Fire Venereth
Fire Venereth are one of the four subraces of venereth found in Teneris; the others are moon, storm and snow venereth.1
Like every venereth, they are born with enigmatic writings covering their bodies, which fade within a few hours of birth and reappear only under certain conditions.2 A fire venereth carries markings that give off a faint fire-like glow, and these become visible when touched by fire.1
