While going through some files on my laptop, I found a copy of the old terminus seat-info pages. Since this was probably the best time I had in EVE and I want to keep the memories, I decided to publish the chronicles of the Terminus. corporation.
The Beginning
Jabber & Highsec
Because it was before my time, I can only say that *magically*, a few guys got together as a group. I think they did faction warfare(still with the old mechanics), but it doesn't really matter that much. What matters more is that one day, they decided to create JabberWock Mining and Industry, a small mining and industry corporation in Northern Placid around Osmeden and Adacyne.
This was also the time I joined. JabberWock was my first corporation.
While I wouldn't join a highsec mining corporation anymore, it was a fun time we spent with orca racing and rock crunching.
A bit later, Lucius, until now just a line member, was promoted to leadership, but actually wanted to have his own corp AND stay in Jabber. This lead to the creation of the alliance The Faceless. and it's first members, JabberWock Mining and Industry and Legion of Terra, Lucius's corp.
Some time later, our beloved raitaru FunkyTown and our pocos got wardecced, we had to defend them. This is where everything started. While we were successful with defending FunkyTown and many many newbies like me saw their first blood, it showed that the corp had almost no income streams and PVP experience. That had to change, and the wormhole project was born.
The Wormhole
We did move in a C2 wormhole, built a few capitals (yes, after the patch, and all components hauled in with DST, not fun!) and set up a ton of Athanors to mine. We had fun (most expensive fax loss in the game), but problems with recruiting enough members, so we were unable to respond when threatened to be evicted. Realizing we had no chance, we evacuated and sold the structures and capitals.
Terminus
All that time in the wormhole, we still were part of The Faceless. Socially, we were two groups tho, the wormholers and the highsec miners. This is why we (the wormholers) decided to split of into a new corp, and Terminus was born. The whole wormhole project and the evacuation did cost a lot for everyone, and we wanted a place to rebuild, hence we decide to rent a system. Because the Beeitnam War was ending around the same time, we saw that renting from Legacy Coalition was no good idea, Goons didn't have any space and Horde wasn't an option for other reasons, in the end, only Fraternity was really an option. And that's how we moved into Branch.
While the PVE content was good, in terms of PVP, Branch had nothing to offer, so we moved into facwar while keeping a foot in null.
Faction Warfare
Our first staging area was in Slays in Southern Placid where we terrorized the area of Iges, Uphallant, Covryn, Dastryns and sometimes even Ostingele. It was also the time we started to make friends with Cynosural Field Theory.
When content started to drown in Southern Placid, we moved up to Northern Placid and the Maut pipe to fight the newly formed United Caldari Navy caldari faction warfare alliance from Nayrok the freighter feeder. This provided some content for a while.
I don't know when exactly, but around that time, we also abandoned nullsec. We didn't use it nearly enough and our landlords demanded more rent, while doing nothing against BOSS roaming from Venal. In hindsight, it was probably due to their terrible organization: They didn't notice we left until three months later because the bills haven't been paid. Additionally, they never kicked us from their discord, but messed up the permissions to that I could impersonate Noraus, the Fraternity leader and ping @everyone in #announcements. I can't find screenshots of it anymore though. Fun times.
During summer 2022 we also made a deployment into syndicate, but I was on holidays.
In autumn, things started to happen: We were again down in the Slays area and wanted to kill a enemy Astrahus with a coalition of galmil corporation. Uniting galmil was difficult and our agreement to work together fragile. Anyways, we were successful and killed the astra, but our ally JREX FC youngpuke wasn't happy at all because "we were not supposed to win and only there for the content", "we batphoned and lost our honor" etc. We were allies up to now despite a complicated history, but that day we and our friend the potato alliance decided to just leave galmil. We had enough.
And this is how Terminus started to collapse: By winning an astrahus timer.
Pandemic Horde
Since everyone was kind of exhausted at this point, we decided to take a break and join Pandemic Horde. However, just as we joined, the first Fire Coalition war broke out and we were just burning structures uncontested for weeks. Our activity declined and many took a break. The few people that remained active generally joined another corp in Horde or elsewhere.
Drill-And-Kill
We're so back! Join the corp with the most glorious name ever, Drill-And-Kill. Terminus. is now our structure holding corp.
