If someone was to write a biography about what you've done in DUST 514, what would it say?
Mine would essentially say what it would IC, as PIE would have it everything I do in game I do IC..... I consider this excepting the forums of course, unless outside the IGS.
Basically mine would say that almost a month after accepting my Immortality I joined PIE Inc, at the time a combined Ground and Capsuleer Alliance and Corporation, and within the intial few months before Chirstmas was heavily engaged in Faction Warfare against Carbon 7, New Age Outlaws, and Restlessspirits.
During that time the Amarr FW community was poorly manned, scattered and not used to playing as a team, additionally we were under manned and suffered for it.
With the Empires offering their new Rifles to Factional Contract takes the 24th Crusade and PIE Inc saw its chance and prior to the event has spent the weeks gathering more players to our channels and Q Syncs, as well as reaching out to EoN and Ancient Exiles who both responded positively.
During the event, and within 12 hours the Amarr Militia had regained on the ground upwards of 33% in Devoid and the Bleak Lands and was heavily engaged in plexing Metropolis. That very evening I signed into EVE and proceeded from system to system Reclaiming 7 systems, before standing down.
Within the next two days the entire warzone was Amarrian controlled and the start of the Amarrian Upswing EVE side coincided, claiming even more systems the second day.
We spent a full 2 weeks in control of the warzone before EoN and Ancient Exiles reverted back to their interests in Molden Heath, and it was another three weeks of bitter fighting before the Minmatar managed to push back and take back Metropolis and Heimatar.
However fleet side the Amarr held the entirety of the Warzone.
Three weeks after that the Amarr Dust forces burnt out, unable to keep up with the re-invigorated Minmatar FW groups spear headed by New Age Outlaws and Carbon 7, the former now aligned with WINMATAR alliance.
After that conflict and receiving my first Medal for Dust side action, PIE experienced it lull in player activity, I at the time was unsure if its player base would return to regular hours and joined Fatal Absolution for all of 2 days, before Aero and Aisha mentioned we could try something very interesting with corp mechanics.
We founded the Scions of Athra trying to get tour based cycles of Duty for Amarr FW players who would sign on with us for short sections of time, it worked well, but most players were cemented in their corporations, and leaving was too much to ask, as such the Scions fell into their own down ward slump.
Not long after Maikyl Metsar announced PIE Inc was founding PCLAS, the dedicated Dust wing of Praetoria Imperialis Excubatoris after much internal discussion, since most of our player base were PIE Inc initially we re-joined into more regular deployment hours.
Since then we have been more active in FW, organising Q-Sync's, and deployment sessions, as well as Orbital Bombing Runs for all Amarr Fac Warfare.
More recently we joined the plexing efforts for Arzad, knocking the system into vulnerability before stepping down, after which the Minmatar Dust side FW was able to replex back into stable.
All in all I have mainly been in FW since starting True Adamance, been engaged in 1 major Crusade and Amarr FW push both in space and on the ground.

And of course defend the assets we have in the current FW sphere as well as focusing our efforts on destabilising major offensive Plexing zones in EVE.
