Folder Name: Profiles - Confidential File Name: Profile: Ayakashi Date of Creation: 03.03.835 (Edited: 18.03.835)

Profile: Agent Ayakashi. Name: Unknown Alias: Ayakashi / Aya Personal Number: 127-662236-C Age: Unknown Residence: New Tokyo, presumably near the Kōkyo District Primary Affiliation: KOI Secondary Affiliation: Myself Additional Notes: Received education in Liberty, stayed there for several years (LIkely around the same time as myself) Fullest dedication to the Empire. Dignified, prideful. Considerate and helpful far beyond her duties. Can be distracted surprisingly easily. At least I have no problems doing so. Received acting classes which she seamlessly translates into her daily duties. Likely to align with my ideals of progressiveness. Low Alcohol tolerance. Tough to get out of her work mindset. Making progress. 18.03.835 - She declared to try and challenge our security system in an attempt to reach this very datavault. Might be a good opportunity for some fun and testing the non-lethal traps. - Also promised to teach me a KOI trick for on-spot meditation. Sounds like a skill always useful. Sunekosuri Gold Clearance. Intended long-term plan: Make her mine. Bend her loyalty to be first and foremost towards me.

Profile: Imperial Majesty, the Emperor Kogen Tetsuya Name: Tetsuya Kogen of the Nara Branch Titles: His Imperial Majesty, Emperor of Kusari Age: 64 Residence: Kōkyo District, Imperial Palace Notes: Shogun Yamato and his Imperial Majesty are friends in private. His Imperial Majesty very rarely harbors guests without Yamato-sama being present. His Imperial Majesty to this day has not forgiven my previous occupation with the Republican Government. He honors my personal assistance to the peace negotiations of that time though. He never gave his reasons for elevating a woman like myself to such a high position. Local nobility or not, he broke with traditions in a sense. Then again, this position did not exist until the reunification in the first place. Everyone including myself expected him to deny it. His Imperial Majesty has a weakness for Gyu-tan, which is incredibly hard to come by since the sole producer of Ox tongue are on Planet Cambridge these days. His Imperial Majesty once told me the Queen of Bretonia regularly sends him local Bretonian tea specialties, with himself sending various of our own tea types back in return. This tradition apparently started with then Emperor in exile Jien Kogen-sama during the brief period the exiled Imperial Forces assisted Bretonia against Gallia. His Imperial Majesty shared a secret about former Emperor Jien Kogen-sama with me. Due to their demise in Exile, he was laid to rest at an undisclosed location on Planet New London at first and later transferred to Planet New Tokyo after the civil wars conclusion. His Imperial Majesty feels a personal bond to the House of Bretonia. As of 832, 27 years old Taiga Kogen-sama, nephew of his Imperial Majesty and heir to to the throne frequents the Imperial Palace much more often than before. I suspect he is slowly being integrated into daily business in preparations for his eventual ascension to the throne. Intended long-term plan: Maintain trust. Pin down ways to sway his Imperial Majesty into letting me counsel Taiga-san.

Profile: Taiga Kogen, heir to the throne Name: Taiga Kogen of the Nara Branch Titles: Heir to the Imperial Throne of Kusari Age: 30 Residence: Kōkyo District, Imperial Palace Notes: Taiga is surprisingly well educated on foreign customs. He is interested in several musical instruments, including the Piano. He is rather naive and easily excited about things. He drinks no alcohol, ever. I caught him having a call with a friend he tried to keep secret from his Uncle. Turns out it was a Hogosha. They really got their fingers everywhere. Being more or less locked up in the Kōkyo District makes him visibly lonely. His Uncle tries to counter-act this by spending time with him on the regular. He is not exactly well versed with politics. He understands the basics but most nuances just fly past his head. He gets nervous when I seek a conversation with him. 833 - Managed to confirm that the Imperial family has yet to decide on his wife. Applications are frequently sent but Taiga seems to turn down everyone so far. His Imperial Majesty not trying to force him is a good sign. 835 - Important: He showed interest in politics counselling courses with me. 835 - Important: He gifted me a Piano. For my birthday. 835 - Important: He slipped up and called me by my first name. Seized the opportunity to formally invite him to continue doing so, he returned the gesture. Intended long-term plan: Manipulate. Potentially marry, then keep him subdued. Empress Sanae of Kusari has a nice ring to it. Irelei and myself ruling in the background is just too tempting.

Profile: Patricia Lyons Name: Patricia Lyons Occupation: LPI - 831 edit: Retired Age: 37 Residence: Presumably Planet Los Angeles Notes: A brief time of happiness. A huge mistake. Led me to Irelei in some way, should probably thank her for this. 831 edit - Retired two and a half years after whoring herself out. 834 edit - Had my affiliates do a data sweep to clean up potential leftover data over in Liberty. Cost a huge sum but it had to be done. No LPI records, no hints, no ties. Unless she talks. Intended long-term plan: Never see her again.

Profile: Erik Nodtviet Name: Erik Nodtviet Occupation: Former Core Guildmaster Age: Unknown Residence: Presumably KIA Notes: I met the Core Guildmaster only a few times, though I recall his clashes with Sapphire. He seemed like a determined upright guy, if you looked past his obsession with Golanski. This obsession drowned Omicron Delta in blood on the regular. He was presumably killed in action. I never asked Sapphire if she had anything to do with it. Maybe I should do so one day. Could have been a useful contact if still alive. Current Guildmasters are less consistent.

Profile: Michal Golanski Name: Michal Golanski Occupation: Grand Admiral of the Order Overwatch Age: Presumably around 45 Residence: Planet Akabat Notes: I had only a few conversations with Golanski over the years. All were quite pleasant. Golanski and Nodtviet were in a rival spiral dragging their respective forces into some of the bloodiest clashes I've ever witnessed on tens of occasions. He had and presumably still has ties to the GC. Lady Red, alias Riona Elina was and likely still is entangled with him. Hardships of the past years likely turned him even colder than before. 832 - Remains a candidate to try and establish official ties between the Empire and the Order with. 835 - All hopes to establish contact with him are futile given recent developments. The Order likely got me in their scopes at this point over false paranoia.

Profile: Sapphire Raven Name: Sapphire Raven Alias: Revenant, Rev, Bird Person, Mayari Age: I actually never asked. I would say 42-43. Residence: Various safehouses, their Inverness hideout, no real permanent residence Primary Affiliation: Herself Secondary Affiliation: The Technocracy Additional Notes: One of my oldest and most faithful friends. Infamous tendency to get herself into trouble. Like really, all the damn time. She is loyal to her friends, I think to the point where she would give herself up for my sake. Ex-Core Guildkeeper, founded the Technocracy among others. Notoriously too comfortable chasing Nomads and their plans. Gets her into the most bizarre trouble. Half of Sirius organizations wants her dead, for various reasons. Basically all just boil down to her inability not to put her nose into everyone's business. If I had to bet credits on it, I would say SIS Director Steiner secretly finds her hot. Once rescued me from a grave mistake on Freeport 11, she quite literally crawled through the walls for my sake. I think this sealed our friendship. She got me back out alive after our run-in with Nomads in Omicron Lost. My memory is spotty but I think I've said some very silly, very embarrassing things back then. Freeport 11, Omicron Lost, a few instances in Liberty and at least one in Kusari. Effectively, I owe her my life. She was entangled with Joshua Hunt and now is with his machine self under the alias of Leviathan. I don't think they ever married or anything resembling this. Hunt and her have children. Either petri dish or adoptive, I never asked. I keep forgetting to hand her the gifts I bought for them though. She is the sole Technocracy member to avoid getting into legal issues with Kusari's authorities, solely over Goryō keeping his promise towards me. She loves cats. I think she considers a retirement on the Cat Island as alternative to her plan for retirement on Honshu. I am quite sure she still can't figure out if I actually want her or if I am still just messing around. Ten years of confusing her and I shall keep going. 834 edit: Had her over for dinner and a sleep over on Honshu. We got a little drunk and made out, just a tiiiiiny bit. Am I even still messing around at this point? Of course! She is my partner in racing. Mayari and Tala, the two fastest women of Sirius! - 835 edit: I think that's it for Mayari and Tala. She is getting slow, broke her nose last race. Perhaps she'll still go for some casual racing with me once in a while. 834 - She revealed a secret to me. She is in it way too deep. I'll not even write the details into a secluded, separate databank like this here. I wish I could just forget what she told me. Pure insanity. I cannot help either. Stupid Sapphire. It'll get her killed sooner than later. 835 - She seems to be growing more serious about her retirement plans lately. Hinted at needing my help to acquire Kusari citizenship one of these days, of course I agreed. I should get Irelei involved down the line, she might have a few ideas on how to avoid her retirement leading to issues for the local population. 835 - She seems wary of Ayakashi but made no attempts to actually stop me in my plans after I've told her about them. Sunekosuri Silver Clearance. Intended long-term plan: Help her wherever I can. One day I should convince her to commit to her own retirement plan, since I got a feeling she won't manage to do this herself ever.

Profile: Irelei Miyasu Name: Irelei Miyasu Alias: I stopped counting at some point. Age: 39 Residence: Bessō Miyasu / Sunekosuri Relationship Status: My muse. Additional Notes: Hey there, Sis. Did not expect me to write one about you, did you? Go ahead and write one about me if you really want to. Now where do I start about you? Do I even write about our past, how we got to met, what happened and how we proceeded from there on? Oh, it has been so long. Eleven years, right? You stumbled upon me, we chatted, we met on your ship and you introduced me to these adornments. And it stuck to me, to this day. You did. Years over years, and here we are now. Amidst our personal scheme, our personal game which got us into politics. Aiming high and higher. Me as the frontline runner, the public face. The one everyone cherishes or hates. And you? In the background, gathering data, falsifying evidence, creating entire identities just to erase those of someone else. Your methods are as elegant as they're sophisticated, so are your ways of showering me in your affection in new found ways every time. I love you, Iri. Marry me again? EDIT: Silly you. I love you too, Sanae. We'll see about marrying, I have an idea for a few new things though. Intended long-term plan: Win our game, of course. - EDIT: But oh, you lost to me already!

Profile: Noboru Higuchi Name: Noboru Higuchi Age: 56 Residence: Planet Kyushu Additional Notes: Minister in charge of Post-Imperial reconciliation. Head of the peace negotiation delegation of the Republic of Kusari to end the civil war. Successfully steered our country back to reunification in ignorance of sizeable portions of the Republican Diet. Remained in politics as Special Minister of State for Okinawa and Sigma Territorial Affairs for my first term. He quit active politics following the brief exchange of hostilities with Rheinland over Sigma-21, as he considered the escalation his personal failure. He had PIs investigate the beginning of the Sigma-21 conflict to no avail. Admitted towards me that the KOI interfered at some point and advised him to drop it, claiming the culprits had been identified and executed within the first months after the conflict. Unofficial asset to the Imperial Prime Ministry since, frequents the Sunekosuri and is always ready to provide advice. First recipient of Gold Card access to the Sunekosuri. We moved from colleagues to friends. This caused him to drop the serious old man facade. Turns out he is a rather lively old man aiming for a carefree life. Intended long-term plan: Can't have enough connections. He is a good man, well versed in navigating diplomatic minefields. Going to keep him around for as long as he is willing to help out.

Profile: Sanae Miyasu Name: Sanae Miyasu Aliases: Tala / 'Tamamo no Mae' Age: 37 Height: 168cm Weight: 51kg - (Sis, why do I have to list this?) Residence: Bessō Miyasu, Planet Honshu / Kōkyo District, Planet New Tokyo / Liner Sunekosuri Additional Notes: Well, hey. This is my entry about myself! What to write? A few general things first? Favorite Food: Anything Kaiseki I am passionate about the violin, the piano, my vision for Kusari and Iri. The total amount of attempts on my life reached [6] as of [836]. Ever since the cat incident within the parliament building, we have three cats. Mai and Airi back on Honshu, Anko back at the office. I suppose the next best move is to split this into personal relations, work stuff and so on? Sucks to keep note but I'm starting to get overwhelmed with so many things at once. Personal Relations I love my Sis. I still consider Raven a good friend, despite her literally losing her mind. I am secretly a bit jealous of Ayakashi but I really, really want her as my friend. His Imperial Majesty Kogen-sama is a surprisingly considerate, even vibrant old man behind the stone cold facade of the state's head. Taiga Kogen still has not married. He keeps giving me looks, makes gifts, interrupts my business at the Imperial Palace to chat. I think we're almost there with our plan. Sometimes I miss the days where I would jump from talking to the Core Guildmaster over to the Grand Admiral of the Overwatch within minutes. I should really give Palistri a call. It has been quite a while and she was always so full of energy. Hope she does well with her new home. Noboru basically became my full time advisor by 835. I can't thank the man enough for his continued support. There are so many people I came across over the years. Many to call friends, some who might've been friends, some who I am glad to never meet again. Too many to list. A couple years ago I started to draft notes on my opinions on Sirian organizations, I figured I could expand it bit by bit over time. A mix of knowledge and personal experiences, so to speak. Was I bored during every entry? Probably. Iri said it's nice to keep notes like these anyway. For convenience I split the entries by region. Kusari The Empire of Kusari - I serve the people of Kusari for over a decade now. The Empire is far from flawless but the institutional control mechanisms following the reunification, the knowledge that some long-term issues are being tackled.. change is slow but the change is positive. And I carry it forward, despite antagonization by those foolish enough to believe entire worlds can be changed by force. The rise of the Hanazono is worrisome, I will offer them a joint parliament to keep them in line, they lack governance experience so it shouldn't be too much trouble.. I hope. (Last edit: 836) Kusari Naval Forces - Proud, traditional, fierce and reliable. Our house faced many hardships throughout the last decades, if not for their strength none of us would be here. Nobody is flawless though, them included. But I widely prefer them over their Libertorian or Bretonian counterparts. (Last edit: 835) Kusari State Police - Career personnel, usually not easily bribed. I know, I tried. Sometimes a bit stuck-up with old role models. Otherwise easily ten times better at their job than the LPI or RFP. (Last edit: 832) KOI - They always gave me creepy vibes to be honest. Very thorough in what they do but also a bit too adventurous for my taste. Ayakashi is different, kept herself intact whereas other Agents slowly replace their entire selves with just their job. (Last edit: 835) Hogosha - They try to meddle into everything, I mean it. Everything. Just so much as the hint of profit or leeway over someone even remotely up any corporate food chain or otherwise? Yeah, they're there for it. It makes them an incredibly good source for intel though, so I keep them happy with the occasional donation in exchange for their services. (Last edit: 834) Gas Miner Guild - Yes, I attribute them to Kusari. If some people read this, they would be very upset but they remain culturally and economically rooted with Kusari. I appreciate their role as buffer, as shield towards the Omicrons and for their commitment to continued economic cooperation. The infighting with Samura and to an extension the Hogosha is tiring, needless but probably irreversible reality. They are best left to themselves for now. (Last Edit: 832) Kishiro Technologies - The easier to deal with of the two Keiretsu. Innovative, a broad spectrum of companies and services. Personal fan of their entertainment branches. Had to align the Miyasu Zaibatsu with a Keiretsu after all, went for Kishiro. They developed the Jump Drive, amazing technology. Scary. I saw some of the tests, including the first fatal one. This technology should remain in a tightly controlled environment, in the best case, an environment continuously controlled by myself. The schematics were leaked by Lane Hackers. Incomplete, full of malware, only a matter of time until someone tries to construct one. This could wipe out entire continents by accident in this case. I need a solution, urgently. (Last Edit: 836) Samura Heavy Industries - Samura is archaic and often seen as incompetent or sluggish. Quite the contrary, the largest corporation network of Sirius is no joke. They are sly bastards and keep an iron grip on vast parts of the Chamber of Peers. They approached me repeatedly but there was little they could do against my own threats. We found common grounds and they stopped harassing me after a while too. Despite their practices, they cannot be replaced as easily as some wish. A gradual development is already underway, forced upon them by systematic realities. (Last Edit: 835) Farmer Alliance - Financially dependent on Samura's good grace, a fact barely disguised if you climb up the political ladder far enough. I pity them, the combination of Samura's own mistakes and external unjust pressure caused their very existence. Desperation grew them, illusions of simple solutions keep them dedicated to Samura's bidding. I have spoken to a few of them and share the basic concept of restoring Kusari's food self-sufficiency but it is simply not as easy as banning Synth Foods and hoping for the best. Planet Kyushu needs a new hope, the civil government needs to sway more influence from Samura towards our centralized institutions. (Last Edit: 834) Blood Dragons - Disillusioned terrorists. Born out of the system's flaws, bolstered by populist propaganda and promises of solutions in reality unachievable through the path of violence they take. Key concepts of their agenda are not too far off with changes that need to happen but the road towards these goals cannot be reckless violence or revolution. The stability of the Sirian economy and social structures relies heavily on no house to ever collapse in on itself truly. They would jeopardize the sector's delicate balance in hopes of betterment, when they might as well just plunge hundreds of millions into chaos and poverty instead. (Last Edit: 833) Golden Chrysanthemum - The very definition of exploiting the vulnerability of people. Women's rights remain a topic to improve within Kusari but we've taken steps in the right direction. Far reaching steps. If their version of promoting women's rights was the blatant disrespect to human lives and the lunatic idea of installing a matriarchy - aimed at just turning the system upside down to harass innocent men - they could be have even be political allies. But they strayed off that path centuries ago and stuck to aimless terrorism. Not only that, they submitted to Malta's poison to the point of growing religious usage of Cardamine. I feel deep remorse for any sister of Kusari ending in their claws and can only pray she does not suffer for long. I will keep doing my best so that less fall for their hollow promises. (Last Edit: 834) Liberty LPI - I had friends within the LPI back during my days in Liberty. That was the only positive aspect about them, ever. I was even offered a career path there once. So glad I declined. They're a disgrace to the term "Police" but are quite fitting to Liberty after all. (Last Edit: 829) Liberty Navy - Alan Jones, Jack O’Neill, John Sader. Three Admirals, three times honorable servicemen. Their Navy changed drastically once these three started to lose influence or were killed in action. Everything I've seen of the Liberty Navy since was either unprofessional or outright destabilizing. They follow orders blindly and ready up for a war a handful of politicians and members of their Admiralty paint as absolutely necessary. Greed and paranoia are a dangerous combination. (Last Edit: 836) LSF - Not all too different from the KOI, with but one noticeable difference. The LSF loves to parade around and try to impose their orders on other parts of Liberty's law enforcement. (Last Edit: 830) DSE and USI - No need to note down what they do. I just faintly recall a very friendly lady of the DSE who assisted greatly in the customization of the Liner we owned prior to the Sunekosuri. Thanks, I guess. (Last Edit: 832) Ageira Technologies - The KOI concluded that Ageira is the largest party behind the Libertorian politicians pushing for war. The why is too obvious: The Jump Drive. Innovation outscaling their success from centuries ago and their best idea on how to deal with it? Incite a war potentially costing millions of lives and destabilizing the sectors already damaged economy? Fuck them. (Last Edit: 836) Xenos - Some call us xenophobic and they're not too far off. We're Xenos-phobic because they already reek from the racist nonsense they spouted back when I resided in Liberty. (Last Edit: 831) Liberty Rogues - Pirates with little to no morale other than credits. What else is there to say? (Last Edit: 826) Lane Hackers - Know-how and greed, turning the anti-corporate into corporates on the other side of the law. Mildly ironic. Used to like them despite the Cardamine involvement. The leak of the incomplete JD schemata is too disastrous to even remotely consider this a realistic stance these days. Easily the most destabilizing act since the Gallic Invasion. Need to prepare countermeasures and adequate reactions asap. (Last Edit: 836) Bretonia Bretonia Armed Forces - A proud army which endured and survived unimaginable hardships. Foes turned to friends turned to allies, over necessity and a sincere bound that grows. Their usage of the Jump Drive is really worth observing, clever call by Kishiro to have a long-term testbed during active combat deployments outside of Kusari at first. I should seek personal contacts there some time. (Last Edit: 835) BPA - Never really talked to any of them. I just know they were nearly grinded to dust during the Gallic War and have since been bolstered by a poorly financed Civil Defence Initiative. They travelled past New Tokyo once in accordance with prisoner exchange programs. They were oddly cheerful for underpaid, badly equipped police forces. Maybe they take donations? (Last Edit: 835) BIS/BAE - Not sure what they are up to. I just know they're working in close cooperation with the KOI over the Dublin Jump Bridge. And I heard rumors about a so-called "BAE" detachment, whatever that is. Not exactly a priority. Victor Steiner hasn't been around in a while, I am kind of glad. (Last Edit: 835) Bowex, Gateway, Planetform and BMM - Bretonia's corporations. Each with their own twist, issues and quirky personnel. The most memorable was a certain Hidamori-san who worked for Bowex and who gave me valuable pointers when I briefly stayed at Freeport 1. Strange how some names just stick to me over such small stuff. (Last Edit: 828) Molly - Self-proclaimed freedom fighters. Whilst I do not doubt BMMs questionable business and ethic practices, their near successful secession of Dublin plunged the sector into economic crisis mode. Any destabilizing factor to Kusari is also destabilizing my own plans. (Last Edit: 834) Gaians - Protecting the environment through terrorist attacks. This is on the mild side compared to other criminal groups of Sirius. But they also deployed bioweapons and surely did not discard of the means to develop them after achieving the abandonment of Planet Gaia by Bretonia. They're a potentially very dangerous wildcard. (Last Edit: 833) Rheinland Rheinland Law Enforcement - Not much to say here, never had much points of contact with them. Rheinland is constantly drowning in their own issues anyway and since the Saigon Crisis, they made no further attempts to antagonize Kusari. Neither shall we antagonize them. (Last Edit: 832) Rheinland Corporations - Wrestling for resources, trying to deal with sometimes systematic internal issues, trying to survive in the economically unstable environment that is Rheinland. As with the other houses except Gallia, they're part of the immense interdependency network of Sirian economy. That's all there really is to them. (Last Edit: 830) Red Hessians - Revolutionaries who seem more interested in money and control over smuggling goods than actual revolution. Liberty Rogues with more people, bigger guns and the guts to face off with the Rheinland Military directly. Too far away for us to worry but they're the main destabilizing actor in Rheinland. (Last Edit: 832) Bundschuh - A former political party turned ideologically charged criminals. Still holding political ambitions. I remember very well what Golanski said about them and their usefulness. I don't think all of their talking points are a waste but any types of contact are an interference with Rheinland's sovereignty and too troublesome to bother with the idea alone. (Last Edit: 834) Landwirtrechtbewegung - Hah I got their name right on the first try. A farmer lobbyist group turned into a violent uprising. Heavily tied to the unjust pressure exerted by Liberty for Synth Foods centuries ago. Pressure upheld to this day. I can only sympathize with them, especially since as other criminal groups they truly seem to try and limit their attacks to Synth Foods only. (Last Edit: 835) Gallia Gallic Law Enforcement - Indoctrination never left their ranks. The state might change names but the mindset remained mostly the same. Our revenge was served and whilst I remain split on its usefulness and would have rather chosen other methods to keep them isolated, it so far seems to have worked out well enough. (Last Edit: 834) Gallic Corporations - From all I understand, some are controlled, some exert control over their government since the days of the Kingdom. I do not despise them but opening trade with Gallia will not happen within the next decades at least. Too gruesome are the memories of Leeds. (Last Edit: 834) Unione Corse - Drug dealers with mafia structures. Influential within Gallia but not comparable to what the Hogosha can pull at home. We don't need them anywhere close to Kusari. (Last Edit: 833) The Maquis - Radical terrorists and a splinter group of the Council. I never understood the Council for betraying their values to easily, nor why the Maquis did not attempt to take helm of the movement. They terrorize Gallia and primarily strike military infrastructure, which by all means feels not like the worst thing to do. Probably too delusional to work with though. (Last Edit: 833) Independent Groups The Technocracy - Just one word: Weird. Next to Raven and Leviathan, everything about them seems off. Diplomacy more volatile than Ravens own one. I can't make sense of why they do what they do, as it seemingly always draws back to antagonizing everyone around them. The Core - I vividly remember Nodtviet. An ambitious man befitting the ambitious project the Core represents. Conquest through near limitless funding in return for valuable resources flowing back to the houses. Basically an infinite money glitch. I understand why Rayne was with them for so long. Recent experiments with the Gammu Drones are a bit off-putting though. (Last Edit: 835) The Order - With Golanski seemingly in retirement married to his beloved Lady Red, the Order became much more unpredictable than they already were before that. Recent strikes against Kusari came as not much of a surprise. Ichigaya's energy cells are the result of Nomad research, there's no denial such matters bear risks. However, they made a recent attempt on my life together with the LSF. Unforgivable. (Last Edit: 835) Bristol Manufacturing - A small time corporation using the uncertain times in Galileo to sneak away with - by house corporate standards - small amounts of Platinum. They do not seem interested in taking a side and it is their good right to simply not get involved. I like the design of this ship they developed together with Kress Shipbuilding. (Last Edit: 834) Interspace Commence - Bankers. What's there to say? (Last Edit: 830) Orbital Spa and Cruise - I took a vacation on Curacao once, it was very pleasant. (Last Edit: 830) The Outcasts - I count an Outcast my friend for many years now. But that is solely because her view on Cardamine differs vastly from most of Malta. Cardamine is a poison flooding the houses with just one intention: Generating wealth for the Outcasts and promoting crime in the houses as a vicious cycle. It should be broken by giving Malta the Leeds treatment. (Last Edit: 833) The Corsairs - Easily the most annoying bunch of them all. Corsairs are both simpletons yet well armed. Plundering is in their blood and they remain a thorn in our sides. They tried to kill me a few times and even wrote out bounties on my head but were literally too easily fooled. On the one hand, hilarious, on the other hand.. sigh. (Last Edit: 834) Intended long-term plan: Live a good life, not just for myself.
