Details

Height: 2 meters.

Length: 3 meters.

Appearance: Hespa is about the size of a Clydesdale horse. This equine creature is covered from head to toe in rippling muscle and sturdy scales. Its eyes shine like deep pools of magma. Hespa is covered in varying shades of red and orange, accented with charcoal black, in a way that mirrors the molten rock it was birthed from. Symbols on its chest, presumably formed by magic, add to his mythical sense of mystique. Its claws are razor-sharp, sometimes leaving smoldering earth where he has stepped, and his sharp features give him a very fierce aura.

Description: Hespa is born from the magma within a volcano. In its most powerful state, Hespa causes drought and volcanic eruptions with every step that it takes. The droughts it can cause allow it to evaporate water, while the volcanic eruptions it can summon enable it to create land. It sleeps underground in large magma chambers. If it encounters its rival, Hastura, they will engage in a cataclysmic battle. It does this due to being unable to contain its power. Hespa is said to represent the passion of magma and prefers to remain in volcanic regions due to being birthed there.

Personality: Hespa is a crude, arrogant, short-tempered, and aggressive creature. Despite being categorized as a Sillasa, it tends to come off as unheroic, if not downright villainous. In short, Hespa is a hotheaded, impetuous, and confrontational creature. Quick to violently respond to the slightest provocation.

Lore: It is said that long ago, before Fiore entered the age of kingdoms, Hespa and Hestura clashed with each other in devastating battles resulting in the creation of what is now known as the Marchen Mountains and Fieros Girdle. Not much grew in these regions and as the battles continued, it started to affect the local flora and fauna of Fiore. This resulted in Hasgaia getting angered and intervening. Unable to continue their clashes with Hasgaia constantly sabotaging them, they returned to their respective regions to slumber. The three Sillasa represent separate terrains, Hestura having dominion over the cold, Hespa over the volcanic, and Hasgaia over nature.

Requirements: Hespa
Type: Supplementary
Element: None
Range: -
Cooldown: None
Duration: Sustain
Effect: While Hespa is perfectly capable of flying on its own, it has a bit more trouble carrying someone on its back. Should the user wish to ride Hespa in topics, the Mounted Flight move must be used. Since this uses Hespa's innate abilities, it cannot be canceled.
Name: Hot Wave
Rank: A
Mana Cost: 200
Requirements: Hespa
Type: Debuff (Intelligence)
Element: Fire
Range: 10 Meters Radius
Cooldown: Once per topic
Duration: Sustain
Effect: Hespa flaps its wings and releases a hot wave of air around itself that has debilitating effects on those within its range. Everyone getting caught within the radius of the hot air wave receives a Debuff to their Intelligence as long as Hespa sustains it. Should multiple targets get affected by Hot Wave, Hespa must pay mana per affected target to sustain it. Hot Wave does not affect the partner if Mounted Flight is used.

Element: Fire
Range: 25 Meters

Name: Magma Devastation
Rank: S
Mana Cost: 10% of the companion's base manapool
Requirements: Hespa
Type: Supplementary / Domain
Element: Fire
Range: Topic
Cooldown: Once per topic
Duration: Sustain
Effect: Hespa lets out a piercing screech which changes the terrain in the topic. The ground then rumbles and trembles before it starts to crumble in the topic. Cracks begin to form in the ground through which magma can be seen moving underneath the crust. Random magma spews out of the ground, however, this is merely for cosmetic purposes and does not happen underneath users. While Magma Devastation is sustained, Fire-type spells have an increased range of 20 meters and an increased speed of 10 meters per second. This applies to personal spells and item spells of everyone in the topic.
