Effect Use existing mundane flames to cause magical fire effects.
  • Firebolts - Fling a Firebolt from Medium sized flames at a target within range. An additional bolt is fired at a different target for each size category above Medium up to a maximum of Rank bolts. These firebolts may arc around obstacles such as allies to hit their targets, ignoring partial cover. This use reduces the size of the mundane fire by one size category.
  • Combust - A mundane fire of Medium or Large size detonates, dealing caster roll of physical shock damage to targets within Rank yards of the fire and Combusting them. The fire is quenched and the area is covered with a proportionately sized cloud of smoke granting partial cover.
  • Flare - A mundane fire flares brightly dazzling onlookers but burning out quickly. A Small fire causes targets looking at the flame who fail a Mental Resist to suffer a -2 penalty to skill checks for 1 minute. Each size fire larger than Small grants an additional -2 penalty to a maximum of -6. After flaring a fire, it begins receding at one size category per turn until it fizzles out.
  • Spread - You can double the fire growth rate, causing it to rapidly spread at a rate of one size category a turn while Concentrating.
