flammas

Flammas are a type of elemental creature commonly found in fantasy settings, particularly within the *World of Warcraft* universe, though they appear in various other works of fiction. These beings are composed entirely of flame and are often depicted as sentient, intelligent manifestations of fire. Flammas are typically depicted as humanoid or semi-humanoid, with glowing, fiery bodies that emit heat and light. Their appearance can vary, ranging from ethereal and translucent to dense and smoldering, depending on the source material.

In *World of Warcraft*, flammas are associated with the elementals of fire and are often found in volcanic regions or areas of intense magical fire. They are generally neutral or benevolent beings, though they may become hostile if threatened or provoked. Flammas are sometimes used as mounts or companions by players, particularly in the game’s expansion packs, where they are introduced as a playable mount type. Their fiery nature makes them useful in combat, as they can inflict burn damage and create explosive effects.

Beyond *World of Warcraft*, flammas appear in other fantasy media, often serving as mystical or magical entities tied to fire magic. They may be summoned by spellcasters, used as guardians, or depicted as ancient, wise beings with deep connections to elemental forces. Their role in storytelling often reflects themes of destruction, purification, or transformation, depending on the narrative context.

Flammas are typically portrayed as resilient, capable of surviving in extreme heat and enduring prolonged exposure to fire without harm. Some depictions suggest they possess regenerative abilities, allowing them to recover quickly from injuries. Their cultural significance varies, but they are often seen as symbols of power, passion, or renewal in fantasy lore.
