  • A vague humanoid shape made of flame wreathed in smoke.
  • A human-sized whirlwind of smoke and ash.
  • A Theiwar alchemist with flaming hair, beard, and eyebrows. He wears a scintillating, multi-colored robe that constantly changes color over red and yellow clothes and wields a massive flaming sword. His voice is the roar of a forest fire, and his passions boil close to the surface. He leaves smoking bootprints wherever he walks.
Sindar the Alchemist, god of creative flame and natural power, sculpts fire into beautiful forms. He controls every flame, from the blazing sun to the low-burning wick, channeling and filtering the feral power into useful forms. He is by no means tame, however. Sindar sparks forest fires, burns children who play with candle flames, and allows small fires to spread and rage out of control in cities. In doing this he teaches mortals to respect fire. Though he desires to make fire useful, Sindar wishes even more to make it beautiful.   The Firemaster's companion is Edleth the Shrewd, goddess of wealth and commerce. They quarrel because Sindar is temperamental and artistic while Edleth is practical and opportunistic. Like the flames he controls, The Immolator flares quickly into fiery passion and smolders long in quiescence. Although his moods may seem chaotic, his passions respond to fluxes in nature. Seasonal changes, solstices, and equinoxes bring violent emotional outbursts from Sindar, a fact that deeply irritates his long-suffering consort.   The God of Flames cares little for mortal followers, though the beauty and power of fire draw many to him. If he happens to notice such hangers-on, he welcomes those who come sincerely and shuns those who seek only power. Only when his wife Edleth gains more followers, and thus more power, than he does The Alchemist actively seek priests. Gnomes especially love Sindar because of the steam power and smoke powder he provides, and dwarves esteem him as they do Reorx.  

Duties of the Priesthood

Priests of Sindar the Alchemist have a great challenge. They must shape fire into beautiful and useful forms, never losing control so that its destructive power is released. They primarily serve nature with their fire handling. The God of Flame occasionally grants small boons to priests who contain a destructive fire or use fire to promote the creative passions. He also looks favorably on those who disrupt Edleth's plans of industry and commerce.
