Thalassara

Tarka’an takes the form of a towering humanoid figure with elements of various creatures. His skin is furred and scaled in patches, shifting with the season—fur in winter, scales in summer. His eyes burn with an amber glow, like a predator's gaze. Large antlers sprout from his head, adorned with feathers, bones, and vines that tangle together. His fingers end in claws, and his body is covered in markings reminiscent of both ancient runes and beastly scars. Often accompanied by a cloud of birds or a slithering trail of serpents, he seems to move as one with the wilderness.

Born from the first cries of life on land and sea, Tarka'an rose as a guardian of beasts in a world shaped by Calypso’s waters and Baron Samedi’s cycle of life and death. He was created to protect the wilds from civilization’s encroachment, ensuring that both animals and monsters had their place in the world. Though often at odds with Calypso’s tranquil seas and Baron Samedi’s impartial judgement, Tarka'an serves as a necessary balance to the divine forces, reminding both gods and mortals of nature's unpredictable might. His followers, beastmasters, druids, and monstrous races—honor him with rituals of blood and bone, ensuring that no creature’s spirit is forgotten.
