is a race of alien creatures originally featured in the 1974 tokusatsu TV series, Ultraman Leo(Urutoraman Reo, 1974). Alien Magma appeared in Episodes 1 and 30.
Subtitle: .
Ultraman Leo
Stats
His height is around 57 Meters tall. Weighing around 20,000 tons.
History
The Magma Aliens were a brutal alien race and the aliens who were responsible for the destruction of Leo, Astra, and Ron's home world of Nebula L77. One of the aliens was sent to Earth to conquer it, but would face Ultra Seven who had come to protect the planet. Using his bodyguard monsters, Red Gillas and Black Gillas, The trio brutalized Seven and soon the Ultra's leg was broken by Black Gillas in the process.
At that moment, Ultraman Leo arrived to assist Seven, seeking revenge against the alien for his home's destruction by their hands. Even with the tides of battle in favor of Magma and the Gillas Bros., Leo and Seven managed to hold off the trio. After being beaten down by Leo, Magma and the Gillas Bros retreated for the time being. Sometime after Tokyo is flooded with Tidal Waves, The Gillas Bros. were released again, this time to cause destruction in the flooded city. Ultraman Leo also returned, only to be beaten down by the two Gillas Bros until the Magma Alien returned as well to assist them. With the help of Ultra Willpower, Leo managed to decapitate the Gillas Bros's heads. With Magma being of little match to Leo's superior martial arts skills, Magma fled the scene, leaving Leo still bitter at the trouble they have caused.
Sometime later, another Alien Magma (or possibly the same one previously) appears, disturbing a peaceful monster named Rolan until he was driven away by Gen (Ultraman Leo's human form). Later after Rolan had taken human form and befriended several children by creating pinwheels, Magma returned, destroying some of her pinwheels until he was chased off again by Gen. However as Rolan tried to return home, Magma attacked her once more and nearly kills her until Ultraman Leo arrived himself to protect the kind monster. Again, Alien Magma was overpowered by Leo's skills and met his end after being impaling through the heart with one of Rolan's pinwheels.

In the World of Greyhawk campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game, Almor ( ) is a fictional location. In 586 CY King Lynwerd I of Nyrond seized the western half of Almor, placing it under his protection and creating the Almorian Protectorate, and appointing a governor to administer the new province.
History
In its beginning, Almor was a clerical fief of the Great Kingdom. As the Great Kingdom began to decline however, Almor began to exercise more independence. In 437 CY, during the Turmoil Between Crowns, Overking Ivid I was forced to recognize the independent palatinate status of several provinces, most notably Rel Astra, Medegia and Almor.
Almor was now reconstituted as the Prelacy of Almor, with its capital located at Chathold and ruled over by the Prelate of Almor, Kevont. As an independent realm, it joined with Onnwal, Irongate, Sunndi, Idee and the County of Urnst to form the Eastern Pact Alliance in 583 CY for mutual aid and protection against the aggression of the Great Kingdom. This alliance was undone by the advent of the Greyhawk Wars, when several of these realms ceased to exist as independent entities. Almor's independent existence as a sovereign realm ended in 586 CY, when Overking Ivid V attempted to force Almor back into his domain. The result was the total destruction of Chathold and the devastation of the lands of Almor.
At the end of the Greyhawk Wars, Nyrond looked upon its former ally with empathy and concern, but with a regard for its own self-interest as well. The newly installed king, Lynwerd I, immediately sent troops into the region and claimed that the western half of the former Prelacy was under his protection. Lynwerd created it the Almorian Protectorate and installed a governor to oversee its administration.
The Almorian Protectorate is faced with desolation of much of its lands and, like most of Nyrond severe poverty as well, forcing many otherwise honest folk into lawlessness. Exactly what the future may hold for this shattered realm is uncertain, but nations watch hungrily.
