Vincent Galloway

Vincent is a former priest turned to a life of piracy after a crisis of faith caused from having his homeworld being attacked and plundered by religious fanatics. He now works with the Blackwell reavers.
== History ==
Vincent grew up on the mining colony of Prosperity, located near the border of Sol space. His father and grandfather had used the time of contention and confusion brought by the ban on religion to secure his position as the spiritual leaders of the colony. A burden young Vincent was set to inherit.
Whatever the plans were for him, they changed when the ban was lifted by the Sol government. His predecessors might have been losing their minds over what that could possibly mean, but it didn't bother Vincent. Unlike them, he wasn't interested in the power over others his position awarded him, but rather how he could use his position for the good of his flock. Choosing to study the science behind medicine while he was at it.
In 2400 he took over from his father and as time passed on, it seemed like nothing had changed. The colony still mined for resources, but the locals had began to turn more resendfull, prone to debauchery and content with living in sin. That is until late 2405 when the colony was attacked by zealous troopers. Whether they belonged to the Creed is unclear, but the motive of attack was clear as seen as what was targeted. They raised the colony to the ground, leaving only a handful of survivors that were holed up in a church.
The event led to Galloway to have a crisis of faith. Asking himself why he bothered to commit his life to spreading the word of a god that would allow for this. The winter season slowly dwindled the survivor numbers leaving only him alone to pray. Pray for them and for their damned souls as no one else would. He didn't know why, he just knew it felt like the sort of thing he should do.
Now he runs with pirate crews. Pulling his weight among them, but also serving as a priest for those who ask him to do so. Still unsure why he does it, but content with the feeling that it's right.
Who else would give a damn about their souls but him?
