Homebrew Furflame Species Details

Physical Description

Furflames are big goat-like creatures, which are around the same size as human children in childhood, but rapidly grow to surpass their height by adulthood. They have brilliant white fur, with some having black marks around their face and eyes, though a few have grey or even black fur, with white marks. They possess white horns on top of their heads and large fluffy ears on the sides of them.

History

Furflames came into existence around the same time that humanity had, though their exact origin was different; they were said to be spawned directly from the dreams of humanity manifesting into a reality. Furflames, however, had sparked what humanity needed to survive; Fire. Unlike humanity, which eventually grew tired of fire and merely used it as a resource, the furflames were obsessed with it, with many saying pyromancy for humanoids being discovered by them. The furflames, with pyromancy being a tool at their disposal, used their magic for both good and evil, causing a war between themselves and other humanoids. The furflames had lost this war, after years of fighting, and retreated into a more reclusive society.

Society

The society of the furflames relies on the race's natural affinity for fire and pyromancy, as well as their tendency to be recluses from others. Their cities are typically hidden from others, making their homes in other planes-typically the Plane of Fire-the Underdark, deep forests, or even inside of mountains. Their society relies on their higher ups-the oracles, dreammancers, and royalty-seeing into the future, allowing them to avoid confrontation whenever possible.

Relationships

Furflames are typically not even remembered by most humanoid races, especially the youngest of them, however, humans have passed down stories of their kind, demonizing them as demonic goats of the abyss. Due to this, they are typically chased out of towns or even killed on sight by humans, though some races such as tieflings and half-orcs are more understanding of them and willing to give them a chance.

Furflame Names

Furflame names are typically anagrams or distortions on the Common language, as their kind finds the tongue a lot less interesting to speak compared to Ignan, such as Meamoree as a distortion of memory. Both first and last names follow this trend.
