Started playing this game in 2016 just for fun (you can also know Mantis as “Saya Kanzaki”). For now it’s… a part of my life (I’m smiling but it’s not a joke).  
I’m very interested in helping and communication, EVE is very, very social game. And I love our communities, where I met so many interesting people.  
My story will be short: from 2017 I was in small Russian wormhole community. I remember our funny flights and when I learned about this game… with them.  
From 2019 I live in nullsec with Russian-speaking alliances (MIDAS 22 and Red Alliance). For now I’m one of “little helpers” for our community. Yes, you can remember my cynos.  
And also I’m novice watercolor/CG illustrator, trying to paint spaceships (but it’s very hard, when you paint only flowers all your life).  
Why I’m applied to CSM? I respect everyone in this game (my friends, my community, my enemies), I want to help with their problems, questions… and also I want to communicate with CCP too! With new ideas and anything else. I want to beat with “bad behaviour” as RMT every day. And I’ll try to make more EVE-related arts.  
I’m not famous person but I hope to be very nice for all communities. 🥰  
I’m so sorry, this text so short. Have a nice day! o7

I’m really happy to present you additional content of my campaign (because I applied to CSM too late and my text was free-writing… and without artworks, yes)!

Every day I explore this game (for five years?!), every day I’m so happy with new content because… you are content-maker! And me too.  
This game is ART, and we are the artists of our gameplay!  
I’m interested in most different aspects of EVE like exploration, industry, other PvE content and a little PvP. 😅  
And also I like to help anyone! I want to help CCP in game discussions, with new content, with ART content in future!

I met so many people in this game… and new friends 🥰

Sometimes I do some pictures in traditional media, some of them are EVE-related…

I’m not professional artist (I’m not an artist, just trying in stock illustration like flowers or cats) but I hope to improve my skills in EVE-related content. 💪🥴

And sorry for my English, this text was free-writing again without any translator.  
I hope you like my works! 🥴 👌  
Feel free to ask me any questions! And please respect each other! 💖 ✨

Yes, I hope you like cats. Have a nice day!
