By default, Tark is not playable, but he may be enabled in custom scenarios in the map editor.

== Story ==
Tark is the last of the ancient line of {{Cn|Nix}} kings of [[Nixaar]]. This once great empire had dwindled as a result of some mysterious disease that caused many of their eggs to be empty. Over the years, the empire diminished to one last ancient city on one small rocky island populated by only a handful of nix. When this last remaining city came under siege by the [[Kreegan]]s, Tark tried to break the siege, but failed and was imprisoned in [[Eeofol]], while the rest of his kin were taken to [[Nighon]] as slaves. 

During their quest for the {{An|Horn of the Abyss}}, {{Hn|Bidley|0=}}, {{Hn|Jeremy|0=}} and {{Hn|Casmetra|0=}} heard about Tark and decided the [[nix]] could become powerful allies, were Tark freed. Through their raids on [[Eeofol]], they freed Tark.

Once freed, Tark felt an obligation to free the rest of his kin and rebuild their empire. He swims alone to [[Nighon]] where he takes advantage of the civil war raging there to single-handedly free every nix he could find. While most of the [[nix]] decided to follow him, some decided to go their own way and become mercenaries.

Now that his kin were free, Tark turned his thoughts back to restoring the [[Nixaar]] empire. Perhaps those pirates, widely-traveled as they are, know of a quiet place to settle--somewhere the [[nix]] can put down roots and slowly restore their civilization without fear of invaders. For this reason, Tark decided to join [[Bidley]] and his followers.

Tark rejoins [[Jeremy]] and [[Casmetra]] after [[Bidley]] was taken captive by {{Hn|Dargem|0=}}. When they catch up to [[Dargem]], [[Casmetra]] reveals her true colors and seizes the [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]] for herself. The ensuing struggle causes a magical explosion that disperses everyone across [[Enroth (planet)|Enroth]] and the [[Plane of Water]]. Tark, [[Jeremy]] and [[Bidley]] eventually manage to meet back up and work together to defeat [[Casmetra]] and reclaim the [[Horn of the Abyss (artifact)|Horn of the Abyss]]. With this, [[Bidley]] becomes the de-facto ruler of [[Regna]] and for the first time in centuries, the future of the [[nix]] looks bright.

{{user commentary|
Tark starts with 3 Nixes which is good in early game. Specializing in them and having [[Armorer]] as a second skill make the already sturdy nixes faster and even more durable. Also, he has [[Offense]] skill and as a [[Captain]] his [[attack]] will increase quickly, making him an excellent hero and more balanced than most other [[Captains]].
