		They have slaughtered the Angaraks nearly to the point of extinction, their objective being to push Torak to the point where He will attempt to use the Orb in a way that it will not tolerate.
		Currently, one faction follows the generals, with a settlement at Mal Zeth; a second faction follows Urvon's Grolims and has a setlement at Mal Yaska; and a third is with Torak at Cthol Mishrak.
		The Angaraks have also invaded and subjugated Karanda, and begun the conversion of the Karands to the worship of Torak.

		In the center of this sea of Angaraks was borne the huge iron pavilion of one called Kal Torak, which means King and God.
		Early in the summer, the Angaraks deployed for the assault upon the city.
		The Angaraks began to fall like mown wheat and were overcome by confusion.

		Angaraks, on the other hand, would have problems with it since all of their religious texts make it clear that the only being that any Angarak should feel love for is Torak himself.
		Oh, not that it wasn't a poorly kept secret that everyone was aware of anyway, still, Angarak sensibilities must be bowed down to in the Imperial City and as such, their relationship would never be publicly acknowledged as more than 'good friends'.
		Angaraks did not condone same-sex relationships and so to the world at large they were merely 'good friends', but behind closed doors they were so very much more.

		While the Angaraks bent most of their efforts to the establishment of the Dalasian Protectorates, there was a wary, tentative peace.
		The sons of high-ranking Melcene bureaucrats were sent to Mal Zeth to live with the families of Angarak generals, and the generals' sons were sent to the imperial capital to be raised.
		They pragmatically accepted the forms of Angarak worship out of political expediency, but the Grolims were unable to command the abject submission to the Dragon God which had always characterized the Angaraks.

	World History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Belsambar, an Angarak, followed and at the last came Beldin, a hunchbacked dwarf with no sense of hygiene but an incredible mind.
		All the peoples moved with their Gods to their present locations, with the exception of the Angaraks, who nestled themselves around Cthol Mishrak, and the Alorns, who ranged across the north searching for a way to Mallorea to retrieve the Orb.
		When the Angaraks were nearly upon them Belgarath instructed Riva to raise the Orb over his head, and upon sighting its enemy the Orb flared up with a ferocity that nearly matched the one that destroyed Torak's face and Torak was turned back, and so the men escaped.

	Belgarion's World for Risus: Character Creation
		If a character is better at something than the racial Cliché might indicate, it can be broken out as a sort of "bonus dice Cliché." The total dice provided by both the racial and separate Clichés may not exceed four for a starting character, or six at any time.
		Angaraks get this for free as part of their racial Cliché until that time.
		However, if the subject has some Angarak gold already, he won't want to part with it, and he'll want more.

		Grolims are the hereditary priesthood of the Angaraks.
		Malloreans are the people of Mallorea in general, and also the Angarak population specifically.
		So impressed with these creatues was Torak, the Dragon-God of Angarak, that he made them his totem animal and did as much as he could to render them invincible.

	Gate of Annwyn - Powered by XMB 1.9.3 Nexus (Final)
		The flsmith searched throughout the house desperately, shouting for the child, quite forgetting that the Angarak girl surely could not decipher what he was shouting and quite likely shrank back in fear at the sound of a foreign tongue but he pushed on forward, relentlessly.
		After the fighting drew to a close, and the Angaraks have been driven off, his superiors gave him a small purse of gold coins and several medals to recognition of his valour in battle but these objects lie buried deep in his personal sea-chest untouched.
		Let others boast about their exploits and bravery, deep in his heart, Joram will always remember how he felt as he brought the tiny body of the Thullish child out from the burning wreckage that was her home and let out a grief-stricken cry as the city of Thull Mardu died before him.

	The Belgariad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After learning that Ctuchik, the evil Angarak sorcerer, has stolen the orb from Zedar, Garion and friends plan to go after him, but first take a detour to the Vale of Aldur.
		In a cave on the way, (which incidently is the cave in which the Gods stayed while creating the world and everything in it), Garion brings a dead colt (which he had helped birth minutes before) back to life.
		Torak, in his final--and most ultimately human--act, cries out, "Mother!" as he dies, referring the Earth herself as he believed that she was the only one to ever truly love him for who he was.

		After the death of Torak, he returned to the Vale of Aldur to be fostered by Polgara and Durnik, where he spent most of his time with his equine friend Horse.
		Renamed Eriond by UL, he became one of Garion's companions on the quest for his son, at the end of which he became the Child of Light for the final EVENT and replaced Torak as the God of the Angaraks.
		Third disciple of Torak and head of the Mallorean Grolims, Urvon is piebald, ugly, and completely mad, believing himself to be the New God of Angarak after Torak's death (the position eventually filled by Eriond).

		Chief among these concerns is the depiction of the Angaraks an "almond-eyed, untrustworthy, and strange people" who are the main antagonists of the series and embody many of the stereotypes that were used for people of Asian descent.
		It should be noted, however, that when it came to actually depicting the Angaraks (as opposed to the descriptions of them by other, admittedly biased, members of the cast) they showed a greater diversity and certainly didn't fulfill the promises of their being untrustworthy.
		It is certainly true that many of the races seem to have an underlying theme to them, but as in the real world, it is hardly their only defining characteristic.

		Therefore, when the land was divided, the Angaraks found themselves on one side of the new sea called the Sea of the East, while the people of the other Gods found themselves on the other.
		The "good guys", meaning the ones who are not Angaraks, were on the Western side, and the Angaraks were on the Eastern side.
		That's how Torak eventually was forced to use the Orb to split the continent, and this event is often referred to as "the cracking of the world", and the Alorn calendar counts its years from that day.

	Prophecy the MUD: Player Pages: Malloreans (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Malloreans are a diverse sect of the Angarak peoples worshipping Torak.
		Though the Mallorean Grolims are known to be some of the most fanatically loyal to Torak, the common worshipper often tends to pay lip service to the worship of the Dragon God.
		Though the Malloreans tend to lack the physical bulk of their Angarak cousins the Murgos and Thulls, they tend to be a bit more intelligent thus creating a powerful Grolim base.

		It took time for them to cross the ice - Dras appreciated Belgarath's idea of cheating the Angaraks by going across the sea instead of the Land-bridge, but kept it to himself.
		When Riva raised the Orb to destroy the Angaraks, and thus drove even Torak away, Dras looked at his younger brother with new respect.
		The matter about writing ravings of mad-people struck Dras as odd and weird, but he knew that it was from Aldur and not Belgarath, so he took it seriously.

	Belgariad Army Lists for 'Hordes of the Things'
		In fact, it is effectively two battles going on at once, with half the Western allies army on each bank of a river fighting a separate army of Angaraks (generic name for baddies), who, it turns out would rather fight each other but the goodies happen to be in the way.
		A third Angarak nation (Nadraks) actually came to the rescue of the West on the North bank and attacked the Malloreans so allowing the army to escape, but that complicates things too much.
		The only non-HOTT like thing about the battle is that the western sorcerors didn't do any offensive magic of their own but instead concentrated on nullifying the enemy, which can't really happen in HOTT unless you treat them as Clerics - which doesn't feel right, or make up some house rules.

	About The Belgariad...
		But only two of those seven are relevant to this story These two gods ruled over their separate races, the Alorns and the Angaraks.
		Kal Torak, the evil god with a love of violence and human sacrifice chose the Angaraks; they were already consorting with dragons and daemons at that time and had thus branded themselves outcasts to virtue.
		Aldur then created the Orb (Or Chrag Yaska as the Angaraks call it), a stone that held the very essence of magery, the stone had the ability to do anything it's master desired.

	Beldin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When Beldin was accepted as a disciple, he built an incredibly beautiful tower, almost as a way to make up for his own ugliness.
		Although he has an intense dislike for most Angaraks, he particularly hates Torak's last disciple Urvon.
		Urvon is incredibly scared of Beldin, as Beldin nurses a desire to rip out his guts with a white-hot hook, and finds enjoyment in frightening Uvron.

	David and Leigh Eddings
		For millennia they have been in conflict with the Angarak race who live to the East of the other peoples.
		The Angaraks worship the God Torak, who is not a particularly pleasant God, favouring such ideas as human sacrifice and his worshipper's right to global domination.
		Fortunately for the world, Torak has been in a coma for five centuries, ever since a Westerner struck him down in battle using the magical Orb of Aldur — an artefact with powers to match the Gods that was the original cause of the conflict between Torak and his fellow Gods.

		To Brand's surprise the Nadraks actually came to their side against Mallorean Angaraks.
		Because the fight was so tight, Brand had no time to settle his emotions, but he could not sleep even when others did.
		But the Angaraks suddenly stopped fighting, only to stare with blank eyes.

		My ancestors fought and died as Melcenes, and I'll not have you call me or my line simply "Malloreans." That aligns us closer to Torak and the Angaraks than I EVER want to be...
		Trade Routes, a few mangy Angarak bodyguards, and a bit better trading with the Angaraks, but that's were it ends.
		Didn't take Belgarath himself (if the old bat exists) to figure out it was the Angaraks, that they wanted my pa out of the way.

		The orb is so powerful that Aldur's brother Torak smites Aldur and steels the orb from him.
		When Torak will not return the orb, the peoples of the world attack him and his people, the Angaraks.
		Torak tries to use the orb to kill his attackers but the orb will not let him use it for evil and it burns off half his face.

		They go on the quest to find a strange and powerful object that has been stolen and must be recovered before the thief gives it to the most evil God of the Seven, Torak, God of the Angaraks.

		Gelane (the current heir) has joined the Bear-cult; the leader of the local cult chapter, however, turns out to be Chamdar (in disguise, of course--after all, he is an Angarak).

		Aldur was wroth with me. He went to our brothers and spoke to them falsely against me. And each of them came to me and spoke slightingly to me, commanding that I return to Aldur that which had twisted his soul and which I had taken to free him from the enchantment of it.
		The sky was flened with the smoke of their forges as their peoples beat out weapons of iron to spill the blood of my Angaraks upon the ground.
		All of Angarak rejoices in your courage and patriotism, and Torak himself is pleased with you." As if to emphasize his words, the Grolim's hand strayed to the hilt of the sacrificial knife sheathed at his belt.

		I know that Tolkien called men of the South and East "Swarthy" and "slant eyed", but one thing we are all aware of is that his book was written in the 30's/40's.
		Eddings, when I re-read it last year, ALSO says "swarthy" and, if I'm not mistaken, something along the lines of "slant or squint eyed" to describe the Murgos, and the other Angaraks.
		The majority of writers appear to be caucasian, thus write from their cultural perspective.
