Homebrew Acïjn Rhârk Species Details

At the highest mountain peaks — far above the slopes where trees grow and where the air is thin and the frigid winds howl — dwell the reclusive goliaths. Few folk can claim to have seen a goliath, and fewer still can claim friendship with them. Goliaths wander a bleak realm of rock, wind, and cold. Their bodies look as if they are carved from mountain stone and give them great physical power. Their spirits take after the wandering wind, making them nomads who wander from peak to peak. Their hearts are infused with the cold regard of their frigid realm, leaving each goliath with the responsibility to earn a place in the tribe or die trying.

Driven Competitors

The Acïjn Rhârk are a people who live only to fight. They were chosen by the gods to bring balance to the world. So they live with a burning hatred of all evil creatures and feel the desire to defeat them and even to destroy them completely by eating the bodies of their enemies after a battle has been won.

The Acïjn Rhârk lay their eggs in incubators. The hatched Acïjn Rhârk form a community with all the others from this chamber, similar to families and have the brood chamber name in their name, as well as the ordinal number, which shows which brood the individual comes from.

Kân Thalay

The highest goal of the Acïjn Rhârk is Kân Thalay. This state of perfect inner peace occurs for the Acïjn Rhârk when the equilibrium has been established in the world and the totality of the monsters exists in equal parts. Then comes the time of rest and inner peace, which goes hand in hand with the extinction of the indomitable will to hunt, the lust for blood and the hatred of everything bad.

War missions

Very experienced veterans, also called Daajerhůn , travel around the otherworldly and scout out other peoples about their dangerousness, anatomy and structures. The information is gathered from the Holy Mother Empress , Srai G'dàmá . This decides which peoples pose a threat to Kân Thalay and orders measures against corresponding peoples.

Acïjn Rhârk always wear full metal armor with integrated layers of leather during war missions and acts of war. This allows them to move almost silently when needed. They are very skilled in all trades, so they incorporate protective symbols in armor in order to be protected against spells and various forms of magic. Their armor is mostly made of dark steel, with silver and whitish inlays and chasings. The helmets are mostly representations of demonic grimaces. The armor is seldom taken off; the armor is used to bathe in water to cleanse the body.

A group with a Ji'Osai, a commander of a hundred, is usually sent out for smaller missions and for a practical test for inexperienced fighters. If the young soldiers are successful, they belong to the Nro'tai, the first wave in the attack, should there be a great campaign, which is considered very honorable.

For smaller deployments, the troops must consist of different breeding chambers in equal parts so that no chamber sees itself as having an advantage. During a rest, a warehouse is built from sharpened palisades. Each brood chamber prepares its food on its own fire, but in times of scarcity it is shared with other chambers. The Ji'Osai receives something from all fires so that he does not have to take care of food himself.

In the case of larger campaigns, an experienced veteran or Daajerhůn usually takes over the orders. Several hundred warriors are available to him.
