The primordial and elemental creature known as Magmus is no demon, though he fights alongside the Hellbourne. Rather, he was drawn forth from the earth, as evil calls to evil and separate flames join to form an inferno. A holdover from an ancient, cataclysmic age of fire, Magmus dreams of returning Newerth to ash, lava, and cinder, and he wields his considerable might and magic in that terrible cause.
Magmus is capable of dealing huge amounts of Magic Damage in a large area-of-effect with Lava Surge and Eruption. However, because Eruption is channeled, a Portal Key is required to make the most out of the ability.
