Introduction

I started playing Eve in July of 2009. After getting somewhat bored, and a bit ragey, with WoW I was looking for another game like it, but different. Being on a Mac limited my options somewhat and after looking around a bit I found an ad for Eve and decided to give it a go.


The first character I made was Gallente. I think at the time that I was still pretty much 100% bear. I had done some PvP in WoW (BG's and such), but mainly I played on a PvE server and did the usual instance/quest/grind stuff and was used to, and comfortable with, the constricted PvP rules that exist in WoW. Eve was a big change from that, and I liked the change.


About two weeks in I realized that Gallente just didn't feel right to me, plus I had really f'd up the portrait and with no way to change that I decided to create another character and so Toshiko was born and the first character was biomassed a couple of days later.


My original intent with Tosh was to be a pirate (Yar!) 'cause that's what sounded good at the time. What I ended up doing instead was spending the next few months just trying to learn the in's and out's of Eve. I found a high-sec home that I liked and settled into a life of missioning, which really wasn't a bad idea for me. Then circumstances led to me letting the account lapse for about six months or so.


When I returned I did some missioning, some ganking in Hulkageddon IV, and some high-sec ninja work with SN. Now, with the recent events of the summer, and some recent RL events that have limited my discretionary income, I've let the account lapse again, but it's in a stasis. I haven't completely given up on CCP, so I'm keeping an eye on #tweetfleet and watching the forums to see how things work out. Hopefully I'll be back in the pod before too long.
