CSM 21 Candidate Announcements

0BAKEE

x13

Train Wreck.

I’ve been playing EVE since about 2009, mostly in lowsec, small-gang and solo PvP, piracy, and Faction Warfare. I want to bring a bit of an outsider perspective to the table. My priorities are risk and reward, unstructured PvP, and new-player retention. Players need reasons to undock.

Adhamhnon

Iron Whales

Goonswarm Federation

I've been an EVE Online player since 2004. I've been a mission runner, explorer in all space types, reluctant miner, builder, PvPer, and part of two major alliances. My goals are about building the game up for everyone, from high sec to null, not to tear it down.

Amiomia

The Exotic Dancers

Heirs To The Pleasurehub

I bring fresh eyes to the CSM without being tied to one bloc, playstyle or agenda. I don’t claim to have every answer. I want to listen, find the people who understand each issue best, ask the right questions and make sure different parts of EVE are heard when it matters.

Angela Chent-Shi

Vapor Lock.

Vapor-Lock

I'm Angela, a wormhole FC, Alliance Tournament Captain, and PvP enthusiast. I'm running to bring a unique perspective to your CSM, both as a wormholer and as a woman in the EVE Online community. I want the game itself to encourage players to discover what different areas of space offer.

Ankh Lai

Running with Dogs

Weapons Of Mass Production.

I came to EVE for the stories, nearly bounced off it, and stayed because other players showed me what the game could be. I’ve gone from leading new players in a null bloc to joining a small alliance. I’m still running for the same reason: helping more people stick around.

Arhont Sibirskii

Deadly Dozen Mans

Can i bring my Drake...

I'm CEO of the "Can I bring my Drake..." alliance, a mid-scale and large-scale fleet commander, and an organiser of public events. I've played for over 13 years and been a streamer and game promoter for seven years. I'm active in nullsec and lowsec.

Arrowspeeed Bounty

Elysian Technologies Enclave

Fraternity.

I remain an advocate for EVE as a true sandbox accommodating many ways to play and the great adventure of sorting through it all. I want to help give you those days where you see what seems an unsolvable puzzle and rejoice mightily when you conquer it.

Bluedagger

New Jovian Exploration Department

New Jovian Collective

My name is Bluedagger. I’m the CEO of a low-class wormhole corporation called New Jovian Exploration Department. I’m running for CSM to focus on more meaningful conflict drivers for PvP and breaking up the sameness of PvE content in wormhole space.

Ceema

KarmaFleet

Goonswarm Federation

I'm running for CSM. And no, it's not a bit. I want to represent all of New Eden. Not just Nullsec. Not just the builders, the PvPers, Lowsec, Highsec, or the Wormholers. I'm running to make sure every capsuleer has a seat at this table.

CruelCodex Owasso

Therapy.

Northern Coalition.

I’m running for CSM to represent the players who love EVE’s depth but see where its systems, UI, and everyday gameplay can be better. I bring years of EVE experience, a systems-focused mindset, and a commitment to turning player feedback into practical improvements.

Culaure

FRAC Holding Inc.

Frog Assault Command

As Culaure, I lead Frog Assault Command, the largest Gallente Faction Warfare alliance. I’m active in the warzone daily, organizing campaigns, logistics, new-player training, and frontline operations. I’m running for CSM 21 to give Factional Warfare a practical, experienced, and constructive voice.

DCTDN

Chaos arbiter

Fraternity.

I am one of the CACX instructors at FRT, active in the UTC+8 time zone and quick to respond to players’ needs. Through frequent contact with new players, I understand what they need and want to bring their problems and feedback to the CSM.

Drake Iddon

CastleKickers

Rote Kapelle

I’m a CSM veteran and ongoing Pochven updater with a strong grasp of economics and data analytics. With the Ansiblex changes in full swing, there is a perfect opportunity to introduce new income avenues for new and old players alike, all without wrecking the economy.

Dujek Oneye

Brave Newbies Inc.

Brave Collective

I am active in all areas of space, an avid PVPer and active in the EVE community. On CSM19 I started several long-term projects I would like to continue. If elected, I promise to answer all messages and commit the time and effort needed so that player voices are heard.

DutchGunner

Circle of Abyss

Wicked Angels.

I want to be your representative for better and more balanced events and campaigns, with more lore integration in events, expansions and player actions. I will also work hard to ensure changes or fixes for one part of the game don’t cause issues elsewhere.

Frozen Fallout

Federation Front Line Report

Out of the Blue.

As host of the Federation Front Line Report podcast, I tell the stories of Faction Warfare and lowsec. On CSM 21, I will fight for a better LP store, stronger community-building tools, and more rewarding reasons to undock in lowsec.

HuntBuzz

4S Corporation

The Initiative.

An EVE pilot since 2006, I've mined, explored, fought and led fleets. I'm running for CSM to champion transparency, balance and stability, bringing two decades of experience to help shape a stronger future for EVE and the players who make it thrive.

hyprviper1

KarmaFleet

Goonswarm Federation

My expertise revolves around null sec, diplomacy, spying, building space-castles, and understanding how small alliances work and their struggles to build up an alliance. I hope to continue the momentum from CSM 20 and carry it into CSM 21 to improve the game.

Itaer

Neurotoxin Control

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

I am a current member of CSM 20, representing the small-gang, tournament, and wormhole communities. I have spent my term focusing on meaningful game improvements in quality of life, ship balance, and conflict driving features. For example, the clone bay in Jita was the result of my advocacy.

itsFluffy000

Voidlings

V0IDLINGS

I hunt the chain on d-scan, throw down in WH brawls, and run lowsec blops and cap fights. Lowsec and J-space are a third of everything that dies in EVE on a sliver of the dev attention. Not here to promise miracles, just a vote that actually undocks out here.

Jay Cee Ormand

STeMCO - Small Trade Mining Co.

Cat Scratch Fevers

High-Sec CEO supporting newbros, inexperienced pilots, and independence from Nullsec blocs. My goals are accessible mechanics, better High-Sec resource yields, fleet defense against ganking, and QoL fixes for PI and industry. A pragmatic voice for quality, rewarding play for low-playtime pilots.

Jennifer Corring

Task Force 641

Empyrean Edict

Amarr is my home, but Faction Warfare and lowsec are my community. As the organizer of Militia Monday, I work directly with new and veteran pilots alike. I'm running for CSM to ensure their experiences, concerns, and ideas have a strong voice at the table.

Joilove Sunrunner

The Graduates

The Initiative.

I'm running to bring more JOY and LOVE to our EVE experience. My focus is growing the player base, improving the play/life balance, and making real friendships and lasting connections easier. Let's expand to the next generation, bring back old players and build lasting relationships that span the globe.

Kenneth Feld

Habitual Euthanasia

Pandemic Legion

Long-time player, just looking to make industry better. No more wish lists. I am just going to work on the fringe and get QoL stuff done that has been ignored way too long: industry UI, the 25,000 blueprint limit, the 2,000 job limit for ESI, and ACL folders.

Kshal Aideron

F.U.N. Inc.

The Ancients.

My expertise is in working with new players, developing communities and high sec. During CSM20, I was able to give input into Exordium and Faction Warfare from a new player perspective. I'm here to make sure new players are kept in mind and continue trying to effect change.

Limited Liability

The New Eden School of trade

Organization of Skill Extracting Corporations

I am a bit of an unorthodox candidate, BUT I think I have something different to offer the Council over the standard big bloc representatives. I want to advocate for reaching potential new players through videos that give them a realistic idea of what this game is REALLY about.

Machiavelian

Blackwater USA Inc.

Deepwater Hooligans

I am an experienced CSM member and low sec resident seeking re-election. I want to continue collaborating on improvements to all regions of space, push for frequent balance passes, and give people reasons to go out and blow ships and stations up.

Mercilessguard

Ascendance

Goonswarm Federation

I would like to help shape the future of EVE Online, bringing my experiences as a player. My early experiences of being stalked and destroyed as a new player have always stuck with me. I want an EVE community that stays and continues to grow.

Mike Azariah

The Scope

N/A

Mike Azariah seeks CSM 21, drawing on six prior CSM terms and years of EVE experience. He emphasizes communication, player representation, institutional memory, and helping new players through Operation Magic School Bus. He promises to listen, communicate, and keep working for EVE’s future.

MILINT ARC Trooper

Pator Tech School

N/A

I'm a solo player from Minmatar space, playing since 2020. I enjoy testing and experimenting with content and ships. I want exploration, mining, and hauling to be meaningful experiences for solo and new players and small corps. For targets, of course.

Misty Dawn253

Cozy Mischief

Sedition.

I’m Misty Dawn253, CEO of Cozy Mischief and skirmish FC for Sedition Alliance. A vote for me is a vote for a more active, objective-based insurgency and a more queer-friendly EVE. I want militia and pirate forces to have a reason to actively fight each other.

Nordpol The Extinguisher

Cherry Defence Shipyards

The Initiative.

My passions for things that keep EVE running, like mining, industry or alliance infrastructure, are supported by those that will keep EVE going forever, like sustainable leadership and a sense of belonging for new and old players alike. My CSM term will be shaped by the exchange with other players.

Nova Terra-Ren

Physics Says No

Psyno Theory

Devout wormholer, former nullsec small-alliance leader, and most importantly, storyteller, Nova is the candidate for an EVE where multiboxers and singleboxers can thrive without restricting one another, where small groups feel significant, and where players new or old feel that their stories matter.

Nyx 0

Small Industries Services

The Initiative.

I am Nyx 0, a lover of spreadsheets and a holder of many opinions of varying quality. My experience is with the market and the surrounding economy, with particular interest in addressing the ever-sharpening rate of increase of isk supply as well as continued improvements to the ESI.

Orion Sa-Solo

Minmatar Fleet Academy

Minmatar Fleet Alliance

I want to give back to the game and folks that have helped me. I’m dedicating my time to support players and bring their concerns, ideas, and hopes to FC, pushing for more content and new objectives that keep players engaged across all areas of space.

Pandoralica

DEFCON.

The Initiative.

Pando (zehPando on Twitch), former CSM and a rare bridge between the largest and smallest scales of PVP. Led countless fleets for INIT and lost just as many ships solo or in a small gang. Big issues require a well-balanced perspective and Ansiblexes were just the tip of the iceberg.

Poiuyt20 Fliba

No Vacancies

No Vacancies.

Hello fellow gamers, I am Poiuyt20, a high class wormholer campaigning on a J space focus. I am working to carry forward the momentum from the previous WH CSMs and continue to increase opportunities to put ships in space while maintaining a fair balance between high/low class, and K space.

Rathon Altol

Storm Chasers.

Test Alliance Please Ignore

I have been an EVE player since 2011, focused on industry, logistics, sovereignty, and player organizations. I want to cut pointless busywork, improve corp tools, and make sure changes are judged by their impact across all of New Eden—not just one playstyle.

Reagalan

GoonWaffe

Goonswarm Federation

Veteran Goon, cat herder, and director emeritus. Enjoyer of sandboxes, big boxes, multi-boxes, and checkboxes. Hates arbitrary rules, pointless tedium, echo-chambers, and political chevauchées. Likes blueberries, time dilation, "realism", automation, and the old Moa model.

Sawdeth Ternius

Planetary Response Organisation Holding

N/A

Vanguard-EVE Bridge Specialist, focused on community building and providing tips and tricks to defend your stuff from the ground up. I bring 24 years of FPS gaming experience and want to bridge the connection between the Vanguard and the Capsuleer.

Schadsquatch

Twelve Identical Suspicious Mustaches

The Initiative.

Schadsquatch is running for CSM to drive fast-paced, high-stakes action in EVE Online. Focused on delivering bite-sized, accessible PvP, he aims to restore value to wormhole space, boost low/null capital PvE, cut dreadnought costs, and refine FW dynamics for quick, high-risk/high-reward combat.

Sean Vanstroll

Inevitable Outcome

E.C.H.O

6-year wormhole player seeking to represent J-space in the CSM. I've been in many different corps and alliances in J-space and have a deep sense of what it's like living in wormholes. We stay separated by lack of stargates, but united under Bob.

sennett

Infinite Point

The Initiative.

I’m Sennett, an 18-year EVE veteran and Co-CEO of [3.14-] and [0MD]. I’m passionate about player retention and quality-of-life improvements for every playstyle. I bring hands-on experience across large- and small-scale PvP, logistics, and industry, from both leadership and frontline perspectives.

Seraph Essael

Air

The Initiative.

Eve is not just a game, it's a hobby. I believe in putting the health of the game at the forefront of my campaign. I would like to see some of the utility and tools used by players brought back in to the game. I believe through clear dialogue both FC and the CSM can shape this game to last another 20 years and more.

Shivon

SaltWorks Mining CO

N/A

My entire EVE experience has been in small groups. My focus is small gang, FW, wormholes, tournaments and any and all balance around ships and PvP. I see the role of CSM as a role of service and a chance to give back to this one of a kind game.

SkyMikerJedi

Reeloaded

Reeloaded.

Better alliances. Better tools. More time to die. As an alliance leader, I’ve seen how much time is spent working around limitations with spreadsheets, bots, external tools, and manual processes. I want practical improvements that make corporations and alliances easier to run.

Sopleb

KarmaFleet

Goonswarm Federation

Long time EVE player since 2007, done almost all walks of EVE life. HS hauling and mining, Incursions, Wormholes, Null-sec. Ran Goonswarm Offensive Logistics, hot dropped structures. Currently running GSF's IT Infrastructure, maintaining systems so players can focus on content.

Styxx

Dark Shado

D.A.R.K.

Played EVE actively, with no breaks, since June 2003. My knowledge base is pretty much the entire EVE game. I am running again as I do every year. You know you want to vote me in finally before I die or the game does. We both aren’t getting any younger.

Switch 4

Heretic Army

Sedition.

Low-sec pirate, FW veteran, CEO of Heretic Army, SEDIT alliance exec, and Angel Cartel FC. I’m running to continue the work done for low-sec and FW, represent Pirate FW and small/mid-scale PvP, and keep a strong voice at the table as FC enters its next era of Faction Warfare.

tagknife

Fusion Enterprises Ltd

Test Alliance Please Ignore

Nullsec is MAD: frigates can headshot any staging Keepstar. K-IYNW and Atioth theorised it. 4-HWWF proved it. You cannot kill a tank with 9mm. I am running to end that truce. Keepstars take XL only. Fortizars take L+. Astrahus takes M+. Capitals undock.

Taran Lazarus

Asteroid Farm Unlimited

Goonswarm Federation

I'm Taran Lazarus. I've watched EVE make many changes; I want to help it make some more. Word of mouth is the best form of advertising. More of us playing more of the game means more to talk about and more reasons for others to try it.

Tikka

Absolute Order

Absolute Honor

EVE veteran since launch, focused today on new players and Empire space. I've experienced high-sec mercenary PvP, PvE, mining, exploration and industry. I want to improve retention by closing the knowledge gap and helping new pilots discover EVE's depth without simplifying it.

xXNemXx

Star Frontiers

Brotherhood of Spacers

I’m Nem, leader of BOSS Alliance. I’m running for CSM to represent the players who create their own content, build communities, fight wars, take risks, and make EVE’s sandbox what it is. I want to bring the perspective of active alliance leadership to the CSM.

Zintage Enaka

Echelon Research

Goonswarm Federation

CSM 19 and CSM 20 veteran, GSF director and nullsec FC. Focused on ship balance and general life in nullsec. I’m looking to ease the busy work needed to live in nullsec, reduce barriers to content, and bring diversity and skill back into fleet doctrines.
