Supposedly living from around 500BD - 250BD, he won the Hoqon Wars, uniting Seleru and Simber and ending the Qeyu Hoqomer, and he won the Burning Sea Wars against Vesdoria decades later. Under his rule, the Xilou Hoqomer consumed most of Baracsa save Nor. His descendants continued the hoqomer's expansion into Armalia. His expansion brought civilisation to most of Baracsa, paving the way for later kingdoms and empires.
