Mekrani

Mekrani is the Lord of the Mekra Forests and it's inhabitants. Mekra of the Western Forests is held as the most courageous Lord in Boreaville by the Star Children and after years of exposure to his weapon, he understood that in able to keep up with the Burning Horde, he will have to have a loyal creature capable of maintaining the forest at his disposal.

Thus, Mekrani was born - Years after infusing the Western Forest's beasts and Mekra to full power, he hailed to what once was Hjalarvale and took it over by force as the hunters of Hjulmarf would continue to hunt his precious beast kin.

He renamed the forests after his Lord, Mekra, and decided to claim the vale as his own.
