The blazing inferno, the devastating forest fire, the terrible blood-lust, and the love of the chaos of battle, these are the elements of Scorsheth. Once held at bay by the creativity of Luscient, Scorsheth now sits in his smoldering domain, brandishing Sunscald, reforged into a devastating two-handed blade, awaiting his chance to come forth, and rain destruction upon the world. He is most often depicted as a hulking warrior in blackened and burned armor, and wreathed in flames. Scorsheth has given up the warming rays of the sun, and bids it only to strike down in fury, drying the land, and weighing down on the world with murderous heat. The Burning God of War seeks battle at every turn, and many of his followers do the same. His priests preach to their flock to embrace the heat, and to endure, becoming strong in their resolve, through their suffering.
Most rituals surrounding Scorsheth involve a massive bonfire, his priests and followers surrounding it, the most devout often placing their hands within the flames. These brave individuals are highly revered among the faithful, and easily distinguished by their scarred fingers, and palms. Fire walking is another way many honor the Lord of Flames. Scorsheth is most often depicted as a hulking warrior in blackened and burned armor, and wreathed in flames.
His holy symbols are made most often of charred wood, or blackened steel, and depict a flaming disc, split in two by a sword. Scorsheth blesses the most devout clerics with symbols that burn brightly, occasionally even appearing to be actually in flames themselves in times of great fury.
The Lord of Flames is worshiped by Warriors, sorcerers, and daring rogues.
