| - Purchased and commissioned in 3006 by Murovny Ksechev the owner of the Twin Moons casino, the Working Blue was intended to be a ship bought for spreading out the casino's influence. However, the ship sat on Tomin Kora's landing field for months. When ownership of the casino changed hands temporarily to Dr. Darya Miasnikov, this brought the attention of then acting captain of Hard Eight, one Vadim Tostanavich. Tostanavich and his crew came to an agreement with Darya in July of 3007. To most others, the ship is simply used for smuggling and cargo hauling, but is open to more illicit and illegal activities, should the need arise. But this did not get too far, as complications within the crew itself led to most of them becoming combatants in the gladitorial ring on Tomin Kora. When the Twin Moons was razed to the ground and Darya killed, Vadim reclaimed the Blue for his own with a help of a friend. Considering himself owner and captain of ship, he now seeks for a crew to man her. Since the threat of the Phyrrians, Vadim follows a group of suvivors from numerous planets, including the Star of Mercy, Iuppiter Lucetius, and crew of the Faux to name a few. Not too long after, Vadim took it upon himself to change the name of the ship, re-naming it to IND Resilient, with a week or two later re-locating himself and his ship to the Junkyard. But things change, and Vadim's ownership of the Resilient is not exempt from it. Vadim had previously welcomed the Fauxite's onto the Resilient while their captain had been imprionsed, trying to do whatever he could to help. It wasn't until Ace was freed that the two of them spoke of a potential selling of the Resilient. Vadim hesitantly agreed to this, and moved himself over to the Raider, letting Ace take over command of the Resilient.
