Editing Pyreen

'''Pyreens''' are a non-playable demihuman race from the [[Dungeons & Dragons]] setting of [[Dark Sun]]. Born during the Rebirth at the start of the Green Age of Athas, they were created by the [[halflings|rhulisiti]] to be the defenders and protectors of Athas. As such, they are similar to 3.5 [[mongrelfolk]] in that they resemble a harmonious blending of the four main demihuman races - with the bodies of [[dwarf]]s, the ears of [[elf|elves]], the eyes of [[human]]s, and the faces of[[ halflings]] - whilst at the same time possessing seemingly infinite lifespans, supra-genius (19+) Intelligence, and the powers of high-leveled [[multiclassing]] [[psion]]-[[druid]]s.

You might be wondering how Athas ended up such a shithole with these guys around. Well, it's actually ironic: one Pyreen went screaming off the deep end and became convinced that the rhulisiti had made a huge mistake adapting themselves into different races, so he created defiling magic and organized a centuries-long, planet-ravaging genocidal campaign called the Cleansing Wars that wrecked the world as part of a mad plan to recreate the Blue Age. That fuckwit's name was [[Rajaat]], and it's all his fault.

So, the surviving pyreens dedicate themselves to undoing what can be done. Which isn't easy, because there's only so many of them, there's a very big, ruined world to fix, and although they can cast the Rejuvenate spell, which reverses the damage done by defiling, they can only do so once per month.
