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 | 1 Session | 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.
Spells

Critical Failure | The spell's effects work uncontrollably, so much so that the item becomes too hot to hold. The user cannot use their item for D3 rounds as it cools off on the ground. |
Critical Success | The caster's control over where the heat resides makes the glow stronger at the edges. The object grants +1 on attack rolls. |
Red Lines | The person in question must be able to carry the object, which must be made of metal or fire. A metal object will fall apart after being used three times for this spell (unless stated otherwise) due to the constant reheating and cooling of the metal. This spell can also be used on the objects of allies. |

A successful attack deals 2 damage and leaves a burning effect. The second is to use the fiery effect of the horns to rush toward an enemy up to a maximum of 5 meters. If a target is reached another D20 intelligence attack and defense roll is made. A successful attack does 4 damage and leaves a burning effect but ends the spell early. |
Critical Failure | The caster fails to control the flames and burns themselves for 1 damage, scorching the part of their body on which the fire was focused. |
Critical Success | The fire control is extremely potent and the spell lasts for 5 rounds instead. |

Critical Success | The trap is cast exquisitely and lasts for D2+1 rounds. |

Magmamancy Spells
Blazing Shield | |
The casters summons a blazing shield from Ignos. It steams with heat, and bits of lava drip from its edges. | |
Level | 1 |
Casting Value | 12 |
Range | Selfcast |
Damage | Create a shield of fire that acts like a normal shield. This lasts until dispelled and as long as the caster remains within range of their tear. Blocking melee attacks will allow the caster to riposte with a fiery pulse via an intelligence roll, dealing 1 damage on success. |
Critical Failure | Nothing happens. |
Critical Success | The fiery pulse riposte now deals D2 damage. |
Red Lines | You cannot give the shield to another player. This shield can also not be used in combination with a two-handed weapon. |
Ring of Fire | |
The caster creates a ring of fire around themselves or another person within 15 blocks. As this ring is created, nobody except the most prestigious of Pyromancers can get through without getting their skin turned to ash. | |
Level | 2 |
Casting Value | 17 |
Range | 15 meters |
Damage | The caster creates a ring of fire, a circle with a diameter of 5 meters, impenetrable by any projectile except for the caster's. The caster deals +1 extra damage while inside of this ring. This ring of fire does damage when touched. It gives D3 damage every round they touch the ring and inflicts burning. The ring of fire lasts for D3+2 rounds. |
Critical Failure | The ring grows small, letting through any projectiles and spells, but the damage upon someone entering stays the same. |
Critical Success | The ring of fire is strengthened, lasting D3+4 rounds instead. The spell will also deal 1 extra damage to any aquamancer touching it and disable all aquamancers from passing through unaffected. |
Red Lines | The fire ring can be breached using water or aquamancy. The ring will vanish as soon as the mage leaves the area.
Any pyromancer can pass through the ring unaffected. The same applies to Aquamancers above level 5. |
Darkened Skies | |
The caster creates an illusion that blocks out the sun for enemies, blinding them while those deemed allies are not affected. | |
Level | 2 |
Casting Value | 14 |
Range | 15 meters |
Damage | Any enemy within range cannot see more than 2 blocks in front of them as long as they are within range of this spell. This makes them unable to fight/target/follow enemies outside this range.
This effect lasts for D3 rounds. |
Critical Failure | Nothing happens. |
Critical Success | The effect stays for an additional D3 rounds. |
Red Lines | Ranged troops outside the range of the spell cannot shoot into the illusion as those within are invisible to them. |
Blazing Bolts | |
A blazing fire emanates from the tear into Ignos as bolts slowly appear. The bolts point towards the target the caster calls out loud, be it a name or description. All bolts fire in a volley, letting the target burn hotter and hotter with each consecutive hit. | |
Level | 3 |
Casting Value | 16 |
Range | 15 meters |
Damage | When firing this spell, a successful roll, the caster rolls a 2D2 to see how many bolts appear. Each bolt deals 1 damage and adds 1 round of burning. If three or more bolts hit the same target, they take all damage from their active burning effect immediately. This ends the burning effect. |
Critical Failure | The tear becomes unstable whilst casting this spell and collapses, requiring the caster to open a new tear before casting again. |
Critical Success | The bolts always make the target take immediate burn damage. |
Red Lines | A maximum of 3 bolts can be shot at the same target. |
Molten Soil | |
The caster strikes the ground, liquifying a portion of the ground around its target, pinning them in place. | |
Level | 3 |
Casting Value | 14 |
Range | 15 meters |
Damage | If successfully cast, the caster may choose a 5x5 area within range to melt down. All targets in this area that are not Pyromancers cannot move for D2+1 rounds. If they do so, they take 2 damage per two meters they move within the area. After escaping the area, characters will have their movement reduced by -3 meters for the following 2 rounds. |
Critical Failure | The spell has no effect. |
Critical Success | The area is 8x8 instead of 5x5 and remains for D4 rounds. |
Red Lines | The spell only affects the ground. Therefore flying/floating objects can move over the area without taking any damage. Regular water can neutralize the effects of this spell momentarily. However, it will not flow on more blocks than the one it was placed on. |
Scorching Panoply | |
Out of the tear to the realm of fire, the caster takes out a suit of armor more of the consistency of molten steel. It latches onto the front of their body as the fire laps around their appendages. | |
Level | 4 |
Casting Value | 14 |
Range | Self |
Damage | The casters' entire body is surrounded in a shielding flame that grants them +4 on defense rolls for D2+1 rounds. |
Critical Failure | The caster's suit of armor made of the inferno is not that great. The armor explodes, dealing D2+1 damage to the caster. |
Critical Success | The cover the user created for themselves is practically perfect. It grants the caster +6 on defense rolls for 2 extra rounds. |
Red Lines | This spell only works on the caster themself. The armor cannot come off their body. This suit of armor will only shield and cannot damage anything. The spell can be canceled out with any water. |
Smouldering Rain | |
You make it rain fiery ash for a short time. | |
Level | 4 |
Casting Value | 17 |
Range | 15 blocks |
Damage | The caster channels a ball of magma which shoots into the air and explodes into a 12 meter area. Everyone within the area takes 1 burn damage at the end of their turn if they are within the area. This effect lasts for 5 rounds. |

Level | 5 |
Casting Value | 20 |

Damage | Create D7+5 meteors, which can fall onto a maximum of 7 players. Any target that gets hit takes 4 flat damage per fireball, and will be pinned under the meteorite unable to move for 2 rounds. |
Critical Failure | Instead half of the summoned fireballs, rounded up, will hit the caster for 1 damage each and the others disperse. The caster will be pinned for 2 rounds, and may lose a limb. |
Critical Success | The fireballs deal 5 flat damage. |
Red Lines | A maximum of 2 fireballs may be directed at a single player.
These fireballs can cave in roofs to hit targets inside of buildings, or destroy buildings via circular craters. A loremaster must be present for the casting of this spell. This spell can only be cast once a week. |
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 5 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. |
