People like me weren't supposed to make it off the ground. Born in the shadow of Caldari Prime’s megastructures, I grew up with the clang of factories in my ears and the stench of coolant in my lungs. My parents worked their hands raw for the corporations, and everyone expected I’d do the same. Punch the clock, earn just enough to keep breathing, and dream small. But that life? It was never gonna be enough for me.

Even as a kid, I’d stare up at the night sky, wondering what was out there. Not the trade routes or the mapped systems—everyone knew those. I mean the unknown, the places no one talks about. Wormholes, they called them. Dangerous, unpredictable, full of secrets. To me, they weren’t just holes in space; they were doorways to something bigger.

I clawed my way out of that life, one hard-earned step at a time. I hit the books when others gave up, worked harder, stayed later. When the corporate academy finally let me in, I knew it wasn’t luck—it was because I refused to be just another cog. I trained in astrogation, anomaly analysis, and anything else that might get me closer to the stars.

Becoming a capsuleer wasn’t about power or ISK for me. It was about freedom. The kind of freedom that lets you dive into the unknown and not look back. Now I pilot my ship into the black, chasing things others are too scared or too greedy to care about. Each wormhole I jump through is a step further from the life I left behind and closer to the mysteries I’ve always wanted to uncover.

I don’t care if no one remembers my name or if I don’t leave a pile of ISK behind when I’m gone. What matters to me is the journey, the discovery. There’s something out there, something no one’s seen before, and I’m going to find it.
