The Koshtask clan is a group of orcs and other wastefolk who declined to join the Many Hosts of Igrathad. They live in the Iothia Moorlands in Xhorhas.[2]
Society[edit | edit source]
As of early 836 PD, the Koshtask are led by an orc named Arakki.[3] The Koshtask worship Gruumsh, and typically use violence over diplomacy, although on rare occasions they have allied with others against larger threats. On occasion they have partnered with the Dolorav tribe to fight off Kryn Dynasty attempts to convert them to worship of the Luxon.
This however changed some time after 836 PD, as Arakki and many others within Xhorhas received visions from the Luxon following the conception of the Bright Child. Arakki invited the Bright Queen Leylas Kryn to the Koshtask's settlement, and proclaimed his and his tribe's loyalty to the Dynasty and faith in the Luxon, and accepted consecution.[4]
