EVE Fiction

Wow, I haven't RP'd like that since I was 13.

Bye guys!

The fact is RP on Eve is subtle, your OP, if posted OCC would have been decent enough fiction. When posted as IC was blatant god modding, because it intimate knowledge and connections your character cannot possibly have.

You did not differentiate between IC and OOC knowledge. IGS is IC only, OCC can go here. You've intimated a connection with Hilen Tukoss which you cannot possible posses.

Hilen was a real GM actor, that others have earned a connection through a the long played out AJ story line.

Knowledge of Earth is entirely OCC. IC it ranges from entirely unknown to myth or legend even amongst the most learned on the subject (Jove, SOE and Amarr Scripture). Consider it is on a par with Ancient Greek myths of Olympus, while learned archaeologist know ancient Greece existed, and know things like the Iliad they also know Olympus is a legend. Ask most people what the Iliad is and you will be met with a blank stare, a snigger for asking about Homer, and a claim that Nike is a brand of sports gear. Any terms or expressions you associate with Earth, have completely different semantics in New Eden, even that "New Eden"

In Eve, whilst we players 'know' the back story, your base assumption should be your character know nothing unless you've earnt it.

The Earth-Hypothesis: Scientifically Parsimonious".

"The Earth-Hypothesis for the Orgin of Humanity in New Eden, henceforth referred to as 'Single-Point Origin (SPO), has long been debated within the scientific community."

"...to put the debate to rest...and put long-held baises aside..."

"Dr. Topher's work... cutting edge..."

"...fossil record on all world's distinctly lacking in human specimens before 20k YA. Furthermore, the lack of fossiled progenitors..."

"Mold Theory... failing to explain why humans are the only known interstellar lifeform to have convergently evolved in the cluster, but also the only known lifeform in the known Universe to be able to interbreed with it's convergents."

"...singular theory with the most scientific evidence in support. That a plant such as tobacco is more genetically similar to an animal (human) than it is to any plant in the cluster has stunning implications for a shared origin of both lifeforms on a heretofore undiscovered planet. Whether this planet is the aforementioned "Earth", or some other world, remains to be determined, though likely that world exists beyond the EVE Gate."

"Further research is needed, but with Syncretism and Mold Theories off the table, will no doubt reveal that the origins of humans, along with dozens of other lifeforms, are on a planet that exists on the other side of the EVE Gate, suggesting that New Eden was nothing more than a massive colonization effort of our ancestors."
