Character Story

Once a warband warrior feared across the stars, Kaul of the Bel-Lamori was a name spoken in dread—a Kesak Sky Pirate with a trail of legendary pillages behind her. When the Rift Crisis struck, her fate was shrouded in rumor. Some claimed she slaughtered her own allies and vanished.

Others said she died in the chaos of a world swallowed by rupture. But the truth was stranger still. Kaul survived. And against all odds, she made it to Earth. Her arrival, of course, wasn't without incident. She clashed violently with the Bureau of Rift Management— but somehow, through fire, force, and sheer stubborn will, she was brought into the fold.

Now serving as one of the Human God's Vanguards, Kaul holds onto a simple, almost innocent dream: to save what's left of her world... and one day, return to the glory days of raiding—this time, maybe with the Human God at her side.
