GENASI
 

Tracing their ancestry to the genies of the Elemental Planes, each genasi can tap into the power of one of the elements. Air, earth, fire, and water — these are the four pillars of the Material Plane and the four types of genasi. Some genasi are direct descendants of a genie, while others were born to non-genasi parents who lived near a place suffused by a genie’s magic.

Fire genasi are born of mortal bloodlines touched by the Elemental Plane of Fire, often tracing their heritage to efreet, powerful fire spirits, or ancient elemental pacts. Their skin may glow like embers, their hair flicker like flame, and their eyes burn with an inner light. Passionate and intense, they are known for strong emotions—quick to anger, but equally quick to laugh or love.

Many feel a restless heat within, driving them toward action, ambition, or adventure. Some struggle to control their temper, while others channel their inner fire into focused determination. Fire genasi often stand out in colder lands, both for their warmth and their striking appearance.
