Name: Thatix
Gender: Identifies as female
Font color: Red
Race: Literal fireflies with a hive mind.
Abilities: Extensive pyrokinesis.
Description: Thatix is a swarm of one hundred burning fireflies. Thatix typically shapes herself into a rough approximation of her previous self, though very little detail is conveyed. With careful examination you might able to make out that Thatix had long hair and wore a long dress, or potentially a cloak. Thatix was not very mentally stable when she was alive. Her death and rebirth as a swarm of fireflies only made her things worse. She is extremely unstable. She speaks in half-riddles and non-sequiturs, becoming very angry over seemingly insignificant things.
Biography: Thatix was a dark sorceress who craved dominion over the lands of Itharia. However the council of Elders refused to accept her. She began amassing forces to bring an end to the council. Once she had enough force backing her up she made her move and triggered a war that raged the land. Some places were left barren, arid, empty, their magic essence drained to power the bitter war. Other places, magical battlegrounds were left soaked with magical fallout that leaked into the environment. It was at the climactic battle of the war, deep in the woods of Mithaia that Thatix was finally defeated. Unfortunately the council of elders were not quite as thorough as they might have been. Though she died her dark essence remained and infected the land where she died. Though little came of it at first the magical fallout eventually corrupted a swarm of fireflies, imbuing them with the mind of the sorceress. As the fireflies blazed into literal flames Thatix was reborn.

SpoilerChanged because it was drawn to my attention that Schazer wanted to do a very similar character who would likely be better because she is a better writer. This character was generated via a twenty questions thing.
