TheGalakcentaur inhabitThousand Needles. Their founding leader, orKhan, was Khan Veng, the fifth of the alleged offspring ofZaetar andPrincess Theradras. They are currently ruled by no definitive Khan. The Galak hold no alliance with their brother tribes, but have been known to act both hostile and passive towards members of theAlliance andHorde.
History[]
Splithoof Crag.
Little is truly known about the Galak, apart from the name of their founding Khan. While brother tribes like theMagram andGelkis remained inDesolace when the centaur split into five tribes, the Galak at some point migrated into the canyons ofThousand Needles.
The reason for this has not been verified. However, several causes are likely. It is possible that both Veng and Kolk held a temporary alliance between their tribes and migrated together into theBarrens. Only later would the Galak break away and make their way into Thousand Needles. Were this the case, then it is possible the Galak played the aggressor against the nomadictauren prior to the founding ofThunder Bluff during theThird War. This theory would then account for the former Galak presence inMulgore.
World of Warcraft[]
This section concerns content related to the originalWorld of Warcraft.Prior to theCataclysm, the Galak maintained both a village and a camp in the canyon of Thousand Needles,Splithoof Crag andCamp E'thok. Splithoof was the larger of the two, housing much of the tribe’s population as well as their stronghold,Splithoof Hold. The Galak guarded one of the few remaining artifacts dating to the time of the centaur’s creation within their stronghold. The artifact is guarded both by physical strength and a magical flame which engulfed it. The only known way to douse this flame is with the water of anight elfmoonwell.
Camp E'thok was located in the northern portion of the canyon. With a Horde outpost nearby, the Galak were able to send assaults against caravans and traveling merchants. Further settlements were rumored to be found on theMulgore plains, and sightings of Galak scouts were reported.
Camp E'thok, flooded by theCataclysm.
