Carrsack

Carrsack

Carrsack — titled the Overfather, addressed as "Keeper of the Faith" in Threetrees — is the bullywug head shaman and political-religious leader of the The Suh'Skel, the Shadow Scale insurrection. He is, in the current era, one of the six Mirelords operating from the Cathedral Barge settlement in the sacred mire.

Character and Ideology

Carrsack is a true believer. The Suh'Skel's vision — complete removal of imperial and human influence from the Farseas, replaced with native sovereignty — is not, for Carrsack, a political position: it is a religious conviction. He serves as both the movement's tactical voice and its spiritual anchor, combining the authority of a shaman with the title of political leader.

He rejected Caduca Aris's peaceful diplomatic overtures, issuing instead an ultimatum: recognize the Suh'Skel and the native peoples as Cormyrean citizens with full rights, or face the consequences. When the answer was unsatisfactory, he threatened genocide.

The Threetrees Overthrow

Carrsack led or directed the Suh'Skel's overthrow of Threetrees' governing council in approximately 1505 DR — the pivotal act of the insurrection. The council's displacement and the climactic confrontation at the Triple-Gallows Tree established the Suh'Skel as the dominant military force in the city.

Mirelord Status

In the civil war's aftermath, Carrsack operates from the Cathedral Barge — a floating sacred settlement that serves as both the Suh'Skel's political base and its religious center. As a Mirelord, he threatens the stability of all other Mirelords and the swamp pantheon itself: his agenda is not coexistence but replacement.
