Description
CINDERGROVE SPIRITS APPEAR when a lush, beautiful landscape is willfully burned to the ground and all trace of life is erased. Out of the ashes arises a single wrathful spirit, an undead amalgamation of the life that once filled the area. This spirit’s rage ignites a cloud fire that craves to consume civilization in its flames.
Cindergrove spirits arise at the edge of communities in which the verdant landscape was burned to make way for civilization. Druids are loath to see the land polluted, yet most also believe wraths of nature are aberrations that are an unwilling reaction by the land. A cindergrove spirit is not an inherently evil creature, but druids believe it represents a threat to all life and must be destroyed. Some corrupt creatures purposefully burn natural environments rich with life and beauty in an attempt to create these monstrosities.
