A day in the life of a Starseeker.
As our great Pulsar rises above our citadel, the sleeping clone of a capsuleer is reconnected.
Moments after all the interfaces are loaded, a new clone is activated, leaving behind in stasis the one with expensive training implants, taking advantage of wormhole unlimited and isk free clone switching.
Time to check on the colonies, the planets here are rich and need a daily interaction to restart the extraction processes and move to safety the resources they produced. Meanwhile the pilot checks the tripwire map that other explorers from the alliance compiled. Jumps on coms, greeting everyone connected, checking the pulse of the wormhole.
Everyone is friendly as usual and the reports are of clear space, no hostiles, that means it’s time to jump in the exploration ship, update the chain, look for some treasure, scout for some content.
Praise Bob, the wormholes are rich, in less than an hour the ship is full of treasures from a bunch of relic site and a couple of data sites.
On the way back home a new signature is found, its a gas cloud, one of the rarest ones, one of the most valuable ones, so a duo of ventures form up and head that way.
Only a few minutes in and an enemy tengu is spotted on dscan, evasive maneuvers are employed while the backup is formed. The space is quiet, tension builds as a few minutes pass and there is no sign of the enemy, the defence fleet is waiting close, the two ventures pretend that all is well but they are on high alert, aligned to safe spots and keeping close eyes on all the scanners.
A moment later the tengu decloaks, he wants to deliver some torpedos, everyone thinks that’s weird but before it launches any, the ventures warp out, the defence fleet warps in, bubbles are up, tengu is forced to fight a real enemy.
Space is lit by explosions, the tengu goes down, spoils of the battle are taken home, the ventures return to finish the gas cloud. Once the ship hangars are full, the gas is taken home to be used for reactions, low taxes and great boosts make this a profitable activity.
A few more fights breaks out throughout the evening, a rogue proteus looking for a fight, a roaming fleet looking for trouble, our pilot helps out the alliance to push them back.
The home wormhole is teeming with activity, some pilots mining the new ore deposit, some prepare to bash some sleeper sites in our static wormhole, some are just chilling on coms whyle building all kinds of ships and modules in the citatels. But It’s time to activate the training clone, another day has passed, a day in the life of a Starseeker. ★
