+**KHAN PARSNAK THE FIRST**
+Parsnak began life as a common warrior in the Therk tribe of nomads, settled in eastern [[Gatavia]].  His fortunes changed when the Khan of the tribe at the time ordered him to accompany his grandson [[dengwur|Dengwur]] as a guard and companion.
+Parsnak thus began a life of adventuring and conquest that led him to the rulership of his tribe.  Parsnak felt overwhelmingly obligated to follow and protect [[Dengwur]], bearing much respect for his Khan's orders.  He joined in fighting a dragon, and defeating the Old One Horrible Cyrus.   When [[Dengwur]] rose to become Overlord, Parsnak's service was richly rewarded as Dengwur made him new Khan of the Therks.  His line has ruled the Therks ever since.
+Parsnak had found the adventuring life in train to Dengwur difficult, since Parsnak could not speak [[Ardean]] or [[Northron]], had to rely on Dengwur or hired translators for communication with most of the people he met.  He himself loved nothing more than horses and hunting.   He built a horse ranch a few miles from Dengwur's caverns, and built a hunting lodge in the Elf Wood nearest to [[Portchester|Portus Nardo]].   He much preferred archery to hand to hand fighting, but would get his hands dirty at need.
