The Arebasu is a type of troll found in the online MMORPG EVE Online. Often found roaming the expanses of Lonetrek or The Citadel, the Arebasu is notorious for its behaviour. Often described as a black hole for ISK, or simply just a troll, the obnoxious Arebasu often lurks in wait until just the right time when he can inflict an optimal amount of annoyance on his victim.

The Arebasu enjoys all aspects of being an internet troll. He is found patrolling the high seas for defenseless merchant ships. Rather than sink them, however, the Arebasu simply damages them beyond repair, leaving them a long and hard voyage back to port. The Arebasu also preys in the skies above the Earth, flying fighter jets until they run out of fuel, only to eject and crash the plane.

Tools of the Trade
The Arebasu employs a wide variety of items to carry out his work. Use of speed fitted frigates to ram ships aligning for warp, or the use of warp scramblers to stall ships, especially haulers, while they are trying to warp. A menace even in the highest security of systems, there is nothing that can be done about his actions.

Another strategy the Arebasu employs is to drain the corporate wallet of any ISK it might be trying to save. He employs a myriad of strategies to achieve this goal. Often it invovles purchasing Meta level 4 named items, expensive faction ships, and tech 2 items.

In Popular Culture

 * In the fairy tale The Little Red Riding Hood, the wolf is often thought to symbolise the Arebasu's actions. Appearing to be a corporate member in good standings, his sinister agenda is usually discovered when it is too late.
