[[Emperor Rakmarkha III]], known to history as "the Mad Emperor," was the last troll to lead this empire. It was he who recieved visions of the "[[Unborn Goddess|Goddess Unborn]]" (actually [[Help:Eris|Eris]], Goddess of Chaos, traveling through time in Her meditations) on how to further his power by summoning the chaotic demon prince [[Pazuzu]] to this realm.
[[Emperor Rakmarkha III]], known to history as "the Mad Emperor," was the last troll to lead this empire. It was he who recieved visions of the "[[Unborn Goddess|Goddess Unborn]]" (actually [[Help:Eris|Eris]], Goddess of Chaos, traveling through time in Her meditations) on how to further his power by summoning the chaotic demon prince [[Pazuzu]] to this realm.
Secretly, Pazuzu met with [[Babel]], God of Chaos, and they devised a plan to usurp the throne from [[Jy'Barrak Golgotha]], the Chaos Lord, and restore Pazuzu to his place as ruler of the [[Chaos Plane]]. Under the alias of Taug, the demon ruled over Kasmarkin with an iron claw, until the archmage [[Alcibiades]] and the [[Senator Schlastan]] devised a way of trapping him in crystal and summoning a [[Kx'Khrah]] warrior from the [[Crystal Realm]] to ensure his imprisonment.
All would have gone as planned, were it not for the Mad Emperor and those still loyal to him. Just as Alcibiades and Schlastan had encased Taug in crystal through his acceptance of a prism as a gift, the loyalists sacrified their hearts to Lord Taug, lending him enough power to unleash his wrath. Crystal shards flew in all directions, striking the loyalists and turning them to hideous creatures of ooze. This release of power also triggered an earthquake, which led to the eventual sinking of Kasmarkin into the muck of the Mannaseh.


In modern times, the city of Kasmarkin may still be risen from the depths, but it sinks again after a time, as the magic fades. One entering the city might find the mummified guards and ghosts of the senators still lurking about, as well as the loyalists-turned-oozes of Lord Taug in his Black Fortress. Furthermore, it is rumoured that both the demon lord Taug and a Kx'Khrah guardian by the name of Sh'fah might still be summoned here, through means esoteric and arcane, though woe betide he who attempts to bind them endlessly to his will.
