What is your story – A small character biography: >Born in Liberty, raised on border world transport ships. At a young age the ship I was on was attacked by Wild snub pilots, was able to escape with a few members of the crew, but my family died. We were picked up be an Order cruiser and after that was dropped off on one of the nearest stations that the Order had control on. Since then, I did I could to stay with the order. They have saved my life and I want to help them fight these alien scum. I have spent my life learning the ways and tactics of the Order to do what I can help them.
Since a cruiser was the class of ship that saved my life, it is the class of ship I wish to serve on and maybe one day command. The Nomads are the main threat of Sirius and they need to be dealt with. I find it very strange that the houses have seem to have forgotten the threat they pose. I wish to do my part in pushing the Nomads back and kick them out of our home.<
What made you interested and why do you want to join E\V/: >I have known Alucard for a long while, and we talk about things between blood dragons and order quite often, and the Order is one of the factions that I have always wanted to play.<
What you mostly do and what do you prefer in Freelancer: >I mostly trade, but I really enjoy PvPing when with the right group. Win or lose it is really fun with the right people. I also mine from time to time as well.<
What is your story – A small character biography: Once a dedicated freelancer, my journey began with a relentless quest to find and join "The Order." My early days were spent navigating the perilous Edge Systems, trading with the Zoners, and seeking the elusive jump hole that would bring me closer to The Order’s domain. Through perseverance, I eventually made contact with The Order. Performing numerous missions, I proved my worth and rose through the ranks to become a fighter pilot. My combat prowess led to my promotion to captain, and I was entrusted with commanding a "Geb" Assault Cruiser. My primary mission took me to Tau-61, where I investigated attacks on Gallic forces by the "Vaigrants," a formidable variation of the "Nomads." To this day, I traverse the Sirius Sector, avoiding House Space, and fortifying our front against the Nomad threat.
What made you interested and why do you want to join E\V/: During my endeavors, I encountered a member of the Eclipse Vanguard. Their compelling account of the faction’s mission and the urgent call for reinforcements resonated deeply with me. Their dedication to combating the Nomad menace and their strategic operations align perfectly with my own goals and experiences.
What you mostly do and what do you prefer in Freelancer: My primary activities involve patrolling the Sirius Sector in my Battlecruiser, engaging alien threats, and conducting reconnaissance missions. Additionally, I undertake occasional trading missions, which support my operational needs and provide strategic advantages in our ongoing conflict. Mostly PVE.

What is your story – A small character biography: >My father worked as a miner extracting various ores and minerals to provide for my mother and me. The move from Bretonia was quite painful, but it was necessary because my father was offered a well-paid Iridium mining contract in Omicron Delta. It was about when I was 14 and I spent the rest of my life on Freeport 11. Since early childhood, they tried to bring me up in strict discipline, so even having huge amounts in my account so that I could transfer them to another account, I did not allow myself to spend this money on my personal needs and also unconditionally obeying the will of my parents, so I very well follow the orders that I was entrusted with, in fact, unconditionally. As a result, it was decided to send me to the nearest cadet school where I was trained to handle weapons and pilot fighter jets. My knowledge was used to protect my father during his mining flights. Of course, he had a guard who protected him before, but I wanted to hone my skills and be closer to my father, who was often at work rather than at home.
The turning point happened about 10 years ago. Flying once again for ore, we waited so long for my Father to finish, but suddenly a large Nomads ship appeared out of nowhere. I have already seen similar ones in simulations and in the window of the porthole when there were fights near the Freeport. Fleeing, the guard's ship was destroyed, as well as he himself, without having time to eject. My father steered his ship directly at the alien, broadcasting his last words on the radio that I would save myself and take care of my mother. Seeing his ship explode into small pieces and with it a considerable part of the alien's ship, with tears in my eyes, turned the ship around and flew away.
The day I told my mother about it, she couldn't stand the loss and committed suicide in the bathroom when she sent me to buy alcohol. That day, I finally broke down after losing two people I loved at once and drank 3 bottles of whiskey out of grief. All these years until today, I have been working as a bounty hunter, trying to drown out the pain and sadness of catching criminals by killing them and drinking alcohol.
It was only relatively recently that I learned about your organization from the rumors in the bar. The hope that I can avenge my parents and expel the Nomads from the Sirius Sector forced me to pull myself together and start searching for your organization. The idea that I can carry out not only my own retribution, but also those who cannot do it and those who will never be able to do it only strengthened my desire to join you. And on this fateful day, I am writing with the idea of becoming part of those who are fighting against those who have long deserved extermination and the hope of becoming part of your organization.<
What made you interested and why do you want to join E\V/: >This organization helped me after mine break from games around 2 years and I want do it for someone who also like me return back in game and lost almost everything except hope.<
What you mostly do and what do you prefer in Freelancer: >Before break: RP; Snub fighting; little bit cap fighting; spying and trading.<
