Pyrokinesis

Generating flames

Pyrokinesis, also known as ignikinesis, is the ability to manipulate heat and fire. Users of this ability are capable of generating, manipulating, and shaping flames, the rapid oxidation of a material in teh exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products, flames being the visible portion of the fire. This ability is a variation of Elementalism and Ergokinesis.

Applications[]

  • Fire immunity: Pyrokinetics are typically immune to the negative effects of fire and/or heat.
  • Flight: Pyrokinetics can achieved flight by creating super-heated thermal currents.
  • Geo-thermokinesis: Some users may be capable of manipulating volcanoes, magma, and lava.
  • Heat generation: Users are able to create heat by raising temperatures and increasing kinetic energy of matter.
  • Heat shields: Users may be able to surround themselves with heat, incinerating or melting any oncoming projectiles.
  • Inflammation: Some pyrokinetics may be able to cause burns without actually producing flames.
  • Pyrokinetic constructs: Pyrokinetics may be able to solidify the flames they manipulate to create shapes and objects out of fire.
  • Tephrakinesis: Some users may be able to generate and/or manipulate ash, a byproduct of fire.
  • Typhokinesis Some users may be able to generate and/or manipulate smoke, a byproduct of fire.

Limitations[]

  • Unconscious, empathic, impulsive, and/or reckless uses of this power can be catastrophic, and control, discipline, and restraint are extremely important.
  • Distance, mass, precision, etc. depend on the knowledge, skill, and strength of the user, and their power's natural limits.
  • Some users are not immune to extreme heat and fire, so they can be injured if direct contact is made.
    • Users may also not be immune to other products of flames, such as ash or smoke inhalation.
  • May not be able to generate fire and are limited to controlling already-existing fire.
  • Fire can only be generated when oxygen, fuel, and energy is present.
    • Hellfire does not require any of these in order to be generated.
  • Water, ice, and/or coldness can be used to overpower fire and heat.
