My first character on Disco was actually made a very, very long time ago; Echo 7-7, made back in... v4.80. Blast from the past much? Note my original join date, I signed up back then but never read or posted.
It was a Nephthys with full Nomad guns, since back in those days, it was quite acceptable for a LN battleship to escort my Starflier out to the Omicrons in order (no pun intended) to set up a decent fighter. Yeah, there was no tech chart. I can't even remember if there were IDs.
I stopped playing simply because I got bored of Freelancer in general and didn't know the true scale of Disco's awesomeness.
This time round, when I finally got back into it, the somewhat infamous BakaKoneko got me into Ageira by forum recruitment; my first ship was my Ageira trader, the Black.Mountain, now the Chornohora. Was given a Camara, I worked my way up to Heron. I don't trade with it much since I now also have a Mastodon (or five - shared, of course), but it is more fun to fly when checking out new potential trade routes.
