Ur-Shakkar

Ur-Shakkar sits at the North East of Dubek and is an icy, mountainous region. The Urshaks are a hard and cold people, gambling with the oceans for coastal raids on their sleek Urdenskipts. Their capital is the defiantly coastal city of Skøld. The Urshaks make ill neighbours of the Dwarves who reside in their nearby mountain home. Ur-Shakker is currently ruled by Thane Queen Eklund from her seat in Skøld.

As brutal sea-faring folk the Ur-Shakks, among their deities, give worship to Umberlee; the chaotic evil goddess who controls the harshness of the sea while reveling in her own power and is not hesitant to drown people, if she so pleases.

As of 400AT (present day) the Adventurers heard rumour from The Blackbirds that tensions were high between the orcs of Vellan and the raiders of Ur-Shakkar.
