Skez (SKEZ)

Skez is the evil Lizardfolk Empire where uncivilized Lizardmen live afflicted with Crudism "Crude' Blood". These intelligent reptiles date back to some undocumented time of the First Age of Man (making their civilization over 4000 years old). Not much is known of the societies of Skez but it is known they worship both there creator Hixx'lixxapis "Poison, Sickness and Disease" and the evil God of monsters M'Guglagoth. 
Skez is also home to Bullywugs and various forms of poisonous snakes and insects. Scholars who have read the history of Saint Killian Karmaduke know that the Lizardmen and Bullywug races pre-date Crudism "Crude' Blood" and the The Black Floode / B'lixnn Farg war that begun the 4th Age of Man.
However, the humanoids of Skez have always been evil and clear worshipers of Hixx'lixxapis from the moment of their creation. Tales of ritual sacrifice and monolithic alters of Hixx are written in the notes of human expeditions of the past. Skez is an evil den of death and slithering things filled with poison and hatred. Even the Elves dare not enter those lands, nobody visits Skez willingly.

The Crusade of Saint Killian Karmaduke.

In the begining of the second Age of man,Saint Killian Karmaduke and  his loyal legion of Greygorian Knights ventured to explore and cleanse the swamp jungles of Skez. Killian was the only one to survive this crusade, returning a broken man forever changed by the untold horrors he witnessed at the hands of Hixx'lixxapis and his followers. Killian escaped by casting the first clerical spells of Laydi'wahni "The White Lady", becoming the first human Cleric to cast, and the first Saint of the White Church. Sadly he was institutionalized shortly after returning, due to mental instability and madness.
