Gnosis Capsuleer Day XVI SKIN
Capsuleers were given independent licenses 16 years ago and the YC121 celebrations mark this latest anniversary of the dawn of the Capsuleer Age and the opening up of New Eden's frontiers by immortal space pilots. Capsuleer Day XVI is a moment of celebration for "The Elite" pilots who are all capsuleers across New Eden.
Gnosis Capsuleer Elite XV SKIN
The Capsuleers are considered an elite group across New Eden and this gilded nanocoating marks that status on Capsuleer Day XV. The YC120 celebrations are the 15th anniversary of the dawn of the Capsuleer Age and the opening up of New Eden's frontiers by immortal clone space pilots. Capsuleer Day XV is a moment for celebration of "The Elite" across New Eden.
Gnosis Capsuleer Networker XV SKIN
Display your attendance at the SoCT's annual capsuleer gathering with this celebratory nanocoating. In the 15th anniversary year of the dawn of the Capsuleer Age, the SoCT chose to host the gathering at its new diplomatic facility, across the bay from Concord City, on the surface of Yulai III. The Society of Conscious Thought encourages graduates of its elite education programs to network with one another and has established many cohorts of former students throughout New Eden. As the SoCT takes a somewhat tutelary view of capsuleers as a class, the Society also encourages movers and shakers among the capsuleers to network with one another for the advancement of humanity in New Eden.
Gnosis GalNet StreamCast Unit SKIN
The GalNet StreamCast Unit is a special program of the GalNet Association, the grouping of interstellar organizations, corporations and empire representatives that oversees the standards and protocols of the interstellar GalNet. GalNet StreamCast Unit operates ships or sponsors independent pilots to provide public access audio-visual and holographic data for use in GalNet programming. GalNet StreamCast Unit channels also host a variety of independent program-makers and work to give access and support to those citizens of New Eden wishing to broadcast using the streaming protocols of the interstellar GalNet.
Gnosis Genolution Dazzle SKIN
In the early era of spaceship combat, various forms of optical camouflage and confusion were experimented with in order to gain even the slightest tactical edge. It was rapidly concluded that such gambits made little to no difference, particularly with the sophistication and number of electromagnetic and gravimetric sensors involved. Despite the improbability of any significant effect, Genolution's capsuleer performance researchers are investigating the psychological factors that may come into play with the use of such a "dazzle" camouflage scheme. The patterns they are researching are supposedly even older than the early days of spaceships, with a lineage stretching back to ancient naval warship combat. It is not clear the scheme was particularly effective even in those days.
Gnosis Glacial Drift SKIN
Gnosis Icecloud Investigators SKIN
The Society of Conscious Thought was among several groups that took a keen interest in the discovery of trace amounts of chromodynamic tricarboxyls in ice and vapor clouds associated with the formation of the so-called "ice dwarf" planets in certain star systems. The SoCT's investigators were apparently keen to understand the processes by which the valuable material could be extracted and refined in useful quantities from the wisps of icy vapor cloaking the icy dwarf planets. As with much SoCT technology and associated equipment, the icecloud nanocoating was released into the hands of capsuleers, perhaps if only to see what they would do with it.
Gnosis Ironblood SKIN
Gnosis Midnight SKIN
Gnosis Silver Racer SKIN
Gnosis Tercio Rojo SKIN
This special issue nanocoating commemorates a famed kitz of the Society of Conscious Thought known for producing daring explorers and formidable warriors. As is often the way of the SoCT kitzes, the ancient Tercio Rojo kitz evolved in directions away from warfare and exploration, eventually shifting to a new name along with its new focus on other areas of education and training. The traditions of the kitz live on in various splinter kitzes and those few older institutions that took in Tercio Rojo explorers and philosopher warriors wishing to continue along their chosen path.

Gnosis Zakura Shumyu SKIN
The concept of 'Zakura Shumyu' encapsulates an idealized existential humility of the citizenry of the Caldari State in the presence of something greater, symbolized by the wind passing through Zakura cherry blossoms. Zakura Hansei refers to the large family of ornamental cherry trees that feature heavily in Caldari State parks and executive aboriculture. The Zakura cherry trees and their blossoms have become a part of Caldari symbolism dating back to the formation of the first corporations on Caldari Prime. Cherry trees are found on the home worlds of the four major empires where growing conditions and land permits. Popular as an ornamental tree for the mass flowering of cherry blossoms that break out as warm seasons begin, there are many varieties found across New Eden. Cherry trees of the Zakura Hansei family became popular with the Caldari, particularly as the hardier varieties were able to fluorish in the more temperate regions of the notoriously cold Caldari Prime. In the Caldari State, the large and splendid Zakura Bazei variety is often a feature of corporate parks and executive class gardens. The Caldari gave the name 'Zakura' to these blossoming trees and these varieties are known by that name as far afield as the ornamental arboretums of the Amarr Empire. In a historical irony, this family of cherry trees is actually native to Gallente Prime, and the cherry was not known on Caldari Prime until it was introduced some time after first contact with the Gallente.
