Legatus Egivand

A long time Cartel collaborator, Egivand left the Republic Military School after graduation. He immediately pledged his newly aquired capsuleer abilities to the service of the Cartel and formed the Empyrean Angels, a capsuleer corporation which actively supports Angel Cartel activities throughout New Eden.


Curse
Once we were mighty,
Stars bent to our will,
Our reach was infinite,
Our power incontestable,
With outstretched hands we tried,
To touch the face of perfection,
But we came too close,
To that which is not due mortals,
And our punishment is our curse,
Our endless sorrow.

- Translation of an old Jovian poem

"Perfection ain't all it's cracked up to be"

- Angel saying


The Syndicate
"A den of thieves, scoundrels, bandits, black market dealers, gamblers, pimps and prostitutes. All in all, a nice place for a holiday"

- Unnamed Gallente Senator.


Fountain
"You young pod pilots have it lucky! Why, back in my day, we didn't have these fancy pants lawless regions like Pure Blind and Stain! We had Fountain! We had to go to Fountain! Through Aridia, both ways! And it was infested with Blood Raiders! They stole our blood and we didn't complain. We liked it! Because the other option was going to Providence, and they had Sanshas who stole your BRAIN! So when you're out there, smoking your fancy tobacco, drinking your fancy spiced wine, and mining with your fancy Hulks, remember: it wasn't so long ago that we had to give our first born to the Emperor just for a chance to apply for a permit to mine in Fountain! So be thankful for what you have!"

- Old Prospector Yurskeld to anyone who will listen to him.
