Rorakan (ROAR-uh-kawn), often called Hahun (HAW-hoon) by Jihuthis, is a deity worshiped in Aluray, mainly by gnolls and goblinoids. He is associated with savagery, brutality, barbarism, and the wilds.

Rorakan calls on his followers to devour and dominate, to crush their enemies under their boot heel, and to take and plunder and consume and indulge in all vices. His hymns are war cries, his baptism is in blood, and his holy places are anywhere screams are heard.

Rorakan is believed to have sided with Zehir in the Red Terror.

Worshipers

Rorakan is not picky about who follows him, only that they do as he commands: fight and kill and take. He is worshiped by many Seuvian goblinoids. His strongest support comes from gnolls, who view him as their patron deity; many of them consider him a gnoll-god, their creator, and the very first gnoll. He is even worshiped by some Jihuthis, who depict him not as a beast-man but as a man wearing the skin of a beast.

Depiction

Rorakan is often depicted as an upright wolf-man. Gnolls, however, describe him as a gnoll. Human Jihuthis depict him as a man wearing an animal pelt (usually a wolf's).
