Akasch

The Akasch were one of the first three higher races, created by Thiol, together with Ipnya and Nuon. This was during the Hidden Era.

They subjected lesser beings to experiments towards this end, ate and bred them like livestock. After a long war they were banned from Erenor into another the place of The Abyss by the Ipnya because of their doings and the seal to their prison is at the Aegis Island. To this day, they are still conspiring to release the seal, and extend their influence across the continents. Orchidna became their queen and with the fate of releasing them back into Erenor.
