Day 2 04.07.cy113
after having a restful sleep i stretched my legs, got dressed and started studying the basics of Mechanics. i spoke with Potillot, my Exploration Agent and started my training in scanning for Magnetometric sites. this is what most interests me so i'm ready to get started. i was given a skillbook on Surveying and began studying that and i was given a Civilian Analyzer and a Civilian Salvager for my mission.
wow! scanning is tough and a pain sometimes but i feel accomplished when i am successful. i have done Magnetometric and Radar site scans now. for Magnetometric sites one uses a Salvager for ship wrecks and an Analyzer for archeological finds, both sound extremely enticing enterprises. for Radar sites one is actually hacking into a secure system so a Codebreaker is used. apparently security can be notified however and thus will attack! it sounds interesting, especially since the rewards are invention materials, but i'm pretty scared to encounter much opposition. the fellows at sister school EVE University advise me to train under all the career agents, so maybe soon enough i will not be so frightened of combat. for now i am going to rest and study up on Mechanics, Surveying, Frigate operation and Navigation. will write more soon.
after a bit of dinner i started my last assignment from Potillot scanning for Ladar sites. it took quite a long time, there was a sort of issue with the passkey i got, but it worked out fine in the end. i'm sorry to say goodbye to Potillot (though i hated his retarded blonde dreads) but i think i'm ready to move on. i have been advised by my friend Mina Lege that the business track is a good one to get a handle of so i'm going to try for my first mission from Antogase the business agent.
after a little delivery mission and picking up a blackbox from some pirates i have continued to expand my horizons. the next mission Antogase had lined up for me involved some mining so i picked up an assignment from Voenins the mining agent as well. it went pretty well, mining Veldspar is slow but worthwile work. i did get attacked by some Serpentis pirates and i had my blaster off to conserve power! it was intense! i survived with barely a scratch to my shields and made a good haul of Veldspar which i will be refining into Tritanium. i've also just earned my first million ISK! wow it's a day i've been dreaming of for quite some time and now i can say i'm a millionaire!
i have been jumping from agent to agent, making money from agents and selling stuff i get on the side. my balance is around 1mil 700thousand now...raking in ISK is fun and pretty easy, who would have thought? i've met a few friends in my travels and have gone as many as 6 jumps away from my home system of Trossere. i hesitated a little upon entering a system with a 0.5 security rating as i'm used to Trossere's 0.9 security rating but i have yet to run into any real problems. i'm typing this while autopilot takes me back home, and i will rest my head. i've got a lot of studying to do, hopefully those audiobooks i've gotten will assist me in learning while i snooze.
