History

Early History

Little is known about the early history of the Arkaran. What is known is that at some point a man named Tagort took over the group. At some point Tagort was succeeded by his son Ebak who was in turn succeeded by his son Yandak around 1825 TT.

Yandak

Little is known about Yandak's rule of the Arkaran. What is known for certain is that he was killed in late 1800 TT whilst chasing down Andu Kur raiders and was succeeded by his son Kadar on 2-1 1799 TT.

Kadar

Kadar had attempted to ally with the nearby Amarken during his first year in power but was rejected by their leader Harmak. An alliance between the two was established on 24-41798 TT following an increase in Andu Kur raids.

Kadar was with the Amarken when Harmak died on 24-9-1795 TT. After three days of mourning, Harmak's son Ambat proclaimed himself the leader of the Amarken. Kadar challenged the proclamation under the right of blood. The two engaged in a duel with Kadar emerging victorious and Ambat dead. Kadar was now the leader of both the Arkaran and the Amarken.

On 30-10-1795 TT Kadar announced to both the Amarken and the Arkaran that he believed that the gods that the Karinians worshipped were nothing more than powerful spirits who had been exploiting them for centuries. He went on to claim that he had defeated the King of the Spirits which gave him him foresight powers to allow him and his forces to drive back the Andu Kur during their next large-scale attack. Soon after, many drikes began to support Kadar's claim.

The Andu Kur launched an invasion of Kadar's forces on 26-4-1791 TT. Amarken warriors were some of the first deployed in the war.

On 11-7-1787 TT Kadar's forces managed to route what was left of the Andu Kur and capture the Andu city of Kanda. Kadar and the leaders of his various drike remained at the ruins of the city for ten days. On that tenth day when no Andu forces arrived, they declared the war over and began discussing what to do next. It was three days after that on 24-7-1787 TT that the Akarinian Confederation was established with Kadar as its first leader. From that point on, the Arkaran ceased to exist in an organised for and disappeared soon after.

-On 30-10-1795 TT Kadar announced to both the Amarkens and the Arkarans that he beleived that the gods that the [[Karinians]] worshipped were nothing more than powerful spirits who had been exploiting them for centuries and that for someone or something to be considered a god they must be both spirit and man. He went on to state that he had found a spirit and fused with it. He claimed that the spirit gave him foresight powers strong enough to allow him and his forces to drive back the Andu Kur during their next large scale attack. This marked the beginning of [[Kadarism]]. Soon after, many local tribal groups began to support Kadar's claim.
