You control thermal energy directly, summoning flame from the air, draining heat to create cold, and at higher ranks shaping fire into precise tools or wielding the searing power of plasma.
Rank 1: Cone of Flame
The baseline mode of Pyrokinesis: you exhale or project a cone of flame from your hand. Heavy fire damage in the cone; Dex save for half. You may also create or quench small mundane flames at will.
Rank 2: Flame Control
You gain finer control: you can shape jets of flame, create a flame shield around yourself, throw a fireball at a point in range, or wreathe yourself in flame (self-immolation, granting fire damage on contact and burning attacks). You can also drain heat from an area, creating cold and frost.
Rank 3: Fine & Large Scale
You can apply your control with surgical precision (cauterize a wound, melt a single component of a mechanism) or at large scale (set entire structures ablaze, ignite an army's arrows in a single cone, suppress an inferno).
Rank 4: Plasma
You can superheat matter to plasma, ignoring most material resistances and dealing radiant + fire damage. Plasma jets cut through metal armor and stone walls.
