Hakkaris

Hakkaris is a fictional race from the online role-playing game World of Warcraft. They are a serpentine species native to the lost continent of Pandaria. Initially appearing as antagonists, the Hakkaris are encountered in the Serpent's Coil, a region within the Jade Forest zone.

The Hakkaris are characterized by their green scales, elongated bodies, and generally hostile demeanor towards the player characters and other Pandarian factions. Their society appears to be tribal and militaristic, with a focus on territorial defense and the subjugation of their enemies. They are skilled in both melee combat and the use of rudimentary weaponry.

Their origins and history within Pandaria are not extensively detailed, but they are presented as an ancient and somewhat primitive people. Their motivations often revolve around protecting their lands and maintaining their independence. Interactions with the Hakkaris typically involve combat encounters as players navigate through their territories to achieve various quest objectives. They are distinct from other Pandarian races like the Pandaren, Shado-Pan, or Mantid, representing a separate and often antagonistic faction within the continent's complex political landscape. While not a playable race, they serve as a notable enemy presence in the early zones of the Pandaria expansion.
