## Founding and History

Brogkt began as a single tribe, the Tribe of Brogkt, ruled by a chieftan. As part of the the ceremony for ascending to the position of chieftan, a young Balgruk ventured into a cave of bandits to prove himself in combat, but found himself facing off against necromancers. Despite the odds, he prevailed, and in victory, claimed a runic artifact granting himself necromantic powers.

Using these powers, and combined with his newfound leadership, Balgruk expanded by conquering the surrounding tribes. After some time, his sister suggested he use his powers to revive his fallen foes after victory, to lessen the hatred towards their conquerors. With this in mind, Balgruk continued expanding Brogkt with little resistance for years before his sisters suggested he stop for some time to focus on improving Brogkt's infrastructure.

In the following golden age of the newly-founded nation, Balgruk found himself bored. Again, his sister suggested he find a way to entertain himself, and his magical arena was constructed, featuring various mercenaries and the Binturians at its grand opening in the spring of 10,018.
