Wilhelm Valerian

Wilhelm Valerian is a 42 year old Human bandit living in Eldham. He wears a fancy suit he stole in his younger years, and he prides himself on his well trimmed facial hair as well. He currently does whatever work he can and is solely devoted towards the acquisition of money and downfall of monarchism.

Early Life

Wilhelm was born a street rat in Calador Province, Raiyuna in the Ashai Crownlands. He often stole from whomever he could just to make ends meet, as the streets were often cold and harsh. He would often bluff his way into dinners with nobility who thought he was rich and they themselves were too rich to care. Once Wilhelm got enough money he bought a months provisions, and set out on foot to see the world.

Travels

He traveled south through the A.W.E and ended up with a price on his head, he then traveled westward through Ravenguard and then Eastward where he ended up in U.S.S.E and joined the communist party. Afterwars he traveled into Eleanor proper, where he heard of Pasifa. He know is active in many local communities around Eastern Eldham. He owns a home and conducts his business in Pasifa, he is an active politician and founder of The Change Party in the democratic United Commonwealth, and he is also a good friend of both the Emperor of Karino, and the Chancellor of the Ocean Volks Union.

Introduction to life of crime

As Wilhelm traveled through the AWE, he realized that he didn't have enough food or money on him to survive, and he had nothing but the diamond armor on his back and exactly 7 loaves of bread. All hope was lost until he saw two poorly equipped travelers on a road ahead. With no other choice he robbed them both, walking away with 10k in his pocket, compared to his previous 3k, and plenty of food. He then would continue this life of crime, stealing gold and equipment from vaults, sticking up ill-equipped passerby, and running scams and cons where he can.

The Pasifan Bank Heist

The Pasifan Bank Heist has so far been the acme of Wilhelm's criminal life. With around two weeks of preparation, Wilhelm managed to get himself trusted, and authorized within the bank. He then waited for the bank to close after hours, where he then went down the hole in his house, and followed the tunnel directly under the vault. Wilhelm then dug up and opened a single chest in the vault containing 2 stacks of gold blocks. However, it wasn't that simple as just taking it. The whole place was rigged, and he couldn't just take the gold and leave nothing. He instead replaced it with two stacks of sand, and managed to cover the entire hole and tunnel before anyone was any wiser. He walked out of that heist with 230k to his name, the largest heist (so far) of his career.

Political Life

Wilhelm is also quite the politician. He is an active politician in both the United Commonwealth and Karinoan Empire, as well as being the close friend of the Chancellor of the Ocean Volks Union, another democracy. He secretly holds anarchist sentiments, but realizing they'll never be adopted on a large scale, he instead promotes abolition of monarchies, globalism, and progressivism. He is currently a candidate in the United Commonwealth election for chancellor (leader) and sejm (council) and the Karino election for High Council. Although, none of his opponents are aware of his criminal lifestyle, and he is determined to keep it that way if he stands to win any election.
