OOC Commentary by RageChild

This is a "play" Gaelbhan and I worked on for about one week before unleashing it on EVE Online.

Most of the creative aspects originated with Gaelbhan Wulf. I managed to pitch a couple of ideas, in particular the hint-at context relating to Idonis Ardishapur and Starkman Prime. As a side-node We had a disagreement with CCP on the location of Starkman Prime. We thought it should be Ezzara and not Arzad based on the earlier official chronicles ... and we are sticking with our version.

I did the grunt work sourcing and staging the Amarr frigates, the virus, the corpses, etc and prayed no one would mess with them before the event started.

Everything then unfolded just as they described in this chronicle.

We had an outline of the plot to start, but the participants really took to the drama with their actions in-game and their forum posts, and the event ended up to be a truly collaborative effort.

Gaelburn and I were astonish when Admiral Ezar caused his Battleship to be blown up by CONCORD to save Dr. Amarria Darcest. We had a good chuckle as we did not expect PIE to go so above and beyond! Apocalypse was a rather expensive ship at the time!

Bravo Admiral Ezar Vorbarra and PIE!
