All regular agents have a name, a Level, and a Division. Storyline Agents will be covered later. "Level" describes the general difficulty level of the mission that the agent can offer you and can range from 1 to 5; it also affects the standings you need to reach in order for this agent to give you missions.

For an agent to offer you missions, you must reach a certain standings requirement which depends upon the agent's Level. For those partial to formulae, the standings calculation is ((Agent Level * 2) - 3) The final requirement is:

*Level 1: Any standings

*Level 2: 1.0 or higher

*Level 3: 3.0 or higher

*Level 4: 5.0 or higher

*Level 5: 7.0 or higher

To be offered missions from the agent, either the agent's personal standing towards you, their corporation's standing towards you, or their faction's standing towards you must meet the requirement; any one of the three will suffice.

This agent is part of the Transstellar Shipping corporation, which is part of the Gallente Federation faction. The standings requirement is therefore 3.0, so at least one of the following 3 conditions must be true to get missions from Eveynel Daerne:
