Thermax
A defender of Cryostorm
Born in Cryostorm, Thermax returns with Laurissa and reinforcements when Karok threatens the island. Karok fatally spears him in battle, leaving Laurissa grieving and Abel reflecting on the danger of being a hero. When the stars guiding Syrrus go out, he and the Hero initially believe Thermax was the Champion of Ice; later, the Hero wonders whether Abel holds that role instead.
