Appearance

Once a Heat Giant, now a Titan whose flames have been inverted. Their body is composed of frozen ash and ember-less coal, with veins of absolute zero running through their form. They move with unexpected grace, leaving trails of frost and extinct cinders.

Created when the Surtur attempts to burn the Shepherd

Stats (Threat to the World):

• Pyroclastic Waltz: The Ash Dancer's movements create waves of freezing ash that steal warmth. Anyone damaged by them cannot heal naturally until they find a source of true warmth.
• Memory of Flame: They remember what it was like to burn. This stat can only be damaged by showing them something genuinely new or creating real fire in their presence.
• The Last Dance: When this stat is damaged, the Ash Dancer performs one final beautiful dance, dealing area damage as they scatter into frozen ash, only to reform elsewhere later.

Personality

The Ash Dancer speaks in metaphors of extinguished flames and dead hearths. They were the first to accept the Shepherd's vision, understanding that even eternal flames must eventually die.
