Kukris Am-Alraq

"You think this is a gift? To be cursed with this pathetic facsimile of life? No. It is no gift. But it is an opportunity, and with it, I shall eradicate you and your whole wretched empire" - King Kukris I
King Kukris I Am-Alraq, sometimes known as the King of the Night, was the king of the Raqmura Kingdom in the times of Ancient Izir. He founded the mercenary company known as the Nightstalkers, and was a fearsome warrior. During his reign he lead a series of conquests and managed to annex Azakkad into his kingdom. He was known for his use of stealth tactics and surprise ambushes.
Kukris, and his loyal Nightstalkers, were resurrected by Aziz Al-Ahmed in 20.83, with the aim that he would become a loyal warlord for the necromancer. Instead, Kukris took his army, and a large chunk of Aziz's risen dead, and started a rebellion against The Necropolis.
Kukris travelled to the ruins of Raqmur and made his base of operations there. He was furious to discover that a Deeproot plantation was situated nearby, so he destroyed it, killed the owners, and freed the slaves, instead allowing them to serve him and his undead army in Raqmur.
King Kukris has offered himself and his army as a mercenary force for hire, and is especially willing to be hired to fight against the armies of Aziz. He has since been hired, at different times, by the Erdannian Empire and the Izir Confederacy.
