Description

Akama, the kind but hardened elder sage of the Broken draenei, managed to get his race into hiding before the orcs (corrupted by a demonic bloodlust) wiped out every last one of them. After the cataclysm and the shattering of Draenor, Akama and his aging survivors were forced into the open where he was fighting a losing battle against the pit lord Magtheridon and his army of demons and fel orcs.

Akama found himself aided by Kael'thas and Lady Vashj, a Blood Elf and a naga who had come from Azeroth to escape the clutches of human captors. Hoping to gain allies in the fight against Magtheridon, Kael and Vashj destroyed the base of fel orcs which had been raiding Akama's makeshift outpost. Akama pledged his loyalty to Illidan, and aided them by attacking a larger orcish base, keeping them occupied and away from Kael and Illidan as they closed the gates which were supplying constant reinforcements to Magtheridon.

After that battle, the time had come to lay siege to Magtheridon's Black Citadel itself.

Akama pledged allegiance to Illidan, craving vengeance on the orcs and the demons that had corrupted them for the slaughter of his race. Using his stealth abilities, Akama and a band of his followers snuck into the Black Citadel and destroyed the magical energy generators which sustained the defenses of the Citadel, and then, he aided Illidan, Kael, and Vashj in the final attack on Magtheridon himself.

When Kil'jaeden appeared and ordered Illidan to destroy the Frozen Throne, Illidan, Kael, and Vashj went as ordered, and Akama remained in Outland to guard their holdings.

Template:Spoiler Akama is the leader of the Ashtongue Deathsworn faction. He is found in front of Maiev Shadowsong's cell in the Warden's Cage in Shadowmoon Valley. After an introductory quest, in which players have to prove they are not allied with Illidan, they are sent to talk to him and he explains how it is best for his people to continue to serve Illidan until certain omens are fulfilled. He then gives a quest to speak to Sage Udalo, held prisoner in The Arcatraz.

On returning from The Arcatraz, Akama gives another quest to retrieve the Heart of Fury, one of the shards of the ata'mal crystal, from the Ata'mal Terrace of the Black Temple. When this is done, he sends the party to the naaru A'dal in Shattrath City.

Akama "Plays Along"

After completing the quest entitled "Akama", a small scripted event between Akama and the Dreadlord Vagath - one of Illidan's demon lieutenants - occurs. Vagath arrives with two imp minions, and yells out:

Vagath: Mortals, here? What is the meaning of this, pathetic Broken!

Akama whispers to the player: Have no fear, <race>. Just play along. He then "kills" the player, and tries to reassure Vagath.

Akama: A mere nuisance, I assure you! Tell the Master his prisoner will not escape while Akama and his Deathsworn watch over her.

Vagath: You'd do well not to toy with me, Akama. Illidan has given me strict orders to keep watch on the Warden. If I find out you are hiding anything from me, I will crush you with my bare hands!

Vagath then leaves, and Akama proceeds to "resurrect" the player.

Akama: Forgive my harsh methods, but the Betrayer cannot learn of the truth. My secret must be kept at all costs!

In a cell behind Akama, Maiev Shadowsong speaks up.

Maiev: If we truly desire the same thing, Akama, then release me! If Illidan is to die, it shall be by my hand!

Akama: In due time, Maiev. I've spent years planning to make my move - I can't afford to put my plans in peril by tipping my hand too soon.

Maiev: Curse you, Akama! I am not a pawn in your game...my will is my own. When I unleash my wrath upon Illidan it will have nothing to do with your foolish scheme!

Note

Akama

Akama in Warcraft III

His name is possibly a pun, draenei in WC3 fought with sickle-like weapons called kamas (so he used A kama).
