A mysterious flame feared for its ability to confuse and lure humans to their deaths. Although visible to the eye, none can touch it, and not even the most violent storms can extinguish this flame. Rumor has it that non-human entities find comfort in its presence.

- "Ignis Fatuus" directly translates to "Fire Fool" in Latin. This could be a reference to the old saying that those who play with fire are sure to get burned.
