1.1 What is EVE Online?
EVE is a massive multiplayer online game (MMOG) set in a
science-fiction based, persistent world. Players take the role of
spaceship pilots
seeking fame, fortune, and adventure in a huge,
complex, exciting, and sometimes
hostile galaxy.
1.5 How is my persona represented in the
game?
Players are represented in the game by avatars, both as ships and
with a customized portrait created by the player. It is not possible to exit your ship
and explore planets or space stations. Each EVE Online
account contains three character slots, giving users ample
opportunity to try out different skills, races and appearances.
1.10 What is basic game play
like?
The diversity and flexibility of EVE makes it difficult to
categorize it by conventional standards. What it is depends on the
level at which it is played.
The game is set in an unknown portion of space, spanning thousands
of solar systems, many of which are settled. Players begin by
creating an in-game character equipped with a basic spaceship ready
to explore the world.
As they get acquainted with life in EVE, players can
trade goods between systems or conduct other
money-making ventures such as mining asteroids,
transporting goods as a courier or even cleaning
up debris for recycling.
Financial gains made through such activities can be used to
upgrade the ship with weapons and equipment and also to develop the
character by purchasing skill packs used for training him or her in
various skills he will need to advance in the world of EVE.
When a player has mastered the basics of the game, aquired some
money and equipment and advanced his or her character through basic
skills, the possibilities become almost endless.
Players who wish to explore peaceful paths may continue to
upgrade their ships to bigger and better cargo vessels with
high-end defenses, purchase advanced mining or research equipment
and continue to develop their characters by specializing in their
preferred skills. Others may elect to pursue a more dangerous path
such as piracy, smuggling or
bounty hunting.

In-game, my character home base is in Caldari region, Oimmo
