Strong, brave and merciless are the three words that describe the people of Baralo and while it’s true others words may describe them one thing is for sure they are never to be taken lightly. Warriors, people of rage and sorrow it is this large range of emotion that make them more charismatic and ruthless than any other race in the galaxy.
The Axis have always been a people who took what they wanted from the universe and believed it to be theirs no matter who had it first and until the Brigsumal attack on Baralo it had been that way from day one. When their planet lay in ruin before their feet rage gave way to sorrow and sorrow gave way to despair their unmatched will now destroyed all feared the end was in sight for their people.
“Blessed is Baralo for the planets cries, heard by the ears of the great mother and with her wisdom the Axis were reborn” – Cira Andose, Visulan holy woman speaking on the rebirth of the Axis.

Years pass and the Axis build their most holy site atop the cliffs of the mountain known as Hand of Cala were children go to study the arts of mind and body and focus their energies and will to rid themselves to hate and pain.
