We’ll be using server 12-F on Hurston unfortunately. Hate this dustball.

The Euterpe safehouse was aired out last week by Advocacy punks, but we’re workin’ on a replacement.

Contact our boy Shaka if you need some noodles or a place to stay for the night.

History Manifesto Charter

History

The face of the galaxy is always changing.

There was once a Black Trade Network, something quite Taboo.

It was a vast, unsanctioned freelance fleet. The fleet operated free of government or syndicated influence for years. It had its runners and its flagships, its mercenaries and its homesteaders, its explorers and its researchers. Our role within the fleet was to deal in misinformation to keep our space lanes free of lawmen and pirates alike. It was a free market of ideas, its patrols taking the fleet from Pyro to Stanton, then onto Magnus where the fleet would resupply and recommission before doing it all again.

Those were the days, man, before the Jumpgates closed.

The Black Trade Network was scattered to the wind, our way of life killed in its infancy.
Our freelance fleet was splintered and torn apart bit by bit.
With parts of the fleet in different systems, the isolated factions made easy targets for our enemies.

Well, most factions were easy targets. Not Effigy though.

Effigy, baby. Get used to the name.
Through a combination of state-of-the-art combat training, long term embedded infiltration, and open diplomatic outreach, Effigy is poised to offer what the fleet once did: Safety, Wealth, and Freedom.

And the face of the galaxy is changing once again.

We have received confirmation of our assets in Pyro coming online for the first time in years. We are also receiving reports of Jumpgates booting up again, while still scratching our heads on why they closed in the first place. We don’t know if the Gates still operate like they used to, or if our jump drives still work. We don’t know how long things will progress before our next crisis.

What we do know is: when we look out for one another, nobody stands a chance against us.

We are Effigy.

Join us.

Manifesto

Lots of people tell us that as an Intelligence Company we’d be more effective if we were more discreet and didn’t announce who we were. A guard at Crossroads Station brought that very point up the other day. I’ll tell you what I told him.

Effigy was founded on the premise that an intelligence company, as any other, can be run efficiently, lucratively, and ethically. Here at Effigy, even if you know who we are, if we are tasked with seeking information we promise to find a way to take it from you. For that reason there are absolutely no secrets between our agents and potential employers or targets.

The good news in all of this is that our Agents are generally pretty friendly, as our founder was an idealist and pacifist. He wanted Effigy to be for seekers of truth. He wanted our Agents free of the secrets and lies of the spy trade. He wanted us to be arbiters of change, professional in our dealings, dignified in demeanor.

May he rest in peace.

As the founder dictated, we should indeed strive to construct a web of alliances until we have no enemies. Then we can truly be free. That’s why we don’t take jobs that target our friends no matter the price tag. So if anyone is interested in becoming a proper Effigy Agent or one of our Friends, just apply or shoot a message to the Concierge.

If you just aren’t interested in being our friends or insist on being our enemies, everything you are is fair game.

If someone hires us to take you out, just know it’s not personal.
We’ll try to make selling your secrets as quick and painless as possible.

That’s the pitch anyway.

Charter

We only have three rules, so try your best to remember them.

  1. Agents never take a life, unless the contract requires a life be taken.
  2. Agents never take contracts against Friends.
  3. Contracts from the Hole are open to all, and Agents are not prohibited from interfering with other Agents’ completion of a contract.

We try to keep things cool as we conduct business. If everyone stays calm and the job gets done, we get paid and everyone goes home. Nice and easy. But some jobs take strange turns, and it’s up to each Agent to keep their composure.

Take a deep breath, remember your training, don’t forget to take comms down ahead of time and everything will be fine.
