The Kakos Realm

Little is revealed about this man who speaks of Earth. He speaks little about himself, though his life is fully transparent. He is the leader and mentor of those who rally around his message. His mission is two-fold: to find those converts who were reached by Karoz, the messenger sent two millennia ago, and to lead an exodus out from this doomed realm before it self destructs in seven years.

Born to a slave, destined to be a slave himself, Rashnir eventually pays off the debts of a Nindan hunter to become a free man. Narrowly escaping the same death sentence as his wicked master, he travels to Grinden to make a life for himself, joining the mercenary guild and becoming second in command of the prestigious Rogis’ Rangers, trained by Rogis himself. Framed by the wicked King Harmarty, Rashnir is brought lower than any other man in the kingdom of Jand, until he meets the man who claims to come from another realm who teaches him about redemption.

Leader of the Say-awr’ tribe of werewolves, the Say-awr’ are the least amongst the werewolf tribes that make up the Kil-yaw’ which governs the werewolf culture. Zeh-Ahbe’ has become very good friends with Rashnir and would die for his mentor and friend, Kevin, who showed him his true inner worth.

These two angels accompany Kevin on his travels. Often mistaken for Briganiks, they hide their wings from most people by wrapping them close to their body and wearing a cloak. Even through these two are the least amongst the forces of Yahweh, the are still incredibly strong and their hearts are true, with a strong desire to please their master, even to the point of spiritual annihilation.

The right hand of beh’-tsah, Lord of the Gathering, and the highest ranking member of the Luciferian Order, this Arch Mage is a true devotee to his demonic master. One of the few thirty-third degree monks, he plays a pivotal role in his master’s plans for the control of this twisted realm. Proclaimed the prophet of Lucifer himself, he is single-handedly causing a revival of the Luciferian religion, and yet he is changing it subtletly enough to further the agenda of the dark lord of the Gathering.

Rutheir is as ruthless as any other warlord of the realm. Originally a subaltern warlord from one the warring factions in Mankra, most of his personal forces fell to internal revolt and coup. When it became evident that political forces were aligned against him and his desire for control and power, he converted his most loyal forces into a highly efficient group of mercenary killers. Countless experiences with King Harmarty of Jand eventually led to his move into the palace were he assumed a role as the king's lover, even. Biding his time, he was the true ruler of Jand until the opportunity to rise to the throne arose.

These two goblin brothers have allied themselves with the emerging Luciferian powers and are elevating themselves into positions that are unrivaled by other ekthro; scheming to be the lord over all of their race and to expand their holdings as they subjugate all other races. grr’Shaalg is the devious mastermind and tyr-aPt is his trusted pawn. tyr-aPt knows that if he were to form a dissenting opinion, his life would likely come to a short end at his brother's hands.

Prock has long ago forgotten his name. He is the Wyvern Rider, the Master Acolyte. He is a chemist, a mage, a warrior, and a beast tamer. Part of Absinthium’s elite Acolyte force, the only reason that he is not the most feared warrior in the realm is because few who have witnessed his ferocity have lived beyond that moment.

Growing up listening to tales of wonder and stories of adventure, Pinchot came to idolize Rashnir as a youth. He did everything in his power to gain recognition and talent, hoping to one-day mirror his hero’s accomplishments and one day join the Rogis’ Rangers himself. When the news came of Rogis’ death, Pinchot took it as a personal insult and came to personally despise everything about the ruined warrior he once admired.

A behemoth of a man, he enjoys the life of a warrior where your personal power and prowess define your limits. As the long-time second in command of the Narsh Barbarians, he was due to take it over when it’s leader died of illness; rather than make a fuss when Pinchot was appointed, Grirrg accepted a hefty sum of gold from King Rutheir and maintained his regular appointment.
