Former Galactic Alliance Officer | Pirate Prophet of the Outer Reaches | Heinsnake Cultist
---
OVERVIEW
Vilmorin Kael Threx is a former Galactic Alliance naval officer turned pirate prophet, a man whose reputation rests uneasily between genius, madness, and something far more unsettling. Once celebrated for his uncanny strategic foresight, Vilmorin now commands a roaming pirate fleet through sermons, fractured visions, and cryptic proclamations that somehow continue to come true.Before every engagement, he speaks of currents, signs, and inevitable moments. He predicts ambushes that never occur, hyperspace routes that prove miraculously clear, and enemy collapses that seem preordained. Whether these insights stem from latent Force sensitivity, extraordinary intuition, or delusional pattern-making is unknown.
What is undeniable is results.
To his followers, Vilmorin is chosen an instrument of destiny steering them through the chaos of a dying galaxy. To his enemies, he is a dangerous madman whose luck must eventually fail.
HISTORY
Vilmorin's early career in the Galactic Alliance Navy was exemplary. Rising rapidly through the ranks, he gained a reputation for unconventional battle plans that consistently succeeded against superior numbers. His superiors praised his instincts while quietly noting his increasing reliance on "premonitions" rather than conventional intelligence.His downfall came during a classified deep-space operation involving a disputed hyperspace corridor. Against orders, Vilmorin altered the fleet's approach based on what he later described as a warning he could feel but not articulate. The engagement was a catastrophe. The Alliance lost ships, personnel, and officially Vilmorin himself.
In truth, his vessel survived, drifting for weeks beyond established hyperspace lanes. When Vilmorin re-emerged years later, he had abandoned Alliance doctrine entirely. He gathered deserters, outlaws, and wreckage survivors, preaching that the galaxy itself was fractured and that only those who could see its flow would endure.
Thus the Geomancy Storm was born
APPEARANCE
Vilmorin appears older than his years, his body lean to the point of gauntness. Deep lines score his face, etched by sleeplessness rather than time. His skin bears faint, irregular markings inked sigils, ritual dots, and pale scars placed with deliberate symmetry across his brow, temples, and hands.His hair is long, darkened with iron-gray, worn loose and unkempt, framing a face perpetually caught between focus and distraction. His beard is similarly streaked, trimmed only enough to suggest function over care.
His eyes are the most unsettling feature: heavy-lidded, rimmed with exhaustion, yet piercing when engaged. When unfocused, his gaze drifts as though tracking something just out of phase with reality. When clarity strikes, it is sudden and absolute, an unnerving stillness that precedes command or catastrophe.
