'''The Magma Vents''' were revealed to the world in 76 AM, when [[Alekmanhala]] freed himself from [[Lianthe|Lianthe's]] prison in the heart of the volcano found in [[Yhumara Lake]]. It is home to [[cherufe|cherufes]], [[vyurdrag]], [[araeca|the araeca]], and [[scorched|the scorched]]. | '''The Magma Vents''' were revealed to the modern world in 76 AM, when [[Alekmanhala]] freed himself from [[Lianthe|Lianthe's]] prison in the heart of the volcano found in [[Yhumara Lake]]. It is home to [[cherufe|cherufes]], [[vyurdrag]], [[araeca|the araeca]], and [[scorched|the scorched]]. As adventurers combed through the Vents, it quickly became clear that the Vents held more history and lore than could have been first imagined. | ||

*'''Jhaeros, the Guardian''' - Loose flames sporadically lick the air around this guardian of the araeca, wreathing his well-built frame in a magnificent crown of fiery feathers. A sharp beak pierces outward, curving into a shining point. Two large white eyes peers out from behind flaming lids, taking in the surrounding view. Massive wings, that spread to a wingspan of six feet, are tucked neatly besides each of his muscular arms. Flames twist and dance wildly down and around his long legs, ending abruptly at his vicious talons. | *'''Jhaeros, the Guardian''' - Loose flames sporadically lick the air around this guardian of the araeca, wreathing his well-built frame in a magnificent crown of fiery feathers.

*'''Altrop the Burner''' - This rather tall scorched woman stands nearly six feet in height, with features that could strike fear into her enemy's eyes. Her body is covered in a luminescent blue light, as her fire burns hot and close to her form. Pure-white eyes peer out from thick black eye-lashes, while a thin smile breaks upon her red lips. Red, orange, and yellow strands of hair cascade to her mid-back, each strand shimmering as if they were alight. Her body is draped in a fine black garment, the cloth treated to withstand her ever-burning flame. | |||
*''' Anastazy the Son''' - This rather tall and well-built scorched is clad in a set of filthy smithing garments. His leather apron is covered in ash and soot, while his once-white tunic is now brown from the grime of a forging weapon. His black slacks are decorated with several pockets, allowing him to hold several different hammers, tools, and knick-knacks that assist him in creating his items. His face is smeared in soot, making it difficult to pick out any real distinct features, however, at the base of his neck rests a tattoo that burns with an internal flame, its marking revealing his stature within the Core's hierarchy. | *''' Anastazy the Son''' - This rather tall and well-built scorched is clad in a set of filthy smithing garments.

* '''Zukaros the Fiery Heir''' - Possessing refined, almost effeminate features, this young scorched stands to an impressive height. His hair has been carefully coiffed, not a single strand out of place, and his skin is a robust mottling of brown and gold - catching the light in an attractive manner, the aureate inclusions of his oily flesh shimmers beautifully. A curious assortment of stone-worked jewelry adorns his hands, wrists, and neck, the blue crystalline structures veined in red. A diadem rests imperially upon his brow, its colouration stark when paired with his eyes of amber-red. Blackened armour more ornate than practical clads his form, its surface etched with esoteric scenes from history, each one illustrated beautifully and inset with gold. | * '''Zukaros the Fiery Heir''' - Possessing refined, almost effeminate features, this young scorched stands to an impressive height.

*'''The World | *'''[[World Forge|The World Forge]]''' - A crystalline forge found at the heart of the Vents, drawing from the Core's power to create weapons and armour of untold strength. It is rumored that there are similar forges placed throughout other planes of existence and that they can be activated to link up with each other to enhance their power, but their existence has never been proven. [[Avasyu]] granted Morthil the power to use the forge initially, but he passed along the duty to his son, Anastazy, who is now the primary operator of the forge and is responsible for keeping the weapons and tools of the people of the Vents sharpened and ready to protect the Core. | ||
