Karas Odori

Karas Odori is the originator of both the Kaspari Empire and the Karaslaa religion. Born in Wahana, Odori grew up among the nomads of the Zarahn Tribe in the Dulqa. At the age of 19, Odori wandered away from his tribe in the middle of the night. Search parties were unable to find the young man, and the tribe moved on a few days later, assuming that Odori had died in the desert. A few weeks later, however, Odori reappeared, bearing a set of calligraphied scrolls. He had no memory of his time away from the tribe. After having the scrolls he carried read to him (for he was illiterate), he realized they contained a list of laws and proscriptions, which became the basis of the Karaslaa religion.
Odori sought to unite the various tribes of the Dulqa under these laws, but he was banished by his arrogant father, the Sheikh of the Zarahn Tribe. He gathered his close friends and new followers and set out for Qudrah to join the Tekkabi Tribe, who accepted his teachings. Odori began to get the surrounding villages under his sway. He preached the laws that bear his name to the farthest reaches of the Dulqa, although most cities did not officially acknowledge his superiority at first.
At that time, the dominant political power in the Dulqa was the city of Fulaaji, which openly mocked and ridiculed the laws of Karas Odori. Odori was disgusted by the greed and sloth of Fulaaji, and so he gathered an army to face them. The troops of Fulaaji had set out from their city on another of their many looting campaigns, only to be met by Odori's gathered forces. Karas Odori won a total victory over the armies of Fulaaji, harrying them all the way back to their city. Odori's army followed them, and when they reached Fulaaji, they destroyed it.
By the time of his death, Odori ruled over a swath of the Dulqa stretching from Jerez Bay to the ruins of Fulaaji, which contained the city of Qudrah and the oasis of Fabaas. Control over Odori's empire passed on to his son, Rehsem Karasi.
