Battle of Midway

Background

The Battle of Midway's causes lie in the longstanding hostility between the WickSick Headhunters and the whole of outsider society. The WickSicks had repeatedly raided all three of the outsider settlements in their quest to collect "heads" (kill) from outsiders. The most notable examples of these raids were the First Annual WickSick Winter Games: the Durham Headhunt Contest, the Derby Derby, and the particularly bloody Dork Cup. These conflicts killed hundreds of outsiders; the Dork Cup and Derby Derby are two of the deadliest conflicts in Shartak history. As a result, the various outsider clans universally regard the WickSick Headhunters as implacable foes.

The WickSick Headhunters, in addition to holding headhunts, also periodically hold secret rituals to reaffirm their dedication to their calling.
