Wolf is actually the call-sign my father used during the Great War. Hey yall, I was hauling when I came across your beacon and pulled up your charter on my HUD, Imperium eh? You sound like a fairly large organization, full of opportunity. I could use a bit of that, hauling solo runs in the core systems isn't what I imagine doing for the rest of my life. But let me introduce myself. My name is Johan Vulphen Ookami, but only my mother calls me that. Please, call me Wolf. I'm a Freelancer pilot hailing form the Lunis Cluster, Carpathia System. My father was a war hero, unfortunately like many war heroes he was awarded the title posthumously, leaving my mother to raise me on her own. I was only twelve at the time and my mother wasn't well enough to operate the farm with just me as help. So, we sold it and moved to the core worlds. I was enrolled in school and eventually grew into a man. For the past five years I've supported my mother in her ailing health making cargo hauls form system to system in this beat up Freelancer I inherited. The Jin-Jekkai is a fine ship don't get me wrong, but she was my father's ship, and probably hasn't seen a space dock in over a decade. This partly because I do my own repairs and partly because I can't afford much else. Up to this point I've been putting my dreams of following in my father's footsteps on the back burner while I took care of my mother. She died a few months back and with her death my responsibility and those things holding me to the milk runs of the core worlds are all gone. Why am I telling you all this? Good question, I don't suppose many people actually want to hear my life's story, but I'm an open-book sort of guy. I figure if I give you the truth about where I'm coming from, I might land a position somewhere on the bottom and be given the chance to work my way up. That's certainly more than I have right now so here's my spin. I have a Freelancer and a few months’ worth of credits saved up to give her an overhaul so that she’s more than just a pretty face. But if I do that I’ll be prit-near flat broke and will need some gainful employment. I am a hard worker, and despite my lack-luster education I’m pretty sharp when it comes down to what’s practical and probable. I am a man of honor and integrity. I don’t own much but an honest man’s word has to be worth something. I’m willing to do whatever it takes, so long as you don’t ask me to put innocent folk in harms way. I’m trying to make an honest living without turning color and going pirate like so many young men and women do if the news vids are to be believed. You should also be aware that I don’t want to be a hauler forever. My father fought and died in the cockpit of an old F7A, a Hornet. One day, when I’ve earned it with my own two hands, I’m going to have my own Hornet, an F7C-M. I want to protect others who need protecting. Being a fighter pilot is in my blood but I’m a patient man. The ol’Jekkai and I will work hard for you however best we can if you’ll take us. I only ask that one day, when I’ve acquired my Hornet, you give me the opportunity to try out for Combat Ops. Until that day, consider this my application to Trade and Industry. Alright, I’m-a-hit send and see if this broadcaster of yours is still working, I’ve made myself late enough on this run as it is. I’m sending a data-burst with my personal CommSpecs if you decide to get back to me. This is probably a longshot chance but my father had this saying, "A wolf howls at the moon and a young man chases his dreams, no power in the vers can stop either one." Signed J.V.O Wolf.
