Arsia Elkin is a Captain in Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris. She spends most of her time in the Amarr-Minmatar warzone, fighting against the Minmatar and local pirates. She is accomplished both as a solo pilot as well as a fleet commander. She is particularly well known for flying the Crucifier Navy Issue. She is a short-tempered, conservative Sarumite who supports The Reclaiming by any means necessary. She was a retainer who flew under Admiral Mitara Newelle on the Sarum team in the YC118 Amarr Championships.

Early Life

Arsia was born on YC85.02.11 to Satasia and Ezekiel Elkin in Dam-Torsad, Amarr Prime. She spent most of her life on her Family's estate outside the city. She has one younger sister, Virtella Elkin, who is also a capsuleer, and one older brother, Xavier Elkin, who is not. She was home schooled and rarely left home save for an incident where she was abducted and ransomed for money at the age of 11. Her Gallente kidnappers were caught and executed. Later on she attended the Royal Amarr Institute studying Astrometrics, where she ultimately became a capsuleer.

Life as a Capsuleer

Arsia was issued her capsuleer licence on YC112.06.18 and flew under the banner of the Royal Amarr Institute for quite some time before moving on. She founded the Sha'ha'dem just over two years after obtaining her license. Her reason for forming an ostensibly exploration oriented group was to bring her God's message to every planet of every star as the Amarr Scriptures say; she wanted to make sure she would be able to find them all. As the head of the Sha'ha'dem she lived out in low security Kador space, day tripping into wormholes and killing the local baseliner pirates until she changed her focus over to the Amarr-Minmatar warzone. It was while flying in the warzone alongside Aldrith Shutaq, that she was brought into PIE. After joining PIE she became a mainstay in the warzone.

Politics

Arsia supports The Reclaiming by any means and supports military action to do so if need be. She believes the Caldari to generally be more reasonable than the Matari, who she believes to be ignorant and belligerent, and the Gallente, who she believes to generally be hedonistic and oftentimes straight-up evil. She does earnestly want to "better" those from the other races via the Reclaiming and therefore does view non-Amarrians who are of the Amarrian faith as friends and allies, although subtle racism can show in extended conversation. Her general acceptance of all those of the Faith is shown in that she left her old corporation, Sha'ha'dem Explorers, in the hands of her friend Lyra North-Onren, an Ammatar woman. She is against the use of boosters and frowns upon what she views as excessive modification; at most, she'll run very basic capsuleer implants. She was a strong supporter of Empress Jamyl I and accepts Empress Catiz I. Although she's not going to be to keen to say it, she dislikes the Khanid Kingdom and especially hates its rulers. She does however fly Khanid designed ships where she does not fly other non-Amarrian ships.
