Mental characteristics
Personal history
During his early years as a war historian for the Memoriam Inanimatam with a particular focus in weaponry and conservation, Iliac took a keen interest in the ancient art of Gravitational Collapse as practiced by the members of House Fuil na Réaltaí - in 39 EG/LL the organization arranged for Iliac to meet with the leading expert in the form, a then-16 year old Galexia. He spent more than a month at The Mantle undergoing intensive training in the art form (which supplied the material for his 42 EG/LL text "The Art of Gravitational Collapse").
Iliac and Vigore did not meet again until 41 EG/LL, when Saxon Seath first began to etch his name in Anima's history books by supplying the Mortelle populations of Albion and beyond, thus reigniting the Anima-Mortelle Wars after approximately 28 years of armistice. Iliac, having spent the last 2 years training in every martial art he could reasonably access and now able to defend himself as well as any Uxor Morte, joined the bivouac encampment in his new capacity as officially ranked Memoria/m and freshly-minted war correspondent and was surprised but delighted to find his teacher from years earlier encamped a few tents over.
Over the next century or so of Saxon-fueled conflicts Iliac and Vigore, as she preferred to be called, grew increasingly close and developed a deep friendship based in respect for one another. With her help Iliac went so far as to adapt techniques from gravitational collapse for those of Serousian/Sauserousian ancestry, crafting such new techniques as the Iliac Crest and the Stellar Riptide and replacing the meteor hammer with a salted net and hook. Conversely, he sat as a rapt audience for Vigore's experimentations with combat, dance, and movement time and again. Some time in 142 EG/LL, after thousands of nights keeping watch beside low campfires, Iliac quietly and resolutely declared his love for the undying star while annotating his battle notes for the day. By 145 EG/LL they were Promised to one another, though with their collective lifespan and free-spirited nature as a couple they saw no reason to rush toward the ceremony of a Bloodfasting.
They would never see their bloodfasting ceremony, as on 28 Cathasach, 1039 LL during the Battle of Eventide Iliac was struck by a bolt of powerful magic whilst taking notes on the battle from a hilltop and disintegrated on the spot, leaving no possibility that he might return in another Inmortui form. Only his journal remained, bioluminescent ink still wet. It and all of his other effects were given to Vigore following his honoring by the Memoriam Inanimatam, and she has kept herself busy in the 9,481 years since his Loss.
Vigore would return to Anima’s newest installment of the Anima-Mortelle Wars as a member of the elite Découverte task force with the onset of the Magner Conflicts, fighting in every major battle and several pivotal skirmishes of the end of the War and avenging her Lost love by striking the killing blow against Magner alongside longtime friend and fellow Découverte member Aleydis Maudeleyn Lake.

Movement Studies
Vigore is the founder of a number of schools of movement throughout Anima's storied history, having devoted most of her public research on behalf of the Memoriam Inanimatam to studies of movement in both the Animist and Mortelle realms. Many of the traditional dances she's credited with are still performed in the modern day, some of which include:
- El Alumbrado (folk dance) - performed with ceremonial fulgor, or “lightning flash”.
- La Retrograda (folk dance) - incredibly high-tempo partner dance that regularly changes who is leading/following throughout, constantly requiring the dancers to perform their part backwards
- La Madrugada (religious dance) - typically a pas de seule/solo performed during the festival of Chiaroscuro, represents one’s journey through darkness into light
- Bluestar
- Peeress
- Princess
- The Sun of the Night Sky
- Avalonian
- Broceliandic
- Old High Avalonian

- Common
