Akthanakos is a Zarosian Mahjarrat and sworn enemy of Enakhra. The Ugthanki, camels of the deep desert, were trained to fight by Akthanakos, and as such are named after him. Both he and Enakhra disappeared shortly before the God Wars began, being locked in a conflict with each other in Enakhra's Temple. During Enakhra's Lament, the player's actions cause him to be freed from Enakhra's control and he and Enakhra head to The North. He also has small appearances in Ritual of the Mahjarrat, Koschei's Troubles, The World Wakes and Missing, Presumed Death.
