The Tanmar are one of the most common and widespread Farfolk races. Being a Farfolk race, of course, any human with access to powerful enough psychedelics can become one. However, Tanmar are so populous because of their other origin. In an opposite process, the living flame constructs of hearth dragons can gain free will and transmute their forms into Tanmar themselves.

The Tanmar have existed as a race for a lot longer than humans or even Canids, but due to the initial dependence on other races for their existence, they are not classed as a Cardinal race. They wander in nomadic tribes across arid climates, which covers most of Koeya and a decent chunk of Remna as well. During dry seasons, it isn’t rare to see them travelling through generally wetter areas.

Tanmar are made out of living flame. Their structure is semi-amorphous, but roughly humanoid in a relaxed state. While they don’t perish from water unless totally submerged, they do avoid contact with it. Tanmar need to consume and burn flammable materials as food. They don’t burn hot enough to do this on the outside, and are actually only warm to the touch when relaxed. One would expect Tanmar to leave scorched trails in their wake, but this isn’t the case. Controlling their internal temperature is a tricky ordeal, especially when altering their form.
