The Scions of the Flame are warrior-priests and zealots who worship the Ever-Raging Flame with the centre of their worship in the Realm of Aqshy .[1a]

Beliefs

The Scions of the Flame are zealots and firebrands all, warrior-priests who seek to engulf the Mortal Realms in a cleansing inferno. They worship Chaos in the form of the Ever-Raging Flame - a malevolent embodiment of the Realm of Fire - believing both flesh and spirit are hardened and made greater in the searing crucible of its fury. The Scions believe that the fires ignited by the Everchosen's realm-spanning wars will grow to swallow all living things, and so they seek to pledge themselves to Archaon's cause and earn a place in the fiery apocalypse to come. The members of the cult hunt, kill and devour hearts of flame creatures such as magmavores and ash salamanders and may be transformed into living torches or incinerated from the inside out. Aqshian Realmstone, which they call Ragerock, is thought to be part of the living essence of the Ever-Raging Flame.[1b]

History

They have created many bronze fortress temples in their homeland of the Bright Mountains of northern Aspiria within which they gather realmstone, the lifeblood of their god.[1b]
