Tribally-Linked Abilities

All beings elementally aligned with Fire have Resistance to Fire and Heat-based damage, taking half damage from these sources. Additionally, they have Vulnerability to Cold damage.

Elemental Talents

Wielders of Fire have access to a variety of Elemental Talents; you begin play with the Ignition or Heat Exhaustion Talent, and may unlock the others for their listed SP cost.

Ignition - 2SP

Your Elemental Attacks that deal Fire damage deal Fire 1.2 damage.

Engulf In Flame - 2SP (Prerequisite: Ignition)

Increase one variable of your Elemental attack’s Fire Damage by 1. This only increases either X or Y, but not both with a single purchase. This Talent can be taken multiple times, and costs 2 additional SP for each time you have taken it.

Smolder - 2SP (Prerequisite: Ignition)

Beings that are suffering a DOT effect from your Ignition Talent give off large clouds of thick smoke. Beings suffering your Ignition DOT effect emit a cloud of smoke with a 5ft radius, causing them to be treated as Shrouded for the duration of the effect. Alternatively, you may apply this effect to yourself for 5EE for 1d4 rounds.

Flare - 3SP (Prerequisite: Ignition)

Whenever you use an Elemental Attack that deals Fire damage, you may spend 6EE. Any being damaged by that attack must make a FORT save, in addition to the other effects; on a failure, they are Blinded for [(1d4) - 1] (to a minimum of 1) Round(s).

Cauterization - 2SP (Prerequisite: Ignition)

As a 2AP action, you may spend 3EE to emit white-hot flames, targeting a being you can see within 15ft of you; if that being is currently suffering from the Bleeding condition, the duration immediately ends.

Heat Exhaustion - 2SP

Your elemental attacks may deal Heat damage.

Rather than raw flame, your elemental attacks may channel heat. Whenever you deal Heat damage to a being with your elemental powers, you may spend 5EE. If you do, the being struck must make a FORT save; on a failure, they gain one level of Exhaustion. A being cannot gain Exhaustion levels higher than your PROF from this ability.

Heat Stroke - 3SP (Prerequisite: Heat Exhaustion)

Whenever you deal Heat damage to a being with an elemental attack, the being must make a FORT save; on a failure, they suffer the Dizzy and Shaken conditions for 1d4 rounds.

Flameforged - 2SP

As a 4AP Action, you may spend 10EE to rebind a Broken item that is made of metal, granting it 1HP.

Area of Effect

Raging flames erupt from the ground in a dazzling display of elemental power. All beings within the AoE must make a REFL Save at the start of your turn while the AoE is active, or whenever they enter the AoE; on a failure, they suffer Fire Damage equal to your Intensity, or half as much on a successful one. Saves made to resist your Fire Elemental Talents are made with DADV1 while in the AoE. After the AoE ends, the space it occupied continues to burn for 1d4 Rounds, forcing any being that crosses into the AoE to make a REFL Save; on a failure, they suffer Fire 1.2 (see Elemental Calculations).

Elemental Armor

Your body erupts in an uncontrollable mass of flames, scorching foes beyond recognition if they dare to walk through the inferno. Whenever a being passes within 5ft of you, regardless of whether they make an attack against you, they must make a REFL Save; on a failure, they suffer Xd6 Fire Damage. If they attempt a Strike Action against you, they suffer DADV1.

Starting at Intensity 3, when you first activate your E-Armor, you expel a blast of raw, searing flames, forcing all beings within 10 ft of you to make a REFL Save; on a failure, they suffer 2d4 + X Fire Damage. Additionally, the DADV forced on beings who attempt Strike Actions against you increases to DADV2. In all cases, X is equal to your Intensity.
