Badahar'ka'Raq

Badahar'ka'Raq was the first elected Grand Consul of Raqqos after the Divine Cataclysm and Gomsode. He was chosen at the Conclave of New Birth by the surviving members of the old Consulate, apparently due to his intelligence, humbleness and reputation for charity during the Lost Years.
He was instrumental in bringing about the overthrow of the tyrant Tebes, being essentially the public face of the rebellion against him.
As Grand Consul, Badahar was focused upon the restoration of the old order. He was a relatively conservative ruler, responding to the needs of the people of Raqqos for stability and continuity in the aftermath of all the chaos and suffering. He is also thought to be responsible for initiating the construction of the great Mausoleum in the Medina Mak-Sadik, which commemorates the loss of life during the Fall of Ankh and its aftermath.
He is credited with bringing stability to the island, restoring order and safety to Raqqos and for restoring the government of the Consulate. However his continued faith in Paramac, and his enduring respect for the Solar Priests drew criticism from both his Consuls and from the people of Raqqos as a whole, who had become disenchanted with and scornful of the red god's Divine Law. 
After only three years however, Grand Consul Badahar died of Ancestor's Lung, a form of cancer which was prominent in Raqqos in the years following the Cataclysm, thought to be caused by excessive exposure to ash.
He was replaced by Grand Consul Husojar.
