Narpaca

Narpaca are powerfully built goatlike humanoids, standing 6-7 feet, that populate the mountainous region north of Pentarex. They have the reputation generally of being a violent, savage race.

When the Pentarexians came to Kab, before the founding of their great city, there existed the great Narpaca empire with its channels, walls, pyramids, and great houses. These formidable creatures had devised a system by which they maintained control in the north, dominating disparate Narpaca tribes and any other opponents who might seek the wrest control from them. In this way order was kept and the Narpaca empire had the blessing, it was said, of the Xibalban forces of death and destruction. Civilization was made. So long as the sacrifices were kept, so did the Narpaca prosper and maintain their dominance.

But then came Pentarex. For a time they resisted the onslaught, but eventually fell to elemental magic as firestorm and snowstorm rained upon then, with bolts of lighting to rival the might of the great Thunderers. Such is how the Narpaca fell, their cities destroyed, their way of life all but extinguished. Such is how Pentarex was founded upon the three hills by the shore. Such is how the might of the Narpaca is no more, but for the tribes who struggle to maintain their existence, hiding in caves to the north. Now, they are reduced to a state of barbarism, struggling among one another for dominance and for survival.
