Hello!

I've been thinking about this lately. There are many idle characters in New Eden that have never been sent to the biomass. They have lived their entire EVE lives as dark silhouettes. What I would like to do, is to revive some of these characters again. The question is if it's possible to get hold of them. Are there anyone out there who has an old account or know someone who hasn't played for several years (or never got really into the game at all), who would consider selling their character to me?

If so, the character must fulfill the following:

- Must be a silhouette (so I can do the sculpting).
- Must be over three years old (born 2009 or earlier).
- Must have low SP (I don't want this to be overly expensive).
- Must have been in a NPC corp all this idle time.

I won't get my hopes up for this "project", but it would have been cool if it could be realized. Cool

Cheers!

Gotta say I do like the idea.

Keep in mind that the transfer for each character costs approx 900m for the 2 PLEXs.

Minimum you will be paying for characters is therefore going to be 1b, probably 1.5b for people to bother with actually selling.

Oh and when the character is transferred you should be able to re-model anyway so you probably don't need that point on there.

Sure, that's no problem at all. The player in question must get some Iskies for the hassle.

My main point with the low SP is that I don't want to play for skill - just the character itself. Smile

Nouwandi PT have way too many skill points and cost too much, but thanks for the offer. The lesser the character have been used, the better.

If you are still looking I have one available.

Born 05.04.2009

State War Academy for 3yrs 2 months.

Silhouette in place.

Never been one for learning so I have just 56k skillpoints. Can't even remember if I ever undocked..

Character is a complete blank slate, to best of my recollections has had zero interactions with any player entities.

Not transferred a character before and can't seem log in to check costs etc but how does Transfer Cost + 1bn isk sound, (obviously a set price inc costs agreed in advance).

Contact here or ingame if interested.

Tempting offer, kopite, but I have already bought one, so I need to chill for a while. I might get back to you though. Blink

Thanks, harpy! Blink I will consider buying more, but need a tiny break from the buying at the moment. No need to bump for now. But during the summer, I will be interested in more. I'll let you know. Cool

Nice to see such interest in my project.

I have decided to be a bit more picky since this cost some ISK to do. The above is basically what I'm looking for here. So if there are any more of those around, please make yourself heard.

And please don't post with the character in question. I want a complete blank sheet. No forum posts on the record either. Blink
