Taxaros is a powerful fire elemental, who is estimated to have been summoned to the Academy of Jaar in Tirakan in the 8th century by Master Astrum Fabula, but it is unclear how Fabula was able to accomplish this, as he was a master of black magic in Jaar, it is assumed that he had the help of an elementalist in the ritual that took several decades to bind Taxaros.
There are two major groups of orcs on Tirakan, each made up of individual tribes and tribal alliances. These peoples are in no way really comparable to human kingdoms, there are constant conflicts and minor skirmishes.
Wisgu, hater of elves and dwarves, ruler of the first covenant is an intangible figure of dust and pure energy. In the Third Age, Wisgu entered into covenant with the Morgalas, enslaving them to perpetual servitude. His servants Turzzi and Ylvath take the form of earthen statues.
