Cult of the Eternal Flame

The Cult of the Eternal Flame was a cult devoted to Imix and one of the four cults responsible of the Elemental Evil crisis.

Activities
The followers of the Eternal Flame cult worshipped the destructive power of fire in all its manifestations. They seek the power to burn away the "corruption" of both civilization and nature with volcanic eruptions, forest fires, heat waves, and droughts, creating a wasteland of ash and cinders ruled by fire alone. Eternal Flame cultists believed the world and all its peoples were wicked and malformed, and they considered it a sacred duty to "purify" everything around them by reducing their surroundings to smoking cinders. The Eternal Flame appealed to those drawn to destruction for its own sake. Creatures of elemental fire were most likely to take up this reckless philosophy; even non-intelligent fire monsters sense the reckless lust for destruction lurking in the hearts of fire cultists and consider Eternal Flame believers to be their allies.

Tactics and Philosophy
Fire cultists were impetuous, hot-tempered, and violent. They weren't mindless savages; their impetuousness also encompassed fiendish inventiveness and a drive to devise new tools for their mad cause. They were masters of fire and forge, taking captives to work in their infernal foundries. Fire cultists saw conquest and enslavement of the weak as necessary steps in bringing about the chaos they intended to unleash on the world.

History
The start of the modern earth cult was when Vanifer recovered one of the four elemental weapons crafted centuries before by the drow archmage and Elder Elemental Eye cultist Vizeran DeVir

All culminated in 1491 DR when at in the Fane of the Eye, under the ruined dwarven city of Tyar-Besil, the same time of the other three elemental cults the fire cultists tried to evoke Imix on Toril using members of a missing Mirabar diplomatic delegation and others captives as sacrifices. their efforts were however ruined by some adventurers.
