Biography & Personality

Sargonnas is a deity associated with the domains of fire, heat, and vengeance. While his direct presence has not been manifested to the party, his influence is felt through his high priestess, Lyra Valstrath, and his followers who operate under the title of the Master of Ash.

According to Lyra, Sargonnas (as the Master of Ash) seeks to destroy his competition - specifically the goddess Auriel - to tip the cosmic scales of balance in his favour. He is described as being more powerful than can be imagined, a being who seeks total control and the fulfilment of his vengeance. His followers utilize fire-based weaponry, such as flame cannons and fiery whips, and are surrounded by an intense heat that reflects his divine domain.
