As transcribed from the books of the Cabilis Historians...
The greatest Iksar to have ever walked the land was Venril Sathir of the Kunzar tribe. Venril was raised in Charasis, the son of a war-chief of the Kunzar during the time of division among the tribes of the Iksar. He was said to have never been a mere broodling. He was forever a master of combat.
Venril would soon slay his father and take his rightful place as chief of the Kunzar Tribe. He led the Kunzar on many expeditions into the ruins and wilds of Kunark. He sought knowledge and weapons.
In his late youth, he stumbled upon the hidden library of Kotiz, a necromancer born in times long forgotten. Within the library, it is said that he opened a large book which contained a small room. Climbing into the book-room, he discovered a tome with such magical power that it hovered in the air of its own will: The Holy Writ of War, bound in Iksar skins and containing great knowledge of combat and magic. Venril became the book's master.
Venril soon showed signs of arcane knowledge. He began to wield the forces of Necromancy and his knowledge of combat tactics became supreme. He trained his army in strange new tactics and even raised the bones of the fallen to fight for their new master. His army grew swiftly and marched to all corners of Kunark.
Venril Sathir's army was now unstoppable. He would soon bring about the union of the entire Iksar nation. He no longer wished to be just Chief, but rather, Emperor. Under his direction the four remaining tribe states of Iksar would unite, and the Iksar Empire would arise.
