Artificially-created being, right here! WV's a member of PM's species, meaning he was cloned and grown to adulthood in a vat on an asteroid. He's not a military type, but he did lead a rebellion (which was a colossal failure, but shhh), and wants to create a new civilization to lead himself.
PM has not yet told him about her deep friendship-and-possibly-more with Ribbons, so if he spoke with Hiling and she mentioned something about those two, it could be quite a bombshell for WV...
