History
Contact with Zakaz has always been scarce, originally due to the Skakdi’s isolationist society and others’ distrust of their once-sophisticated technology and strange culture.
In the days of the League of Six Kingdoms, the nearby underwater settlement of Agnoika was the center of Barraki Ehlek’s empire, from which he ruled Zakaz itself and even distant lands such as Versuva.
Conditions on Zakaz began to deteriorate soon after the stewardship of the Makuta was established.
Landscape
Zakaz was once covered by a vast forest, where several native Rahi species such as Tahtorak and Necrofinches roamed freely, and where the ancient Skakdi lived in magnificent cities connected by chute networks. Now a wasteland ruled by backstabbing warlords and their undisciplined, brutish retainers, Zakaz has officially been placed under quarantine by the Brotherhood of Makuta – both in an effort to keep the local Skakdi away from other regions, but also to protect unwary travelers from certain doom.
Off the shore of Zakaz lies the heart of the Ursare civilization: the great undersea city of Agnoika. The Ursare people had always been builders under the sea, taking care of the great chutes that connected the universe below the waves. However, following both the defeat of Ehlek and the corruption of the Skakdi species, the Ursare have forsaken both their duty and the surface world, and now build only for themselves beneath the waves, alongside the amphibious Gawalai species, with many of the great undersea chutes falling into disrepair.
