Ak Shabakk

​

 

In Vizyerus, the Ak Shabakk are considered one of the most warlike and expansionist races in the world, as indicated by early reports written over 6,300 years ago, around 5,300 B/SI (Before Supreme Intervention). They bear a resemblance to Orcs, if I may draw a comparison. Ak Shabakk, or in the common tongue, Ak ("Sons") Shabakk ("Earth"), translates to "Sons of Earth." These individuals inhabit mountainous and arid regions.

 

The Shabakkians once spread across various tribes, each led by a Chieftain. In the distant past, they existed in isolation, often independent and occasionally at war or peace with each other. What remains certain is that, following The Supreme Intervention, a Greater Chieftain emerged to unite and consolidate all tribes, in anticipation of Judgment Day. Thus, for the past ten centuries, the Shabbakians have been under the rule of a sole leader. Presently, in the year 999 B/C, Borg, possessing both the strength to avoid challenges and the wisdom to avoid seeking them, reigns over his kingdom. Chosen nearly unanimously in 981 B/C, he commands all Ak Shabakkian tribes, preparing for an epic and potentially blood-soaked battle that looms on the horizon in the world of Vizyerus.

 

Khum Lugrug stands as the capital, the very tribe that bore and houses Borg. Its defenses project an intimidating image from a distance, while its formidable army stands poised to defend its banner's colors or to breach the walls of others, leaving their colors ablaze.

 

Rumors circulate—though with an air of uncertainty—that an alliance exists among the Ak Shabakkians, the Wukaals, and the Theuses. In secret gatherings, they strategize against the Danadorns, Iziallians, Shav Gorins, and other races that cross their paths. As Judgment Day approaches, anticipation lingers to discern whether this alliance will indeed materialize, as the only certainty lies in the crimson sunrise...
