Line 1: Line 1:
Members of the '''Horkval''' race are armour-clad insectoids, first documented in the annals of history for their participation in the battles on [[Nishnatoba]]. Notably, the shock-troops of [[Aegis|Aegis, God of War]], were composed primarily of Horkval armed with spears and shields who fought well as a cohesive unit.  
[[File:Achaea_Bard.png|thumb|Horkval are at home in almost any environment.]]Members of the '''Horkval''' race are powerful, though not particularly intelligent, armour-clad insect-like humanoids. Used as shocktroops by [[Aegis|Aegis, God of War]], during the battle on [[Nishnatoba]], horkval are fearsome allies, who show no fear in battle, and who work together on a level surpassed only by the crystalline Kx'khrah.
 
Their origin is not known, but it is almost certain that they did not originate on the continent of Sapience, and possibly not even on this world. The [[Rapo'kir Hive]] settlement of Horkvals resides on the [[:Category:Islands|island]] of [[Ulangi]], but whether that was where they originated or were simply placed by the God of War as reward for their deeds done is not known. However, the [[hobgoblins|hobgoblin]] Blademaster [[Matic Ridley|Matic Ridley's]] accounts pertaining to the [[Black Wave]] describe beings matching the description of Horkvals as living in the [[Underrealm]]. They are known to exhibit a hive-like social structure.
 
Horkval are characterised by armour-like exoskeletons or carapaces in many different colours. They stand taller than most humans, on par with rajamala and xoran, but are generally shorter than trolls. Some have more insectoid features than others, such as mandibles and antennae. Hair, while uncommon, is not unheard of.

The origins of the horkvali race are unknown. The [[Rapo'kir Hive]] settlement of Horkvals resides on the [[:Category:Islands|island]] of [[Ulangi]], but whether that was where they originated or were simply placed by the God of War as reward for their deeds done is not known. However, the [[hobgoblins|hobgoblin]] Blademaster [[Matic Ridley|Matic Ridley's]] accounts pertaining to the [[Black Wave]] describe beings matching the description of Horkvals as living in the [[Underrealm]].


Horkvals are given the ability to leap. [[Adventurers]] of other races longing to mimic them must purchase the [[chitin greaves]] [[artefact]].
