Guided xenozoology excursion.

Greetings, sector.

Many of you seem to ask themselves how one would go about obtaining XENOZOO SCANs of aggressive specimens. There are several answers to that question, but the easiest is to bring someone to distract the creature while you scan it. This approach, however, is often thwarted by the lacking availability of such a companion to act as your meat shield. In order to rectify that, the Dominion plans an excursion to various untamed places of the sector, where our veterans will provide protection to budding xenozoologists to scan in (relative) safety. This excursion will happen around Nulday in the 2nd week of Abyss, 975 A.E. (//Wednesday, 31st of July, Sync-4). We will gather at Danica and proceed through the sector from there on.

Since in order to cover as much ground as possible, we will need to traverse the territory of all factions, so participants are well advised to resolve any enemy status they may have on their own in advance. You will be expected to follow orders from our veterans. Also, as is the nature of, well, nature, there is a certain amount of residual risk involved in such an endeavour. While we try to prevent any injuries, allow for healing breaks and revive anyone gathering first-hand experience with the unique hunting techniques of the sector's apex predators to the best of our abilities, we will not cover any cloning fees, nor be responsible for the loss of anyone without an INR. While we hope to provide a veteran for every participant, experienced spacers willing to pull guard duty from all over the sector are invited to join as well - in this case, safety truly does lie in numbers. I look forward to seeing as many xenozoologists as possible!

In service,

Picram
Lord Commander
