The ak'chazar is a subspecies of rakshasa in Dungeons & Dragons. They typically resemble anthropomorphic white tigers and are considerably gaunt in comparison to other rakshasa. Ak'chazars, like their common brethren, are highly intelligent and adept at magic. In particular, ak'chazars favour necromancy and mind-bending spells that will allow them to dominate others.
Ak'chazars are insidious schemers, devising cunning plots to gain power and influence over others. Such schemes may involve recruiting criminals to do their dirty work or manipulating important figures through blackmail, bribery or threats. As necromancers, ak'chazars favoured operating in any environment that promised a large supply of corpses, allowing them to raise whole armies of servants or cannon fodder to carry out whatever tasks were required.
