Emberbeast

Emberbeast is a fictional creature that appears in the fantasy novel "The Obsidian Throne" by author Kaelen Vance. It is described as a large, quadrupedal beast with a body composed of molten rock and an internal glow that emanates heat. Its hide is said to be incredibly tough, able to withstand extreme temperatures and physical damage. Emberbeasts are often depicted as solitary creatures inhabiting volcanic regions and desolate wastelands, drawn to sources of heat and energy.

The creature's offensive capabilities are primarily its immense physical strength and the extreme heat it radiates. It can charge with devastating force and its touch can cause severe burns. Some lore suggests they can also expel streams of molten rock or superheated gas as a ranged attack. Despite their formidable nature, Emberbeasts are not inherently malicious, often acting out of instinct or territorial defense rather than any form of evil intent. Their diet is unknown, but it is speculated they subsist on mineral deposits or ambient geothermal energy. Encountering an Emberbeast is considered a perilous undertaking, requiring significant courage and specialized knowledge to survive.
