The Kur'ru'skunal Organization in Project Chaos | World Anvil

The Kur'ru'skunal

The greatest sin any demon could enact...for it was treason and revolution against our divine father that nearly led to the end of our realm. The Kur'ru'skunal, The Prideful Sinners of Chaos. Just uttering the name brings back a fear deep in me I would not wish unto my greatest enemy.  
- Zanii'vol Ev'kiilos

The Prideful Sinners of Chaos

Of all organizations and societies in Infernus's history, there is none no more infamous than the Kur'ru'skunal. Kur'ru'skunal cannot be translated properly in English, however, if looking at the Elder Language, it roughly translates to "The Prideful Sinners of Chaos."
Kur'ru'skunal in Ancient Scripture by bnichs
  The Kur'ru'skunal has appeared at various points in Infernus's history. The organization is best remembered for its actions during the Ancient Rule when the organization attempted and nearly succeeded in overthrowing Zan'nal'takriin. This was the pinnacle of the organization and they would reappear again during the Elder Rule." The group would change its name, rewriting its name in the Elder Script: Kur'ska.  
Kur'ska in Elder Script by bnichs
The organization sought to challenge and once again overthrow Zan'nal'takriin's ideals. However, rather than leading a violent, bloody, and open revolution, the organization decided to lurk within the shadows, becoming a shadowy organization that sought to kill or assassinate demons in power. In what the organization called "reclamation" the Kur'ska believed that by killing the demons that became too "orderly" they would reclaim the rightful seats that belonged to the "truthful and purity of chaos."   After its dissolution and defeat, the organization would remain, into modern times, a shell of its former self. The group would not reform until the Contemporary Rule, once more reforming in the Contemporary 4th Line Generation "Influence" as a small but powerful group that opposed the idea of allowing humans into demon and devil society. The group at this point, with history having taught of the group being synonymous with treason, would only attract criminals and Chaos Extremists, those who oppose the ideals and society of the Contemporary Lines.   In modern times the group is believed to be at its lowest point, operating underground and dealing with petty crimes and smuggling. However, history has taught that if the group truly wished to, it could become a force to be reckoned with once more.

Kur'ska in Modern Demon Script by bnichs

Formation

During the Ancient 8th Line Generation "Disruption," Zan'nal'takriin had decided to split each of the 7 Realms (which were as one continent at the time), into many individual kingdoms for the High Royal and Royal Families to rule over. Although many of the newer lines supported the change, the demons that had already been ruling over the lands opposed, believing Zan'nal'takriin would be stripping their power. Many of these opposing demons also took this as an insult to their pride, that they were not powerful enough to rule over such large lands.   As more Royal lines were created and more kingdoms founded to accommodate the newly formed lines, this reduced the size of the already existing kingdoms. The first-born of the 7 Primordial Ancients Zatan'na had enough of his kingdom being shrunk, no longer able to take the insult to his pride. In secret, Zatan'na recruited demons he deemed to be of high power, gathering those who shared his ideals.   During the Solar Year 40 IKV (Lunar Year 80 IKT), with Zatan'na secretly leading the Kur'ru'skunal, the organization openly declared their rebellion against Zan'nal'takriin. The rebellion was small and powerful but fell short on its goals due to the threat of war with Ri'ful'dan. While the Kur'ru'skunal attempted to overthrow Zan'nal'takriin's ideals, or at the very least revert them, they ultimately failed. However, although they failed in accomplishing this task, their actions would later influence many more demons after the 1st Great Holy War. The 1st Kur'ru'skunal would disband shortly before the 1st Great Holy War.

Nigh Destruction of Infernus

After the 1st Great Holy War, many royal lines went extinct, leaving lands without a ruler. Zan'nal'takriin decided to appoint new Royal Families, both new and old. Many demons from previous lines felt that this action was too hasty on Zan'nal'takriin's part, but in truth, due to their greed, many of the surviving Ancients wanted to reclaim what they believed was their land from a time ago. Once more there was a split of ideologies in Infernus.   In the Solar Year 41.20 IKV (Lunar Year 82.40 IKT), the Primordial Ancient Lu'kiinvir met with Zatan'na in secret. The two discussed the current situation in the realm and came to an agreement that Zan'nal'takriin was not only stripping the Ancients of their power but also becoming too aligned with Order. The two then reformed the Kur'ru'skunal after gaining support from the other 5 Primordial Ancients. It was then that the Kur'ru'skunal went public once more. Their goal was to challenge Zan'nal'takriin on the political stage, to reclaim what they believed was theirs. There were also those that opposed the Kur'ru'skunal and what they stood for, deciding to pledge loyalty to Zan'nal'takriin.   At first, the Kur'ru'skunal engaged in talks and debates, winning the support of many other Ancients. However, as time went on, the talks would end and the debates would become heated until violence broke out. After talks and debates failed, the organization turned to violence to achieve their goal.   Turning to violence, the organization sacked the great city of Berii'nii'zolv, causing the Kur'vol'fiil (supporters of Zan'nal'takriin) to declare war on the Kur'ru'skunal for their traitorous behavior. The Infernus Civil War would then begin. During the war, the organization gained 3/4 of Infernus's population, enough to almost overpower Zan'nal'takriin. Zan'nal'takriin was only able to fend off the Kur'ru'skunal by activating his reality rift, Chaos Supernova, which indiscriminately killed off 95% of the demons in Infernus.   The final great member, Zatan'na in a rage, performed a reality rift, a feat that is only supposed to be exclusive to deities and demi-gods. Zatan'na nearly ripped apart Infernus, splitting the main continent into 7. This act also killed many of surviving demons from Zan'nal'takriin's reality rift, Evii'iliz included.   Zatan'na was later beaten by Zan'nal'takriin and Zanii'vol, Ev'kiilos in the city of Zatana'na nal Zanal'krii'tal. The Kur'ru'skunal after a long and bloody war was finally defeated. The damage to the realm was great. The main continent was shattered into 7, the once flourishing lands now returned to the barren state they began in, and nearly every demon was dead.  

A Group in Secrecy

The Kur'ru'skunal would appear again in Elder 9th Line Generation "Cursed." The organization reformed once more, changing its name to Kur'ska, "Chaos Pure" in the Elder Language. The group, instead of acting in the open and participating in talks and debates, acted from the shadows. Rather than a group of open rebellion, the Kur'ska sought to kill high-ranking demons and have them replaced with their own members.   During this time, Zan'nal'takriin had left and secluded himself into an unknown location in Infernus to see what the Elders were capable of without his oversight. This allowed the Kur'ska to grow in power and size. The group was able to remain in secrecy for the majority of its Elder reform and managed to "reclaim" half of all seats of power within the realm. After the failed assassination of High King Asmodeus, the assassin Ish'folan Rin'zel was tortured and interrogated, revealing the organization.   Finding out of the organization and how big it had become, the 7 High Royal families and the Elder Council met in the city of Satan'na. Here they decided it best to find out of Zan'nal'takriin's location. After many years, the Elders managed to track down Zan'nal'takriin and told him of the Kur'ska and their actions.   The downfall of the Kur'ska was due to 2 primary factors. One factor was that history had taught of the organization's traitorous past. The other being Zan'nal'takriin able to overpower the organization with the help of the 7 High Royal families.   Although the Kur'ska had been defeated and disbanded, their actions would strike fear into both Zan'nal'takriin and the Elders, believing they were heading down the same path as the Ancients. Their saving grace came in the form of the 4th Great Holy War when Infernus was able to unite as one and fight against their oldest and greatest enemy.

A Shell of Their Former Glories

The Kur'ska reformed once more during the Contemporary 4th Line Generation "Influence." During this line, humans from the Mortal Plane/Realm had begun to live in and influence devil/demon society. The reformed Kur'ska opposed, declaring that allowing humans to both live and influence the realm was heresy against chaos. However, no one wanted anything to do with the Kur'ska, many denouncing the organization as heretics and Chaos Extremists.

The last great era of the Kur'ska occurred in Contemporary 8th Line, the current line, when the organization was officially declared as a terrorist organization after the raze of Galy. For 2 Solar Years, the Kur'ska terrorized the Zan'nil kii U'llis until their defeat by High King Avernus.
