Do you want me to bring back BEVA Incorporated?

[Locke]

A while back I had lead a faction called BEVA Incorporated which had started off a long time ago as an effort to map the zone's areas. The character who lead the faction had funding from an ex-munitions company that was stationed in the USSR but owned mostly by british sources. As the faction progressed I found that maps were not needed very often, so I branched off into the newspaper business. Here is the link to the backstory, which was written a long time ago and has been archived since.

Here is the first and only publication. The whole idea never took off because I became busy with other things in real life and in HGN so I never had a chance to finish.

Anyways, it's a passive RP faction that rarely fights. It has two parts, guards and reporters who work together to gather information.

[Locke]

Oh, and suggest names for the newspaper after you vote.

[Predu]

Well, why not. This could lead to passive RPing about reading this "newspaper" about the zone. The zone needs a journalist who is curious about the happenings inside the zone and eager to learn about the zone. And to post his view of the zone.

I have no good suggestions for a name but well.. I came up with "The Zone Within".

[Ravanger]

Indeed^...Includeing jobs oppurtunites and other things.

[lolKieck]

Predu came up with good name and he pointed out something I wanted to say.

[Pawx]

I don't know how a Newspaper would survive in the Zone, unless it was realsed through PDA's. But still a good idea, just canon would be slightly hurt, but who gives a crap.

[Dug]

I loved these, even tho it was only one report. Bring them back :D

[deluxulous]

I always heard about BEVA and saw this, but I was disappointed it never took off.

Also, if I recall correctly, BEVA only reported things that "sounded good" or bended the truth to make stuff sound not so bad. Maybe a rival newspaper company funded by a few private investors inside the zone could make a "true" newspaper reporting everything that actually happened?

[Locke]

We try to lighten up day-to-day life in the zone, so yeah, we try to make things sound lighter than they actually are. Makes it easier to live in a radiated shithole >.>

[Khorn]

How about "The Anomaly"?

"The Heart of the Zone"?Artifact on the cover?

"The Compass"? Artifact on the cover?



Or "Artifact Weekly"?

[Monkeyfisker]

BEVA, "Beaver Report." c:

In any case, this seems cool, seems fun.

"The Stalkers Report"
"The Zone Gazette"
"The Stalkers Gazette"

[Locke]

Hm, I like the anomaly theme khorn threw in, suggest some names with that theme c:

[Khorn]

Stone Blood Digest?

Mama's Bead News?
:P

[Silence)]

I can see it now the PDA being updated to include weekly reports of this wouldn't be a bad idea.   

[meetdadoom]

Yeah do it, it can add a cool element to the Zone
