Fire adept

[advent class]


Rules governing Advent classes

Fire Adepts are master Pyromancers that further dedicate themselves to the element of fire, learning advanced techniques that extend a pyromancer's command over fire. Adepts are well known for their prowess with the elements and Fire Adepts consider themselves to be the most powerful masters among the four elements

The abilities of the Fire Adept are flamboyant, expansive, and visually dramatic. A cunning Fire Adept will use these abilities to dominate not just the physical battlefield, but also the mental, letting their awesome power strike fear into the hearts of their enemies

While the majority of the Fire Adept's abilities focus on normal fire, a portion are dedicated purely to the Path of Peace. Though they are peaceful in focus, they are no less striking, adding a new dimension to the pacificist pyromancer
