Queen N'kisi

Queen N'kisi was born into the yuan-ti purebloods, a race of serpentine humanoids with a natural affinity for magic and warfare. Her people were part of the Iturian Kingdom, a region in the world of Karkanna known for its dense jungles, swamps, and vast rivers. The Iturian people were fiercely independent and martially skilled, with a rich cultural heritage and a deep respect for the natural world.
As a young girl, N'kisi learned the importance of using her knowledge of the dense jungle terrain to her advantage. She trained as a skilled warrior, mastering the use of the machete and other weapons favored by her people, and became a master of guerrilla warfare tactics.
When High King Devon Torran and his armies arrived to conquer the Iturian Kingdom, the Red Spears were already a powerful force, known for their fierce loyalty to the queen and their unwavering commitment to protecting her at all costs. They were expert fighters, skilled in both hand-to-hand combat and the use of a variety of weapons. They were also trained in stealth and intelligence-gathering, making them valuable assets in both battle and espionage. The Red Spears were easily recognizable by their distinctive red and gold armor, emblazoned with the symbol of the queen.
During the Battle at Lake Ikengo, Queen N'kisi fought fiercely against Devon Torran's armies, leading her warriors in battle and inspiring her people with her bravery. Despite her best efforts, she was eventually wounded and forced to retreat into the jungle with her remaining forces. N'kisi's pride was wounded, and she refused to accept defeat. She went underground and became the leader of an underground guerrilla resistance, using her knowledge of the terrain and her guerrilla warfare tactics to harass and undermine the rule of High King Devon Torran.
Queen N'kisi's leadership was a driving force behind the resistance movement. Her natural charm and charisma earned her the loyalty of many followers, and she inspired them with her unwavering determination to free their people from the yoke of oppression. Her tactical genius and ruthless determination made her a fearsome opponent, and the Iturian people saw her as a symbol of their defiance against their conquerors.
The guerrilla resistance operated from hidden bases deep within the jungle, relying on their knowledge of the terrain to stay hidden from their enemies. They worked tirelessly to build alliances with other tribes and communities, seeking to build a network of support and resist Devon Torran's rule. N'kisi's influence extended beyond her own people, as she worked to unite the various tribes of the Iturian Kingdom against their common enemy.
Despite the resistance's successes, their fight was a difficult and dangerous one. The Iturian people were subjected to brutal repression and violence from Devon Torran's armies, and the guerrilla fighters themselves often faced incredible risks and dangers. N'kisi had to balance the need to keep her followers motivated and united with the need to keep them safe and avoid unnecessary losses.
