Once a Kuoga tribal princess, missionaries had taught Kung's tribe to follow the ideals of love and peace.  Sadly, these teachings never made it to the ears of their rivals among the Jumuka'i tribe, who demanded that she be wed to their chief as an offering of peace. Her father would not hand her over to the savage Jumuka'i, so they beset her in the fields and took her by force. Months later she escaped her defilers and followed her rescuer--a pillar of light--into the mountains.

Little is known about this Australian Aborigine, save that he rose to prominence in his tribe by advocating tribal religion, claiming that the spirits of the Dreamtime had spoken to him and declared that the time had come to drive the white-skinned devils from his homeland and purify it for the natives of Australia.  After calling together a band of fellows from eighteen tribes, he and six cohorts descended into an unmarked network of caverns which shone with a pallid green luminescence.  One month later he returned alone, clothed only in dried blood and howling horrid prophesies.  He is now a deranged murderer, a cannibal and--worst of all--a charismatic leader who somehow makes the irrational seem plausible.
