(]c[) Recruitment

[Stormblast]

:::Long-range communiqué system initiated:::

:::Transmission begin:::

My name is Terry Lentz and I am interested in joining the Zoners Trading Consortium. Currently, I'm flying a Gull civilian transport and working as an independent trader. My specialties are low-profile high-priority long and medium range transport missions. I wish to apply for a place in the Department of trade.

I am 42 years old, come from a dull planet called Denver (tough my parents are from Rheinland, hence "Lentz"), on which I had been living until I payed off my, now late, parents credit and earned enough for a ship of my own by doing round-the-law jobs for the highest bider.

That was in 803. AS. Since then, I've changed - I started to almost fully ignore all the piles of credits that were put in front of me. The money that used to corrupt me. At first, I needed it to help my parents, but after a while, it engulfed me, I just kept on doing what I knew was bad and made a fortune - my own Colossus. When I finally bought the ship I always dreamed of, and finally when the Fortuna's finger started to smile at me, and finally when I got the chance to come clean and start a legal business, bang - the Liberty Police came knocking down my doors at my house on Denver.

15 years. I got out after 8, on parole with nowhere to go, good behavior they say, well I say not enough prison facilities. Luckily, a friend of mine, who owed my a favour, was passing by through Texas the day I was being released from Sugarland (A sweet place indeed) and heard on the comm a name he wished he had forgotten. He helped me out, gave me a ship and a few credits to spend and we parted.

Upon completing a neon run to Freeport 10, I decided not to return to Liberty and start anew as a Zoner. I'm still on Freeport 10 and I'm drinking my scotch. But I feel lonely. I want to be a part of something big and new. I want to be a part of the Zoner Trading Consortium.
