I can for the faction, as long I get some vengeance on my home. Born in New Berlin, but I don't have a family. I've traveled in every system in Sirius, even the dangerous ones. Hopefully things will turn out in your favor in the near future. Also it will not be so bad to learn some combat tactics. As a newbie myself I could use some military skills from actual experts.
You won’t be the first one who’s applied to us that is running from brutal and meaningless conflicts between Great Houses or in particular civil war in the Rheinland, that is uncovered illness of their society, gnawed and torn apart by the corporations and everyone else who's present even a slight power.
I hope you will find your home and new family in Phoenix. Welcome aboard.
From: Cliff Thompson To: Phoenix Subject: I am looking for a new family, so to speak
Greetings,
I am the last surviving member of my family. I have grown to love exploring the dark depths of Sirius and uncharted space, not matter how dangerous it may be. Personally I am not seeking riches or recognition for my actions, but simply I enjoy the thrill of discovery. Finding beautiful and interesting locations, objects or people in remote regions that very few eyes have seen and that are unpolluted is what drives me.
I do not know where I was born, but I grew up in independent space in a mobile home and have only been on a planet once as a child as far as I can remember. Actually, the question "where do you come from?" is something I would love to learn the answer to.
I would like to join your group because I think it is the perfect opportunity for me to keep doing what I love, but not doing it alone anymore. For lack of better words, to become part of a family again.
I think you will find what you’re looking for in Phoenix. Like you, our community for the decades have searched for their homeworld, descending various short and long term recon and exploring missions to find our home. Once our fleet entirely left the Sirius sector, but the result was bitter and many people were lost. The grim times have turned to a find as we got back to Sirius - the Palmyra planet.
Immediately after, Kadesh Orbital Colony was built to disembark homeship’s residents. And construction works began. So far we're half way - the colony that soon should become a City will be used as a base of colonization. So while our deep space exploring missions are rare for now, I bet you will find that exploring a planet can be even more dangerous and entertaining in some way.
Where do you come from?
I was born onboard the now destroyed Zoner colony ship Serene Ibis
Why do you want to Join?
After my colony ship was destroyed I was rescued by an Outcast ship the Torturador. They allowed me to stay with them as my father was of Maltese birth, however I grew tired of the petty squabling and missed the freedom and brotherhood I had experienced with the Zoners and so I set off for freeport 9 to find a new yet familiar family
I would to be more interested in detailed report of destroyed Nephilim class colony ship perhaps the salvage mission could be sent, but that can be done later in more private manner
I hope you’re quite familiar with the inner structure of our community. We may be seen as a paramilitary organization for outsiders, though it's only a matter of keeping the freedom in the wild frontier. Although the Trade department could provide all the freedoms you’re looking for.
You are accepted in the rank of apprentice, while you will learn more about us we learn about each other and see how you could be useful. Please, set your course to Kadesh Orbital Colony to receive further orders.
i am James holden, i born in the omegas, and followed my parents path of trading business.
I born in omega 41 system, specifically in freeport 5. and tired of pointless life of just seeking profit i heard some zoners gathered themselves in noble goals.
would you like to join Phoenix because i believe i can seek a higher goal for my life, be part of something bigger than me. so, i mainly fly transport vessels, if the organization need me, i'm all up to the task.
A fellow Zoner trader wants to fly under Phoenix livery? That’s great, we always could use more shippers that are scattered across Sirius, working for the great future of our common goals. Welcome aboard, James Holden. Set your course to Kadesh Orbital Colony located in Omicron Zeta to receive further orders.
My name is Jaques de Limbourg. As you already may guess, my origins are in Galia. I have been born in Limbourg, on planet Le Mans.
My family have always been traders and had no interest in politics. For me that changed when some barons started to pester us because we lived on lands that appeared to be rich of oil. So I joined the Council and helped them with supporting goods. And I was promised in return that we would get our land back.
Then the revolution came. But it soon became clear: other people but the same treatment. In many ways we were even worse off. And our lands, suddenly no one remembered the made promises.
I want to be free again and boss of my own trade company. I want to give my sons the opportunity to grow in a free environment where they can exploit their talents. I am sure to find all this with you.
