Heshkari

Overview

Heshkari was a champion and one of the founding heroes of Asgartha, later establishing the Bravos Faction. Known for defending those in need regardless of origin or ideology. Served as one of Rune’s closest companions and became one of the Runic Knights.

Background

When the reunited Tumult Nomad tribes faced potential civil war, Rune built a coalition around Heshkari, gathering sympathizers who supported unity over power struggles. Heshkari worked with Caellach, Tamrat, Aksoy, and Heeren as Rune’s secret allies.

At Kuningasplatz, Heshkari’s forces encircled the three Baron armies (Cilistro Tighe, Balram Kasun, Ainara Aldana) and imposed an ultimatum to lay down arms. When the Phoenix descended from the The Acus, it perched on Rune’s shoulder rather than Heshkari. Heshkari was the first to bend the knee, followed by Caellach and all others.

Heshkari served on the Trusted Council and later founded the Bravos Faction.
