## Biography

### Past

A vicious, galactic warlord known as the most dangerous being in the universe, Vilgax is one of the most feared beings in the universe, having conquered ten planets, destroyed five others and created a black hole. He is so feared, that almost no organic life form is willing to work for him. In the year 1773, Vilgax had been exiled from his homeworld for 'ambitious disobedience.' He eventually appeared on Earth , having learned of the species known as the Grimm and became interested in them, believing they could be weaponized for his plans.

Fortunately, Vilgax's plan failed, encountering fierce resistance from the founders of the secret order of the Plumbers that would be founded following this encounter. Vilgax would continue to be a threat to the galaxy, having destroyed five planets and created a black hole. He is especially hated and feared by the Gem Empire for the destruction of the Petrosapien homeworld, home to the diamond based species that the Gems actually respected even though neither side agreed with the other. Vilgax also destroyed several Gem colonies that were close to his homeworld, earning a massive price on his head by the Diamond Authority.

   Vilgax returned to Earth during the twentieth century, attempting to plunder its Dust resources as a new source of power but at the time he was unaware that Dust was useless for space travel. During his raids, he was confronted again by the Plumbers and was seemingly killed when his ship crashed into the ocean and exploded. After Vilgax was presumed destroyed Plumber activity on Earth dwindled down to only a handful remaining active while the others retired. However, since Max Tennyson believed Vilgax had survived the crash and suggested that all weapons and combat drills for fighting Vilgax would be left on stand-by if he returns.

Back when Max Tennyson was still a young Plumber, Vilgax was stealing warheads from a military base. Max and his partner Phil Billings showed up. In the resulting fight, Vilgax was stuck to a nuclear warhead by Max, and launched into his own ship.

### Hunt for the Omnitrix

   Around some time after his return, VIlgax was after the Omnitrix created to turn the user into any lifeform and saw it as his chance and was fatally injured with his body in serious repair, placed into a stasis chamber and discovered by a group of fanatics called the Flames Keepers' Circle because of his appearance almost bear the semblance of their deity, using this as an advantage to continue his goals and summoned his loyal followers such as Psyphon and a couple of mercenaries and bounty hunters to find the Omnitrix

### Reach

After being sent into orbit by Major Glory's strongest punch, Vilgax in his unconscious state was unexpectedly picked up and rescued by a Glorft scouting party and brought on board the *Karajor*under the orders of Warmaster Gorrath. Due to his reputation of bringing fear towards the most powerful empires, even the Gem Empire, the Glorft consider him a great warrior and highly respected. They put him into a stasis chamber to bring him back to health, during the battle against their enemies, the unconscious Vilgax soon stirred and slowly awakens from his injuries.

Once he interrogates a Glorft upon awakening and healing himself, learned that the Glorft who found him were from the 31st century and followed his example of defeating Earth of this time period. Vilgax makes his way to Gorrath and the Commander. There he claims that they underestimated the humans, but states that even defeated and trapped in Null Space, they had potential. Inspiring the troops to rise again with all Glorft heading his call. He then decides to aid Gorrath and his group with the first step being to give Gorrath his own aura.

Afterward, Vilgax and the Glorft slowly began rebuilding and upgrading the Karajor with the other ships trapped in Null Space. Vilgax intending to modify the Null Space Drive to take them into the Null Void and then back to his homeworld to rebuild the empire of his and the Glorft. Having intended to also call a few 'friends' with Gorrath doing the same.

## Personality

Like his other incarnations, Vilgax is ruthless, cruel, and power-hungry. In nearly all his encounters, Vilgax operates with the single-minded objective of acquiring the Omnitrix, which is the key to ultimate power. He is known to hold a grudge; most notably against Max and his family for the great number of losses he has suffered at their hands. While stranded on Earth following his first defeat at the hands of Max Tennyson, Vilgax skillfully manipulates a group of humans known as the Flame Keepers' Circle into serving him.

Upon discovering that his squid-like form resembles the alien of knowledge worshiped by the cult known as the Flames Keepers' Circle, he adopts the role for his own and skillfully manipulates his new followers into helping him escape the planet. Vilgax is a master strategist and will think of alternate ways to get things that he wants, such as tricking his enemy, if physical force isn't enough. He's a very convincing liar and will do whatever it takes to get to his goal.

He is also a grand motivator, inspiring the defeated Glorft army trapped in Null Space. Having some respect at how they rose to power and admits they aren't so different as both constantly get defeated by lower beings, but come back stronger all the same.

## Skills and Abilities

Before unlocking his Aura, Vilgax didn't display any special powers or abilities, save for tremendous agility and hand-to-hand combat skills. He already had enhanced strength and endurance, once surviving a nuclear explosion at point-blank range, though it's made clear he was seriously injured and widely believed to be dead at that time. After unlocking his Aura, Vilgax spent many years training himself against the Grimm while enhancing his body with Dust and cybernetics and increasing his power with his Semblance called Death Wave.

Vilgax is an extremely powerful fighter, able to fight Huntsmen like Major Glory and warriors like the Crystal Gems and Rex Salazar with nearly complete ease. It was only after Major Glory forced Vilgax off the planet was he temporarily weakened after the loss of his Dust powers but Vilgax quickly recovered and was only stopped by the combined effort of Ben Tennyson and Rex Salazar in his battle against them.

It also allows him to drain the Semblances of his victims use them as his own.
