Are there any special rules for transfering a character to myself on the same email?

I have 3 characters on an Epic Games account that is giving me fits after switching to Linux. It specifically has to deal with the Epic signin and authentication. I would like to create a brand new account through the Eve Online website process (under the same email account), and I don’t mind paying the $20 fee for all three characters. Just transferring to my own dang self.

Do I need to do anything special to make sure this is permitted? I can drop corp and pause skill gains as I’ve seen posted, I just REALLY want to get away from the EGS login loop.

Nope, they just follow all the same rukes as any character transfer. Must be in npc corp and account transfered to must be omega.

Appreciate it!

Can’t get the account to show up in the launcher ?

Steam accounts give the option of creating a username and password login, if the only reason you are doing it is to get a vanialla login for the launcher. I assume the same would be true for a epic game store login.

I have 5 accounts, my main is a Steam account that I indeed used to option to create a web login to avoid this trouble. CCP’s documentation and people on this forum and Reddit all say there is no option for doing this with EGS logins. There is a guide OTF to attempt a workaround of how the Eve launcher calls the EGS login prompt (Pop!_OS), but I can’t get it to work (skill issue with copy/paste reaction times and hacking authentication code in the webpage calls, literally). I wish it was as easy as the Steam solution!

Does not have to be omega to transfer on either account
