He seems to prefer more subtle incantations (such as polymorph) and seems to enjoy wandering amidst humans and such, observing and planning. While evil and somewhat greedy, Cynder is also quite clever; this, combined with his unusual size and strength for one of his species, makes him both unique and highly dangerous. At this time, little is known of Cynder's origins, history, or motives. As of C.Y. 578, Cynder is missing in action after a battle with the demon lord Orcus within the Abyss.
