Lan Man as of YC124

Lan Man

Lan Man (he/him/they) entered New Eden on 1 October YC124 (2022). Lan completed capsuleer and career agent training at Hadaugago II - Moon 1 - Republic Military School, and proceeded shortly after to apply to Eve University, enrolling on 5 October YC124.

In the Real World

I had played Eve Online in 2013-2014 for a period of ~8 months under a different character, flying at first with BRAVE in Syndicate, and then with IRL friends in a lowsec pirate corporation. I drifted away due to other gaming interests, and discomfort at not being able to contribute meaningfully in PvP as a low skill character. I returned to Eve in 2022 seeking a long-term game, but this time with willingness to embrace the complexity and learn the game fully. In that light I felt a need for a fresh start under a new name, and that enrolling in and seeking to graduate from Eve University would be a far better means to learn the game rather than jumping into the deep end of the pool as before.
