Biography
Early life and ancestry
Bark Dar was born in the Golden Citadel, in Bar within the Akarian Confederation, on 3-7 1549 TT during the reign of Toghon Kakay. Saymok's grandfather on his mother's side Nimbak Perat would succeed Toghon as Living King.
Bark Dar's father and the Leader of the Dar, Erik Dar died on 27-3 1528 TT. Three days later Bark succeeded him. He was made heir apparent to Living King Saymok Deram shortly after Saymok's ascension as Living King on 29-5 1522 TT. Bark Dar left Bar on 8-2 1520 TT to live in Ablesken to prepare himself for being the Living King which he became on 16-3 1475 TT following Saymok's death.
Living King
At the time of his ascension, Akaria was in a broken state. The Marauder Crisis had given rise to warlords throughout the Karin Plain. The few tribal groups that remained outside of warlord control no longer recognized the authority of the Living King and the Confederation. Only the lands of the Deram which surrounded Ablesken remained under the Living King's control.
