== First Appearance ==
Rise of the Blood Masters 
== Description ==
King Nar is a tall, intimidating orc. He is very muscular and barrel-chested. His armor is decorated with polished, blackened animal skulls and his yellow teeth are the size of a man's thumb, 
== Personality ==
More cunning than the leaders who came before him, King Nar still uses the vast numbers of the horde to gain an advantage in battle, but also relies on trickery to keep his enemies in the dark until it's too late to react. He keeps a tight rein on his subjects, who are usually extremely combative even with each other. Under his rule, much of the ritual fighting has ceased in order to keep his troops numerous and healthy. He's also very ambitious. Even after the death of Vosper, he has not ceased his conquest of Durn. 
== History ==
In the Chronicles of Tallin, King Nar makes an appearance again in Book five, Rise of the Blood Masters, during the siege of Mount Velik. He is noted to be a clever tactician, rallying his troops efficiently. He bans the bride-death battle, a tradition in which orcs would battle each other to the death to claim a female, to maximize his troops' numbers. He also outlawed the infanticide involved in the bride-death battle.
When his troops invaded the mountain, he sent legions of footsoldiers to fall on the arrows of the defending army, depleting their resources and giving his forces the advantage through sheer numbers. The mountain fell under this assault, and he had plans to expand his advance while they occupied Mount Velik. In Kathir's Redemption, he delivered a rousing speech to his troops, preparing for battle, but his army was taken out the induced volcanic eruption. It is yet unknown if he survived.
