− | Vashik was born in 2948 as '''Vashik ek Khonel-Melnik''', the third child-of-the-womb of Khonel ek Jolnesh-Khalnik<ref>No relation.</ref>, a mid-ranking shareholder-count within the [[Nolnek Imperium]]. Vashik enjoyed an undistinguished career as a diplomat, and in 2974, was appointed to what was thought to be a dead-end position as head of the Nolneki consulate on Inokh. Following the final Fall of Jojerykh in 2977, however, Vashik found themself the highest ranking Nolneki official on a planet whose Nolneki-born population grew from 132,571 in 2976 to 2,788,659 in 2978. As leader of the Nolneki refugee community on Inokh, Vashik was distinguished by their arrogance, a stubborn fixation on adhering to traditional Nolneki customs and laws regardless of whether or not doing so was practical or sensible, and a total inability to cooperate with Premier Khogal's<ref>No relation.</ref> government. By 2981, Vashik had been entirely sidelined by both the Inokhi government and the Jojerykhi Refugee Council (their attempts to incorporate the refugee community as the for-profit Jojerykh-Inokh Industrial Partnership having failed to catch on), and they consequently returned to Jojerykh to join the management of [[Wikku Ai]]. | + | Vashik was born in 2948 as '''Vashik ek Khonel-Melnik''', the third child-of-the-womb of Khonel ek Jolnesh-Khalnik<ref>No relation.</ref>, a mid-ranking shareholder-count within the [[Nolnek Imperium]].
