I the beginning there were rocks. Brave souls toil against the harshness of space, pirates and raiders to extract the prized ore. Hauling the valuable commodity back to scattered bases where the treasure is refined into the building block minerals shaping everything in New Eden. Innovative spirits create, imaginative minds develop, and the intrepid seek out new systems to explore and chart.
Empires are built and lost with the might of armadas and the will to wage war. Within the ruin, scavengers extract the most valuable components; refurbish and repurpose them to those in need. Economies surge and plunge as large swaths of space change hands. Traders exploit these market swings to accumulate large profit margins.
Such is the way of the industrialists. The backbone of New Eden. Enemies of no one, friends to those whose ISK pay for the services and goods provided. For those looking for fortune in place of fame, ISK in place of notoriety, the industrialist career awaits.
