Korrgai Tribes

Once more, the Korrgai have descended from the mountains to raid and pillage. Apparently, they were unaffected by the plague; they have grown in number while the humans suffered great loss of life. They are seen more frequently and they venture ever deeper into the heartland.

Warriors of the Red Hand

It seems that a few of the Korrgai warbands have joined together under one banner - the red hand of Saiffelbrandt.

Uldugai

A new kind of demon has appeared in the lands of man, often accompanying Korrgai warbands; it is larger, stronger, faster and more aggressive than the regular Korrgai, but shares the same pig-like attributes. The knights of the Sacred Swords are investigating the matter, but it is not yet clear what dark sorcery is responsible for that. The knights call these beasts Uldugai.

Bred for a Long Forgotten War

To understand the Korrgai, one must understand their history. They have lived in these lands for many centuries, longer than any human or Korrgai remembers. However, the records kept by the church and the universities show that there is much more to them than just a lust for blood.

These demons are the only ones that are known to be able to sire offspring. According to scripture, they were created by Ennef, the most powerful mystic and demonologist in all of history. Much of his energy and expertise went into the creation of the Korrgai (he called them Nushtuk). They were specifically created to serve as the army of Tepesh and wage the wars of conquest in the name of the god king Nekhotep, Ennef's brother.

Although they look like a mix of man and pig, presumably many other animal traits were introduced into these demons. They are somewhat smaller than the average man, but they have more endurance and need less food. They are loyal and often fight without regard for their own safety. Also they breed and grow much faster than humans and only one out of four Korrgai is born female.

It has been observed that the Korrgai women are highly valued and well protected in their societies. The drive behind the roaming warbands might be the quest for fame and riches to be considered worthy of a wife.
