Attacks:

Sailor Scout Attack: Voracious Consumption!
Jörmungandr speaks the name of his attack, and targets within a ten-foot radius will feel a heavy pressure, as if they are wrapped in the coils of a great serpent; they will then be filled with a sudden voracity, as if something inside them has been scooped out and replaced with a hunger that cannot be filled. This hunger will swell and become all-consuming, until all they can think about is the need to devour, and the weight of the serpent will grow heavier and more claustrophobic, creating a pressure that can result in lasting minor bruises at player discretion. This need lasts for 25 seconds, and Jörmungandr can use this attack three times per battle.

Super Sailor Scout Attack: Voracious Crush!
Jörmungandr speaks the name of his attack, and targets within a ten-foot radius will feel a heavy pressure, as if they are wrapped in the coils of a great serpent; they will then be filled with a sudden voracity, as if something inside them has been scooped out and replaced with a hunger that cannot be filled. This hunger will swell and become all-consuming, until all they can think about is the need to devour, and the weight of the serpent will grow heavier and more claustrophobic, creating a crushing pressure that can result in lasting bruises at player discretion. This spell lasts for 35 seconds, and Jörmungandr can use this attack three times per battle.

Eternal Sailor Attack: Voracious Calamity!
Jörmungandr speaks the name of his attack, and a shadow covers him over, leaving only his eyes still visible, and then spreads out from him to an 18-foot radius. He is filled with a voracious appetite for power, and for the next 30 seconds, all magic within the radius is stalled and new magic is consumed by the shadows and cannot be cast (fourth stage magic is unaffected). Once the magic ends, paused spells are resumed and new magic can be cast again, but those affected may be left with a lingering voracity (for whatever might suit the character) after the magic ends.

Deep Space Senshi:

Physical Features: Blunted horns, a draconic tail, and small smatterings of scales on his shoulders and hips, all with a galaxy pattern. These scales do not provide any extra protection and in fact are more sensitive to certain sensations than unscaled skin. In addition, on his homeworld, the “stars” in his hair and on his scales glow with a subtle bioluminescene.

Backstory/History:

Jormungandr was a tropical jungle planet, and over the many millennia of its existence, it had seen its host of societies—groups that rose and fell, leaving ruined cities in the vast jungles that stood as monuments to those long past. Once, centuries ago, in one of those lost cities, a strange, oily black rock fell from the sky. The Sailor Jormungandr of that era recognized it as tainted by Chaos, but it was weak, so he was able to seal it away in the depths of his city’s grand temple, and he took his people and moved them somewhere safer, declaring the old city forbidden, dangerous ground.

That civilization fell. A new one rose in its place. Things were lost, until all that was left were rumors of a forbidden place deep in the jungle, where one might find power of an unknown kind.

Keziah Akeley, the Sailor Jormungandr at the fall of the Silver Millennium, was an adventurer. And while his adventures frequently took him off world, his voracious curiosity about how own world’s fragmented past often sent him on expeditions to recover lost knowledge, and that led him, eventually, to seeking out the legendary sealed city and what lay within.

He found it. In the heart of the ancient temple, Keziah found a crumbling reliquary, surrounded by fading wards. By the time he realised what he had found, it was too late—by opening the chamber, he had broken the last of the seals, and the Chaos was free. He took his team and fled, attempting to reseal the doors behind them, to no avail.

Night fell on Jormungandr. And day did not return.

And in the dark, people began to hunger.

The Chaos created a deep hunger that could not be satisfied. No food would fill them, and slowly, people began to waste away, becoming more and more desperate as time went on. By the end stages of the Chaos-borne illness, its victims were reduced to emaciated skeletons, desperate for even the slightest bit of relief, no matter what form it came in.

This Chaos-induced disease poisoned the water and the plants that drew from it, meaning that the desperate simply made themselves sicker by consuming more tainted sustenance. It showed its presence by creating black veins through contaminated organic matter, and a strange oil-slickness to contaminated water.

Keziah and the dwindling few non-infected were forced to retreat deeper into the jungle, setting up in a ruined city far from the epicenter of the outbreak. Keziah did everything he could to protect the few survivors, including dangerous runs to try to collect non-contaminated supplies to keep them going, but eventually, as Chaos spread farther and farther, there were simply no supplies to find. People began dying, and while Keziah took increasingly personally reckless and risky action in an effort to protect his people, it was in vain. Eventually, he was the only one left.

He wandered his dying world for centuries, hoping to find anyone else left. But there was only Chaos and emptiness, until there was a light from beyond the dark sky that called him away.
