God of the Flame

A god of fire, worshipped by many and the celebrated god of Mucaul's Fireworks Festival.

The God of the Flame is said to be conceived by the God of the Sky, when his lighting was struck a couple in the mids of passionate lovemaking. The Sky god's power produced a child, though seemingly ordinary, that would later awaken the hidden power bestowed on him. The boy was raised by his mortal parents until both were taken by a terrible sickness. The sorrow and loss felt by the boy unleashed his inner power and the anger at his parents' death set him ablaze. From this sadness the boy pursued a venerable life, working to help those around him and use his fire for their betterment. The boy trekked the world for many years growing into a man, accomplishing his goal. One day, while staying with a family near the Water's Gate a turbulent storm wreaked havoc on the ancient damn, breaching its towering walls, and threatening to floor the entire valley. With all his strength and determination to save the countless people who dwell within the valley the man let burn his inner flame and engulf sea. His fire glowed and burned, turning the entire sea to steam. The feat was so immense that it attracted the attention of the gods, including his divine father, who leant down and ascended him into godhood, taking his place with the other gods.

Worshipers of the God of the Flame are known to remove body hair.
