AnvilCrasherLANDAERIALhumanoidfire

Jyotis are sometimes called "false phoenixes" (a term they find insulting) by the ignorant or willful. These avian humanoids are native to Creation's Forge, where they are the caretakers of the tree-sized, crystalline flowers within the Garden of Creation's Forge. These physical manifestations of mortal souls that ascended to divinity are protected and venerated by jyotis. They rarely leave this enigmatic realm and view visitors from other planes as stains on the purity of their home. Jyotis par
