Ignatian
Hailing from the sun scorched land of Orovia, this group of Cre'tani embody the true nature of their creators more than the others of their race. Often red coloration and a heavy natural affinity with fire, these people are located around the large Volcano on the western side of the continent, far from the Storvan Cre'tani that lie on the eastern edge. Here they control the natural flame from their heritage here, and combat other dark forces that seek to push against their control of the area, while living in peace and prosperity the best they can.
