Utuka /yʊtɑk'ɑ/ (bukkean: Yootokoh) are a people who live west to the Quoon river, in the cold plains and forests of northern Tarnaria. They are known for their extreme watchfulness, to the point of paranoia. Their culture revolves around the idea of defending one's home and standing guard at night.

Utuka are not Xaewoon followers and instead worship Indifferent Gods.

Etymology

Utuka means "small hammer" in Bukk.

Origins

Utuka are believed to be closely related to the Oaleed and have probably separated into a new tribe at the end of the first revolution. Oaleed share the tradition of guarding, which seems to be grounded in Oaleed mythology.

Language

Utuka have a very basic written language, but a very complex spoken language, known as Mae Hureed.
