Musings of a Con

Subject: Name Withheld
Location: Jita Solar System


They say the devil's greatest deception was convincing the world he didn't exist. I'm not the devil, but in my line of work, it's important I convince the universe that I am someone else, something other than what I am, basically, that I don't exist. What am I? Call me a rogue, a thief, a criminal, but I would say I am a teacher. I teach people valuable lessons, I am a con artíste. Corporations exist to be taken advantage of. They sit in concord patrolled space and think they are invulnerable. I teach them that they are not.

It is the challenge that drives me, my job is not easy, and I do it only for myself. My services are not for hire. Think what you will of me, but I do not hate my competition; you are all my competition. I merely look at life as a contest, a game if you will, and it is meant to be played to win. The greats are still out there to be beaten, and my name added to the unwritten Con hall of fame, but I am well on my way.
