Introduction for Bektar Telamon

Short introductions, those are the worst :)
Who am I? Am I my actions or my opinions? Doesn't my actions reflect my opinions? But then again, someone has to perceive my actions and interpret them. What a mess... I'll stick to what I am and leave the rest out there for everyone to find out ;)

I am a 27 year old swede. I moved back to the northern parts of Sweden about a year ago after studying theoretical physics for a couple of years down south at Linköping University. Right now I'm working part time while taking some random economy courses.

In the real world I enjoy the outdoors, running, swimming, sailing and riding my motorcycle.

In game I'm a semi casual gamer. I switched from world of warcraft to eve about two months ago and I'm still trying to find my place in New Eden. My first goal is to get myself a Rokh since I like the way it looks (if I learned one thing from WoW its that looks>all) and after I've accomplished this goal I'm thinking about going into wormholes or whatever keeps me entertained. My guess is I will be able to play for a few hours two or three evenings per week.
I heard about you guys in the recruitment channel and you directly caught my attention. I've read about Ayn Rand and heard about Atlas Shrugged. I have actually been trying to get a hold of it the last couple of weeks. As it happens I woke up with "The communist manifesto" in my back pocket after being out drinking just before christmas, and I hear Atlas Shrugged is THE book for a capitalist so looking forward to reading the other side of the story :)

What I expect from you is some good company and I will do my best to return the favor if I am given the opportunity.

Regards
Bektar Telamon

Ya know as cool as the Rokh looks it really isn’t good for much in game. Not a good mission boat. It has some very limited PvP roles as a sniper or a close range blaster, but not many people use ‘em. It has a long training time, and high cost to buy. You might not be too happy with the opportunity cost on once you get into the Rokh.

If it is worm hole PvE you aspire to then the ship to aim for is the Dominix. There are standard fits defined for you in the forums (once you get accepted).

If you wanna stay Caldari instead of Gallente... for mission running I'd push towards a Drake. Fitted out correctly the Drake can handle any level 3 mission and does not cost too much or training time to get into one.

Welcome to the forums and good luck with the application process.
