[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 9218146, member: 57383"] How's this: [indent] [I][B]The Furnace of Rage.[/B][/I] There are ancient tales that a subterranean dwarven kingdom once trapped a fire archomental and built their capital atop its prison to harness its power and forge wonders. The archomental either lacks a name or the few dwarves who know it dare not risk invoking the primordial being's attention by uttering it. Modern dwarves are highly adverse to discussing the story. They obliquely refer to the creature as "The Incinerator" or Inferno. Secondary sources have conflicting versions of what happened. Some account say the kingdom fell to outside forces when weakened by disaster or misrule: one record says a greedy king tapped too much of the archomental's power for the furnace city's adamantine forges and set the city ablaze. Most of these tales say the archomental still slumbers in its fiery pit beneath the capital, and when its weakening bonds finally collapse it will awaken and cause catastrophe. Alternative accounts say the fire archomental escaped its prison and burned the dwarves' entire kingdom to ashes, even the stonework. A few tales say the freed archomental resented its captivity so fiercely that to this day it pursues a volcanic vendetta against anyone who summons and binds fire elementals. Not surprisingly, it particularly hates dwarves who build elemental-powered furnaces. There are rumors its vengeance is aided by a tiny sect of extremist druids who believe elemental binding is an abomination against nature.[/indent] It's a bit longer than I originally planned but I didn't want to just have a paragraph paraphrasing the Forgotten Realms history of Maegera the Fire Primordial. Having a few conflicting stories opens a range of possibilities for adventures involving a fire archomental. [/QUOTE]
