CLAN AKAAL - Overview and Recruitment

[Wizzar 613]

HONOR IN BLOOD

WHO ARE THE AKAAL?

 

The result of the union of three clans - Izig, Ram, and Mog, Clan Akaal is the culmination of centuries of orcish culture, history, and spiritualism stemming from the ancient lands of Mor’Ghuun. Clan Izig, a clan cursed to never see the light of the Stargush’Stroh, dedicated themselves to spreading Krug’s influence as penance. These urukim revered the story of the descendants of Krug, believing that hardship and suffering is what elevated one's soul. Clan Ram embraced orcish savagery and bloodlust. Those of Ram worshipped the spirit Leyd and dominated their enemies with unmatched ferocity. Clan Mog championed Orcish Xionism, putting aside the worship of the immortals to focus on the capabilities and prowess of the urukim alone. The goblins and orcs of Mog wielded their deception as a blade, using tricks and deception to shape the world in their influence. 

 

While each of these three clans had distinct identities, they held one truth in common - the descendants of Krug must take precedents over all else. That the blood, bone, and flesh of the urukim is paramount. That whether one worshiped one immortal spirit over another, or any immortal spirits at all, it must all be in service to a greater cause - the legacy and preservation of the legacy of Krug. And so, united in this cause, the three leaders of Izig, Mog, and Ram came together and formed Akaal (meaning “Of Light”). At the center of Akaal is a struggle for balance, enduring the suffering of their brethren whilst remaining in the light to ascend to the Stargush.

 

The primary duties of Akaal are to enlighten, protect, and purge. Akaal enlightens the urukim through its shamans, ilzhonals, haruspexes, and rukas, ensuring the lessons of Krug are taught and understood. Akaal protects the urukim with blood, bone, and the elements, calling upon elements of the material plane to ensure the preservation of its people. Akaal purge the darkspawn from this domain, following the footsteps and achievements of Krug who defeated Iblees against all odds. The Akaal are well-known and recognized for their feats against the evils that challenge their very existence. 

 

 

HIERARCHY OF AKAAL

 

KUKAAL OB IZIG - KUKAAL OB RAM - KUKAAL OB MOG

 

         Akaal is led by three leaders called Kukaals. Each Kukaal represents one of Izig, Ram, or Mog. The first Kukaals were represented by Skaatchnak’Izig, Krothuul’Ram, and Ixula’Mog. Kukaals share in the governance of Akaal, however, each typically devised their own purpose and goals with overlap common as they seek to further the will of Krug.

THREE PATHS OF AKAAL

 

         Traditionally, Akaal purposefully avoided structure to encourage every uruk to have autonomy in their spiritual and mortal journeys. In recent years, the elders of Akaal seek to refine their blood, guiding more toward the light. . Like the three Kukaal, three sects of Akaal have developed, shaped by the blending of culture and ideals of Izig, Ram, and Mog. These sects include the Maukaal, the Fauthkaal, and the Thrakaal are explained in further detail below.

 

MAUKAAL - WARRIORS OF LIGHT - Led by the Fakhthal, the Maukaal represent the merging of Ram and Izig. These warriors of Akaal embrace a controlled brutality and are often those who are on the front lines of any conflict. Within the Maukaal, it is common to become champions of Leyd, the spirit of Dominance and Strength, like the Rams of old. The Fakhthal leads the Maukaal into battle, ensuring that the warriors of Akaal fight with honor and to please the Ancestors. 

 

THRAKAAL - LIGHTBRINGERS - Led by the Hûn ob Grish, the Thrakaal represent the merging of Izig and Mog. These Akaal focus on haruspexy and the Grizhizubu, the orcish blood faith. Together, the Thrakaal are tasked with spreading the blood faith through ritual and the erection of Morukhs within the Horde and outside the Horde. The Hûn ob Grish is charged with guiding the Thrakaal and organizing their influence. In addition to their individual spiritual beliefs, most Thrakaal follow Throqugrish, the Heartbeat.

 

FAUTHKAAL - HIDDEN LIGHT - Led by the Zûrlaam, the Fauthkaal represent the merging of Mog and Ram. These Akaal are tasked with the darker aspects of mortality and spiritualism, investigating and learning about darkspawn. It is not uncommon for the Zûrlaam to use the Fauthkaal as a network of dangerous scions to achieve the Akaal goal of purging the lands of evil. However, to defeat the dark, the Fauthkaal are often tempted by its power. Thus, the Zûrlaam holds the important duty of ensuring that its Fauthkaal remain faithful to Krug and his descendants.
