Greetings pilots of Wing XI! My name is Rear Admiral Locke Setzer, and I have been appointed your new Commodore! I'm quite excited about having given a chance to work with what I consider the best ship in the Battlegroup, and I'm eager to get started in my position and doing everything I can do to make this already fantastic ship even better! Though I have some rather big shoes to step into as a precedence of excellence has already been set by the now-retired Colonel RogueWing, I'll do my best to lead you in the same level of performance as he did :)

A bit of history about myself! I spent a good deal of my career as most do as a FL in Inferno Squadron onboard the ISD Challenge, until moving on to command Tempest Squadron, where I stayed for over a year. I earned every rank from Commander to Colonel in that position, so believe me when I say I'm quite familiar with running a squad and the troubles of CMDRs. After my time in Tempest, I jumped up to become Commodore of the ISD Challenge for a time. Due to r/l problems and other factors I had to leave that position, but returned and spent some time as a FM onboard the ISD Colossus until finally heading back to the ISD Challenge to command Tempest Squadron. In other words, I've been around ;P

There's a lot of things I want to do here, but mostly, more than anything, I want people to know that the Immortal is not a ship that anyone can scoff at. I'm hoping to get some external comps going and crush a few other ships out there. I want to get us to the point where other squadrons, other ships, feel like they need to turn down a challenge to us or one or our squads because they don't feel like losing. My main goal is to bring this ship together into one incredible fighting force driven above all else by strong group participation, and I have a strong belief that with a group as talented as all of you are, there isn't anything out there that's impossible for us.

Since I'm new here, I'm quite eager to get a chance to meet each and every one of you. I can be contacted on AIM easily as "Kevin Setzer", or seen in mIRC(I'll be in #isd_immortal, obviously ;)) as RA_Locke, Locke, or `Locke. Pretty much any type of Locke in a EH channel is me ;) And of course if you're not one for a chat, feel free to email me at kevinsetzer@aol.com. I know some of you may feel the need to "test the waters" with the new COM, so feel free to. I'm always up for a good chat about pretty much anything.

I look forward to having the privilege to command this ship and am anxious to get a chance to get to know each and every one of you. Just don't feel the need to introduce me to yourself by spray-painting your name in my office ;)

In your service,
