The early years

A:ma: was layed, hatched and grew up on the coasts of an uncharted little planet revolting around a dying class-g star in galaxy 3 and belongs to one of the prawn-like species - btw. calling one of them a shrimp is considered a cardinal crime- living all over the planet. Though technically interested, they are more what you would call a grounded people, if you can say this about water preferring species.

SaR teams from Fractulus sometimes landed to rescue stranded spacers, and once when A:mah was very young there was a huge Capisasstra space invasion in orbit, which was successfully beaten back (although to be honest, the planet had so little to offer the Capisasstra probably retreated as soon they realized it.)

But all this lit a spark in A:ma:. He looked up into the sky, listened to stories about long gone heros like Ro:dn:, K:irk:, Cur:tis:Newt:on:, M:Clane, Str:aker: or the adventures about a prawn called a:sur, who was taken along a trip to the stars, when his home planet was destroyed by a poetry loving alien race. He always dreamed about walking the sky one day...

When Amah (which is the transcript in GALcop unispeech) got into his years of exploration, he heard about two spacers called B:ell: and B:raben:, C:obra:3: spaceships, and a C:riol:s in a place L:ave: He got curious, and with his best friend Ma:D:og sneaked on a tradingship. How he got to L:ave: and what is more improtant how he ended up with 100c and a trusty cobra mk.3, powered by its powerfull c:64 main computer bank himself is not know anymore, also what happened then is all but a fading memory... All what is still certainly known, he later upgraded the ship's main computer to a A:mig:a and made it even to the frontier.

If you could see, what I've seen with your eyes.

After some time Amah returned to his home planet, he settled down but always longed for space. One day he heard rumours about an Explorer called G:ile:s. He learned the Universe has changed (its name).He saw holo pictures of breathtaking spaceships in battles in front of impressive space stations by a designer called G:r:iff:. Once more he made his way into space, but to his dismay he learned being a prawn he had limited visual skills (graphical cortex uncapable to process visual instructions) to see his environment in all its beauty. So, he stuck to a low profile life and was content with that...

Then a short while back something strange happened to Amah, ships he knew for some time now started almost to look as he saw in the pictures of the species who had more visual capabilities as him. He made contact to the person, who was the inventor of the special ways these ships were made of. Out of kindness Cpt:So:lo: taught him the skills and Amah was able to rebuilt a defunct Wolf Mk.II spaceship as he always imagined it . He rebuilt now a great number of spaceships and called his project "noshaders", deriving from the Zaoncian proverb "there's more than one shade to the ooniverse", which he happened to think it suited well.

The present

Though is no member of a salvage gang, A:ma: roams the eight galaxies to find old abandoned and defunc'd space ships to fix and maintain them and to help his fellow prawns see the ships like almost on the screenshots around the space ports and bulletin boards. He mostly test flies his tinkered ships, but sometimes he's still out doing some trading and brawling with pirates.

On one of his journeys he had a first encounter with new type of ship floating in space all silent and defunc'd. After some work on the internals of the ship getting access to the core datas of the ship, the main computer idenitfyed itself as a Yasen-N class ship, built on Rea in G4 by a small workshop called Radical Logistics. By tracking down the founder in a SPA IN a town on t:ra: and getting in contact on GalNET, the head of RL Mr. Mickey Moriaty told he got involved in other "stuff" and left RL. He offered Amah to look after the RL ship designs and promised to scan the companies database if he can find all about the projects RL was working on...

One might say, he's curently lacking ambition, because he's not really striving to be either Elite or Dangerous but if asked about it, he always mentions ":s: l:ong:s:ers:0:L:inu:x:ve:rsi:on:0th:nx" (which roughly translates to "I know where my place is"
