Sllice

Before TNF

There is not much before TNF, and that is the point. Sllice’s character was born on 24 March 2025 into the Republic Military School, the Minmatar starter corp. Less than three weeks later he was in The New Federation, and he has not been anywhere else since.

Joining TNF

He first flew with TNF in April 2025. In July Odysemus checked in on a batch of pilots, Sllice among them, to ask what was getting in their way (Day One in Null).

Sllice also brings people with him. In June 2025 a returning New Eden veteran joined TNF at his request, which is why Faces of TNF: Kittens, Kings and Icelandic Meistarar lists him as recruiter, ratter and king of the monthly chart. That covers most of it.

On 13 April 2026, a year after his arrival, he marked it in corp chat: “todays the one year boys ❤️”

New king of Catch

On the evening of 11 September 2025 Sllice was crowned “new king of Catch” by a corpmate after topping the monthly kill chart. The acceptance speech was gracious and a little cheeky: thanks to “all the ahem top pilots this month,” and “special thanks to emperor taking a break so I can catch up,” aimed at Emperor Caligula. Emperor’s reply: “all hail Sllice”. Anhenka then delivered an acceptance speech of his own for good measure (Shadow Talon After-Action).

In the fleet

His commentary style is economical. In the early hours of 6 November 2025 he posted one particularly satisfying kill with the full extent of his analysis: “oh my.” Pict1on replied “Nice 1 dude,” which in PvP-channel dialect is roughly a standing ovation (Scorched Earth in the Drone Regions). The same day he was on a Keepstar, about 193 billion ISK, alongside Atreus Minmatarius, Emperor Caligula, Motty 007, Phoebe Prime, xXchochiXx and others.

Then came 13 December 2025, the biggest day on his record. He was on a Hel supercarrier, about 69 billion ISK, with Atreus Minmatarius, Cirrus Constitution, Killjoy Ender, SadisticSloth and Tamanade. Alongside PalmarSiamang53 he was on a string of Rorquals that day: one at about 9.7 billion ISK, another at 8.8 billion, a third at 8.4 billion, plus a fourth and a fifth. The same day’s mails include carriers and dreadnoughts too: a Thanatos, two Nidhoggurs (one, two), a Phoenix and a Revelation. The whole run is listed in Kills of the quarter: October to December 2025.

By the numbers

• 1,748 kills on the TNF record, past the 100, 500 and 1,000 kill marks
• On kills worth more than 2.1 trillion ISK combined
• 39 solo kills

The detailed record since October 2025 is heavy on big targets. Battleships lead with 49, and the Raven Navy Issue is the hull he meets most (20), followed by 17 Praxis and 9 Barghests. Further down sit 8 carriers, 6 capital industrial ships (all of them Rorquals), 5 Nidhoggurs and 4 dreadnoughts. Logistics ships account for 9 more.

Where he shines

Sllice reads and thanks. When a group of members pooled their knowledge into a shared ratting guide in July 2025, he summed up the mood: “awesome thank you for putting this together everyone” (Crabbing in Catch). A new discovery about probing got “I was today years old.”

He has also been asking one question since June 2025: “when are we getting a corp skin 😄” (Paint Jobs and Pride). And when the Fanfest photos came in, he had a reply for everyone: “Looks awesome boyos. And girlyos.”
