Godking Doruk

Doruk Lot Baqaran is the albino ex-slave emperor of Doruk's Empire and a hybrid Homo Potens/Homo Novo exile from the lands of New Zion who seeks power over the Sunstone super weapon. Doruk serves as the de facto secondary antagonist of early canon, imposing on the primitive cultures of Gost in a manner more direct than that of New Zion's Homo Novo as leader of an advanced empire on a conquest campaign against against the Homo Potens.

Personal History
Doruk was born in one of the domed cities of New Zion and spent his young childhood struggling at the bottom rung of Neo-Zionist society. At some point in his young adult life, Doruk overpowered the social system and attempted to steal the Sunstone super weapon from Zionist hands. Doruk succeeded in taking the weapon from the Homo Novo of New Zion but in the middle of escaping the deserts around New Zion, something went wrong and the super weapon activated it's artificially intelligent consciousness. The super weapon destroyed Doruk's aircraft and nearly killed him as it streaked across the sky, dropping Doruk into ancient Pahoya lands and crashing into the island known as Saltunn in modern times. Doruk maintained a small component fo the super weapon called a Shard which granted Doruk the give of long life. Through the power of the Shard, Doruk escaped slavery in Pahoy and overthrew the government in the northeastern region of a desert salt flat called The Salts where an unknown oasis served as the seat of power for Doruk and his rebel government. In time, Doruk began building up an army, teaching the savages of the region how to forge bronze weaponry and treated leather armor. Eventually Doruk had built up an empire in the deserts of northern Gost. In the Age of Unease, Doruk's Empire stood at a standstill against the forces of the Sunstone as the conscious super weapon had created an entire race of humanoids of artificial origin and makeup known as Konoks. The Konoks worshiped the Sunstone as a god and saw Doruk as their antithesis. In time, Doruk's empire waged indirect war on Saltunn through Pahoy while Saltunn used Luria as a puppet state against Doruk's empire. Eventually, the Sunstone was destroyed and Doruk began waging a conquest campaign on the lands of Lepkua and Luria until a Kelekossi native was employed by the Homo Novo of New Zion to assassinate Doruk. The Kelekossi warrior succeeded in killing the emperor and eventually superseded him as ruler of the empire, leading the peninsula of Gost into a golden age.
