Vellichor Vorpal

Vellichor Vorpal serves as the Commander in Chief of the Protectionist Forces. Her primary responsibility is waging war with The Fractures.

Appearance
Vellichor is a female Aard, giving her a large size (6' 8") and rather intimidating appearance with several large scars. However, her generally jovial attitude and energetic presence makes many feel very welcome and safe when around her.

She has golden brown fur and a fringe of hair that follows down the back of her neck and around the sides with a spotted pattern. She has large ears that are dark on the tips and noticeably sharp teeth.

She has a gold band of metal piercing each ear. Where black bands represent a won battle for Aards, gold bands represent ten victories. She also has three bands on one ear and two on another. She has three eyebrow piercings in the same banded style, each indicating a life-partner. Her canines are capped in gold, which has no significance other than personal style.

History
Vellichor Vorpal arose out of the early battles in the War of the Fractures, many of which focused heavily on the Aard world and it's surrounding planets. Her actions led to the reclamation of many cities and many worlds before The Curia officially approved empowering The Protectionists to start forming war-efforts. The Fractures is the first true conflict in centuries, and the Gaean systems were not fully prepared for such conflict. This position the Aard well to assert themselves as ready experts.

Vellichor was nominated and accepted the position. She spent a year touring every existing world carefully and began to build strong alliances within the Discovery Corps, working with Kaneda Corral to design a series of novel orders and objectives that would help Discovery Corps serve in military objectives.

She has reputably pushed back against the Historians, requesting more and more access to the timeline for military purposes which has caused much debate and concern.

In-Game Appearances

 * Arno Stern and Boombox spotted Vellichor Vorpal emerging from a meeting room in the "Bullet Tower" after security was triggered by Gimble.
 * When Arno shot River Cobalt-Sioux, Vellichor responded by opening fire on Arno in return. She then pulled Quince Malady back into the meeting room they'd emerged from so as to avoid Boombox's grenade.
