History
In 1161 DR under suspicious circumstances the Karanoks became the rulers of Luthcheq. Initially they ruled in a typical Chessentan style. In 1324 DR however Luthceq was defeated in a war against Mordulkin and the Karanoks blamed the wizards spies of Mordulkin, starting their crusade against magic. In 1346 DR from nowhere Entropy manifested itself inside the House Karanok's mansion killing a wizard they were torturing. The Karanoks saw this as a omen, began worshipping Entropy. In 1370 DR Tiamat started grant clerical powers to the Karanoks in order to manipulated them.

After the Spellplague Ishal Karanok managed to become the ruler of all Chessenta gaining the population's trust repelling the armies of aberrations sent by the Abolethic Sovereignty in 1399 DR.

In 1479 DR the ruler Shala Karanok was ousted by power for a brief time by the returned Tchazzar but after the Battle of Luthcheq she regained the control over the city.
