Volcanic ash (VA) is a reagent that is in use on Pagan.
Uses and History[edit]
Pagan[edit]
This ash is produced during a volcanic eruption. It is not to be confused with sulfurous ash as found in Britannia. The Sorcerers do use the volcanic ash as a reagent to invoke fire within one of their spells. Due to the fact that Morgaelin was a massive volcano, it is rich in deposits of ash that can be harvested without much hassle for spellcasting purposes.
Lore[edit]
