The Amalgamated were humans and creatures living in Dragonwilds:Ashenfall who had been imbued with elemental energy, resulting in unique physical powers and mutations. This was likely the result of humans living in close proximity to the region's Dragonwilds:Wild Anima being transformed like its indigenous faunaTemplate:CiteJournal. Many Amalgam-like creatures can still be seen wandering around to this day, including elementally-imbued sheep, cows, and chinchompas.
History
The Amalgamated humans began appearing sometime after Dragonwilds:Guthix and his followers established the village of Dragonwilds:Bramblemead Valley in the Dragonwilds:First Age. Jealousy sparked fierce prejudice against the Amalgamated immediately following their appearance. The Amalgamated were often seen as less than human, and were the subject of significant violence. The Dragonwilds:Wild Knights often risked their lives to sneak into towns and rescue Amalgamated from their persecution. However, the prejudice eventually culminated in a great Dragonwilds:schism where humans fought to purge Ashenfall of the Amalgamated.
Variations
Fire
The 'Fire-Touched' Amalgamated were said to have bodies which were so hot, they would 'cook' leather armourTemplate:CiteJournal. Their skin was said to resemble burning coals and embers, and they were capable of channeling fire through their weaponsTemplate:CiteJournal.
Air
It is said that Amalgamated imbued with the power of air could guide arrows mid-flightTemplate:CiteJournal.
Nature
Some Amalgamated possessed plant-like mutationsTemplate:CiteJournal, including leaves for hairTemplate:CiteJournal.
