Atreia, the Lambent King, is the benevolent elemental lord of the Plane of Fire and patron of purifying fire and illumination.1 He was imprisoned for aeons in the Garnet Brand234 before being released in recent years.3
History
Atreia is one of the first creatures to have ever existed in the multiverse, and brought comforting warmth and light to the Plane of Fire. He often battled with Ymeri, his rival elemental lord of fire, in violent conflicts that left the other elemental planes scorched and damaged.3 Atreia also squabbled with fellow good elemental lords, and was blamed by Lysianassa alongside Ymeri for enabling arson when mortals began using the elements for evil.41
Ymeri and the other evil-aligned elemental lords eventually defeated their good counterparts and imprisoned them in gemstones for eons.43 The Lambent Court, a group of peris allied with Atreia, dispatched mortals in search of the Garnet Brand with the hopes of freeing Lord Atreia.5
Atreia does not know how or why he was freed from the Garnet Brand. He emerged weakened and largely forgotten, and while he seeks to recover his strength3 and defend himself from Ymeri in the now-dangerous Plane of Fire,6 he also pursues his unknown liberator.3 Atreia aims to purge the Plane of Fire of the evil that spread across it during his imprisonment.7
Relationships
His fellow freed elemental lord Ranginori, of the Plane of Air, hopes his winds can help fan and rejuvenate Atreia's flames.8
Appearance
Atreia resembles a three-headed, six-winged ibis with glowing eyes.9
Servants
Sootsoldiers serve both of the plane's elemental lords, but those who follow Atreia are decked in glowing embers and known as the Radiant Host, in contrast to Ymeri's charred servants.10
Church of Atreia
Worshipers and clergy
Even during his imprisionment, while he was blocked from providing divine magic, Atreia was still worshipped by some salamanders for his dominion over protection and life-giving fire. Mortal cults who exalt the discovery and purification of evil also continued to worship him.2
