Description
Ashenbrils make their homes nestled in the surrounding crater, billowing ash cloud, and river of magma of many volcanoes. These muscular serpentine ash and smoke elementals prey upon any that dare to step too close to their dens. Each ashenbril has has two sets of serrated hardened glass like teeth separated by two mouths with three eyes located evenly spaced on their jaw and a bent nose with smokey tendrils waving about located near the back of for the lack there of a skull. They also have two tendrils at either side that are solely used for "Smoke Scaling" or the art of climbing and swimming around large clouds of smoke. At the end of its body is a small dense sack of a crimson viscous fluid it uses as its digestive system. Once an ashenbril has absorbed all it can from its digested meal, it will often detach the sac and leave it near or around open passes through the volcanic region. Unfortunate travelers who happen across these sacs mistaken them for large deposits of precious metals and attempt to harvest them only to be over taken by a large explosion of ash and bone. Many succumb to their injuries leading to a slow painful end by the jaws of an ashenbril waiting for them to fall from heat exhaustion and blood loss.
