Vocan, Elemental Lord of Fire

Vocan is the Elemental Lord of Fire. He was created by Valazar during the First Era, and currently wanders the Elemental Plane of Fire.

Vocan is enemies with Anar.

Creation of Somara
Vocan was created by Valazar during the First Era. Vocan's most notable accomplishment is the creation of fire, one of the four primal elements.

During the First Era, he warred with his Elemental Lord brethren for influence over Somara. Fearing that their wars would eventually destroy or seriously damage the world, Neket attempted to impose order on the Lords. This failed, however, and they all split into two beings: the Lords, who were pushed to embody the chaotic side of their element, and the Elemental Goddesses, who embody the more orderly aspect. Helia is the ordered counterpart of Vocan, and the two have a tumultuous relationship, mostly due to Vocan's temper and brashness.

Appearance
When Vocan appears in mortal form, or on other planes of existence, he typically takes the appearance of a tall male humanoid of medium build, with dark red skin and light red hair. He has a penchant for fine clothing, often dressing in black or gray suits and remaining clean-shaven. His eyes are a pair of burning coals, and he typically covers them with a pair of dark glasses.

Personality
Vocan is brash, bold, and quick to anger. He's fairly arrogant, and likes people to think highly of him. Vocan is easily provoked by insults, which he typically counters with demonstrations of power. Vocan is also emotionally volatile, fluctuating rapidly between cool composure and burning rage, making him difficult to deal with.

Worship
Vocan does not have a large following among most mortals, being largely relegated to scattered clerics of the Nature Domain. The Efreeti and Fire Genasi have a slightly higher instance of worshipers, and a Temple of Vocan is located in the City of Brass. Fire Newts typically have a high reverence for Vocan, and worship him more than any other deity.

Some druids of the Circle of Wildfire and monks from the Way of the Four Elements have reverence for Vocan, due to their close association with his domain, but outright worship is usually reserved for other deities.
