The followers and clerics were often lawful, without regard for good or evil. The Church's aims tended to revolve around the acquisition of land, power, and wealth. The church of Kossuth was rather hierarchical and mostly impersonal. It was said that the blue-white flames of the Pillar gave off a heat that made the rest of the plane seem chilly in comparison. Kossuth dwelled in the Crimson Pillar, a 10‑mile-wide (16‑kilometer) globe made of the primordial power of fire that floated over the Sea of Fire on the Elemental Plane of Fire.
The return of Bane pleased Kossuth, however the two deities seemed to agree on the importance of a strong religious hierarchy and had a common intolerance for the ephemeral and unpredictable nature of chaos. Moradin and Flandal Steelskin honored him for the heat of the forge, but he barely responded. The Firelord interacted very little with the other deities of Faerûn. He was watchful of the upstart archomental Imix, who was always trying to undermine his better but while Kossuth remained clearly the true master of the element of fire, the Grand Sultan of the Efreet was the only being on the plane who held even a slightly comparable level of power. Kossuth was vehemently opposed to Istishia and his clergy. Kossuth's doctrine of elemental supremacy virtually assured conflict with the other elemental lords. The Lord of Flames rarely intervened in affairs in the mortal world, spending most of his time embroiled in the intrigues of the Inner Planes. The supremely powerful elemental being known as Kossuth had lorded over fire since the earliest moments of the multiverse, though whether or not the contemporary Kossuth was the same primordial being or one in a long line of similarly named successors is a matter of much conjecture. His voice could be heard for hundreds of yards in every direction, a hissing whisper mixed with disturbing crackling and popping. Kossuth appeared as a red-hot column of awesome flame more than 60 feet (18 meters) high and 20 feet (6.1 meters) in diameter.
