the Ashkindler Count
Named for a god-given son who found his calling not in prayer but in the roar of wildfire, and the lake of still, dark water that mirrors his burning heart.
Power
Cinderkindling — you can coax flames from cold ash by recalling the heat of a fire you once stood in, and the ash remembers your name, so it will never burn you unless you command it.
- Familiar
- A desert scorpion that burrows in cinders named Kohl
- Bloodline
- House Ashgrave
You are grinding a handful of dried rosemary into a bowl of ash, working the mixture with your thumb until it forms a paste. The smell is sharp and acrid. You will use it to mark your own brow before the next hunt, because the deer will catch your scent otherwise, and you enjoy the chase.
