The Four Races: Part 3
The Phoenix
Phoenixes are the second most mysterious race on Terinta.
They are best known for being born out of fire or volcanoes, and for being
giant flaming birds. However this is just the tip of what a phoenix really is.
What is most unknown about them is that they are actually shapeshifters. They
can take the form of anyone, and like to do so when they meet new beings. Phoenixes
are masters at mind reading, and so as such they like to take the form of
family and friends they read in other’s minds. Despite this bizarre invasion of
privacy, phoenixes are very kind and understanding beings. They were the ones
who helped the fire dragon’s master their scorching breath, and they helped
humans by teaching them how to build and grow as a race. They were seen as
angels of mercy and peace to many, and their story of rebirth has influenced
and inspired all who know them. Phoenixes mostly live in seclusion, and are
complete pacifists. While they can fight, it is almost unheard of. The phoenix
also has a power known as Phoenix Flame. It is where the fiery essence of the
phoenix can enter the body of another and influence them to do things. However
because the essence of the phoenix is pure goodness, the person under the
influence of Phoenix Flame will only do kind and good things. Most phoenixes
use this ability to help teach or protect. The Phoenix is so mysterious that
many thought they were a myth created to explain unknown things about the
world, but the phoenix is very real…
