Roduzaz

Roduzaz was an Orc Male who served as the 18th Tulkon. He was born in Nen Ren, Orcanth in 1076 AT.

When he was a child, his native region of Nen Ren rebelled against the government, sparking the Third Orcanth Civil War. Roduzaz was evacuated from Nen Ren to the Rodadzz Islands by the Tulkonist council, but managed to escape and flee back to Nen Ren. He arrived back home two years later only to find that his family had been killed. Not wanting anyone else to suffer as he had, he ended the war using his powers, confirming his status as the Tulkon to the world. The events of his childhood fueled his pacifistic ideals.

Each of the four races had become increasingly militaristic and imperialistic over the past few centuries, and all eyes were turning towards the Garden Continents. Tensions erupted when the president of the IHS Council was assassinated, so Orcanth and Däe Ydelhiad declared war on the RIHS, while A’Roastad supported their human allies. Norte-Muldox remained outside of the conflict, but rogue groups of Dwarves did join the fight. Roduzaz, a committed pacifist, tried to remain out of the conflict but was captured and executed by the king of Orcanth, who disapproved of his peaceful ways, in 1152 AT.

Roduzaz was succeeded by the Elf Yaaamemon. Perception of Roduzaz is mostly positive, but many believe that being unable to prevent the 40-Year War was his biggest blunder.
