Bodyguards Needed

Namas and Greetings fellow capsuleers,

I am currently looking to hire some more people(Baseliners) as bodyguards and general. If anyone has anyone in there employ who I could buy the services of I would be most interested.

I'm not too fussy, though right off the bat I would like to say I am not interested in purchasing any slaves.

I am interested in military personnel the more experienced the better. Though preferably no one who is so old they are past there prime.

As to amounts I am looking for large quantities as I also have some assets that need looking after.

As to price I am willing to negotiate but I will be trying to keep within 100k-800k per person which I feel is a very good wage. Also I would like the new recruits to be placed at either Intaki V-5, Stacmon(Any station) or any other major market hub.

I hope this will attract some attention as I'm sure some of you have small armies at your command.

Thank you Mr Yaken,

If they are well trained military combatants then yes it would be a pleasure to have them in my employ, as far as other activities what they do in their own time is none of my business as long as it does not effect there work I however have no wish to pay anyone for any "work" of the nature I believe you are referring to.

Now, now, what is this!

Richard dear what are you up to?

Or more precisely what have you gotten yourself into?

Nothing drastic just feel like expanding my staff somewhat.

I'm not looking for any capsuleer bodyguards at any rate. Though if people are interested in joining the ILF they can obviously start the application procedure it's a great organization to be part of.

I would be extremely wary of any capsuleers "recommending" any baseliner "bodyguard" to you.

Hypothetically, if I did not like you, I would pretend that I did and recommend one of my best agents to stand by your side. You'd consider it, we'd work together on some workable arrangements, and the agent would be transferred to your command. Of course, he'd still be paid by me, likely twice whatever you're paying, and with strict orders to smother you with your own pillow next Thursday.

He gets paid twice, you get killed.

I strongly advise you post for work on the merc boards, not here. Nobody here is enough of a friend to pick your bodyguards for you.

To put what Katrina said simply, you cannot trust any bodyguard whose motivations you don't know or understand. If you're going to buy one, buy one from a large organisation with a reputation to protect.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

Strongly disagree.
The larger the organisation the harder is to guarantee each employee's interests beneath its umbrella. Thats why you have capsuleers acting piracy every day inside militias for example.

May as well be the case of those recent discoveries with regard to I-RED being or not involved with all this murdering that took place in Syndicate three years ago.

You trust the organisation to enforce it's standards on it's employees - or it has no reputation and you don't use it. Personally I agree that you're still open to attack by people who think they can escape the consequences and for whom the payment would mean they were set for life.

Personally, I carry a light weapon and put my trust in soft cloning. Kill me if you want, that just means I rise up again. With a headache and a grudge.

A woman out of story and legend if ever there was one.

But having said that Richard I have some advice I think better shared elsewhere.

I am touched by your concern I will however correct one maybe slightly misleading characteristics of this message I am not looking necessarily for one or two talented individuals not that I will refuse them if offered. I am in fact building a rather large contingent of men and women that I am drawing from various sources. The individuals who are suggested to me will obviously be vetted very thoroughly and though they maybe by my side on a regular basis they are hardly likely to ever be their alone.

On the subject of paying people to kill me people can pretty easily do that already currently I preside in a mansion with staff and security to bribe one of these individuals is not unthinkable, even though I have known many of them since I was a boy.

If however either of you have some individuals or even a spare platoon hanging about I would be seriously interested my current 'guard" stands at just under 2200 men.

This is not the living standards I'd expect from someone engaged with Intaki Secessionism. Not anything alike ILF tradicional values passed by its former Suresha, Mr. Saxon Hawke. You and your family may be too engaged with the Gallente society and Gallente Aristocrats to fully commit yourself with Intaki Secession.

I'm confused. You are building an army for you or for ILF(IPI)?

How about drones? There are implants out there that allows for direct interfacing with drones. Being a capsuleer, it shouldn't be too hard to manage drones while holding polite conversation at the same time. Should be child's play even.

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.

I come from means is that a crime?

My small private force is none of your concern sir and if you have nothing of any value to input I am not really interested in your words. My family provides jobs and housing for the local community but yes they are indeed wealthy. I believe it potent to mention the last Suresha for at least a time lived in his personal compound.

All said, think what you like of me, I personally could not care less.

Mechanical guards though efficient have flaws just like people. A drone can be hacked and forced to turn its master just as easily as any man can be bribed.

Unless it uses the same technology utilised by starships. Quantum entanglement technology is impossible to hack, at least for the time being, as there are no data transmission mediums for a hacker to access.

However, you will need an anchor point for this to work. Not to mention very expensive. Quantum entanglement-based transmission implants are currently available but limited to clone mercenaries and there hasn't been a version that is usable by already-existing capsuleer without some very extensive modification and highly invasive surgery.

Otherwise, you can always use advanced encryptions. There exists encryption keys so long they need quantum computers to brute-force through, and only a clone mercenary has one convenient enough to carry around on their person.
