# Torrax A powerful nation encountered indirectly through Rose's transitions and through [[World of Tarin/01 - People/01 - Player Characters/The Rose of Igoda/Ahkai|Ahkai]]'s testimony. ## Known Facts - Ahkai describes Torrax as a **machine** in which everybody works for Torrax and people are treated as cogs in something larger. - Ahkai says Torrax raised him, trained him and used him. - [[World of Tarin/01 - People/02 - Non-Player Characters/Nezphu|Nezphu]] is protected there and treated with extraordinary, near-religious importance. - Torrax was hunting [[World of Tarin/01 - People/02 - Non-Player Characters/Rose|Rose]]. - The Empress sent the [[World of Tarin/03 - Factions & Organisations/Shuyet|Shuyet]] to recover Rose; they failed. - Ahkai believes Torrax then approached [[World of Tarin/03 - Factions & Organisations/Zinabda|Zinabda]], although that chain of command is his inference rather than a directly confirmed fact. - Ahkai knows first-hand that Torrax makes use of children it considers special or useful, which is central to why he chose to protect Rose. ## Open Questions - What does Torrax intend for Nezphu? - What did Torrax intend to do with Rose if she was recovered? - What is the full role of the Empress and the Shuyet? - How do the Architects, Éterüm, Divine, Seventh Iteration and Ko'vatar fit into Torrax's beliefs or plans? ## Navigation - [[World of Tarin/02 - Places/Places|Nations & Regions]] - [[The Rose of Igoda/00 - Campaign Overview/Campaign Overview|Campaign Hub]]
