it was a trap

The irony is palpable.

This is a very confusing thread. So that quarian girl was a deception? What was it supposed to accomplish?

Oh that's where you ran off to.

Allow me to explain.

What I said from the begining is more or less true true, Ms. Neyvi has been after my life for some time, due to a past encounter with her former mentor. How did I put it?



Quite.

Unfortunately, the Rannoch-Clan had gone to ground and stopped using her public persona, thus limiting my ability to perform retaliatory strikes. When this site returned, I suspected she would be drawn back to it, so I created a rannoch-clan persona of my own with which to provoke her and trick her into revealing herself. In doing so, I not only retrieved a great deal of information about whom she had joined up with but also potentially, where she was hiding. As well, I managed to demonstrate she is mortal, and capable of being defeated. Notice how everyone quaked in their boots at her very name and the name of her mentor. Not so much now, eh?

Did you just... use this board to literally troll one of its resident psychopaths out of hiding? That is absolutely brilliant. It doesn't put you in a significantly better place with the whole 'staying alive' thing, since Eclipse happens to be an army competitive with a state one and with a woven carbon grip on one of the wealthiest planets in the galaxy, but still, well done.

Anyway, Gorik. This is Lyons. You know, that human from Veratix? It might have been a bit over a year ago, but you're a krogan, that should be like yesterday for you. This is not a threat, it's a request. Please stop by one of the branches of my business so we can discuss compensation for events that took place there.

so volus with nice hat was pretending to be quarian girl trolled board so he could piss off psychotic mercenary who was already trying to kill him?

great plan!

... I really don't know how t'feel bout this.

...Najhil wants to be angry with OneClassyBloke for lying, but Najhil is too impressed. Also: welcome back.

Two ways.

...That is very clever of you. I still would be disinclined to take on a former Embodiment member, although it is just business...

You know where to find my company's personnel listings and package options, if you are interested in making use of our services. Please contact all operatives classed ARC-E and above in advance as they are permitted to turn down a contract.

How about a round of applause? I must say, that was very clever.

I wish you the best of luck; if you require protection or aid please, don't hesitate to contact us.

[Myrmidon Security Services].

Well played good sir.

Trex: NO.

The utter inanity of these boards never fails to disgust me. Quite why I keep coming back... Bile fascination, perhaps?

And I am going to have to have words with our recruiters, if this is the standard we're hiring on. I understand that the war left us short-staffed, but honestly.

Ok. That was fucking awesome. I'd raise my hat to you, good sir, but that would just be insulting on my part considering your taste in head apparel.

Looks like I am late to all of this...

But I think that I shouldn't have come in the first place.

Ah... CDN. Never change.

Huh. So after plexing 'Embodiment', 'Suri' and 'Abattoir', all I've got out of this thread is:

1. Don't trust the extranet and
2. Petty little murderess finds a home with the galaxy's largest gang of petty little murderesses. Who'd have thought?

That said, volus, if you're going up against Eclipse then I wish you the best of luck. You'll need it.

Eclipse isn't renowned for its loyalty to its own member. Did you try paying them to killer her themselves? I'm pretty sure they'd go for it.

Eclipse are more than happy to throw away their troops' lives as long as they fulfil their contract, but killing their own's not really their MO. Makes it a little hard to attract recruits.

Oh, dear, you simply have it all wrong, don't you? Whilst the Blood Pack might be willing to let the vorcha eat each other, and I hear that the Blue Suns are suffering from some terrible infighting right now, Eclipse do not kill their own. Except for the deserters, of course, but then they aren't really Eclipse any more, are they?

So, on the one hand, you managed to root out the successor to the Embodiment all with an extranet board account and a stereotypical valley girl persona. One the other, you just rooted out the heiress of the Embodiment. You are so absolutely fucked.
