Shoka Defenders guarding the Shoka Sanctuary.
The Shoka are an aggressive aquatic race that live in the Silent Sea in Primal World. They enslave aquatic animals and usually fight on the backs of enormous aquatic aberrations. The Shoka have fought against the Riptide for a long time and will mercilessly attack anyone who dares to dive into the Silent Sea. The Shoka King is known to conspire with Caeya, the former leader of the Nightspikes who became a dangerous Wraith Lord after his defeat by the Tideborn.
The Shoka play a major role in the Primal World quest lines for Shifting Sky and Twilight Sky and are the primary antagonists players have to fight against after Tyrant Prince Mushi's defeat. The players have to form an alliance with the races and tribes of the Primal World to help Emperor Alexander and the Riptide fight against the Shoka and stop their dangerous schemes.
The events during the war with the Shoka will tear open a portal leading to the Uncharted Paradise, which was thought to have been lost in the great calamity that preceded the creation of Perfect World. The Shoka also appear in the Ten-Dimensional Domain and fight against players.
