Helios I (Tilly Angolmois)

Ang0lmois, known more commonly as “Tilly  or “Lord Tilly  is a minor nobleman and former diplomat/chief of staff now residing in Arcadia.

Early Life:
Not much is known about Tilly. What is known is that he was a noble boy in the court of Acquendavia, having hailed from the Angolmois House. His mother having been a minor lady and Tilly never knowing his real father. He grew up educated in the manner of diplomacy, mathematics, literature, and philosophy. At the age of 19 he became a footman in the Acquendavian army and through rapid success during the Great Alathran War, was promoted to chief of staff of a minor Acquendavia battalion.

Later Life and Impoverishment:
After the war, Tilly returned home hoping to reap the rewards and further successes as a chief of staff, hoping one day to become a field marshall or even carve out his own fief or cabinet position in the court. But the Prospitian Revolution had led to the collapse of Acquendavia, along with the death of his mother and loss of his family wealth. Tilly, having served the Empire and being a noble, knew he could no longer remain on the continent of Prospit and fled.

Arrival in Koganon:
Tilly somehow ended up in Koganon, years later. He was now more serious, muscular, sporting a distinctive mustache. Some reports indicate he spent a year or more at MelonCrest, living amongst the religious and adopting some of their beliefs. Other theories range into him traveling around Koganon and Gaushan, gathering information and learning more about the peoples there. What is known for sure is that Tilly decided to step foot into Kais Termina one day and become a citizen of Arcadia.

Appointment as Mayor and Governor:
Through various political inroads made in his time in Arcadia, Tilly was able to secure a posting as the 2nd mayor of WinterHallow and the 1st Governor of Teufort for the Arcadian Altanate, becoming "Governor Tilly" where he proceeded to lay the groundwork of a more centralized and improved WinterHallow...

Prime Minister of Arcadia:
Tilly ran as the Reform Party candidate, and was elected as the Fifth Prime Minister of the Arcadian Altanate on 12/20/21, running against JiraiyaFan of the Roast Party. Tilly proceeded to shake up the internal politics and entrenched powers of Arcadian bureaucracy through scathing critiques of Senators, Governors, and other Arcadian officials deemed incompetent or otherwise not the right fit. Prime Minister Tilly sought to expand efforts into stabilizing and repopulating the lands of Gaushan but was met with backlash from within the Senate. Various incidents arose such as a miscommunication with Lydoneia that was quickly handled, and a failure of planning and diplomats at the Prospit Conference, resulting in worsening relations with the USNET. Tilly became close working friends with Specz Arcanes and maneuvered for his appointment as Governor of Icesteel. Tilly became close friends with Lydoneian leader Aurelius and rushed to Lydoneia's aid when Jotunstan sought conquest against Silvermoon. Tilly called for a "Koganon Crusade" against the biomancers and demonic forces within the city urging all Alathrans to take up arms and stand beside the Lydoneian defense. Jotunstan surrendered within the day. Because of Tilly's quick response, the newly elected Altan and his enemies within the Senate felt sidelined, a vote for impeachment was brought against Prime Minister Tilly which passed with 3/5ths of the Senators, Tilly becoming the first Prime Minister to be removed from office in Arcadia.

Post-Impeachment and Temple of Carnis Massacre:
Following the removal from office, Tilly became more focused on his governorship of Teufort, reaching out to neighbors and other notable individuals to improve the area. A project began formulating between Tilly, Senator Plato "Heavy Weapons Guy", and Governor Specz under the funding of Mann Co. and Tilly's supervision. While this was being worked on a city in Arith, Romanus Silva, was hiring mercenaries against the worshippers at the Temple of Carnis. Tilly took payment to enroll in the Silvan mercenary company lead by thetartarsauce against the Carnis worshippers. Tilly was joined by his friend "Heavy Weapons Guy", Silvans, and mercenaries from the FCA. What followed was a massacre of unprecedented brutality. Almost none were spared. Brutal skirmishes took place in the jungle surrounding the Temple and unparalleled carnage occurred inside the Temple. Almost none were left alive. Eventually the remainder of the Temple surrendered unconditionally. Tilly distinguished himself among the Silvans for his planning abilities and disdain for Carnis worshippers.
