Flameborn
Humanoid species that are made of different colors of fire.
They have similar intelligence and behaviors to that of humans, but are generally more "hot headed". They work alongside humans and usually take jobs in trades.
They can control how the fire from their body affects what touches them, so they can wear clothes without burning them, though they have a very high internal temperature. When they lose their temper, they can lose control of this ability and burn things around them, hence why many are discriminated against in communities of wealthy individuals, and why many are not in powerful positions.
Their "brain" is the flame core located in the head, without it they would die.
The more accomplished a flameborn is, the brighter their core burns.
