Hauscarl the Lionheart
Taznikanze warlord believed to have lived around 1800 WB. A stout neko known for his courage, Hauscarl sought to pursue the commandment of his ancestors by uniting all in creation. Hauscarl actually managed to get the Taznikanze nation to follow him in significant numbers; moving along coasts and rivers, they conquered most of the Euser continent. Although the technology of the day precluded a large invasion of Woldheim, Hauscarl still demanded the Kracian Khans swear fealty to him. His usual method of rule was to simply install local rulers favorable to him and accept tribute. By the time he was fifty he had declared himself "Master of All" and united the world in a way it had never been before. After his death, however, his empire quickly fell apart; the Taznikanze seemingly melted back into the seas. However, Hauscarl's conquests opened up the dimension to trade like never before, with the Taznikanze in the center of it. Mercantilism and trade soon become even more driving factors in Taznikanze life. It is ironic that this exemplar of Taznikanze warrior tradition would lead to an increase in commerce.
