Salamandra

Salamandra are type of Homunculus, artificially created life, made by infusing a shell with divine energy of Nairyf's blood and wyvern blood. Given the overwhelming danger of even approaching Nairyf's blood, they are risky to create, but one only needs a small amount.

Out of all Homunculi, Salamandra are the most tolerated in the eyes of the law. However, Karaten influence still discourages the practice of Homunculus crafting, and it would not be a strange occurrence if a known Homunculus crafter's workshop were burned down under 'mysterious circumstances' in a town operating with a Mage's Guild.

Development

Acquiring the blood of Nairyf requires one to be sufficiently prepared; if one were to scale the difficult from one to ten, the result would be easily between a seven and an eight. Getting close to the Salamander's blood is incredibly dangerous, but it is possible if you have appropriate magical protections and do not linger very long. It is speculated that other dead gods' blood can be used as a means to create different kinds of Homunculi, but the means would be different, as well as the potency of the blood would be less.

The resulting homunculus takes on an appearance similar to dragon-like Serpentkind, typically with a thick, red or black, lizard-like tail protruding from the base of their spine. Similarly colored thin horns portrude from the sides of their head upwards, stopping just above the head. They also have elongated ears, similar to elves.

Salamandra have profound pyrokinesis abilities, capable of igniting intense flames near them at will, similar to magic. The fire they conjure this way is extremely dangerous, capable of stripping magical protections or taking on other unique properties.
