You are walking around the massive corridor encircling the main summit rotunda. Lining the outer wall you see hundreds of doors and entrances, each one leading to the offices and quarters of the attending corporations. Your eyes absentmindedly skim the countless corporation names stenciled above the doors. Suddenly one of the entrances catches your eye. The door, a beautifully etched and inscribed golden portal, obviously imported by whichever corporation had set up there. You stop to examine it. To the right of the door is a similarly adorned plaque reading 'P.I.E.' in elegant Amarrian calligraphy. Above the door way is the inscription 'Semper Pax.'
You decide to enter, golden panels slide aside as you step forth into a brilliantly lit lobby. Its walls are tastefully set with bas relief designs, and all the furniture is of richly colored, exotic wood, upholstered with silver and blue velvet. From behind a nearby desk a uniformed man stands up and bows slightly.
"Welcome to the Emissary Offices of the Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris. Please take a seat and somebody will see you shortly." |

*A man in a military dress uniform emerges from the back offices, eyes glued to a datapad. He glances up at the clone, eyes narrowing slightly.*
"Ashaltiasten, I am Templar Metsar. Do you have business with the Praetoria?" |

steady slowly looks up to the man, a smart crisp uniform and a datapad fake attempt to look important and busy. waying his next words carefully he decided a bold move was best.
"greetings im known as steadyhand, im a 2nd generation clone... with all the joys that brings , i was advised you're looking for fighters that still share the faith i've had trouble with other outfits but was told your organization started with the egg heads"
steady held out his hand "either way, i need area to recover in and i was told you're one of few immortal groups that have stayed faithfull to the empire" |

*Metsar stares at the outstretched hand but does not return the handshake. His gaze shifts to the the blood vial on the man's necklace. He touches something on his datapad and then gives the man a serious look.*
"Sir, what is that around your neck?" |

A lone templar, wearing a full golden medium amarr dropsuit with red stripes, can sometimes be seen standing silently in attention right next to the desk. He has an Amarrian scrambler rifle shouldered on his back along with what looks like a sword with a golden hilt. The only identification to be seen is the number 12, under the PIE insignia, on his left shoulderpad.
Any inquires directed at the templar are forwarded to the uniformed man behind the lobby desk. |

"Sir, such an attachment to blood leads me to believe you may be, or have been, a member of the Sani Sabik cult. Commonly known as Blood Raiders."
*Metsar gives Steady a wry smile.*
"And so I'm forced to ask, how do you respond to such an accusation?" |

*Metsar stifles back an inner anger, his expression loses all emotion, hand twitching near the nova knife sheathed at his side.*
"Let me, and I can't empathise it enough, make it abundantly clear to you that PIE Inc does not tolerate or deal with blooders. Not now, not ever. However for some reason known only to the almighty, blooders constantly show up on our doorstep seeking redemption or acceptance. Now by the regulations of this summit I have to peacefully ask you to leave. And upon contemplating your impending actions be aware that my combat clone is very near." |

Another Templar enters the golden office, clad in the ornate combat armour of the Pratoriate, winding scrollwork adorns the chest piece where the inscription "The word of the Lord is pure" is written in brilliant calligraphy. He carried with him an Carthum Issue Scrambler Rifle, and takes a place at the side of the desk beside Templar Metsar and opposite Templar 12.
The face plate pulls back to reveal a young man with short cropped brown hair, dark eyes, and an aquiline nose, his expression is impassive, no sign of emotion.
"Is this wise commander?" He says with a refined dignity, his voice holds no compassion for the suspect before him. "This man blooder or not has fought for the Empire before, true he does not subscribe to our philosophies yet but that may come in time. Lord Lok'ri did once say that even sinners may be reclaimed and repent their actions...."
Suddenly a look of horror crossed the Templars face, he drops to a knee before Templar Metsar.
"My Apologies Commander, I spoke out of turn." |

*Metsar closes his eyes and takes a deep breathe, withdrawing his hand from the nova knife's vicinity. He opens his eyes and tries to return the persona of his expression.*
"Of course, Adamance. Unfortunately I'm not myself when sani sabik is mentioned. On that note I shall apologize, I suppose I didn't give him a chance to speak, nor say whether or not he is one."
*Turns to Steadyhand.*
"I shall quell myself this once because Adamance has attested that you fight for the Empire, is this so?"

Ooc(had to sleep :-P)
Steady looked deeply into the mans eyes.
"those quick to judge are the first to fall... I having nothing to do with the cult I was simply born their until a capsuleler blew up the station I was on. one sister of eve rescue team later. I found my self training on the Templar program. Until everyone implants went screwy. I still kept my self fighting for the empire. I'm proabaly one of the oldest clones still in regular active service. So I know a few things ever your organisation doesn't."
"also don't question my faith again" the irration I steady face was clear but was still calm given the exchange. Two years of fighting as a clone gave him a unnatural and unnevering level of confidence |

Adamance eyes Steadyhand and new found respect in his eyes.
Such anger will be tempered in time, he though to himself.
He glanced over to Metsar, awaiting the Templars reaction. |

"I shall question faith whenever I see fit. Such a heritage is no trifling matter, and such a response is not an over-reaction nor is the matter forgotten."
*Eyes Adamance for a moment.*
"Anyway I have a commlink to receive, it should not be long."
*Maikyl walks towards a door leading to the back offices, the panels open at his approach, and shut with a hiss moments later.* |

Steady quietly sits back a flicks off his suits shields.
"you would think someone who fort at pikes landing would get a bit more respect. Somtimes I think those in charge need to remove themselves from their bubble and remember the universe is made up of many people and true faith is hard to find after all any fool can quote a book." steady voice carrying around the room to see if any figures took the bait of coversation.
OOC(tis awsome not done anything like this ages for clarity /backstory grunt at pikes landing at which point was selected during combat so not a 1st gen.) |

Adamance waits for Metsar to leave the room.
A silence extends between the three soldiers in the room, Templar 12 stands proudly at the side of the desk in a dutiful manner.
"You mentioned Pike's Landing....what is this battle you speak of? This One knows not of it, my time with the Theology Council only recently ended, and since then I have been assigned to the 7th Fleet hunting traitorous Templars. |

Steadyhand gives a small grin.
"apologise I mock noone, my frustration simply extends from troubled times immortals are quick to anger without the fear of death and I feed this lack of fear of God's judgement colours their faith."
"and pikes landing is where your Templar troubles started. The first recorded deployment of clone troopers. I hazard a guess many of your victims mutter the phrase 514. I spent a good deal of time as an immortal dealing with these tainted clones including saving some of my brother's from heths madness."
Steady paused it had been a long time since he spoke with a new face outside the empresses program. "Tell me what Do YOU now of my kind??" |

"Little to None This One fears, my transition to this life was not easy, prior to this I was but a Sarum Family Imperial Guardsman, and since my Death I was inducted into the Templar programme at a Theology Council Monastery...."
He cuts off abruptly.
"You are one of the first then?"

Steady thinks carefully about the question.
"yes you could say but I'm not sure I can give u details as well. The program had it share of problems. Lucky the mordu legion kept a tight leash on us back then" he answers in a measured pace.
"you will find a lot of my generation grew tired of being experimented on but where still around. Some of the most dangerous men u will ever meet"

*A door to the back offices slides open and Metsar emerges, approaching the group warily.*
"Steadyhand, I have been told that your presence here is alright for now. However know that I'm keeping an eye out."
*He brings out his datapad.*
"Also know that I'm constantly monitoring the surveillance of this emissary. I can assure you the officers of the Praetoria are not 'bubbled.' I know of war, and you know nothing of my life. So I would caution you about making assumptions everywhere you go. It is not a wise course to follow." |

steadyhand breaks into a controlled smile.
"the comment was intended to provoke to understand the character of the men here and i've found it to my liking. I do understand your mistrust of me and i hope over time I can earn it and learn about your self to. Maybe a few ground operations will help clear the air later and you can see my skills in action.
I also apologies for any offence caused it has been a while since I last stood in "normal" company and the i think the adjustment will take some time. Do you are your men have any further questions you would like to ask, i truly do not wish any hard feelings and i do not make the best of first impressions"
steady liking what he found stood to attention in a smart and disciplined manner with a small if well hidden look of surprise that he was not waking up in a new clone |

*Not a second later Steadyhand hears the door open. In walks yet another man adorned in golden plating*
"The weak of mind are quick to judge with the slightest tempt." he spoke with impeccable timing, quoting the Book of Trials. He had been overhearing the conversation.
"My apologies, but I believe we met once before. On route to battle, was it not? I am Yassavi."
*The tone in his voice suddenly drops to a more serious inflection. His eyes became drawn to the vile of blood hanging around his neck, taunting him*
"Rest assure Steadyhand, our judgement will be thorough."
*For a brief moment Yassavi and Metsar exchanged stares, as if agreeing upon something unspoken. Then, giving off a quick shrug, Yassavi promptly continued to move along and enter the back offices.* |

steady looks at the new arrival with mild amusement.
"your group is sure a collection of characters. My callsign is steadyhand, i must ask how else would have an emissary, while such buildings make me uncomfortably you can not lie it makes a statement" with of hope of at least one friendly encounter steady looks around the room a bit more at ease knowing at least for the moment he was among people at least not trying to kill him for once.

"Ah, Kaldruen, hail. It's good to see you outside of an active combat operation. It seems we seldom see you in the offices. So what act of the Almighty has drawn you from the mountains?" |

Hail, old friend. It's been too long since we've last spoke. I simply needed a short rest from certain..Business. You know how it goes. I was thrilled to hear of this new lobby. Thought I would drop by and see how you were.

*The back doors slide open. Out walks Yassavi, who appears to be much more relaxed than he was before. Noticing Steadyhand hasn't left the lobby, he approaches him and places his hand upon his shoulder while giving a look of discontent.
His attention is then drawn to Foudre. They have never met, yet noticing the markings of PIE on the the soldier he feels as though he has known him for ages.*
"Hail, brother!"
