Fire Ant

A species of Ant mamono that has the ability to breathe fire. They can control the intensity of the flames,from hot enough to melt stone to just enough to heat a stone for warming a room. They are stubborn never giving an inch when they believe they are right, even if they are wrong. They prefer avoiding fights that are unnecessary but are ferocious fighters when friends and family are threatened. They have the ability to just release flammable gas which can be ignited to cause more damage than their fire breath. They fill earthen ware with the gas to create bombs that can be thrown after the wick is ignited, depending on the amount of gas inside it can either provide a means to escape or cause major damage. Most Fire Ants are blacksmiths or charcoal makers, but a few run inns/taverns or farm. They leave the village when they are old enough to be apprenticed to a blacksmith.For this reason they are trained to protect themselves, each colony teaches different styles of fighting.
