Vilikar Zamiliev

"Only by unifying can we spread Lord Sanatov's light across the darkness of the Galaxy"

- Prime Legate Vilikar Zamiliev Baron Vilikar Zamiliev, born Vilikaer Tek'k, also known as the First Barakian of the Imperium or the PrimumLegatus, was a Barakian refugee who would go on to be one of the most important Military leaders during the early years of the First Imperium, being the founder of the Odestrian Legion.

Having originally been an unknown alien who was discovered on the frontier world of Odyat, Vilikar was adopted by the prestigious High House Zamiliev which had been given lordship over Odyat by Odestre Sanatov. Following the beginning of the First Great Expansion, Vilikar became the head of House Zamiliev when the house proper was attacked and killed during a raid on Odyat. In an effort to aid the expansion of the new Odestrian state into the void of the Unknown Regions, Vilikar sought to unify the the decentralized Regiments of Panas into a single, unified military force.

Following the continuation of the expansion into the southern reaches of the Odestrian arm, the Legion made contact with an unknown alien species within the sector known as "the Fence", it was here that Zamiliev discovered his species, the Barakians, had colonized the area. Using this to his advantage, he aided the young Imperial government make contact with the Barakians, bringing them into the Imperium peacefully.
