    All the Guristas fiction I've worked on while trying to make 6NJ-8V a trade hub for Venal

    ​

    Hi it's me again - Avio Yaken. If you remember me, I was the guy pushing to get a trade hub in 6NJ8-V established. And more or less that objective has been completed and 6NJ Serves as THE if not one of the economic centers of the region (Looking at you N5Y)

    Aside from making my mark on the EVE universe and creating something for other players to get involved with, there was a deeper motivation for why i put in the effort to make that project happen. And the answer is Roleplaying. I'm entirely motivated by RP in EVE and I'm deeply invested with the Guristas as a faction.

    While building up the trade hub I've worked to produce as much fiction as i can about the Guristas in hopes of expanding their lore and offering a new perspective, short stories averaging out at 1k words a story in a writing style I've developed over my years as a RPer in EVE online.

    After 28 stories and a couple of side nodes, I think I'm ready to compile everything and present it to the wider EVe community to check out, but first - Some context.

    My Intentions

    ------------------------------------

    As stated I wanted to see more of the Guristas faction and done what i can as a player and not a dev in charge of the game's lore. Because of this, most of my fiction is very flawed in some regards, but I've hunted down every trace of official lore i could for the faction and tried to ever expand upon it or flesh it out in my work. My aim is to humanize the Guristas, I do not intended to portray them as good guys - but i also do not intend to portray them as evil scumbags as the narrative sometimes portrays them as. I did this out of love and hope that I can give people in the EVE community a more positive look at a faction that is treated as cannon fodder by the game's mechanics and maybe make some sympathizers.

    ​

    Suha Raibuya

    -----------------------------

    ​

    Anyone remember that anime girl i had as a logo for the VPN? That was Suha Raibuya, a character I designed and use as a main character throughout all the content you'll be reading. While some stories follow the perspective of random Guristas members, Suha's will have own presence in each story as she is the main character of this whole arc, she ties heavily into 6Nj becoming a trade hub.

    She's someone that has been raised in a Guristas owned farming colony and grew up desiring to join up and become a Gurista herself, only wash-out in the training process and be denied her dream. Unable to become a pirate she takes up a new life as a 'Guru" teaching a new version of Wayism (Caldari State spirituality) that goes against State teaching and given a meaning that is far more suitable to the Guristas way of life - And you'll learn more about this teaching in the various stories.

    I have a deep love for this character as she is the vessel in which i present this new perspective on the Guristas in a attempt to humanize them and make them a more morally gray faction and not just pure evil.

    Here's some small context behind her character.

    Without Suha, there never would've been a trade hub.

    Dear CCPeople,

    ​

    Would you be so friendly and add a list of BPCs to every respective decryption skill so mere immortals like us don't have to check every item or use third party databases to find out something as basic as knowing what you need a skill for?

    ​
