The power of science cannot be abated by something as minor as permission slips or lack of volunteers! The science must go on!

Of course running out of ISK to hire bounty hunters is not helping at all! And their corpses just keep pilling up. Who knew people with military backgrounds were so tough to capture?

My search continues!

You are trying to capture people who are very experienced in shooting back and killing things. What were you expecting?

That they would come quietly and stopped sending back my bounty hunters inside so many cardboard boxes?

I'll stop sending them back to you in small pieces the moment you stop sending minions to do your dirty work, you disgusting pirate filth.

What is the expected advancement of this project Miss Hydreiga? Other then the more.. Basic ones you have mentioned, also, would this volunteer have free will after what you do? I ask because the why you have made it sound is like you want to do Sansha's work.. Please enlighten myself a little more if you will, the prospect of being.. Better may be worth it depending on the sacrifices..

I assure you I am very much alive, albeit riding things out in New Caldari until all of this blows over.

And point of clarification, I wouldn't so much say that there is a link between our fortunes so much as the fact that I'm seemingly always in misery and people only take note when it behooves them.


Did you just admit to where you were hiding in a public forum seen by millions of baseliners throughout the cluster?

Also don't you give me that Mr Wulver. It's not like you and me are on particularly friendly terms anyway... just mutual acquaintances of acquaintances. I suggest you pick yourself up by the boot straps.... or whatever you're overly practical Caldari made regulation foot wear may have in their place and quit feeling sorry for yourself!

God knows I've seen far too many of you self loathing immortal types who don't appreciate what they do have for a lifetime.

Oh my ancestors, what in the cluster is wrong with you? Of course they are going to shoot all the bounty hunters! Why didn't you just send them letters or something?

I'm sorry, but do I look like one of those silly Sansha cronies to you? Do I strike you as a necromancer? Do I have swaths of zombies following my every order? No, those are drones and they make beeping sounds and blink lights, it is completely different.

What I'm doing here is super duper science of the highest order! And that sounds deliberately nebulous because explaining is too hard and would spoil the fun!

So I'll just say this.

I have a prototype. It does things. So I made a better prototype that does things even better. And I repeated this process over and over until the prototypes did all the things. To improve this cycle, I need a better template for my newest prototype. And that involves a test subject. What am I going to do with the test subject? Who knows? Most of the time, they are never worse for the wear and I've done plenty of testing on myself and I turned out fine!

And since bounty hunters aren't doing the trick, I'll have to do the heavy lifting myself! Galmando style!

I am not sure if romancing a neck is legal or decent action...
Must consult Corporate Marriage Agency.

Wait, who's romancing what now, Miss Kim? Did I miss something?

Haven't you said "Do I strike you as a neck romancer?"

That's necromancer, Miss Kim! Completely different things! One is a practitioner of the black art of raising dead from the depths of the underworld! The other is a fetish!

And then there's the unholy combination of the two, which we call vampires! Nothing worse than an undead neck romancer that drinks blood!

And no, I'm not a necromancer! I'm a mechromancer, which is kinda the same thing, but totally not the same.

I have much experience with neck romancing. Not so much with the raising the dead thing.... I mean, we tried it once in college, but ended up with a mini zombie apocalypse. There was no romancing of any kind that day.

A little trust goes a long way. The less you use, the further you'll go.

I was referancing Sansha due to your mention of using this project to allow Guristas Agents to 'jack' the volunteer, if this was a not a joke, then I don't think you will get a volunteer, you may have had a volunteer, but not now.

You have been playing Backwater II, haven't you?

You are not a true mechromancer until you can summon a killer robot out of thin air and you can fire your shotgun at somebody at point blank and MISS (you only hit the guy by not aiming at him).

Speaking of zombies, I think I heard rumours of some pirate organisation R&D experimenting on the terminally ill. According to those rumours, the scientists attempted to force wasting patients into productivity by stuffing their bodies with so much cybernetics they were practically cyborgs, and then control them remotely.

Was that you?

Good game, I always played the Alarm character, hate how they got rid of her super speed in the second one though.

Wait wait..... isn't there a more recent one.... 'Post Prequel' or something like that?

What fills the soul? Something that guides a lost child back to it's parents arms. Or waves that dye the shores of the heart gold. A blessed breath to nurture life in a land of wheat. Or the path the Sef descend drawn in ash. In the wake of fire.
