The mages of fire are of desire, as these have always used their sheer force of will to mold the flames of Ignos. Fire has always been seen to be close to complete chaos, but it can be described as ordered chaos. It takes a lot of concentration to wield the force of flame, but there have been innovations to help resolve these issues, making fire magic more widespread.


History

Fire has been there for as long as people can remember to cook meat, warm themselves up, and other useful facts. But around the year 200, someone took the flames to another level. They had a primal rage large enough to tear a permanent tear between the realm of Eden and Ignos, bringing eternal flame into the world and making it a few degrees hotter. Once this primordial had brought their fire, they went to their respective realm to rule over it. Fire has been a signet for smiths all over Eden and beyond, be it that metal has an innate connection with fire through its inability to burn, as it has been used to open tears easier and even to color the blaze rare tints. The easiest way to find such an item is to open a tear to Ignos and let someone, or something, stamp a circle under the excruciating heat there. The reason this signet is stamped onto the items is certainly unknown, but it has worked for long enough to be seen as a tradition by teachers to teach their students.


Learning and Teaching

To strengthen your will and resolve one's master will put you under extreme heat and torrid conditions for your good. Your mind becomes calm after the horrendous experiences you go through. As your rage, fear, and other emotions fade away. Your mind starts to understand the runes of old, created by the first mage of fire to teach. Only once one's mind has been calmed down enough can one access the true potential of the ring of fire. Training is usually done in volcanic waters, scorching rocks, or close to molten lava, though the conditions are all optional depending on what the teacher sees fit for the student. The teacher can teach their student up to 2 levels under their own. So only level 5 or higher teachers can train their students to level 3.

To reach level one, a teacher needs to have at least four sessions with their student, each being at least sixty minutes long. To obtain level two, the student must have another four lessons of sixty minutes. To finally reach level three and the ability to teach magic themselves, the students need to have another set of four sessions, each with a length of sixty minutes. Each day one session can be held by the teacher and student pair. After finally reaching level three, the student doesn't require additional sessions and will reach level four automatically after some time of self-studying the magic. The first level requires a bonding trial to empower the spellcaster. These trials are usually done at or around the Hallowed Grounds of the magic type that is considered sacred by all those who practice that elemental art. Bonding trials are events of big importance to the mage as they represent their progress and path to attain the true mastery over their element.

Level Increase Required Sessions Req .Session Length
Lvl 0 to Lvl 1 2 Sessions Event at Hallowed Grounds
Lvl 1 to Lvl 2 4 Sessions 60 Minutes. Proof in lore ticket.
Lvl 2 to Lvl 3 4 Sessions 60 Minutes. Proof in lore ticket.
Lvl 3 to Lvl 4 Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 3 times.
Lvl 4 to Lvl 5 Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 4 times.
Lvl 5 to Lvl 6 1 Session Event at Hallowed Grounds
Lvl 6 to Lvl 7 Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 6 times.
Lvl 7 to Lvl 8 Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 8 times.
Lvl 8 to Lvl 9 Self-study. Show proof of self-study in lore ticket 10 times.
Lvl 9 to Lvl 10 1 Session Event at Hallowed Grounds

After choosing a path, the spellcaster will automatically increase in level if they can show proof of self-study. The caster can level up once every IC year or twice if that year is their primal season. Eden's Shine is the primal season of pyromancy.

Bonding trials are still required to level up between certain levels as seen above with "event". For more information about self-study, check the magic rules page.

Limitations

Fire from Ignos does not do permanent harm, so it will not leave permanent burn marks, and they will heal, though this damage does kill while following all rules. This is just so that one's appearance doesn't change without consent. If discussed with the recipient of the flames and they want to have the marks, you can make an exception, but only then. Fire from Ignos does NOT spread to flammable objects and can not cause large spreading fires such as forest fires.

Bodily Changes

Magmamancy

Mandatory

Because of a magmamancer's connection to heat, it raises their body temperature. Their veins appear slightly more exposed, reminiscent of rivers of lava flowing beneath the skin.

Optional

The Magmamacer connects to the more outer parts of the realm where magma flows, able to bring about distinctive alterations in the mage's physical form. Eyes may adopt colors akin to the molten heart of lava, ranging from fiery reds to smoldering oranges. Hair could exhibit a reddish tint, mirroring the hues of Magmamancy. They could also grow some slightly visible scales on their skin, akin to dragon scales.


While their high temperature does not universally affect their temperament, this connection may lead to being irritated quicker. However, it's essential to recognize that this transformation doesn't necessarily define their personality, many Magmamancers remain composed and level-headed.

Solarmancy

Mandatory

Because of a Solarmaner’s connection to the element of heat and the realm of Ignos, their body temperature rises.

Optional

The Solarmancer connects to the inner parts of Ignos where the sun shines brightly, and this could leave some marks on the mage's appearance. Eyes could ignite with fiery hues, ranging from warm golds to radiant oranges. Their skin might acquire a sun-kissed tone, enabling them to control their melanin completely. Hair might shimmer with a golden luster, reflecting the splendor of sunbeams. At times, faint, almost ephemeral flames could dance across their body, a testament to their newfound connection with fire's solar counterpart.


Solarmancers because of their strong connection to the sun and light tend to be more concentrated on what they are doing and focused on their goals. They also tend to be more determined and passionate.

Additional Abilities

Flaming Familiar
The mage can create a small, flame-like spirit that follows them around.
Range Selfcast
Effect The flame spirit has 2 HP. While near their creator, the spirit will grant them +1 to their casting roll. It will also add its flame-like feistiness to the caster, allowing them to deal +1 damage to Burning targets.
Red Lines If the familiar is slain, this ability goes on cooldown for 2 rounds.


Brilliant Radiance (Solarmancy only)
The mage slowly consumes the sun's heat and energy throughout the battle, charging themselves with an unimaginable tension.
Range 10 meters
Effect After activating the ability, the spellcaster will passively charge up sunlight for 2 rounds. Afterwards the spellcaster can use their action to release solar tension from inside themselves, blinding everyone in range for D4+1 rounds.

Once a spellcaster reaches level 5 of Solarmancy their sunlight intake vastly increases, which allows them to choose to stun targets within range for D2 rounds upon activation instead of charging up blindness.

Red Lines If a level 10 solarmancer chooses to stun instead, this ability goes on cooldown for 4 rounds.


Running Hot (Magmamancy only)
When the spellcaster is in CRP, they feel the thrill of battle and channel heat from deep within them, willing or not.
Range Selfcast
Effect This ability can function in one of two ways. Either they can spend an action to channel surrounding intense heat into enemies, setting any enemies within 2 meters on fire. Or, they can release a wave of heat in a 4-meter radius around them, dealing 1 damage each round for 2D2 rounds.
Red Lines Once used, this ability has a cooldown of 3 rounds.
