"Despite its fierce appearance and size, trifold the height of a grown man, Lumai's are wise and benign creatures, guardians and teachers for all those who seeked their help. Sapientas are five sacred races of creatures that guard the elements, the Lumai's duty being fire. With their tails they ignite fires, fires whose black circles can still be seen on the old battlefield where they raised protective walls of magma around those in need. A Lumai has a full circular reach around its body with the tip of its tail, though will not use it to spill blood. Lumai's, like all other Sapientas, are said to be immortal, it remains unknown where they came from and if they do have offspring or not. In the last war their lines were infiltraded and betrayed, and no Lumai has ever been seen since again."
A race of creatures I made for a novel I am writing on. This is my first try here, ask if you have question to this creature :)
