Miyuko Kasenumi aka Rain6636 models her personal interpretation of the Imperial Bee uniform.


Born Miyuko Kasenumi, into an upper middle-class Achura family in the Koichi constellation, Lonetrek region, Rain6636 is affectionately known by her friends and collegues as "Six." Her skillsets include a perfect Basilisk and a strong support Falcon. She is unusually patient, and her favorite fleet roles are Covert Ops and Reconnaissance.

Six was always misunderstood by her parents: laser physicists of the Kaalakiota Megacorporation [KK]. Long before joining the ranks of capsuleers and her eventual assimilation into The Imperium, Six was defiant of her parents' strong pro-corporate views and Caldari nationalism. Eager to find her own way, Six completed her primary education early and immediately went on to pursue an education in Interior Design with a full scholarship at the prestigious Caldari School of the Arts [CalArts]. While there, she attended introductory modeling and acting courses, and was hooked. She continued her education at CalArts to earn her Solar Actors Guild [SAG] advanced credentials.

Six was recruited by the New Caldari branch of the Elite Model Management (EMM) modeling agency, and won the most lucrative one-year modeling contract in New Eden's history with the luxury nightwear company Victorieaux Secret [VS], commanding an annual salary of 15 Million ISK. Even more remarkable is her standing record of being the youngest model to have achieved a full-time SAG contract with a private retail Megacorporation.

which according to most accounts within VS was the most successful advertising campaign in the company's history.


Rather than resting on her laurels and extending her modeling contract with VS, Six founded the Caldari Indy Reel Festival, and formed her own holoreel production company [Team Evil], and hired actors from within EMM modeling. Six took a starring role in the celebrated holoreel title, "The Todaki Twins." She produced a follow-up holoreel, the psychological thriller "AWOX: U Thought You Was Alts" and was also the production's lead costume designer. During the production of AWOX, Six crossed paths with the enigmatic capsuleer Commissar Kate, of the Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive [I-RED], who was initially asked to advise the capsuleer-themed production as a military consultant, but eventually took the holoreel's lead role at Six's request.

Six was a budding mogul within the Caldari and wider New Eden entertainment industry, and was billed as 'the next Koko Shanel-meets-Madelaine Munro.' Her success was due in no small part to the casting of attractive and independently famous models in her holoreels (The acting was admittedly awkward, but this only contributed to Team Evil's cult following).

Along with her closest model friends in Team Evil, Six was helplessly captivated by Commissar Kate's tales of capsuleer adventures. To the surprise of their friends and colleagues, Six and her model-turned-actress friends parlayed their success and professional connections to gain entry into a highly experimental capsuleer clone program codenamed RA-1N. The Caldari State-funded RA-1N program sought to biologically engineer a shared consciousness into capsuleer teams.

Due to the ethical grey area of modifying capsuleers to such a degree, the RA-1N program was subcontracted to the Guristas Pirate Cartel, and carried out in deadspace, in a heavily modified Rorqual. Tragically, the serial number following the RA-1N (Rain) designation is exactly what it suggests.

Free from reproach and oversight, the Guristas Cartel reported the RA-1N program as a failure for nearly two years while continuing to receive Caldari State funding and protection. The truth was far more grim: the clones produced in the RA-1N program were quite successful, and batches of undocumented RA-1N clones were sold and bartered to the highest bidders.

Like the RA-1N teams before them, Six and her friends, serial numbers 6635, 6636, 6637, 6638, and 6639 were subject to torture and abuse.However, due to the strong bond they developed prior to entering the RA-1N program, they were the first RA-1N team to defy and overthrow their captors.Left with no choice but to use extreme violence, they took control of the ship, and initiated a self-destruct. As the only capsuleers on board, they were the only survivors of the incident.

The RA-1N program and its records were lost with the ship. The fates of the capsuleers of the RA-1N program is unknown, but it is likely that most were sold into slavery, to organ harvesters, or for ceremonial sacrifices, particularly to the Blood Raiders.

The technology developed in the RA-1N program was derived from that used by Sansha's Nation. To this day, in active Incursion constellations, the Rain team sense the presence of Sansha's Nation and experience unintelligible signal noise in their shared consciousness.



They continue to operate as the only known RA-1N team and retain their serial number designations proudly. Upon their clone death in the destruction of the RA-1N program and subsequent transfers of consciousness to a Caldari State cloning facility, their serial number designations became permanent record in the absence of any and all other identifying information.

Their personalities forever altered by their ordeal, they share an iron will and unwavering dedication to one another. Having always been the optimistic one, Six is the only member of the team who retained a significant portion of her kindness and humanity. Commissar Kate guides them as their mentor, and is their only link to their former selves.

Upon joining The Imperium, the Rains' mindlink made them particularly effective in the asymmetrical warfare group unofficially known as Reavers. Unaffected by proximity, their effectiveness as a forward scout team is unmatched. They are rarely caught without superior intel of the battlespace, and are masters of the hit-and-run tactics used extensively in Reaver operations.

Seeing an opportunity to lead by example for her team and the capsuleers of The Imperium, Six designated herself the Reavers Official Standards Bearer. To the casual observer, she is little more than a pretty face in uniform. Within the context of Reaver operations and her contributions as a denounced (neutral) agent to The Imperium, her appearance and poise are a testament to the incredible morale and resilience common among the members of the guerrilla warfare-centric Reaver group.

In a recent interview with a SCOPE journalist embedded with the Reavers, when asked a pointed question about her opinion of beauty pageants, the quintessential ambassador Six had this to say:

Quote:
I am humbled by your question, thank you, but until the conventional 'Miss' title undergoes a fundamental shift as a figurehead, I will not be participating in beauty pageants. Beauty should not be the sole basis for competition, and it is harmful to the moral fabric of our society if those who possess it are objectified. Especially now, in this heavy military-political climate, there are far more important matters in hand.

I believe everyone has an obligation to contribute toward the progress and well-being of our kind. Every person is unique, and each individual should commit to improving the lives of those around them in their own way. As a social convention, beauty pageants are not inherently bad, but I think the culture and structure of New Eden's beauty pageants, in their current form, fail to realize their potential as a platform for raising awareness of humanitarian matters. Education, Poverty, Piracy, War crimes, and ongoing turmoil in Factional Warfare, for example, are pressing issues that come to mind.

As for my personal convictions, Reavers, my team, and The Imperium's ongoing sovereignty interdiction deserves my full attention. Until galaxy-wide peace is achieved, my greatest obligation as a capsuleer is executing The Imperium's military response to threats against our way of life. I serve in my position as Official Standards Bearer with the goal of cultivating pride, morale, and cohesion within Reavers and The Imperium.


Six can be found wearing the following variations of the Imperial Bee [IB] Reaver uniform:

She hasn't forgotten how to let her hair down. She recently commissioned this Imperium / Illuminati themed tattoo on her R&R clone in Deklein, and looks forward to relaxing in it when the ongoing Imperium military actions are concluded.

Although I love my sister at arms deeply....she is not quite ready for pageants.

I have but one question: "Who wears it better"

Would you like a kitten?

Hmm, Zixie, you're pretty freakin' cute. Perhaps this needs to come down to a tiebreaker, and who takes it off better.

Silly me, that's not very ladylike.

The appropriation of the interBus logo is actually sort of delightful, I'd have to say. I do wonder how much interBus stands to make on royalties if this group is able to make it stick.

Given the daily state of their affairs, probably a very, very long time. This is likely the result of boredom in the first place.

Silly you, that was not very ladylike. I would bet I would win this challenge due to just that.

Silly you.

Goons instructed these clothes to be released under the disguise of being InterBus. It was always planned to be a goon uniform.

They just didn't want to grrrrr tears all over the place.

I'm impressed that someone picked up on that detail. I'm also glad I wasn't the one to mention it. The credibility of a claim like that depends heavily on the source.

Also, who is this CCP you speak of.

I think he's referring to my glorious business, Caldari Corn Paste. But I don't know why he would as we have no business with the Imperium.

Snazzy outfits, however.

CCP, or rather, C C P, is a capsuleer alliance with a fondness of challenging every other capsuleer in high risk zones to come and shoot them the rare times they show themselves. Hardly anything else about them is known. Hardly anything concrete that is. I know of a rumour that they are stationed in Jovian space, but that is probably baseless. Unless they know of a wormhole network that goes into Jove space that we know nothing about.

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.
