Emberscale Alchemist

Kori is a young kobold unlike her kin—while others wrestle and brawl, she burns with questions. Hatched in the sprawling Emberscale Caverns, she trades claws for curiosity, pestering elders with endless *whys* until the word alone sends them fleeing. But in a society that values strength over study, her relentless pursuit of knowledge marks her as odd, even dangerous. When Kori stumbles upon the forbidden art of alchemy, she glimpses a path no kobold has walked before: one of potions, not punches, of formulas over fangs. Yet every step forward strains her ties to Clan Emberscale, and each discovery unveils deeper mysteries in the world’s system—its stats, its lore, its buried truths. As Kori balances her hunger for understanding with the expectations of her people, she must decide whether to conform or ignite a revolution.
