Jogukadeno

Jogukadeno is a actively volcanic island in Emabaze that is famed for its hot springs. The island itself is relatively large but only a small portion of it is inhabitable, and thus there is only one large settlement present that also shares its name with the island.

Description
The main portion of Jogukadeno is uninhabitable due to volcanic activity and the resulting poisonous gasses. The town of Jogukadeno is found on the island's southern coast and is filled with hot springs.

History
Jogukadeno was one of the last islands to fall under the influence of the High Judge, and did not do so peacefully. The history of Jogukadeno is marked by periods of hostility toward the rest of Emabaze.

The First Mekeka Revolt (900 AA)
Not long after Jogukadeno was taken into the fold the High Judge installed Sasama Murote, a warrior instrumental in the mekeka's defeat, as a judge on the island, which caused uproar among the population as they demanded to be represented by one of their own. A short battle was waged in the streets of Jogukadeno town when the soldier and his retinue arrived which resulted in the judge being sieged inside of his home for months. The conflict only ended when Murote surrendered and left the town to head back to the court of the High Judge. In the interim the mekeka elected their own official to parlay with the High Judge when the time came.

Society
The majority of the population of Jogukadeno are of Mekeka descent. Mekeka are a monkey-like humanoid people who are native only to this island. They are however a relatively common sight in the rest of Emabaze.

Economy
Jogukadeno is heavily dependant on outside visitors who come to its shores to experience the unique hot springs that the island boasts.

Politics
The current judge of Jogukadeno as appointed by the High Judge is Nuba Muroshote, a mekeka. Jogukadeno traditionally only accepts judges who are of mekeka descent, due to historic tensions and revolts when past High Judges attempted to place non-mekeka judges there.

Religion
The makeka of Jogakadeno follow a similiar faith to the rest of Emabaze, however they revere a warrior god formed from the volcano rather than the moon. They are also more active in their reverence than the average Emabazen too, with an active priest class who work year round.
