== General information ==
Ghost Festival or [PRETA] is a dedicated role playing corporation for characters in service to the Angel Cartel. It is an organization of ruthlessness and brutality engaged in everything from drug manufacturing, slavery, prostitution, extortion, and space-lane piracy. What sets the Cartel apart from other outlaw organizations is that it possesses the broadest ethnic diversity since their influence is cluster-wide. Possessing technology rumored to have been salvaged from the remnants of the Jovian empire, the Cartel is the largest and most powerful criminal syndicate in the known galaxy.

The Cartel recognizes Naraka as a loyalist capsuleer alliance, and Ghost Festival's CEO is in close contact with the Dominations to achieve the ultimate goals they both share: Destroying the Sansha's Nation and bolstering the influence of the Cartel through an overt, paramilitary capsuleer presence. Naraka as a whole hopes to be fully embraced by their sponsors and become the first capsuleer-only division of the Cartel.

Ghost Festival concentrates on the martial side of capsuleer life and believes in using the right tools for the job. Ghosts put heavy emphasis on teamwork, minimizing risk, and maximizing profit. While they used to be focused exclusively on cruiser hulls and smaller, PRETA has recognized the need for flexibility and most pilots can fly everything from frigates to battleships.

Ghost Festival's approach to the game is one of focused role play. To us, EVE is a story in which each and every one of us play our own main characters, and it is those characters that make the story. Corp chat is in-character; there is an OOC channel, "Naraka OOC," for non-game related chatter. Alliance chat is out of character as well, providing a secure communication framework. It's conventional wisdom that this move is doomed -- that role play corporations which switch corporate chat to in-character will experience only silence there. But we've already pierced this veil, and expect the talk to only expand from there.

As representatives of the criminal element, it's our responsibility to play that element well -- and consequently, we aim to continue the tradition of demonstrating that role players very much do not suck at PvP.
