Amarr: Those consumed by their fanaticism will burn down their own house in search of heresy.
Caldari: Those blinded by duty and obedience are the architects of their own demise.
Minmatar: Those too rigid to bend, break the most violently.
Gallente: Those with the highest of morals, fall the hardest off their high horses.

Amarr: Reverence breeds stability.
Caldari: Industry breeds stability.
Matari: Strength breeds stability.
Gallente: Democracy breeds stability.

We're all just trying to form a livelihood out of a place as dangerous as our cluster.

There ya go heh


That, sir, is not wholly accurate.

I, as an Amarrian, did indeed get an Impairor upon my initiation into the world of the capsuleer. But I did not fly it. I got into it, dragged it out, and was shot to pieces before I knew what an energy turret was -- never mind the fact that I had one to begin with.

However, even though my part-time capsuleer career has not been a very long one, my skills have grown. I no longer crash ships or haul them out to be podded by the nearest malignant force. I fly them, and bring God's justice to the nearest low-born pirate scum out there.

I think it was just the best joke in the IGS so far, about gallentes being noble.

Okay, let me try this game.

Amarr are religious and devoted to God.
Caldari are children of Raata.
Gallente are those, who bombed Caldari Prime, who downed CN Shiigeru on Caldari Prime, who occupied Caldari Prime and many planets in Black Rise, who rammed peace conference in Malkalen, who torture Caldari POWs in hidden prisons in Black Rise and who prefer democracy and individualism instead of working for the good of many.
And Minmatars are just tribals.

No offense? No objections, I hope?...

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you don't care much for the Gallente....

Okay, maybe not "just tribals", but just "Minmatars are tribals". Which is, should be, rather accurate, and considering minmatars have official tribes, shouldn't be offensive as well...

As for Gallente... I think I gave rather objective description of their deeds that would characterize them, without any.... personal... feelings... towards them... like... care... or something like that !!

I will agree with Eran.

They are all people, with the exception of Empyreans or Capsuleers who managed to still fly past their first month post graduation, who for all intents and purposes are close enough, save a general lessening of empathy.

"I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you - so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also.  And as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, so the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all."

I am sure you are just joking.

The rust-like colouring was due to the material we use to build our ships. Namely, Fernite Carbide, which is available in great abundance in Matari space.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Not 'have' official tribes. The entire Republic is a confederacy of tribes.

I have found a striking similarity in the presence of blood, bones, and a heart in every Capsuleer.


Perhaps the one truth that can be told of Amarr, Caldari, Gallente, or Minmatar is not one of them is unkillable. Death conquers all, even if not forever.



It could be said that the corpse of a Caldari pilot is functionally no different from a Gallente corpse. They both are laid out, their hopes and beliefs crushed, with the privacy of their innards splayed open for all to see.

Yeah. Because the Caldari are completely innocent.
