== About Ghost ==

[[Ghost Orm]] knew just about nothing about EVE when he joined E-Uni. Some say that statement is still true to this day. He found himself drifting from bar to bar until one day decided he should try and make something of his life. He'd heard of E-Uni and did some research. He was convinced if he was to make a reputation for himself in EVE, then this would be the place to do it. So he applied for membership.

''(Editors note : Actually Ghost was drawn to E-Uni by the abundance of attractive female staff profile portraits seen there. Imagine his horror when he heard them on voice comms and realised that 99% of them were actually guys. He consequently felt cheap, used and violated. An accurate epitaph if ever there was one and probably the nicest thing ever said about him. Rumour has it he is still scouring the EVE Universe & Marketplace for some ancient Jove invention that indicates just who is and isn't a real chick to this day!)''

In sheer desperation, and in need of a hug and cookie from the much feared [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/User:Laura_karpinski Evil Cookie Lady] (which actually ended up in a court case for improper and inappropriate behaviour and a perma-ban on cookies), he was press ganged into Service in the [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Personnel_Department Personnel Department] and his Undock Button was forcibly removed from all his ships. Somehow he managed to convince Laura of his worth. This obviously gave people the wrong impression that he knew what he was doing and was reasonably (in)competant. He was subsequently given a mop and broom and taken in chains to the PO Dept Office. He attacked the job with gusto, and soon the PO Dept floors were the shiniest in all of Aldrat. He began to hear whipers of concern around the department about their arch nemesis known only as "[http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Queue The Queue]" who was proving to be a definitive threat to the Dept. Ghost overheard a few hushed conversations taking place in bars and brothels around the base and a plan was hatched to take on the mighty Queue.

This actually turned into Ghost's proudest moment so far in EVE to date, when along with some of his esteemed PO friends & colleagues, in particular [~~http~~:~~//wiki.eveuniversity.org/Evis_Cerate~~ Elvis] and [~~http~~:~~//wiki.eveuniversity.org/Ulfric_beldrulf~~ The Ulf], were awarded the [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/EVE_University_Medals#Service_Medal_of_Excellence EVE University Service Medal of Excellence] for being part of an elite E-Uni PO Dept Special Ops Stealth Ninja Hit Squad that decimated "The Queue" from 3 weeks to 24 hrs in less that 12 days.

However Ghost and Elvis then began to consequently whine like girls because there was now too little work to do afterwards and certainly not enough for them to train newbro POs.

''(Editor's Note: Just can't please some people eh?)''

Elvis in fact became so disillusioned and mentally unstable that he started to plot a Coup and began a mini rebellion in the PO Dept by forcing unwary serving and new POs into downloading contraband software and holding meetings in strange woods and lands of mythical magic and sorcery, more commonly known to mortals as the dreaded World of Warcraft. ''(Editor's Note: WoW - A game for Girls!)'' Desperate to stop the constant whining, PO Management decided to take desperate measures and increase their workload and promote Ghost, Elvis & The Ulf to a [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/SPO#Senior_Personnel_Officer_.28SPO.29 Senior Personnel Officer] role, hoping this would have the desired effect. It didn't. However, Ghost was shocked and horrified that Elvis was gradually increasing his Army of Darkness, led by [~~http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/w/index.php?title=~~User:~~Turlough_Dominian&action=edit&redlink=1~~ The Evil Turtle] and even The Ulf had been brainwashed to attend these satanic meetings. ''{Editor's Note: Rumours that these satanic gatherings are sanctioned by the [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Directors#Director_of_Human_Resources Director of HR] himself are totally unjustified and false - honestly (ish)!)''

One night when scrounging for crumbs left over from everyone else's cookies, Ghost found the key to the drawer containing the staff Undock Buttons. He cackled with glee as he took the key and launched out the airlock, an evil glint in his eye. He soon found an innocent target to vent his frustration but became confused at his inability to target lock and kill it until he realised that in his rush for freedom, he'd actually boarded his Pod and not a shiny combat vessel. So to restore some street cred he orbitted the concerned ship and waved before re-docking. Ghost quickly destroyed all evidence of PodGate by erasing it from the onboard flght recorder. After praying no-one had noticed, he reshipped and started to learn some PvP tips from exasperated colleagues and found himself regularly used as target practice as a result.

To further compound the dark mysteries of what goes on in Aldrat, a bizarre incident took place in early October when Ghost found himself awarded the [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Graduate#Graduate University Graduate Title]. Not sure if this was his Boss's way of telling Ghost to GTFO and move on, he decided to risk the wrath of the Uni by staying n and getting involved in another project, the brainchild of his friend [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=36884 Br00ksy] who has an unhealthy blood lust for shooting and killing things.

Br00ksy had wanted to create a new Campus, or group which would take the fight to the enemy, regardless of the location. He also knew that it would be a great opportunity to teach new Unistas how to fly in fleets, use ~~corecct~~ Comms procedures and tactics and have fun watching Uni enemies die in big explosions. But he was too scared to kick start it himself and wanted someone else to take the blame if it all went wrong. After many drinks one evening in Br00ksy's ~~favourite~~ seedy bar, he found his fall guy - Ghost.
