Ingot, Emberkin of the Deep Flame
Born in molten sanctums; exiled for forging destruction itself.
Name: Ingot, Emberkin of the Deep Flame
Race: Salamander
Class/Role: Priest‑Smith / Exiled Elemental Artificer
Appearance: Ingot is tall and serpentine, with scarlet-scaled skin that crackles with inner emberlight. Their eyes glow deep orange, reflecting volcanic fire. They wear a tattered volcanic mantle threaded with magma veins and ornate smith’s tools strapped across a frame of basalt and brass. Their hands end in glowing, claw‐like smithing tools that never cool. Around their neck is a pendant made from a cooling lava droplet. Smoke drifts from their nostrils and their footsteps hiss as they touch ground.
Backstory
Choosing to craft a blade that could “burn time itself,” Ingot was cast out by the Elder Flame Council in the elemental Plane of Fire. They arrived in the material world carrying their fiery masterpiece and a vision of forging reality anew. Hunted by elemental agents and mortal cults alike, Ingot now dwells in volcanic caverns, offering their talents to emboldened mortals — for a price. Their work is powerful, unstable, and dangerous — like firebound ambition given flesh.
