Baruk Kaah is the High Lord of the Living Land, and if you consider him a joke, he’ll smash your city just for spite and make you watch, then personally crush you in his bare hands. He may be a primitive lizard,  but that does not mean that he’s stupid. Just because he’s all about brute force doesn’t mean he isn’t surprisingly cunning too. He is second only to the Gaunt Man for the oldest High Lord, and there is a good reason. The reasons are littered all around the Living Land.
