A Community Event

---

Description

All Worlds Enterprises & Securities recently announced its foray into Entertainment financing which included construction of a raceway venue, now complete, called Always Welcome Entertainment Services in Dublin.

An eye-catching facility with a focus on defensive platforms, this Dublin gem has one singular focus when the time is right - to keep the raceway free from those pesky drone racers!

On scheduled event days, you can expect:

• A hosted, commentated event that even non-participants can enjoy
  
• A variety of different race types - starting with traditional and ending with guns-blazing SOLE SURVIVOR ACTION!
  
• Interactivity with racers from all across Sirius
  
• Great prizes from our many sponsers

Both racers and spectators alike will enjoy what promises to be an experience to be remembered! Don't miss out!
Register as Racer (//preferred for event coordination, but all will be welcome on Race day with RACE- tag) or Spectator (//optional to help scheduling) today!

    • Prereqs: Racing ships need to provide brief biography of their character for use with commentary during races (//give we hosts some material to make it most interesting! Like a speedway event! It doesn't have to be much, as long or as short as you wish.)
      
    • Note: Please let Event Coordinator know if you cannot attend for any reason, with as much advance notice as possible - rescheduling due to lack of participants is at the discretion of the Event Coordinator.
  • Spectators can view from the area around the station itself in the middle of the raceway, so long as they don't get in the way of the gunfire directed at the racers!

1. Mort	RACE-Willy.Derrington	IMG Fighter
2. Proselyte	(RACER) RACE-"Sunshine"	Zoner IFF, Arrow Light Fighter Pilot Bio: "Sunshine" is Dr. Aspen Harlow, 35, a pilot and explorer for the Starlight Research Consortium. A Pennsylvania Zoner born to small-town physicians on Planet Erie, they studied on Manhattan to become a psychologist and open a practice in one of Erie's larger cities for many years, before going all in on a calling towards the stars they'd heard since they were young, now working mainly as a pathfinder. A relative recent comer to spacer life, but carries lots of enthusiasm! When they aren't busy as a field operative for Starlight's more hard-science researchers, they enjoy playing the harmonica, getting to know new people, indulging in borderline pretentious holo-novels, enjoying the outdoors on temperate planets, drinking coffee and catching up on new research journals in their field. They passed the Dublin racetrack one fateful day and were curious, so they tried it out solo after acquiring a small craft, were hooked on the rush, and now this rookie wants to bring home the accolades of their first big win in spacecraft racing. And those funds might be pretty handy for a certain few projects coming to the fore lately...
3.RaumDeuter	Callsign: RACE-RM-Gunter.Kunrad	IFF: Rheinland Military / Ship: Arrow Light Fighter BIO: Oberleutnant Gunter Kunrad is representing the Kaiserliche Rheinwehr for this race. With very little background in racing, he hopes his military experience can be of some use.
4 + 5.Kauket	RACE-"Tala" RACE-"Mayari"	SHIP TYPE: Arrows Pilot Biography: Rivals, couple, or sisters. Tala and Mayari are a mysterious duo hailing from a place far away, popping up everywhere across Sirius, seemingly at random. Mayari, the Moon, is reserved but quiet racer seeking the thrill of the ride. Tala, the Sun, is a vibrant but disruptive racer trying to earn their glory on the tracks.
6.hmmm	Pilot: RACE-Forgan_Meeman	Ship: R1 Ghoul Biography: An amateur freelance scout who most commonly would be seen running around in the Omicron systems. Forgan desires nothing but the thrill of the dangers of space and the speed of the vessel that takes him through it.
7+8 The Gen'an Chrysanthemums	Ship name: RACE-GC-Gin.Sake and RACE-GC-Mi.Sake	Ship types: 2x Hayabusa Biography: Two masked Sisters of the Gen'an GC have signed up for the race under an alias under the prospect of finding wealth, glory and entertainment. Who they are is a mystery, but one of them has the smell of alcohol hanging around her. The other has a boatload of attitude that cannot be contained to the confines of her ship. Let the games begin.
9 XCMachine	Ship name: RACE-GC-Furutani.Izanami	Ship types:: C15-F "Lily" Light Fighter Biography: One female that likes to investigate, scout and having fun outside of her daily work, seeking wealth, glory and gain reputation for herself and her faction of the Sisterhood. Don't be fooled by her attitude, she maybe a nice persuader and one moment, but if you push the wrong buttons, things will not go well for the person she faces.
10.Geno	SHIP NAME: RACE-Techie	SHIP TYPE: CLI-11000 "Arrow" Interceptor PILOT NAME: Techie. Just Techie. (Just Techie? Alright.) PILOT INFORMATION: Techie is another contender to the race. Armed to the teeth with technical quips and a sharp intellect, he is ready to kneel the competition through sheer smarts.
Lord Helmchen	Name: OS&C|TE~Red~Velvet~Club	Class: Palace Class Liner. Representative Liner of OS&C, one of our esteemed sponsors of the racing event!

AWES does not have any influence over faction politics during the course of the event.

Any interest by racers whom have poor rep with IMG might be better served by leaving the faction stripes on your home station for this one and participating 'incognito'.
