Roger Rabbitson

Roger was always a bit different.

While other kids in their capsules dreamt of glory and honor in combat during the AIR Program, Roger preferred to tinker in his self-built mini-laboratory, cultivating… carrots.
Yes, carrots!
Gigantic, glowing orange specimens that would astound even the toughest space veterans. He'd even developed a secret growing method he called the "Omega-Orange Formula."

One ill-fated day, as Roger was just naming his newest super-carrot strain, his home planet was overrun by a horde of rampaging Gurista Pirates.
But Roger wasn't one to cower.
With a grin wider than the propulsion of his old Caracal, he loaded his entire carrot harvest into the cargo bay.


In the thick of the fight, when his light missiles ran out and the situation seemed hopeless, Roger had a brilliant, if crazy, idea. He modified his ship's launchers and loaded… his enormous carrots into them.
With a loud whoosh, the "vitamin bombs" fired at the pirates.
The Guristas, expecting a hail of kinetic missiles, were completely perplexed when bright orange projectiles struck instead, bringing their shields down with a dull thump.

The story goes that after being bombarded with Roger's carrots, the Guristas suffered no serious damage, but they actually celebrated him for his "innovative" contribution to the fight.
Roger, on the other hand, used the ensuing chaos to make off with a portion of the Gurista's loot.

Now he roams the vast expanses of New Eden, always on the lookout for new adventures and, of course, the perfect soil for his next carrot harvest.

Rumor has it that Roger is probably not the most feared fighter in all of New Eden, but at least he's the one with the healthiest complexion, thanks to that extra dose of Vitamin A.


It wasn't long before he heard about a small corporation called the "Carrot Cartel."
They were a sort of Gurista splinter group that combined their raids with a bizarre focus on agricultural products—specifically, you guessed it, carrots.
