Magmin
An evil dwarven clan deep with the mountains use captive magmin to magically heat their forges. The clerics of the dwarven tribe have devised magic rune-carve adamantine collars to keep the magmin in line. When a magmin disobeys an order from the forgemaster, the collar becomes intensely cold. Using the heat generated by magmin-powered furnaces, the clan makes exquisitely crafted mithral and adamanite weapons and armor, perfect for taking up further enchantments. The clan makes this equipment available to local towns and mages throughout the area, none of which have any idea their new weapons and armor were made with slave labor.
In a nearby volcano, the tribe of magmin from which these slaves came is dying. The evil dwarves killed the younger magmin, captured all the healthy males, and left behind the females and elderly magmin, those beyond the point of reproduction. Without the males, the tribe is doomed.
In the villiage where the PCs are passing through/visiting, there is a massive fire. Warehouses and storage sheds are sure to be destroyed unless the PCs intervene. In the course of bringing the blazing inferno under control, the PCs encounter a band of magmin messengers, pleading for help. They have no idea they are the cause of the chaos around them, and are thankful for the warm reception the town seems to be offering.
