'Sup, CDN? Tides, this is a bit of a story, so bear with me.

A buddy of mine (not an Eclipse buddy, fyi, just someone I know) is trying to put together a little one-off piracy gig out of Omega - only problem is that his usual operators are either off-station or just not up to scratch, and he can't afford a proper team like my girls.

I know there're a shit-ton of mangy freelancer solo types on here, so I thought I'd throw a bone your way. They're looking for maybe three people for a one-time-only pirating job - you board the ship while it's docked, you take out the guards, you land it somewhere else and get paid.

If anyone's interested, post here with a secure resume and once my pal's had a look, they'll get back to you.

Serious offers from people actually on Omega only, BYO equipment, mechanical experience or some engineering qualifications a plus. Have at it!

And tides. Bloody frog owes me a drink, but anything to get that "quarian stripper" thread off the forum's front page.

Because there aren't enough action threads, essentially. This threads for a small team of PCs who want a thread where good writing/ideas will be rewarded and where player actions will have meaningful consequences.

Want to take part? Awesome =) Like Corona-the-character said, please post a short (IC) resume for your character in this thread. Anything is good as long as it builds your character and let's me know where they fit in a team, if that makes sense? Here's one I made earlier, if you're having trouble coming up with a format:

Ketjap Manis - drell, mid 40s

Previous employment:
  • Alliance 'N7' Special Operations, Taskforce White Rhino. Squad infiltrator.
  • Poison Knives 2 Division. Squad infiltrator. Served on Omega, Laval and Old Drevos. Left after the Cerberus Occupation.
  • ERCS Thirteenth Battalion. Close protection detail. Served for three years on Noveria and Bekenstein.
  • Illuminated Primacy Compact Defence Forces. Infiltrator. Six years. Left due to irreconcilable differences with handler.

I can't pretend that I play well with others, but if you want someone who can break into or out of any fortress you care to name, I'm your woman. Just don't rely on me for sniper support or pair me up with a krogan and I'll get the job done.

Have fun and post away - characters with the right skill set will be pinged after the weekend ^^

...yes, I miss writing a drell and yes, Indonesia makes the best sweet soy sauce. Prove me wrong =/

Too bad I have a legit job, sounds like easy fun.


And if the "quarian stripper" thread is so irritating, i can make sure it stays on the front page, just to irritate the void out of you.

If you aren't:

a) a freelancer; or
b) interested in the job;

Then take your bucket fetish and fuck off out of my thread. Tides, create your own fucking thread if your fantasies mean that much to you.

Edit: Do not make a thread about your sexual fantasies. C'mon freelancers, where are you?

Need firepower? Got it right here.

Private Message to user Corona I've worked in many fields across known space and the years, such as private security with ExoGeni in the 2170's, bouncing clubs on Omega and Illium, warfare with Argam Militia and Telhod Liberation Front on Telhod in 1900's and then in the third Tangealian war in between 1940-1943 with the 52nd Heavy Auxiliaries with the Royal Velkan Armed Forces and trained them later on after a century. I've been part of raiding and pirating crews in the Omega Nebula and Ismar Frontier and ran my own crews in the Traverse in the 21st century. Shit, I even worked with the Talons during the war and did a stint with Blue Suns after that. Shittiest two years I can remember in the past 100 years, nothing but garrisoning.

Fuck the Suns

There was a resume covering three centuries here, but the forums ate it. I am upset.

Openly recruiting for piracy? Check.

Asking for freelancers specifically? Check.

Asking on the extranet? That's a big check.

Oh, and Isadore's in here whining too. So that's a check as well.

Mhm, this thread nicely rounds out my Retard Bingo sheet.

Hey Celeste, how about threatening to hunt all of them down and murder them? That usually works!

Oh, i think you forgot the part where this is a setup, hence the freelancers. If you were to hire proffessional pirates (myself) the ship might actually be captured, giving you a load of trouble with whoever wanted it staged. In short, BULLSHIT JOB

Resigned, numbnut. I've been lot of outfits over the years, and the Suns didn't impress me much. You'll burn bright alright, but like your namesakes, you'll also burn out quick. What are you going to do when your employer folds out?

Fuck the Suns

Percentage shares being the juiciest bit left off the table.

No Eclipse run sign ups D'Veyra? Your not running ops on the side are you? I'm shocked really. Course I suppose if Eclipse don't like it I should be all for it. I'd volunteer but being a rent-a-cop baits a young mans game and I'm just not that dumb any more. Besides signing up with some Eclipse Enid probably wouldn't look so good on my Suns record would it?

But if we all get turfed out over Tshombesha I'll give you a bell.

Better not be, or you'll get stuck in a Corrections unit just like all the other poor fuckers Command decided to yank away.

No, Centurion, it wouldn't. We need at least one or two vets with us still, so try not to piss off higher too goddam much.

Private Message to User Corona
I will be honest with you. I have just now started the freelancing gig and still trying to build a reputation. So I am not as experienced in battle as say, a krogan or asari but have been.. trained for it since childhood. And I have served in several small skirmishes before the Reaper War, and fought in several battles during the Reaper War on Tortuga. Of which I gathered most of my leadership experience. But, having grown up in the Abyss I am skilled at dealing with things others would consider morally questionable. Like piracy for instance.

I am also a skilled biotic. Possibly not to the level of an asari. But I have been training them most of my life and they should be more than enough for this gig. And also skilled in marksmanship (though I suppose that one is obvious)

Sorry for the wait, gents and ladies, but the Frogsterious Stranger's made up his mind - FierceSun, Stygian and elcor lady-dude, you're up. He'll be pinging you shortly.*


Be ashamed. Be very ashamed. Tides.

Eh. Anything I'm leaving out, it's 'cause I don't know myself. Like I said, just tryin' to help a friend out.

And I thought you knew me, Dunn. Runnin' ops is harder work for less pay, 'least til the tungsten starts flying.

Don't even joke about Tshombesha. Tides.

Remate arcology. Don't worry about the quarantine signs, they're just for show - walk in and follow the scent of perfume over to our meet-up, k?

I'm looking forward to writing with you all! =)

You see, you joke about that, but I guarantee that at least one person would have taken that seriously and gone there. That is the kind of person this site attracts.

Now if we could just convince FourEyes to head down there we'll be in business.

Yeah, it's a bit sad - I hear some people are still getting themselves killed on the anti-p mines we left scattered around the edges.

Kinda proves Rala's Third Theory of Evolution, don't it? Tides.

...as a heads-up for those who don't know, I'm Australian, so that 'today/tomorrow' in the last OOC bit should be adjusted accordingly =)

Edit: "Adjusted accordingly." This is why you shouldn't post at work >.<
