Baelak Shipbreaker, born upon the 1st of Chakros in the year 216 of the Midnight Age, is the founder and current Emperor of the Nazedha Empire. A Nazetu of Tribe Urmoc in the western seas, his humble beginnings as a Blackguard initiate and an aspiring priest of the Nazedha deity Lanu Du proved a perfect demonstration of his talent for fighting and leadership. A series of brutal duels proved his worth as a warrior at a young age, and in the year 239, at the age of 23, he rose to become Patriarch of Tribe Urmoc after murdering the previous Patriarch in single combat. | |||
The Sages of Tribe Urmoc, following this impressive display, conferred their blessing upon him, and hailed him as the successor to the Nazetu legacy, and thereafter he set out on a brutal campaign against the other four Nazedha Tribes - Masit, Adessim, Karthek, and Urrop. The Tribes, all with long, bloody histories of fighting one another, were not keen to form alliances, but under Baelak's leadership they were forcibly united into a single Nazedha Empire. | |||
His more recent achievements include mounting an invasion upon the continent of [[Sapience]], one that was cut short by his armies falling victim to the Aalen Bloom. Following a quarantine of infected individuals within the town of Huanazedha, he and the remainder of his forces pulled back to the islands. Despite political turmoil and the re-emergence of the Tribal conflicts, Baelak attempts to bring his people together beneath a single banner and muster a third and final Nazetu invasion against the continent. | |||
