Set'Karra the Dune Reaper

In the time before the Shattering, the Nagaari of the Eytridal Desert were a noble and vibrant people. They sailed their giant sanctuaries of glass and bone and migrated with the sun’s path across the burning expanse. When the rains marked the communal season, their pilgrimage carried them to the High Plateau. There, at the feet of their obsidian colossus, Kareth-Ra, they shared their histories, their grand tales of endurance, and their bloodlines. Then the cataclysm broke the land. The winds turned wild, and the sands, made liquid by the thunderous quakes, swallowed Kareth-Ra. The Nagaari found themselves marooned with their sanctuaries shattered and strewn across the wasteland. Unable to follow their sacred migrations and embrace the company of their brethren, each clan endured its own slow withering death.

The few who adapted and survived embodied the patience and precision of the desert itself. By day, they sank beneath the sands to avoid the trembling heat. In the coolness of the night, they rose to hunt. As each generation passed, the memory of their history eroded like the ever-shifting dunes, until Set’Karra emerged from the deep scorched plains to rekindle their heritage. His sorrowful empathy for their brutal lives draws them to his side. His vast knowledge of their lost traditions enthralls them. They call him the Dune Reaper – the ancient soul arisen from the forgotten sands. Equal parts spiritual leader and benevolent praetor, Set’Karra guides his people from the wound that had swallowed them, past the cairn of their lost history, and into their future as the New Coil of the Eytridal.
