Vasiliev Blaku is a previous member of The First World military force generally known as Command. He was stationed on Earth 44 and participated in an engagement with the entities within The Ink, including the Mirror Octopus, Preacher and Neural Mosquitos.
Due to the brutality of The Sword in his pursuit of the Preacher within The Ink, as well as his very high casualty rate, Vasiliev Blaku plotted to kill The Sword. His attack on The Sword was foiled by Cristina Thompson, whom Blaku suspected was going to tell The Sword of their plan, and he was subsequently sent to Teskoy Prison for her purported murder during the coup attempt.
He is described as being a prankster, a fool and a clown by Conn Thompson.
Blaku was last seen attempting to access a helijet in the helijet bay of Teskoy Prison, as the failsafe explosives detonated aboard the gateway facility suspended in the wall of the Teskoy Prison reality. His current status is unknown.
Traits:
Described as a prankster and a clown. Suffered psychological damage due to his engagements in The Ink.
