The Frozen Family History

Before Ing.Zmrzlik's family moved to Liberty, their clan had lived in Bretonia for several generations.
Zmrzlik's wife died after a strong allergic reaction to several toxins in the atmosphere
of Planet Leeds, due to the poor level of local medical attention. She was there on duty, performing some
research for the new Cryer department that was opened in Cambridge, where they actually got married about twenty years ago.

Because of this, Zmrzlik has abandoned his position in BMM's engineering department and decided to move to a place where public health has higher priority
than just mining, trade and profits... where he thought the corporation wouuldn't be as reckless as in Bretonia.
Because you can't buy another life for any amount of credits. Time has proved him wrong again, though. Liberty does
care about its middle class, but the corporate villains are'nt any better. Now he has a chance to compare it with
Nomad infestation, and he agrees with his step-brother Looter and many other Lane Hackers on this:
Those plagues are equal, one worse than the other.

Biography of Lane Hacker Looter


Looter is often referred to as 'Uncle Looter' or 'Lootey' by Fridge (Refrigerator) and Frosty.
He was born on Planet Cambridge, the most beautiful place of them all, land with green hills, beautiful
sunrises and sunsets. He has also grown up there and eventually attended the well known university
on the planet. Several of his schoolmates have joined the ranks of Gaians, therefore he has a bit
of sympathy for them. However the fact that they've been corrupted by the ruthless Corsairs is making
him upset. Ah, I almost forgot to mention the field of Looter's studies. He doesn't have such an expert
knowledge of high technologies and hacking into protected computer systems, or even gate/lane building...
The reason why the Lane Hacker group in Magellan accepted him were his tactical skills, the ability to
foresee enemy movements and last but not least, he's indeed a decent pilot as well. There might be better ones
in statistics, but it's the way he uses environment and circumstances to his own advantage, that makes him who
he is.

Back to the history: to work for Ageira after settling in Liberty was simply the most profitable
and interesting thing to do - which made it the right thing to do, according to Looter's independent hedonistic
philosophy. At least that's what he and Zmrzlik thought that time. The policy of Ageira Technologies showed them.
There's really no need to explain this in here, as you can read about those crimes and corruption in other employee
reports of those who became Lane Hackers as well. Not sharing Zmrzlik's pain and sadness completely, Looter liked
to visit Cambridge occasionally, to enjoy the sights... that's why he persuaded Zmrzlik that they should move to
Planet Los Angeles, closer to Cambridge and far enough from the fussy Manhattan. And so they later joined the California
scanner group, that fled to Magellan ... and Zmrzlik's kids came after them few years later, because their dad
wanted them to finish their education first, so that they can save innocent lives, in memory to their lost mother, who
was passed away thanks to the ignorance of the abovementioned 'lawful' criminals.

One day, he would like to return to his home world, where he began his first journey into space. That will take a long time,
though. Thank's to the well-known enhancer Cardamine, he has countless years before him and retirement is still far away.

Behavior:
When the time comes, he usually just evaluates the situation, and acts. Looter doesn't care much about what others think.
This may be both an advantage and a weakness, as he would say, having close to philosophic debates every evening that
he can spend in the Mactan's Bar. With all the folks there being technicians, not many have the time and mood for some
philosophy, poetry, or real wisdom. Blessed be their cleverness and clear minds, nevertheless.

Special thanks to: the Outcasts for their revolutionary enhancer. Cheers!

Biography - LH.Refrigerator

How did this Lane Hacker smuggler earn his name, and why does his ship resemble an old rusty appliance as well?
TRhat's what many of you probably wondered about, especially the LSF, when they were unable to catch it.
It's very depressive, when you can't stop a ship which you think is an ultimate pile of junk.
The question should be more like: why did his ship get her nickname, from which his official hacker callsign
is derived, in the first place...
...it's quite simple. He was just excited when he first saw the crystal bright look of the ice crystals in the
Barrier cloud in Magellan, as he came there. Many other pilots share this feeling as you can see for yourself
if you look at them, randomly shooting small ice asteroids and enjoying the glittering effects ... it almost turns
them into water miner. Want to see this? No problem. Want to live on so that you can tell stories about it? That's
a different issue ... some traders are finally beginning to acknowledge that trespassing into the Barrier, or even
getting close to Magellan can have permanent effects. So, check your reputation and announce your arrival first, please.
If you want to enjoy the show and not become a part of it, that is... cleaning the ice fields from your ships debris isn't
very pleasant and the Junkers really rarely get there. Luckily, we have discovered the automatic junk'n'debris universal
molecular anihilator, also known as 'The Disgronifier'. So that's it ... the others have found it funny that Fridge
always loves to take a few blocks of ice aboard ... mixed with luxury food, he can prepare delicious and unforgettable
icecream with the most popular Cardamine flavour, of course. So that's it, he's cool when smuggling, and even the stolen
cargo is kept cool ... that's the only way to preserve stolen steaks on the way to Leiden, through irradiating clouds.

Some inexperienced pilots in the border worlds, and even the pirated traders smile at her, asking:
"Why do you fly a transport, when you're a pirate? Why are you pirating with a transport?"
Those poor pilots either miss their glasses, or didn't pay attention at school. If you ever get to scan her,
read carefully: "P-I-R-A-T-E Transport". See? There is another possibility - maybe it's not the pilots'
fault - they are just unlucky, because their ships' systems are cracked long before they got into scanner range.
And yeah, they often even hear the "Dear Sir or Madame, you have been Hacked ..." echoing in their comm arrays.
That is one of Fridge's characteristics and intellectual qualities that he shares with majority of his Lane Hacker
colleagues. He's polite, whenever possible and differs from Looter in this.

You're free to laugh and underestimate the apparent hunk of junk ... but count on that your cargo will undergo a defrost
cycle at one of the pirate bases. None of the above, you say? Riight... if you want to commit a suicide and let yoour ship
be torn apart, it's your choice. Fridge cares, but not that much.

Biography - LH~Frosty

Age: 23
Education: masters degree, Planet L.A. Institute of Technology

He was looking forward to joining the Hacker Side during his final year in the college. Actually, he couldn't stand to wait. Frosty is a younger brother of Fridge, also known as The.Refrigerator. Fridge was introduced to the Hackers several years earlier by their father, retired Hacker and a real Ageira ex-employee, Ing. Zmrzlik, who made the family's first contact with the California scanner group in Magellan. Their father isn't just a smart, hard working man, he also possesses wisdom, that both his sons are willing to gain during their years as well, being sometimes guided with dad's advices and stories from the old days.

Before he left Liberty and his lawfulness behid, he took a thorough scan of the Detroit Munitions weapons manufactoring facility, to prove that he is worthy. After bidding farewell, he spammed all IC and Ageira's head departments' mailboxes with the scans and plans of detroit, along with the brand new shiny Dagger parked next to it.

Rumors say, that the Ageira's CEO, after seeing the insane smile of the Dagger's pilot, waited for three days with the official statement for the press. He was so humiliated with this information leak.

Threat assessment: Subject is just a little nuisance, the bounty on him is not rising very fast due to his recent activities being unknown.
