Greetings fellow capsuleers, Im currently writing a book based on the EVE-Online universe. I havent got a name for the main char yet and i need some ideas for what his job was before he became a capsuleer (he obviusly needed to finance becoming a capsuleer) He is Amarrian from [Sarum Prime VI](https://evemaps.dotlan.net/system/Sarum_Prime/VI). I had the idea farmer/farm owner as his original job bcs amarr is famous for theyr not gen-modified wheat but idk if thats enough cash to become a capsuleer. And i dont know what other jobs there are in the EVE-Universe for the non capsuleers lol. ---

Capsuleers controlled ships use reduced crew compared to standart ships, but they still need some crew ---

That is the feeling from a player perspective, but not lore wise. Lore wise capsuleers ship are way more agile to respond to commands, etc, and require way less ppl ---

If you’re not keen on cycling through names in the character creation section or the fantasy name generator, you can try looking up names of Christians in the Middle East and Caucasus. Armenian, Georgian, Assyrian, Coptic, etc. ---

Yeap, a crew in the Amarrian empire would be cool, specially because there’s Blood Raiders and Sansha Nation around and the crew are terrified about the idea of getting kidnapped by them… in fact those two pirate factions want to kidnapp people alive which leads to boarding ships and gunfights Blood Raiders will want to kidnapp powerful people for their blood rituals, so being in the crew of a powerful skilled pilot increases your chances of survival on space but also will attract Blood Raiders, it’s a two edged sword Sansha Nation will kidnapp just anyone afaik, since they just want more slaves Not everybody is a capsuler in the EVE universe, it’s like the 1% of the 1%, very few people are capsulers who are immortal or almost immortal because of clonning ---
