They were a Good Lucker, and managed for quite some time to avoid the CRC, the Alliance, and other attempts to find them. They had no intention of joining Pax Humanis. However, like Pax Humanis, using poison, blades, and other methods, avoiding causing any harm to innocents, they worked their way through the universe killing the greedy, the brutal, and the cruel. -- Anon Guest
[AN: Being a Lucker has nothing to do with being a psychopath. However, it could lead to the belief that the Powers That Be are on your side.]
Welcome to the Edge Territories. Things are dangerous here. Hello, I'm 'things'. Oh don't give me that look, you're fine. I have a select group of targets for the greater good, and you are not one of them. I would like to know a few things about where you're from. It's one of those Fiscal Supremacies, isn't it? What the Alliance calls Deregger space?
You have the look. That's how I know. Deregger escapees have this hunted and haunted look. Tell me about your boss. This is a safe space. I promise.
Hm. Yes. I see the problem. I will take you to somewhere that will take you in. You have nothing to worry about. They will give you a new name, and a home, and help you conquer your troubles at a speed you can deal with. You will be safe from them. Oh. My plans? My plans may give you nightmares.
Oh very well. I've been doing this for some time. If there's gods in this universe, I do believe they endorse my actions. I've yet to be caught, you see. I always manage to escape the reaching arms of Pax Humanis, the Cogniscent Rights Committee, and any law enforcement that happens to come my way.
I've been killing people for a very long time. The same sort of people. Might makes right, strong hand, iron fist... you know the type. Too well, it seems.
They say you remember your first, but it's been very long. I just remember the blood, and wondering how I could clean up the mess. I despise mess. Perhaps that's why they never caught me. I try to remain very clean.
My murder kit includes a sterilised livesuit, portable cleansing booth, and quite a lot forensic cleaning materials. As well as the usual array of implements. Rope, knives, poisons. There's so many ways to end a life.
I'm collecting them.
Some, I make look like an accident. Some, I leave in scandalous and compromising situations. Some, I have vivisected. I made one of them look at his own heart. That was fun. Well. Fun for me.
One of the reasons killers like me get caught is that they leave traces. Another is that they leave patterns. So I try not to leave a trace. Anything that would leave a trace anyway is either left at the scene or so generic they couldn't track it down at all.
I'm good at this.
No, I'm not part of Pax Humanis. Don't be silly. I hate the idea of a gilded cage. I want to find people who deserve me, all my own.
Trust me. I will deal with your boss. And perhaps the next boss just like him.
Dereggers always take such a long time to learn things, don't they?
