Percy Armillio was a Skithan naval captain, explorer and navigator during the late 17th and early 18th century, best known for his explorations of present-day Zamastan and parts of the eastern Agrimai Ocean shores.
In 1704, Armillio made two attempts on behalf of Skithan King Almarez II to settle the island of Doris via a route through the Agrimai Ocean. However, he sailed past Doris by mistake and discovered a larger landmass, the land that would soon be named Zamah S'tan. In 1710, he landed at Point Tarin and explored the region around the modern Tofino metropolitan area, laying the foundations for a colony.
Armillio also discovered the Armillio Strait and the immense Horseshoe Bay on his final expedition, while looking for a passage way to other Skith colonies. In 1726, after wintering on the shore of Horseshoe Bay, Armillio wanted to press on further east, but most of his crew mutinied. The mutineers cast Armillio, his 4 sons, and seven others adrift; the Armillio's and their companions were never seen again.
