| 14 | VideoGames with [[PlayingWithFire firepower]]. |
| 15 | ---- |
| 16 | * ''VideoGame/AdvancedVariableGeo'': Satomi Yajima uses fire-based ki attacks. |
| 17 | * ''VideoGame/Anno1800'': |
| 18 | ** The Pyrphorians cause chaos by starting city fires. They also have three different ship types, all of which have inbuilt flamethrowers. |
| 19 | ** The player can equip a flamethrower item on his ships to give them the same effect. |
| 20 | * ''VideoGame/ANNOMutationem'': One opponent at the [[GladiatorSubquest fighting arena]] is Pyrofist, who's able to dispel flames from his body and use them to increase his combat effectiveness. Pyrofist's bio also implies that he's an actual sentient flame within his armor. |
| 21 | %%* ''VideoGame/ArcanaHeart'': [[RobotGirl Mei Fang's]] default Arcana. |
| 22 | %%* ''VideoGame/BackyardSports'': Fire is a powerup in many games.%%Meaning what? |
| 23 | %%* ''VideoGame/BlackSigil'': Aurora. Also [[spoiler:Doll]], who can use all elements. |
| 24 | * ''VideoGame/BayonettaOriginsCerezaAndTheLostDemon'': When Cereza and Cheshire find and destroy the Fire Core, Cheshire gains the powers of fire such as blasting a ball of fire that can destroy icy vines, and cause an explosion that obliterates any nearby faeries. |
| 25 | * ''VideoGame/BioShock'': |
| 26 | ** ''VideoGame/BioShock1'': The Incinerate! plasmid lets you set fire to your enemies with a snap of your fingers; in ''VideoGame/BioShock2'', upgraded versions include launching fireballs or a continuous stream of flame. The chemical thrower with napalm ammo has similar effects. |
| 27 | ** ''VideoGame/BioshockInfinite'': The "Devil's Kiss" vigor lets you toss a fireball out like a grenade. There are also the [[EliteMook Firemen]] you fight from time to time, who carry a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQmJtLU6V5g personality]] as fiery as their attacks. |
| 28 | * ''Franchise/BlazBlue'': Bang Shishigami's Drive attack is the only thing in the game that sets the enemy ablaze. ''[[VideoGame/BlazBlueChronophantasma Chronophantasma]]'' introduces Bullet, who has the pyrokinetic gauntlet armagus. |
| 29 | %%* ''VideoGame/BloodlineChampions'': The Igniter [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin definitely lives up to its name]]. |
| 30 | * ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireIII'': Garr is naturally strong to fire (taking half normal damage from it) and has a few fire-related abilities. Considering that he looks like a demon, it probably fits the theme. |
| 31 | * ''VideoGame/{{Bugdom}}'': The main antagonists are fire ants. [[PunBasedCreature True to their name]], starting from Level 8, you encounter flying red ants that literally breathe fire at you. Their leader, King Thorax, is an ant wizard that uses fire magic, and you beat him by [[BossArenaIdiocy hitting the water pipes]] to douse his flames. |
| 32 | * ''VideoGame/BugFables'': [[BigBad The Wasp King]] can use the magic of flame. Given that the main characters are bugs, he essentially becomes the resident ManOfKryptonite, with his first fight being the HopelessBossFight. [[spoiler:Fortunately, the usurped Queen Vanessa II entrusts the main team with the Flame Brooch, which greatly negates the damage done by his flames]]. |
| 33 | * ''VideoGame/CastleInTheDarkness'': The first magic spell you can get is a chargeable fireball attack. |
| 34 | * ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'': Lucca starts off already using a pocket flamethrower, but when Spekkio unlocks her magic potential later, it's all fire-based spells in addition to the status-buffing Protect, and she also incorporates a variety of fiery explosive grenades. |
| 35 | * ''VideoGame/CityOfHeroes'': |
| 36 | ** The game includes a fire-based set for everything -- melee, ranged, buffs and debuffs, control... |
| 37 | ** There's also the Hellions, the demonically-themed gang of pyromaniacs you start off fighting against. [[{{Mook}} Blood Brothers]] and [[EliteMook Fallen]] have resistance to fire, while bosses from this gang have full-on pyrokinesis. |
| 38 | * ''VideoGame/CommandAndConquer'': All the units with some sort of firepower. Given that warfare is a major aspect and firepower is prevalent for most offensive units, some really are adept at the term. Look at the Flame Tanks and Flamethrower Infantry in ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerTiberianDawn Tiberian Dawn]]''. Not only do they dish out massive damage at enemy infantries, but when your unit with flammable weaponry is killed, it goes up in massive flames, thus inflicting moderate damage on nearby units and structures, whether friend, foe, or neutral. This trait is also noticeable on GDI Grenadiers, but the resulting explosion is of a lesser degree. It makes a comeback in the Flame Towers, Flamethrower Infantry, and Grenadiers of the Soviet faction in ''[[VideoGame/CommandAndConquerRedAlert Red Alert]]''. In the Aftermath expansion, the Demolition Truck is available as a deliberate suicide unit; get these suicide bombing trucks out of your base right when you can, because once it explodes, the explosion is of a massive size. |
| 39 | * ''VideoGame/CrisisCore: VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'': Genesis Rhapsodos, the BigBad, is an extremely skilled fire magic user. |
| 40 | * ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' has this in the form of Pyromancy. Unlike [[MagicIsMental Sorcery]] or [[ReligionIsMagic Miracles]], Pyromancy Flames don't scale with any stats but their own level, and also have various support spells, like [[AwesomeButImpractical Power Within]] or [[ChromeChampion Iron Flesh]]. Due to this, it remains consistently useful throughout the game as long as the flame is upgraded frequently, often dealing more damage than high-level Sorceries in the late game. In order to address issues of [[GameBreaker Pyromancy being OP]], later games make it so that Pyromancy now scales with intelligence (INT) and faith (FTH)...this means that a pyromancy build requires heavier investment in those two stats to make it work. In addition, pyromancies have differing requirements for both INT and FTH to even use properly. Unusually for a fire-based magic, Pyromancy's control of the fire also branches into such effects as gaining fire resistance through sweating, acid, and charming the Undead. |
| 41 | %%* ''VideoGame/DarkSpore'': Plasmagenetic creatures are a mixture between this trope and ShockAndAwe.%%How? |
| 42 | * ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'': Pyron is a GalacticConqueror who is basically a walking star and, accordingly, is ''made'' of fire. |
| 43 | * ''VideoGame/DefenseOfTheAncients'': |
| 44 | ** Lina, the Slayer, already based on [[Literature/{{Slayers}} Lina Inverse]], specializes in hot, burning fire magic, with her quotes mostly about fire. Strangely, her ultimate is instead [[ShockAndAwe lightning elemental]]. |
| 45 | ** [[ThePhoenix The literally-named Phoenix]] also comes with fire power. |
| 46 | ** Batrider carries several explosives that explodes, can leave a trail of burning fire on his path, or tie an enemy up and drag them with fire lasso. |
| 47 | ** Bone Clinkz, the Bone Fletcher, comes with the skill to set his arrows on fire, adding extra damage. |
| 48 | ** Xin the Ember Spirit, befitting of his name, is a spirit made of fire, wields a fire sword and all his skills involve manipulating fire to either damage others or using various utility. |
| 49 | * ''VideoGame/{{Destiny}}'': You can utilize one of three Solar Light subclasses: Hunter -- Gunslinger; Warlock -- Sunsinger; Titan -- Sunbreaker. |
| 50 | * ''VideoGame/DiceyDungeons'': |
| 51 | ** In addition to being able to use fire-based magic (among many others), the Witch is shown forming a small flame over one hand on the Selection Stage. She also, uniquely among the player characters, can turn the Burn status effect against her enemies, discarding burning dice by throwing them at her opponent so they take the damage instead. She can also exploit this by using the Crucible to ''intentionally'' turn her dice into fiery ammo. |
| 52 | ** Several enemies such as Fireman, Wicker Man, and Wisp, and bosses such as Buster and Madison use fire attacks to burn your dice. |
| 53 | * ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'' : [[VideoGame/Disgaea2CursedMemories Adell]] and [[VideoGame/Disgaea3AbsenceOfJustice Raspberyl]] specialize in fire techniques. Red Skull and Mage classes also use fire spells. The Dragon, Entei, and Ifrit monster classes all specialize in fire attacks, as well (save for the first game, where the former two used attacks of whatever element they had an affinity for). The Dragon mostly uses it as a BreathWeapon, while the latter two manipulate it in a more spectacular fashion. |
| 54 | * ''VideoGame/DonkeyKong64'': Army Dillo shoots fireballs from his cannons, Dogadon and Puftoss spit them from their mouths, and Mad Jack throws them by hand. Since you rematch Army Dillo and Dogadon, that means six of the game's eight bosses use fireballs to attack. |
| 55 | * ''VideoGame/DoomII'': The Arch-vile is a powerful demon shaped like a humanoid being wearing a flaming robe. It can not only revive enemies, but also induce a corporeal ignition into the Marine's body, resulting in a severe loss of health after a few seconds unless the Marine escapes the enemy's line of sight. |
| 56 | * ''Franchise/DragonAge'': All mages can learn fire spells if the player chooses, but a few stand out. |
| 57 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOriginsAwakening'': Velanna starts off with all Fire spells unlocked. This may count as a bit of ActorAllusion, as she shares her [[Creator/GreyDeLisle voice actress]] with [[WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown two other]] [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender masters of fire magic]]. |
| 58 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'': Bethany starts with the Fireball spell and uses fire the most frequently in cutscenes. |
| 59 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'': Solas is the only companion with access to the [[LimitBreak Firestorm spell]]. |
| 60 | * ''VideoGame/DragonsCrown'': The Wizard seems to use fire as his primary element. Not only does he have several fire spells, from the simple Blaze to the AwesomeButImpractical Meteor Swarm, but he also uses a fire staff as his starting weapon. |
| 61 | * ''VideoGame/DragonFable'': |
| 62 | ** Xan, the Pyromancer. To emphasize his love of fire and his AxCrazy nature, a quest lets you control him. Here's his command list: |
| 63 | -->Attack (with Fists of Fire)\ |
| 64 | Fire\ |
| 65 | More Fire\ |
| 66 | Lots of Fire\ |
| 67 | Even More Fire\ |
| 68 | OMGBBQ?! |
| 69 | ** Later on, he reanimates the Great Dragon of Fire using the power gained from the Orb of Fire. |
| 70 | ** His apprentice Drakonnan gets in on the action by upping his fire power with the Orb of Fire. While Xan can be entertaining due to his craziness, Drakonnan has a thing for RevengeByProxy. [[DracoInLeatherPants Yet oh how the fan girls spring to Drakonnan's defense...]] |
| 71 | * ''VideoGame/DragonQuest'': |
| 72 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestI'': The Hero has the Hurt and Hurtmore spells (called "Firebal" and "Firebane" in the GBC version, and translated as "Sizz" and "Sizzle" in modern localizations), learned at levels 4 and 19, respectively. |
| 73 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestII'': The Prince of Cannock learns fire spells. |
| 74 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIII'': |
| 75 | *** Erdrick gets a small splash of the Blaze and Fireball line spells before unlocking the Hero's unique lightning element spells. |
| 76 | *** Mages' starting spell is "Blaze," and the Blaze family and Fireball family spells form an important core to their spell lists. Sages also have access to the full family of Fire spells. |
| 77 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIV'': Maya begins with the Frizz spell in contrast to fellow magic-caster Borya who starts with Crack. |
| 78 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestV'': |
| 79 | *** All potential brides learn the powerful fire spell Kasizzle. |
| 80 | *** Madchen's, the Hero's daughter, gets the Fire line of spells from her mother. |
| 81 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVI'': Ashlynn learns fire spells naturally. |
| 82 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVII'': |
| 83 | *** Maribel learns the Frizz and Bang spells naturally. |
| 84 | *** Antoria attacks using both Flame Slash and the Sizzle spells. |
| 85 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestVIII'': |
| 86 | *** The Hero can learn some fire spells. |
| 87 | *** Jessica is the team's principal Mage. The first thing she does upon seeing the Hero and mistaking him for Alistair's killer? Shoot fireballs at him. |
| 88 | *** When Morrie is feeling particularly passionate, flames will appear out of nowhere behind him. It turns out that his passion actually lets him ''control'' fire. |
| 89 | *** Among the villains, Gemon can breath fire to attack. |
| 90 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestIX'': Mages master the "Frizz" line of spells. |
| 91 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestXI'': |
| 92 | *** The Luminary learns a number of fire spells naturally, though not to the same level as Veronica. Like all swordsmen, he can also learn the Flame Slash technique. |
| 93 | *** Veronica's most iconic magical ability, although she does learn other elemental spells as well. |
| 94 | *** Sylvando's Hot Lick ability has him breathe fire on an enemy, and like all swordsmen he can learn the Flame Slash technique. He also has a few fire-related Pep Powers; Tempered Tantrum, which sees Sylv breathing fire on the Hero's sword to superheat it for a large-damage attack; Frizzwhizz, in which Sylv and the Hero create a fire tornado; and Shocking Twist, which sees Sylv jumping into a fire tornado created by the Hero and Serena in order to buff certain stats. |
| 95 | ** ''VideoGame/DragonQuestHeroesIITwinKingsAndTheProphecysEnd'': The Queen of Ingenia is seen casting massive fire balls at the party. |
| 96 | * ''VideoGame/{{Dreamkiller}}'', being set in DreamLand where you ''can'' control surroundings, grants you the ability to incinerate enemies with your mind if you're unarmed. Problem is you can only roast 1 target at a time and it drains your mana. |
| 97 | * ''VideoGame/EarthAndSky'': One of the new [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman elemental supersuits]] introduced in the final chapter has a fire-themed powerset. |
| 98 | * ''Franchise/TheElderScrolls'': |
| 99 | ** Fire-based spells are available throughout the series as part of the Destruction school of magic, which includes the entire FireIceLightning trio. While its exact effects vary depending on the game, fire spells tend to cause the most outright damage, cost the least Magicka to cast, and often have the effect of continuing to burn the target for some time after the initial impact. |
| 100 | ** Flame Atronachs are a type of unaligned [[OurDemonsAreDifferent lesser Daedra]] who are essentially the ElementalEmbodiment of Fire. They appear throughout the series, typically being immune to Fire damage while dishing out powerful Fire spells of their own. |
| 101 | ** Daedroths are a [[NeverSmileAtACrocodile crocodilian]] form of lesser Daedra which appears throughout the series. They are capable of using fire-based attacks, be they magical {{Fireballs}} or "natural" [[BreathWeapon fire breath]]. |
| 102 | ** Dremora are an intelligent race of lesser Daedra who are most commonly found in the service of [[DestroyerDeity Mehrunes Dagon]] as his LegionsOfHell. Though they have been known to use other spells from the Destruction school of magic, Dremora most frequently use fire-based magic attacks. |
| 103 | ** Scamps are the [[TheGoomba weakest]] and [[FunSize smallest]] known form of lesser Daedra. Despite this, some Scamps are capable of casting minor fire-based spells. In addition, they have [[AntiMagic a resistance]] to fire, both magical and natural. It is said that they are not bothered by heat. |
| 104 | ** ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIDaggerfall'': This is the standard attack of Nymphs. They use a mystical fire spell which drains stamina in addition to health. |
| 105 | ** ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind'': Fire-magic tends to be the least useful of the three elements of Destruction spell, as over half of the [=NPCs=] in the game are the fire-resistant [[OurElvesAreDifferent Dunmer]]. This reverses for ''Bloodmoon'' expansion, where the snowy atmosphere lends itself to many ice-based opponents who are severely weak to fire. |
| 106 | ** ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIVOblivion'': You shoot, well, {{Fireballs}}. |
| 107 | ** ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim'': |
| 108 | *** You can shoot fireballs, emit a constant stream of fire from the palm of your hand, lay fire rune traps, enchant your weapons to do fire damage and cause a huge explosion by hitting the ground with your fist. |
| 109 | *** In addition to standard fire spells, both dragons and the [[PlayerCharacter Dragonborn]] can use the Thu'um to [[BreathWeapon "breathe" fire]].[[note]]Technically, they aren't "breathing" it. Rather, they are using the draconic LanguageOfMagic to command fire into existence. Functionally, it's the same.[[/note]] |
| 110 | *** At several [[OurGiantsAreBigger Giant]] camps, one can find humanoid remains tied to spits over their campfires. It is unclear if this is simply a method of executing intruders or if this is part of their [[ImAHumanitarian meal preparation]]. |
| 111 | *** Hagravens, a species of flightless [[HarpingOnAboutHarpies harpy]] who were [[WasOnceAMan once mortal women]] that performed a ritual to trade in their humanity for access to powerful magic, have a preference for using fire-based magic. In particular, they prefer fire-based spells with a large AreaOfEffect. |
| 112 | ** ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline'' introduces Daedric Titans, a type of lesser Daedra created by [[GodOfEvil Molag Bal]], the [[OurGodsAreDifferent Daedric Prince]] of [[TheCorrupter Domination and Corruption]], by corrupting ''dragons''. Ash Titans are a stronger variant created by [[DestroyerDeity Mehrunes Dagon]] and imbued with fire magic. |
| 113 | * ''Franchise/{{Fallout}}'': Fire ants, a stronger variety of the giant ant enemies, [[PunBasedCreature can spit fire]] -- or, more specifically, a flammable secretion from their former acid glands that they ignite by clicking their mandibles. |
| 114 | * ''VideoGame/FatalFury'': Billy Kane can channel fire through his bo staff. Ironically, he hates smoking. In ''Fatal Fury 2'', Mai Shiranui comes in with an arsenal of flame-based attacks, which she has retained since. |
| 115 | * ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' games: |
| 116 | ** Ifrit is one of the most consistently-recurring summons in the series and is always fire-elemental, being able to use fire magic when fought as a boss and his SignatureMove Hellfire when summoned. |
| 117 | ** [[ThePhoenix Phoenix]], another Summon, is this when it's not [[LightEmUp holy-elemental]]. It burns your enemies while simultaneously reviving/healing allies. |
| 118 | ** The recurring and usually enemy-exclusive Blaze and Flame abilities deal fire damage to all party members. In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyI'' and ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyII'', Blaze even has multiple levels with different animations. |
| 119 | ** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'': Terra specializes in fire magic, learning Fire/Fira/Firaga and Meltdown naturally |
| 120 | ** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII'': Seifer specializes in using fire magic, starting every one of his LimitBreak attacks with a fire spell. |
| 121 | ** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII'': |
| 122 | *** Belias is Ifrit's replacement, right down to having Hellfire as his ultimate attack. When fought as a boss, Belias instead uses Firaja, which inflicts both fire damage and the Oil status effect, which multiplies any fire damage received. Belias returns both as a boss and a fire-elemental summon in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIIRevenantWings'', retaining his Painflare and Firaja abilities. Belias also shows up in ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyTacticsA2'' as the fire-elemental Scion, summonable by any unit equipped with the Gigas Pendant to hit the entire battlefield. In the latter two games, oddly enough, Belias shares his fire-summon role with Ifrit. |
| 123 | *** Unique to ''XII'' is the Ardor spell, which acts as a fourth-level fire spell accessible to the player and conjures [[TechnicolorFire blue flames]] to deal massive area-of-effect damage. |
| 124 | ** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'': Sazh gets the Fire line of spells most readily, including Firaga, while getting no direct Water or Blizzard spells at all. His summon, Brynhildr, is fire-based as well. |
| 125 | ** ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'': Cloud specializes in the Fire line of spells, since, unlike nearly other character with black magic spells, Cloud *only* uses the Fire line, and is the one of the few characters in the game to have more than one or two tiers of a spell line. |
| 126 | * ''Franchise/FireEmblem'': |
| 127 | ** The series has several fire magic tomes that are usable by the [[BlackMage Anima mage]] (sometimes just "Mage") class, ranging from the basic Fire spell that shoots a small fireball at an enemy, to extremely powerful spells like Bolganone (which opens up a volcanic fissure and incinerates enemies with the fiery explosion) and Meteor (which calls down a gigantic flaming meteor that deals damage in a wide area). |
| 128 | ** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar'' and ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThracia776'' features a noble house full of mages specializing in Fire Magic, the House of Velthomer. Its leader, Arvis, is known for the ancestral fire tome Valflame, which is not only powerful, but also most famously used to [[spoiler:roast the first half's main character Sigurd to permanent death]]. |
| 129 | ** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'': Edelgard despite her preference for axes and armored classes actually has reasonable potential if trained in magic (indeed, she has Reason as a [[MagikarpPower budding talent]]) and will learn several different fire spells as she levels it [[spoiler:with the others being [[CastingAShadow dark magic]]]]. In ''VideoGame/FireEmblemWarriorsThreeHopes'', her unique ability imbues all her attacks with fire for greater raw damage and once again training her in magic will allow her to learn several fire spells and even the "Essence of Fire" skill to power up her fire-based moves even further. |
| 130 | * ''VideoGame/GarfieldsNightmare'': Patrick Sweaty is a large green dragon that lurks within the lava, and is the boss of the second world. It spits streams of fire onto Garfield before trying to attack him with its head ([[TacticalSuicideBoss which ends up giving the cat the chance to attack it]]). |
| 131 | * ''VideoGame/GarouMarkOfTheWolves'': Kim Jae Hoon infuses some of his father, Kim Kaphwan's techniques (namely the Hangetsu Zan, Hien Zan and Ryuusei Raku) with fire as part of his moveset. Also from the same game there is Kevin Rian, a SWAT officer who uses various fire-based special moves, with his [[SuperSpecialMove super moves]] causing ''explosions''. |
| 132 | * The superhero-themed game, ''VideoGame/GeminiHeroesReborn'', where everyone has superpowers, and the main villain, Trevor Mason, has pyrokinesis ([[EvilIsBurningHot of course]]!) When faced as a boss Mason will either hurl burning plasma from his hands or try grabbing you from up close with his body alight. |
| 133 | * ''VideoGame/GenshinImpact'': A number of characters have Pyro visions, enabling them to release fire against enemies with their Elemental Talents. [[ElementalRockPaperScissors Unsurprisingly]], they're quite effective against [[AnIcePerson Cryo]] enemies. Although many do so with blazing swords or spears, Klee does it with magical bombs and Yoimiya with firework arrows. |
| 134 | * ''VideoGame/GianaSistersDS'': Punk Giana, Killer Eyeball enemies, and the FinalBoss Dragon are able to shoot -or spit- fireballs. |
| 135 | * ''VideoGame/{{Gigantic}}'': Charnok is a [[DraconicHumanoid drakkor]] sorcerer, and can wield fire both via his magic and his [[BreathWeapon natural ability to breathe it]]. |
| 136 | * ''VideoGame/GoldenSun'': Garet and Jenna are the Mars Adepts[[note]]individuals utilizing fire-based [[PsychicPowers Psynergy]][[/note]] present in ''Golden Sun'' and ''Golden Sun: The Lost Age'', with [[FieryRedhead fiery personalities and red hair]], to boot. The villainous duos of each game (Saturos and Menardi in the first game; Agatio and Karst in the second game), hailing from a fire-wielding clan, also fall under this trope. The third game, ''VideoGame/GoldenSunDarkDawn'', has Garet's son Tyrell [[{{Pun}} picking up the torch]] alongside Eoleo, who's element was previously something of a mystery. |
| 137 | * ''VideoGame/GuildWars'': One of the Elementalist skill sets is Fire Magic, though it's the most single-minded skillset of the class, focusing on one thing: damage, and in large quantities. |
| 138 | * ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'': Several characters bust out with the occasional fire attack, including Robo-Ky, Axl, Faust, Potemkin, and Bridget. Sol Badguy is the most common, as almost all of his special moves light opponents on fire. |
| 139 | * Your very first spell in ''VideoGame/HandsOfNecromancy'' is the fire spell, cast with the Firebolt Staff allowing you to blast fireballs at enemies. You can also obtain a transformation spell turning you into a [[BigRedDevil Hell Burner]] - and blast ''five'' fireballs at one shot. |
| 140 | * ''VideoGame/HarryPotter'': Some games have Harry learn Incendio, a spell that shoots flames, usually [[TechnicolorFire blue ones]]. |
| 141 | * ''VideoGame/HeroesOfMightAndMagicIII: Armageddon's Blade'': The eponymous campaign follows the story of Adrienne, a Fire Witch, who follows the trope to a 't'. |
| 142 | * ''VideoGame/HollowKnight'': The Grimmkin attack with fireballs or burst of fires out the ground. Their leader, Troupe Master Grimm, also uses fire in some of his attacks. [[spoiler:Grimm's stronger Nightmare King form uses fire even more often, with it trailing behind him when he dashes and strikes.]] |
| 143 | * ''VideoGame/InazumaEleven'': Goenji Shuuya (Axel [[MeaningfulName Blaze]]) is a fire elemental ''soccer player'', who takes this trope up by creating fire tornadoes and summoning fire gigas-like effects during his special shoots. |
| 144 | * ''VideoGame/InFAMOUS2'': Nix has powers over fire and oil, which Cole can actually gain a bit of if he decides to do a power transfer with her. |
| 145 | * ''VideoGame/InFamousSecondSon'': Delsin has fire/smoke powers as the first one he starts off with. |
| 146 | * ''VideoGame/{{Karnov}}'': Karnov, Russian strongman and one-time mascot of Data East, breathes fire. |
| 147 | * ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising'': Pyrrhon is the Sun God, so his entire body is engulfed in fire. For his moves and actions, think like [[Comicbook/GhostRider Johnny Blaze]] but much more [[{{Camp}} cheesy]]. |
| 148 | * ''Franchise/TheKingOfFighters'': |
| 149 | ** Kyo Kusanagi himself, whose ability to use flames comes from an inherited treasure called the "Kusanagi-no-Tsurugi". His rival Iori also has flames that he can use from another treasure called the "Yasakani-no-Magatama", the difference being that they're purple due to his clan making a pact with {{Orochi}} in the past. Ditto the former's dad Saisyu, who also uses fire in his moveset. |
| 150 | ** Orochi Chris (but not Chris ''as'' Orochi) uses fire, too, cementing him as the New Faces Team's Kyo counterpart. |
| 151 | ** Shingo Yabuki, Kyo's protege, is under the impression that he can actually "shoot fire" under certain conditions, but he totally can't. |
| 152 | ** K' can use flames himself due to having Kyo's DNA injected into him, though he has to wear a special glove to control them. SNKBoss Krizalid also uses flames in his moveset due him also having Kyo's DNA. |
| 153 | ** And so can K9999[[note]]and by extension, Krohnen in ''[[VideoGame/TheKingOfFightersXV XV]]''[[/note]], although his is rather lacking in comparison to even K's, though his polymorphic arm makes up for this shortcoming. His replacement Nameless, on the other hand, can use blood-red flames, although he has to take his glove off first to use them. |
| 154 | ** The third arc gives us Ash Crimson, who uses green flames resembling melted wax in his moveset. BigBad [[spoiler:and ancestor of Ash]] Saiki also uses flames, though his are black and resemble ink. |
| 155 | ** Shun'ei of ''[[VideoGame/TheKingOfFightersXIV XIV]]'' plays with this, as his flames take the form of a flaming fist on his left side.[[note]]His right arm uses a [[MakingASplash water fist]]/[[/note]] [[spoiler:It's also a fragment of [[BigBad Verse]]'s power, who himself is this taken to the extreme.]] |
| 156 | ** Syo Kirishima, the original concept version of Kyo, has similar abilities (and a more exaggerated personality). |
| 157 | ** Also, one of Kyo's strongest moves involve him being a ManOnFire, and if an opponent stands close to him before he launches the attack (since the attack can be held), they get damage -- even more if their moves are countered. If Kyo's opponent takes that attack head on and gets countered -- it's enough for a KO. Then again, who takes that attack head-on... |
| 158 | * ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'': |
| 159 | ** Fire is one of the most basic spells for the protagonists; usually it takes the form of a fiery projectile, but the second game veils the user in flames instead for an area-wide attack. |
| 160 | ** BreakoutCharacter Axel[=/=]Lea is the fire specialist among Organization XIII's various elemental powers. He's been shown launching fireballs, setting his weapons on fire, creating walls of flame and melting the floor underneath him. |
| 161 | --->'''Axel:''' ''[mid-battle]'' Burn, baby! |
| 162 | ** ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsII'': Mulan's skills and Limit Break are all fire-based, due to being used along with Mushu. Mushu himself was a fire-based Summon in [[VideoGame/KingdomHeartsI the first game.]] |
| 163 | ** ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII'': [[spoiler:Master Xehanort]] spams lots of different fire attacks during the middle phases of his SequentialBoss fight. Simba is the game's fire-elemental summon, able to create fiery shockwaves by leaping and roaring. |
| 164 | * ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}'': The series has its fair share of fire-starters: |
| 165 | ** ''VideoGame/KirbysAdventure'' introduced Fire Kirby and recurring foes Flamer, Hot Head, Fire Lion, and Mr. Bright. |
| 166 | %%** ''VideoGame/KirbySuperStar'' and ''VideoGame/KirbyStarAllies'': Burning Leo. |
| 167 | ** ''VideoGame/KirbySqueakSquad'': One of the bosses is Bohboh, an owl-raccoon hybrid with [[HotWings literal wings of fire]], making its residence in [[LethalLavaLand Vocal Volcano]]. |
| 168 | ** ''VideoGame/KirbyTripleDeluxe'' introduces Flame Galboros, a fiery version of [[MakingASplash Water Galboros]]. |
| 169 | ** ''VideoGame/KirbyStarAllies'': Flamberge carries a fire-shaped [[MeaningfulName flamberge]] in addition to a flamethrower. |
| 170 | %%* ''VideoGame/TheLastBlade'': Lee Rekka and Kagami (who even uses one of Kyo's signature attacks and resembles Kyo a great deal). |
| 171 | * ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'': Not counting skins, there are three fire-based Champions: |
| 172 | ** [[ChildMage Annie, the Dark Child]] has various fire spells and a [[BearsAreBadNews giant]] [[IncendiaryExponent flaming]] bear called [[FluffyTheTerrible Tibbers]] |
| 173 | ** Brand, the Burning Vengeance, a [[GlassCannon high damage mage]] with nothing but damaging fire spells |
| 174 | ** Shyvana, the Half-Dragon, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin being what she is]] allows for a lot of [[BreathWeapon fire breathing]], even more when she uses her ultimate ability to [[VoluntaryShapeshifting morph into a dragon]]. |
| 175 | * ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrails'': |
| 176 | ** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsInTheSky'': Agate's orbment has fire slots so he can focus on STR. Also, many of his crafts utilize fire visually, though they have no inherent element unless talismans are equipped. |
| 177 | ** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsFromZeroAndTrailsToAzure'': Randy's orbment includes Fire-restricted Slots and he has several Crafts based around the theme, including Salamander and [[LimitBreak Crimson Gale]], which can set targets on fire as a secondary effect. |
| 178 | ** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfHeroesTrailsOfColdSteel'': Lechter's primary element-restricted slot is fire, and his default Master Quartz is a fire-elemental Chevalier Ex. |
| 179 | * ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfSpyro'': Fire is one of the primary ElementalPowers in the series. |
| 180 | ** Spyro's fire abilities tend to focus around launching fiery projectiles or weak streams of fire at lower levels, before being upgraded to powerful area-of-effect explosions, barrages of fiery meteors, and clinging flames that deal DamageOverTime and spread from enemy to enemy. |
| 181 | ** Ignitus, the Fire Guardian, is an elderly dragon who serves as Spyro's mentor and father figure and can blast all of his enemies away by exploding with fire. |
| 182 | * ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'': |
| 183 | ** Common fire-based enemies in the series include Dodongos (fire-breathing dinosaurs with its [[AttackTheTail tail as its weak point]]), Fire Keese ([[GoddamnedBats bat-like enemies]] with infernal powers[[note]]in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'' and the ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOracleGames Oracle Games]]'', normal Keese can [[InfernalRetaliation become Fire Keese when they fly into a torch or when Link strikes with his Fire Arrows or Ember Seeds]], respectively[[/note]]), Bubbles ([[DemBones skullheads]] that fly around with an inflamed body regardless of color[[note]]watch out for the blue ones in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask Majora's Mask]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker The Wind Waker]]'', because coming into contact with those [[{{Curse}} temporarily renders you unable to draw your sword]], until, in the respective games, you play the Song of Storms or step into light to remove the curse faster[[/note]]), Torch Slugs, Wizzrobes, Magtails and the occasional Lizalfos and Dynolfos. |
| 184 | ** [[ArrowsOnFire Fire arrows]] appear in multiple games, and can be used to light flammable objects, melt ice and burn enemies from safe distances away. Other fire-based power-ups include Din's Fire in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'', the Bombos Medallion in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast A Link to the Past]]'', Ember Seeds in the ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOracleGames Oracle Games]]'' and the Fire Rod in some 2D games (plus the 3D game ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Breath of the Wild]]''). |
| 185 | ** In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaI'' and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaALinkToThePast A Link to the Past]]'', nearly every attack Ganon uses involves fire. |
| 186 | ** ''VideoGame/ZeldaIITheAdventureOfLink'': Magos attack by conjuring up a flame on the ground that moves rapidly towards Link. |
| 187 | ** ''VideoGame/HyruleWarriors'': Fire-elemental weapons include Link's Magic Rod, Impa's Naginata, Lana's Summoning Gate, Darunia's Hammer, Volga's Dragon Spear, Tingle's Balloon, Linkle's Crossbows, and Toon Link's Sand Wand. |
| 188 | ** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'' has fiery variations of some of its enemies as one of the three elemental types, [[FireIceLightning along with ice and electricity]]. Most of them are found in the Eldin region, an active volcanic zone with lakes and rivers of lava. The main dungeon of that zone and its boss, Vah Rudania and Fireblight Ganon respectively, both wield fire powers as well, with Rudania's flames being hot enough to burn Link even with maximum fire resistance. Instead of the usual case of the fire power associated with offense and destruction, the "fire ability" Link gets from clearing this dungeon is a defensive energy barrier. |
| 189 | ** Fire-based bosses in the series include: |
| 190 | *** Volvagia, a large Eastern-styled dragon that attacks with an extended fire breath in ''[[VideoGame/ZeldaIITheAdventureOfLink The Adventure of Link]]''[[note]]known as Barba and fought as the game's sixth standard boss in the Three-Eye Rock Palace[[/note]] and ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]''[[note]]the [[BossSubtitles Subterranean Lava]] [[{{Dracolich}} Dragon]] fought in the Fire Temple as the fifth standard boss in Link's quest for the Fire Medallion[[/note]]. |
| 191 | *** The dinosaur-like Helmasaur King in ''A Link to the Past'', who can spit fireballs, which can split into more fireballs. Trinexx is a three-headed turtle/dragon whose red head can spit fire. Link must stun it with the Ice Rod before attacking it. |
| 192 | *** [[BossSubtitles Infernal Dinosaur]] King Dodongo, the second standard boss of ''Ocarina of Time'' found in Dodongo's Cavern, who can shoot out a powerful fiery breath, and there's a pool of lava [[spoiler:which he later rolls into upon his defeat, causing it to cool off and harden,]] sitting at the center of his arena. Link has to [[FeedItABomb toss a bomb into his mouth]] to stop him from using his fire breath attack, enabling him to strike him with his sword. He will then [[GetBackHereBoss roll around the room until he crashes]], at which point Link must repeat that process. |
| 193 | *** Koume, a [[WickedWitch witch]] with fire attacks, while her [[FireIceDuo twin sister, Kotake]], has [[AnIcePerson ice attacks]], then after a few hits, regardless of which sister taking the most hits, the two eventually [[FusionDance fuse together]] to become [[DualBoss Twinrova]], which has the combined powers of both witches. With the [[BossSubtitles Sorceress Sisters]] appearing as bosses in ''Ocarina of Time''[[note]]fought in the Spirit Temple as the eighth and final standard boss before facing off with Ganondorf[[/note]] and the ''Oracle series'' games[[note]]fought as the {{True Final Boss}}es along with [[HijackedByGanon Ganon]] in the Room of Rites after all 16 dungeons are completed and both Veran (''Ages'') and General Onox (''Seasons'') are beaten[[/note]], the gimmick of their boss fight is you have to reflect a blast of magic fired from one sister to the other; since Koume attacks with fire, [[KillItWithFire Kotake is]] [[WeakToFire weak to it]], and [[KillItWithIce vice-versa]], and then they fuse together afterwards. Despite the boss status in ''Ocarina'' and ''Oracle'', Koume and Kotake appear as allies in the Southern Swamp region in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaMajorasMask'', where the former is in charge of the Swamp Tourist Center and the latter owns a potion shop. |
| 194 | *** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker'': Gohma of Dragon Roost Cavern and Jalhalla of the [[BigBoosHaunt Earth]] [[UndergroundLevel Temple]], and both, ironically, originate from where the first Sage Link assists is found[[note]]this is due to Laruto, the former Sage of the Earth Temple who was murdered by Ganon and Jalhalla, carrying the same harp owned by Medli, a resident of Dragon Roost Island before realizing her destiny as the Temple's new Sage[[/note]]. Gohma, the game's first standard boss who was responsible for harassing the Sky Spirit, Valoo, sleeps in a pool of lava in the center of the arena and can shoot out a deadly breath of fire and has to have her shell destroyed so Link can [[EyeScream strike it in the eye]]. The Protector of the Seal, Jalhalla, the game's fifth standard boss, whose body is nothing more but a FloatingMask, until [[AsteroidsMonster 15 multicolored Poes fuse into it to form the enormous ghost]], can shake up its lantern to throw out fireballs that can damage Link or blow into the lantern to emit a flamethrower. [[spoiler:Both are later [[BossRush fought again]] in Ganon's Tower [[DarkReprise in black and white]], which is required to open the corridor to the tower.]] |
| 195 | *** ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess'': Twilit Igniter, Fyrus, the game's second boss fought in the Goron Mines, is actually the Goron patriarch, Darbus, who had been cursed with the power of the [[PlotCoupon Fused Shadows]] and unleashes a large fire wave during battle. [[BeatTheCurseOutOfHim Defeating Fyrus will revert Darbus to his normal self]]. |
| 196 | *** Scaldera, a rock monster who shoots large fireballs at Link, in ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword Skyward Sword]]''. |
| 197 | ** Fire-based {{Mini Boss}}es include: |
| 198 | *** The Flare Dancer, found in Fire Temple in ''Ocarina of Time'', which, with its flaming clothes, can attack with fireballs and circle around to leave a flaming trail. Link has to either extinguish its flaming clothes or pull the nucleus off its body to attack it. |
| 199 | *** In the ''Oracle'' games, while the twin witches count, ''Seasons'' has the miniboss of the [[LethalLavaLand Sword]] [[HailfirePeaks and]] [[SlippySlideyIceWorld Shield Maze]], Frypolar, who, while in fire form, shoots multiple fiery geysers that will harm Link upon contact. In its ice form, it attacks by creating pillars of ice rising from the ground. When Frypolar is in fire form, Link has to attack it with the [[KillItWithIce icy pillars]] [[HoistByHisOwnPetard it created in its ice form]], but when in ice form, Link has to damage it with [[KillItWithFire Ember Seeds]]. Link can also fire Mystery Seeds at it to make it change elements faster. |
| 200 | * ''VideoGame/LufiaCurseOfTheSinistrals'': Maxim specializes in the fire element. This is in contrast to [[VideoGame/LufiaIIRiseOfTheSinistrals the original game]], where he could use the basic elements ''except'' for fire for some reason. |
| 201 | * ''VideoGame/LunarTheSilverStar'': Alex has his magic potential unlocked at Black Rose Street in Meribia, granting him a natural talent for fire magic. This is removed from later remakes, which simultaneously replaced Mia's previous multiple-element black magic list with fire and [[AnIcePerson ice]] spells. Sequel ''VideoGame/Lunar2EternalBlue'' gave Mia's descendant Lemina the same dual affinities. |
| 202 | * ''Franchise/MassEffect'': ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'' and ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' give you several flame-based powers. Against the 80% of enemies who aren't [[MechaMooks robots]], these are the deadliest attacks in the games. |
| 203 | ** Incinerate: [[AnAdventurerIsYou Engineer and Infiltrator]] Shepard each get this as one of their basic powers, as do Mordin in the second game and [[spoiler:EDI]] in the third. Miranda gains it in the final DLC. |
| 204 | ** [[ElementalWeapon Incendiary Ammo]]: given to Soldier and Vanguard Shepard, as well as Grunt and Jacob in the second game and James in the third. |
| 205 | ** Inferno Grenade: Zaeed's bonus power in the second game, which you can give to Shepard after you unlock it, and one of Ashley's powers in the third game. |
| 206 | ** In the third game, Engineer Shepard's heavy melee move is him/her stabbing the enemy with a ''flaming omni-blade.'' |
| 207 | ** Also, in the third game, one of the upgrades for the Sentry Turret power (possessed by Engineer Shepard) gives it a flamethrower. |
| 208 | * ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'': [[ComicBook/XMen Phoenix]], [[ComicBook/DoctorStrange Dormammu,]] and [[VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins Arthur]] specialize in Fire attacks. |
| 209 | * ''Franchise/MegaMan'': This trope is applied to fire-oriented Robot Master. Such as Fire Man from the first game, Heat Man from ''VideoGame/MegaMan2'', etc. |
| 210 | %%** Fefnir from ''VideoGame/MegaManZero'' and, by extension, Mega Man Model F from ''VideoGame/MegaManZX''.%%Are examples how? |
| 211 | %%** The net navi versions of the above robot masters from ''VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork'' and the fire lion power up from ''VideoGame/MegaManStarForce'', which is also called Fire Leo (not related to the one listed below).%%How are they examples? |
| 212 | ** ''VideoGame/MegaManX'': Flame Mammoth, Flame Stag, Magma Dragoon, Mattrex/Burn Dinorex, Blaze Heatnix, Flame Hyenard, and Burn Rooster. ''X3'' is the only game in the series without a fire-elemental boss. |
| 213 | * ''VideoGame/MetaloidOrigin'': Erika, one of the {{Player Character}}s, can unleash a fireball as her special attack. |
| 214 | * ''VideoGame/{{Monark}}'': Those with the Authority of [[SevenDeadlySins Lust]] gain the power of Thermokinesis. One half of it allows the user to heat up their surroundings, shoot flames, and set fires. |
| 215 | * ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter'': |
| 216 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter2004'': |
| 217 | *** Yian Kut-Ku is a pink Bird Wyvern with a regal crest that can spit fireballs at their enemies, be it while standing still or while running. The expansion ''Monster Hunter G'' includes a subspecies that retains this attack, while the PSP version ''Monster Hunter Freedom'' introduces the related Yian Garuga, it too being capable of attacking with fireballs (but also with poison from its tail). |
| 218 | *** Basarios and Gravios are gargoyle-like Flying Wyverns capable of attacking with fire, but in different ways. Basarios, being only an infant, shoots small fireballs forward and can prepare a discharge of burning gas from its body to attack unsuspecting hunters; it can also shoot a prolonged fire beam from its mouth, but only when it's enraged. Gravios, meanwhile, can shoot a larger fire beam even when it's not too upset, and immediately afterwards release the burning gas from its belly to burn any hunter who attemps to cause it damage from below. The expansion ''Monster Hunter G'' introduces a black-colored subspecies of Gravios that can shoot the fire beam while aiming from one side to another, or even from down to up. Basarios wouldn't get a subspecies (Ruby Basarios) until ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter4''. |
| 219 | *** Rathian and Rathalos, being draconian Flying Wyverns, can shoot fireballs at hunters (be it in succession while aiming at different angles or as a single fireballs that explodes into a wider blaze). However, Rathian uses them more often when she's on land, while Rathalos shoots them more often while flying (and sometimes from an unreachable height and/or distance). Their respective subspecies and rare species, all of which debut in the expansion ''Monster Hunter G'', have these attacks as well. |
| 220 | *** Fatalis is a very powerful Elder Dragon that can shoot a large fireball at anything that tries to attack it. When it's enraged, it can shoot a ''massive'' fireball that can cause a OneHitKill to a hunter whose defense is too low. The expansion ''Monster Hunter G'' introduces the Crimson Fatalis (not a subspecies or variant, but still part of the Fatalis family), whose fire attacks are even more powerful. |
| 221 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter2Dos'': Teostra and Lunastra are a pair of leonine Elder Dragons that can spew a large fire breath, and do so while covering a wide area. When enraged, they prepare a slow load of fire energy that allows them to eventually unleash an exceptionally powerful fire explosion, dealing massive damage and inflicting an instant stun to all affected hunters. |
| 222 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterFreedom2'': Akantor is an enormous Flying Wyvern with the strength of an Elder Dragon that lives in volcanic regions. When it's enraged, it can perform a loud roar that causes the floor to experience mini-eruptions. However, its most powerful attack is a [[CastingAShadow huge torrent of dark Dragon-powered wind]]. |
| 223 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter3Tri'': |
| 224 | *** Qurupeco is a pelican-based Bird Wyvern that can attack with either fireballs spit from its mouth (created from its organic sac), or the fire bursts created by clashing the flints located in its wings. It can also cast other skills to heal itself, increase its attack or defense, make all surrounding enemies fall sleep, or even [[SummonBiggerFish call other large monsters]] like Rathian or Deviljho. |
| 225 | *** Agnaktor is a lava-dwelling Leviathan capable of firing a wide, powerful fire beam at its enemies, including hunters. Normally, it prepares this attack by clapping its beak and performs it in a forward line; but when it's enraged (or when it stops moving underground to return to the ground's surface), it aims the beam at a wider arc, making it more difficult for hunters to dodge it. |
| 226 | *** The expansion ''3 Ultimate'' introduces the Dire Miralis, a sea-dwelling Elder Dragon similar to Fatalis that can expel fiery rocks from its volcano-like back, and can also send them skyward so they rain like meteorites. According to the series' lore, Miralis can make the seas and oceans boil, and it's one of the most feared Elder Dragons in the world alongside Fatalis and Alatreon. |
| 227 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunter4'': |
| 228 | *** The base game only introduces one fire-based monster, namely Ruby Basarios which is a subspecies of the first-generation Basarios. It rarely uses fire in battle, as it has other things to attack with. |
| 229 | *** The expansion ''Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate'' introduces Ash Kecha Wacha, a subspecies that trades the water globules of the standard Kecha Wacha in favor of fireballs, which can shoot in succession at different angles. |
| 230 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterGenerations'': Glavenus, one of the [[EliteFour Fated Four]] flagship monsters (and often said to be their leader), not only can spew fiery fluids which explode shortly later, but also grind its sharp tail to perform a wide, powerful spinning burning slash with it. And while the tail remains red hot, it can also perform tail slams (sometimes twice in a row). |
| 231 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld'': |
| 232 | *** Anjanath is a territorial Brute Wyvern that attacks hunters and preys by spewing fire from its mouth, which is produced in its throat. |
| 233 | *** Bazelgeuse is, on principle, a Flying Wyvern that opts for attacks based on [[HavingABlast explosive power]]. However, the Blastblight ailment is only inflicted on other monsters, so the only effect the hunters receive from the explosive attacks is burning due to the ensuing fire. The ''Iceborne'' expansion adds the Seething variant, whose fiery attacks are far stronger. |
| 234 | *** Zorah Magdaros is a massive Elder Dragon capable of releasing large bodies of lava from its magamcores, though it does so without actively attacking anyone, as it's merely making way across the land it's roaming in. |
| 235 | *** Kulve Taroth is a massive Elder Dragon capable of exhaling superheated air, which it can use to melt resistant metals like gold and make the surrounding terrain a lot more difficult for hunters. |
| 236 | *** Xeno'jiva is a powerful Elder Dragon which, thanks to the bioenergy it consumes from the fellow Elder Dragons that approach it to die of old age, is capable of spewing exceptionally strong flames colored blue in the form of explosive bursts. However, it doesn't have a very good control of it, likely due to its relatively young age. However, its adult form introduced in ''Iceborne'', Safi'jiva, not only has greater control of fire as well as the ability to absorb the bioenergy that lies in its surroundings, but also a LimitBreak skill that allows it to imbue much of the surrounding area with blue fire, and after a while it spits a very small drop-like fireball that ''ignites everything around'', which can kill the hunters if they don't take cover. |
| 237 | ** ''VideoGame/MonsterHunterRise'': |
| 238 | *** Aknosom is a Bird Wyvern that shoots fireballs at different angles while standing, similar to Yian Kut-Ku or Qurupeco. However, whereas those other monsters' fireballs explode upon contact with the floor, the ones spat by Aknosom bounce and, as they do so, leave traces of fire behind. |
| 239 | *** Rakna-Kadaki is a large Temnoceran (a spider, namely the adult form of the smaller Rachnoids) that, while attacking predominantly with the silk it produces, can also spew a hot burning gas. The aptly-surnamed Pyre subspecies, which is introduced in ''Sunbreak'', can combine both traits: It shoots silk and then spews fire which goes through it. |
| 240 | *** The ''Sunbreak'' expansion adds, besides Pyre Rakna-Kadaki, other two subspecies capable of attacking with fire during combat, albeit each one does so in a different way or style: Blood Orange Bishaten replaces the poisonous and stunning fruits of its standard cousin with burning pinecones, which it can also maneuver with to trick its enemies; Magma Almudron trades the use of mud for the use of ''lava'', as it takes full advantage of its volcanic surroundings. Lastly, a post-release update adds Violet Mizutsune, a rare species that replaced the water-based attacks of the standard Mizutsune for violent fire attacks, derived from the oily secretion that can be ignited during battle. |
| 241 | * ''Franchise/MortalKombat'': |
| 242 | ** Liu Kang is fond of mixing fireballs with his Shaolin-style kung fu. |
| 243 | ** Scorpion is fond of breathing{{Hellfire}} (especially as a fatality). |
| 244 | ** Sonya Blade is also known for setting opponents ablaze with her signature fatality. |
| 245 | ** Shang Tsung and his penchant for hurling flaming skulls at people and sending gouts of fire shooting up at people during his fights (when he's not morphing into other fighters, that is). |
| 246 | ** Tanya and Kai from Mortal Kombat 4 also qualify. The former is an evil sorceress who can control fire and the latter is a Shaolin monk trained by the same order Liu Kang belongs to. |
| 247 | ** Taven and Daegon from Armageddon both possess fire abilities. They may have inherited these powers from their mother Delia, an Edenian sorceress who was known as the "Lady of Flame". |
| 248 | ** The aforementioned Delia created the ElementalEmbodiment of fire known as Blaze. |
| 249 | ** Goro, the sub-boss from the first game, can shoot fireballs. Originally, he shot them from his arm but ever since ''VideoGame/MortalKombat4'' he [[BreathWeapon shoots fire from his mouth]]. His fellow Shokan Kintaro shoots fire the same way. |
| 250 | * ''VideoGame/MoshiMonsters'': Diavlos' heads have pits of lava and fire in them, and firebugs can produce fire on the tops of their antennae, that runs on hot sauce. |
| 251 | * ''VideoGame/{{Neuro}}'' grants you several psychic powers, pyrokinesis being the last one. A single glance can turn mooks into a ManOnFire, though it's one of the most costly powers available. |
| 252 | * ''VideoGame/{{Nihilumbra}}'': Red burns anything that steps on it, including enemies, or you. |
| 253 | * ''VisualNovel/NinNinDays'': Sumire can perform a fire jutsu, which can allow her to blow fire from her mouth. She demonstrates it near the start of the game, and ends up burning a few bushes. |
| 254 | * ''VideoGame/OdinSphere'': |
| 255 | ** Velvet can use Fire Attacks in the remake. |
| 256 | ** All characters have access to "Blaze" or "Volcano" potions, which cause various fire-based effects. |
| 257 | * ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}'': Amaterasu's signature weapon is a flaming disc she carries on her back; she ''is'' the Goddess of the Sun, after all. She also gains the power to control fire from the God of Fire, Moegami. |
| 258 | * ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarOnline'' has the Foie spell line, which is one of the most useful elements due to how many enemies are either weak to it or at least don't resist it. The sequel ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarOnline2'' expands on the Foie spell line and is generally considered to be the best element for [[OurMagesAreDifferent Forces]] to put class points into. |
| 259 | * ''VideoGame/PlanescapeTorment'': Ignus has been turned into a living conduit to the Plane of Fire. And ''likes it''. |
| 260 | * ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'': Standard for all main games, one of the three starter Pokémon will always be Fire-Type, with the other two being a [[GreenThumb Grass-]] and [[MakingASplash Water-type]]. In picking a Fire-type as your starter, your rival will pick the Water-type starters, while if you pick a Grass starter, your rival takes the Fire-type. |
| 261 | ** Specialists of Fire-type {{Mons}} include Gym Leaders [[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Blaine of Cinnabar]] [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Island in Kanto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Flannery of Lavaridge Town in Hoenn]], [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Chili of Striaton City in Unova]][[note]]one of three Gym Leaders that must be fought, as a matter of fact, along with the green thumb Cilan and the splashy Cress[[/note]] and [[VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield Kabu of Motostoke in Galar]]; Elite Four members [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Flint of Sinnoh]] and [[VideoGame/PokemonXAndY Malva of Kalos]], as well as technically [[VideoGame/PokemonScarletAndViolet Crispin of the Blueberry Academy]]; and [[VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon Alolan Captain Kiawe]]. |
| 262 | ** All Fire-type Pokémon themselves also qualify, with certain Pokémon capable of using Fire-type ''moves'' like Flamethrower despite not being actual Fire-types (such as the Dragon Pokémon Dragonite). |
| 263 | ** In offense, Fire is one of the best types, thanks to its ability to do damage to Steel-type. In defense, is a bad type being weak to Water, Rock and Ground (all teams carrying Earthquake and Stealth Rock doesn't help). Improved slightly thanks to its new resistance to Fairy. |
| 264 | ** Usually Fire Pokémon have high Special Attack (there are some ones with high Attack instead) and usually decent speed. However, they usually have subpar defenses. |
| 265 | ** Fire is also one of the more common types for Legendary Pokémon. Examples include Moltres, Entei, Ho-Oh, Heatran, Reshiram, and Primal Groudon. |
| 266 | * ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'': Sure, psyblasts and levitation are probably more useful than pyrokinesis, but setting squirrels on fire with your mind is one of the best parts of the game. |
| 267 | * ''VideoGame/RedGoddessInnerWorld'': [[PlayerCharacter Divine]] starts the game with the ability to shoot fireballs. It allows her to destroy breakable walls and stun enemies. |
| 268 | * ''VideoGame/RivieraThePromisedLand'': The BlackMagicianGirl Cierra can use all kinds of magic, but her most powerful attacks are fire-based. |
| 269 | * ''VideoGame/RocoKingdom'', being a [[TheMockbuster mockbuster]] of ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'', has many of the same possible elemental types for the [[{{Mons}} pets]], including fire. |
| 270 | * ''VideoGame/{{Rosenkreuzstilette}}'': Zorne manifests this power in the form of creating [[StuffBlowingUp bombs]]. |
| 271 | * ''VideoGame/SamuraiShodown'': Kazuki, Kyoshiro, and Tam Tam. Kazuki's special moves all involve fire (except for Bust Kazuki, which is more about exploding), breathing fire is one of Kyoshiro's signature special moves, and Tam Tam can also cough up fireballs of varying intensity. Sieger's moves sometimes burn opponents, but that's because his gauntlet uses gunpowder. |
| 272 | %%* ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'': Yukimura Sanada, Shingen, Nohime, Chosokabe Motochika, Toshiie Maeda, Magoichi Saika, Hisahide Matsunaga, and Xavi. [[JokeCharacter Hideaki Kobayakawa]] may count as well. |
| 273 | * ''Franchise/ShinMegamiTensei'' franchise: |
| 274 | ** In general, Agi skills are some of the most common skills throughout the entire franchise. Depending on the game, you may get a fourth-tier, single-target fire spell either called Ragnarok or Trisagion. |
| 275 | ** Pyro Jack or Jack-o-Lantern is a fire-wielding cousin of the Atlus mascot Jack Frost, and just as ubiquitous across the franchise. |
| 276 | ** ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiIV'': Walter is fond of using fire spells when he's not using physical attacks. Preceding him was the Chaos Hero of ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiI'', who acted similarly. |
| 277 | ** ''VideoGame/DigitalDevilSaga'': [[MeaningfulName Heat]], who also happens to be a FieryRedhead. |
| 278 | ** ''Franchise/{{Persona}}'': As a staple element, there's at least one specialist in every game's party. |
| 279 | *** Yukino Mayuzumi and Yuka Ayase in ''VideoGame/Persona1'', though Yukino is branching out to several different elements. TheHero also ends up specializing in this. |
| 280 | *** In ''VideoGame/Persona2'', Yukino comes back, with [[TheHero Tatsuya]] and Katsuya Suou in tow. They all combine this with AtomicSuperpower. |
| 281 | *** Junpei Iori from ''VideoGame/Persona3'' has some fire magic with his Persona and is strong against fire spells, although he mostly uses physical attacks. Koromaru the dog applies as well; although his Persona also has [[CastingAShadow Dark-type attacks]], you'll probably see him using fire in most boss battles due to ContractualBossImmunity. Orpheus, the protagonist's initial Persona, also comes with fire attacks, but his practicality in battle expires fast and never gets better (outside of spinoffs like the ''VideoGame/PersonaQShadowOfTheLabyrinth'' series). |
| 282 | *** In ''VideoGame/Persona4'', Yukiko Amagi is the fire user, and unlike Junpei, she specializes in magic, so her fire hits hard. Particularly ironic, as the name Yukiko means "snow child". |
| 283 | *** From ''VideoGame/Persona5'', Ann Takamaki, a.k.a. [[CodeName Panther]], has a Persona who specializes in hard-hitting fire magic. Also, the DLC allows the protagonist to use Orpheus from ''Persona 3'' as well as a stronger version tailored to ''5'''s aesthetics called Orpheus Picaro. In ''Royal'', you can even use the female versions. |
| 284 | * ''VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia'': Fire is the element that draws from the Red Moon, and it also provides status buffs. [[TheHero Vyse]] has the second-weakest magical power in the game (the weakest being [[MightyGlacier Drachma]]), but he can learn all of the fire spells quicker than the others. And though Aika learns [[GreenThumb nature spells]] the quickest, all of her Super Moves are fire-based. |
| 285 | * ''VideoGame/ShantaeRiskysRevenge'': Shantae can get a set of fire magic that lets her cast fire balls and flamethrowers to burn her enemies with. |
| 286 | * ''VideoGame/ShovelKnight'': |
| 287 | ** The titular character can find the Flare Wand in Pridemoor Keep to throw little fireballs. |
| 288 | ** [[MadBomber Plague Knight]] takes this trope to [[{{Pun}} an extreme degree]], as his speciality is [[StuffBlowingUp explosives]], and his [[CanisLatinicus Explodatorium]] is full of these among slime. As a boss and as a playable character, he can use a kind of explosive that creates fireballs which stick to the ground and to the walls, and some of his bombs actually create a small fire. |
| 289 | * ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'': |
| 290 | ** Sonic can harness the power of the Red Wisp in the DS version of ''VideoGame/SonicColors'' and the 3DS version of ''VideoGame/SonicLostWorld'', which gives him the power to turn into a fireball, much like the fire shield from ''VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles''. |
| 291 | ** [[MeaningfulName Blaze]] the Cat from ''VideoGame/SonicRush'', a princess from an AlternateUniverse who is born with fire powers. She treats her powers as a curse at first, but eventually learns to gain proper control of them over time. |
| 292 | * ''VideoGame/StellaGlow'': As the Fire Witch, Sakuya can harness the power of fire to perform attacks during battle, and during the next few turns after one is landed onto an enemy it will suffer residual damage due to the burns. Also, her ultimate LimitBreak ability (which you can unlock once Alto maxes up his affinity with her) is Fiery Night, which lands a global fire attack to all enemies in the field, and on subsequent turns it also raises the CriticalHit chance for all playable characters present. |
| 293 | * ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' series: |
| 294 | ** Dhalsim breathes fire as one of his special moves. His ability comes as a gift of Agni, the Hindu god of fire. |
| 295 | ** Ken likes to set opponents ablaze with his Dragon Punch, while Fei Long does the same with his Dragon Kick. |
| 296 | ** In some games, Ryu can produce fire Hadokens as well. |
| 297 | ** ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'': Crimson Viper uses both fire and [[ShockAndAwe lightning]] in her special attack arsenal. |
| 298 | ** Akuma can produce the flame-encrusted Hadoken (in the regular ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' games) or Shoryuken (in the ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom'' series). |
| 299 | ** Gill, when he hits you with the fire half part of his body (the other half is [[AnIcePerson ice]]). |
| 300 | * ''VideoGame/SuikodenIII'': Whichever of the three main characters that inherits the True Fire Rune from "the Flame Champion". |
| 301 | * ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'': The series features many characters that attack with fire, and the number is prominent even if we only count those that aren't EvilLivingFlames to begin with: |
| 302 | ** ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros1'': |
| 303 | *** This game marked the debut of the famed [[PowerUp Fire Flower]]. Grabbing one allows Mario and Luigi to shoot fireballs from their hands, giving an alternative to the GoombaStomp. Spin-off games often give Mario fire abilities that don't require the Fire Flower to be activated. However, while Mario is consistently associated with fire, Luigi is just as likely to get a different element in contrast to his brother as he is to get fire. |
| 304 | *** Bowser's primary attack in this and many other ''Mario'' games is his fire breath. Depending on the game, he may either spit {{fireballs}} or continuously exhale the fire. |
| 305 | ** ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2'': |
| 306 | *** Among bosses, Birdo shoots fireballs when colored red, green or gray, though the red version also shoots eggs. Tryclyde spits {{fireballs}} en masse, being a three-headed serpent. Fryguy simply drops them off his body, being [[EvilLivingFlames a monster made of fire]]. |
| 307 | *** Among enemies, Pansers spit the fireballs upward (how they do so depend on their color: Green ones simply shoot them up while being stationary, red ones aim at wherever Mario and his friends are, and gray ones aim at them ''while moving''). A subspecies of Panser known as Volcano Lotus appears later in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'', shooting multiple small fireballs upward at the same time. Lastly, Shy Guys shoot fireballs when riding an Autobomb. |
| 308 | ** ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3'': Starting from this game, certain Piranha Plants start shooting fire at Mario and Luigi, instead of simply popping out of the pipes. The game also marks the debut of the Fire Bros., which shoot fireballs rapidly (as if they were using Fire Flowers) instead of throwing hammers, but they're very rare. Another new enemy is the Fire Chomp, which throws the fireballs attached to it at Mario and Luigi, and then self-destructs upon running out of them. |
| 309 | ** ''VideoGame/SuperMarioWorld'': |
| 310 | *** Some of the Koopalings (namely Iggy, Ludwig and Larry) attacks with fireballs, a rare sight in the series as they otherwise prefer using {{Magic Wand}}s (though Morton attacks both ways in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioMaker2''). One of the new enemies, Rex, attack with fire as well, only they don't shoot a fireball but exhale a fire breath. |
| 311 | *** Yoshi is capable of shooting fireballs after dragging a red Koopa shell into its mouth, while the red-colored specimen can do it with a shell of any color. This ability is seen again in the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS remake of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'', when Yoshi uses a flower. |
| 312 | ** ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy'': King Kaliente and Kamella attack constantly with fire, while Fiery Dino Piranha only does in the last part of its fight. |
| 313 | ** ''VideoGame/PaperMario64'': |
| 314 | *** The game's fifth boss, Lava Piranha, being a Piranha Plant adapted to live in a volcanic environment, uses fire to harm Mario during their boss fight. |
| 315 | *** Mario's second party member, Kooper, gains the ability Fire Shell when upgraded to Ultra-Rank. |
| 316 | ** ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor'': Vivian, an ex member of the Shadow Sirens, specializes in fire magic and two of her attacks can inflict burns on enemies. |
| 317 | ** ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheOrigamiKing'': The Fire Vellumental rules over fire and flame, and can release the fires burning its breast as great fiery gouts. After learning its shape, Olivia can used its fire breath attack to melt icy blocks, light flammable materials, and unleash a battlefield-wide fire attack. |
| 318 | * ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'': |
| 319 | ** Both Mario and Luigi can shoot fireballs (Luigi's are green). Mario's Final Smash in ''Brawl'' is a pair of fireballs in the form of a KamehameHadoken. |
| 320 | ** Bowser can breathe fire, while both Roy and Ike can deliver fire-powered slashes with their swords. [[VideoGame/FZero Captain Falcon]] uses his punch instead. |
| 321 | ** [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Charizard and Incineroar]], being Fire-type Pokémon, mostly use fiery {{Breath Weapon}}s and fire-infused physical attacks. |
| 322 | ** Mii Brawlers have two possible moves that involve generating flames around them, and their introduction portrays them emerging from a fire burst. The game generally associates Brawlers with fire, with Mii Gunners being associated with lightning and Swordfighters with wind. |
| 323 | ** Pyra attacks primarily with her fire-based blade, and many of her Smash moves are based on the fiery attacks she premiered in ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2'': Flame Nova, Blazing End, Prominence Revolt and the [[LimitBreak Final Smash]] Burning Sword (the other remaining move transforms her into Mythra, who uses light-based attacks instead). |
| 324 | %%** [[Franchise/StreetFighter Ryu]] also qualifies with his [[KamehameHadouken Shakunetsu Hadouken]].%%How? |
| 325 | * ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'': Three characters: the ArrogantKungFuGuy Hwang Yang Long and his Fire Elemental Lord Granveil from ''SRW Gaiden: Masou Kishin'' (also ''SRW EX''), AxCrazy Ignis and his Ruina mecha Impetus from ''SRW: Destiny'', and, finally, AloofBigBrother Altis Tarl of the Shura and his Shura God Mardikt. |
| 326 | * ''VideoGame/TalesOfDestiny'': Stahn Aileron thanks to the Swordian Dymlos, who also specialized in fire when he was still human. His son, Kyle Dunamis, is surprisingly more variative in element. |
| 327 | %%** ''VideoGame/TalesOfInnocence'': Ruca Milda. |
| 328 | %%** ''VideoGame/TalesOfHearts'': Amber Hearts. |
| 329 | %%** ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'': Largo and Guy's Mystic Artes. |
| 330 | ** ''VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia'': Although she ''does'' have access to spells of every element, Rita Mordio always defaults to casting Fireball in cutscenes, and it's implied in a few skits that it's her favorite spell to use in general. |
| 331 | ** ''VideoGame/TalesOfXillia'': Alvin can use all six elements, but his strongest attacks and his mystic arte use fire. Milla is supposedly a master of all elements but specializes in fire alongside wind, light, and lightning[[note]]Fire and Wind combined[[/note]] Agria of the [[QuirkyMinibossSquad Chimeriad]] is the fire specialist in their group and [[BigBad Gaius]] uses a fire-themed mystic arte despite his main element being light. |
| 332 | ** ''VideoGame/TalesOfArise'': Alphen, the main character, wields the Blazing Sword. He can link his normal skills with fire-based Artes. There are a few catches in this: |
| 333 | *** First, the Blazing Sword will damage him as well. At first, Alphen ignores this because he can't even [[FeelNoPain feel any pain.]] But later in the story, he's able to actually feel pain, but he learns to tank through this. |
| 334 | *** Second, the Blazing Sword can only materialize at the will of the heroine, Shionne. When Shionne is taken away from him, Alphen loses access to his fire-based Artes and has to depend on non-elemental ones. |
| 335 | * ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'': While the Pyro usually attacks using a regular a flamethrower, two of his taunts (Hadoken and Armageddon) have him seemingly creating fire from his own body. |
| 336 | * ''VideoGame/TelepathTactics'': The pyrokineticist class. In the campaign, Bloodbeard's bandits use pyrokineticists as their psy fighters of choice -- one of them, Rebecca [[MeaningfulName Flare]], can be swayed to your side. [[BigBad Tarion]] is a pyrokineticist himself. |
| 337 | -->'''Tarion:''' You are nothing but food. [[PreAsskickingOneLiner As befits raw meat, I will now cook you alive.]] |
| 338 | * ''VideoGame/TelepathRPG'': |
| 339 | ** One of the four elements that psy users can learn in the series is fire, this seem to be the main element for the Hero in the first and second game and to Guy one of the Hero's friend. |
| 340 | ** There is also the red spriggats who can [[BreathWeapon breath fire]]. |
| 341 | ** Despite being a species associated with [[CastingAShadow shadow powers]], [[spoiler:the queen of the shadowling, Nelis, knows a powerful fire attack.]] |
| 342 | * ''VideoGame/{{Temtem}}'': The Fire-type is fairly straightforward. Its attacks involve lava, meteors, and embers, and most Fire-types can be found in the Anak Volcano. |
| 343 | * ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'': Tianhuo and the rest of the half-dragon longmas can produce wings, a tail, and a mane made of flames. She can also use her [[VideoGameDashing Firecracker attack]] to out-maneuver opponents. |
| 344 | * ''Franchise/TouhouProject'': Several examples: |
| 345 | ** [[{{Immortality}} Fujiwara no Mokou]] is a human embodiment of a [[ThePhoenix phoenix]] and, in a few attacks, flings massive [[AnimalMotifs bird-shaped]] flame danmaku, flame bombs which have huge range, and simply tries to overwhelm you with fire. |
| 346 | ** Kaguya Houraisan, Mokou's deadly rival and fellow immortal, also has fire-related attacks, courtesy of her "[[ImpossibleTask impossible items]]" [[TheCollector collection]]. |
| 347 | ** [[SquishyWizard Patchouli Knowledge]] uses fire as one of her [[ElementalPowers seven elements]]. She also has a [[ThePowerOfTheSun solar element]] attack called Royal Flare which does basically the same thing on a grander scale. |
| 348 | ** ''VideoGame/TouhouChireidenSubterraneanAnimism'': |
| 349 | *** [[CreepyCrows Hell raven]] Utsuho Reiuji launches ''massive'' mini-suns at you. |
| 350 | *** [[{{Catgirl}} Rin Kaenbyou]] has control over fire (and zombies). For that matter, the entire Komeiji household is tasked with ''controlling HellFire''. |
| 351 | ** [[PersonOfMassDestruction Flandre Scarlet]] has [[Myth/NorseMythology Lævateinn]], which takes form of a [[FlamingSword flaming]] {{BFS}}. |
| 352 | ** [[UsefulNotes/{{Onmyodo}} Mononobe no Futo]] briefly shows it during one of her spellcards, as part of her "manipulation of Feng Shui" power. |
| 353 | * ''VideoGame/TheTowerOfDruaga'': Sorcerers cast spells that start fires. |
| 354 | * ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'': |
| 355 | ** Subverted with Akiha. The description of her power mentions the burning sensation as though you're on fire and that, if you can see it, it looks like thin burning red lines coming at you. She's [[{{Tsundere}} a bit]] of a FieryRedhead when using her power and is also prone to 'kill it now ask questions later'. However, her power is actually something called Plunder and ''apparently'' involves the absorption of life energy itself. |
| 356 | ** Vlov Arkhangel can generate flames that reach up to, and potentially beyond 3000°C, which damage even Arcueid herself. Essentially, this is akin to throwing the mantle of the Earth at someone. It takes Arcueid to manifest a special form tailored to handling Vlov's flames, only to be met with the [[AnIcePerson cold]] [[OhCrap realization]] that she's been [[IAmNotLeftHanded looking at it the wrong way from the start.]] |
| 357 | * ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'''s Toriel demonstrates this power in the intro when she [[BigDamnHeroes saves the Protagonist from being unavoidably killed by Flowey]] and in her BossBattle some time later, where all of her attacks involve fireballs. [[spoiler: This isn't limited to just her, either. Asgore, her ex-husband, also uses a lot of fire attacks. To a lesser extent, Asriel, the two's deceased son, can also use this, although he only ever uses a fire attack if the player allows him to take his turn quickly enough]]. |
| 358 | * ''VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe'': Fire Leo. Joe himself gets fire powers from using his fast forward ability. |
| 359 | * Dison in [[VideoGame/VisionsAndVoices Visions & Voices]] specializes in Fire skills. |
| 360 | * ''VideoGame/WarioLand'': |
| 361 | ** The Dragon Pot in ''VideoGame/WarioLandSuperMarioLand3'' is Wario's answer to Mario's Fire Flower. When picked up, it places a [[HatOfPower helmet shaped]] like a dragon on Wario's head. The helmet is capable of breathing flames capable of destroying enemies and blocks. |
| 362 | ** Two similar powers appear in ''VideoGame/VirtualBoyWarioLand''. The Sea Dragon Helmet blows a steady stream of fire from its nostrils so long as the fire button is held down. The Sea Dragon power can be combined with the Eagle power to become King Dragon Wario, which allows flight and breaths a powerful fireball. |
| 363 | * ''VideoGame/{{Warframe}}'': Fire is one of the four base elemental types, and has a chance to set enemies on fire for more damage over time. It is most effective against the Infested, who take double damage when they're affected, but is less effective against the Corpus, whose shields tend to halve the damage incurred by it. Any weapon can be modded to deal fire damage, many guns come with it by default, and the warframes Ember and Nezha use it almost exclusively. |
| 364 | * ''VideoGame/{{Wildermyth}}'': Mystics can interfuse with any open flame in order to manipulate the fire and use it as a weapon. With the right abilities, they can also use this power to enchant the weapons of other nearby heroes. The event-caused firesoul transformation gives the affected hero a flaming hand and the ability to generate blasts of fire. |
| 365 | * ''VideoGame/AWitchsTale'': Lyra's doll ability is to cast a powerful Volc spell. |
| 366 | * ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'': Pyrokinesis is [[TheHero Neku’s]] starting Psych and as the game goes on, his pyrokinetic abilities also grow, with him being able to shoot flaming orbs, manipulate streams of fire, summon combustions, set enemies on fire, summon a fire barrier to defend against enemies and call upon a rain of giant fire balls. |
| 367 | * ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'': |
| 368 | ** Warlocks and Mages both have a talent tree that specializes in fire damage. Shamans have some fire spells as well, although they primarily use lightning magic. Fire mages also tend to have much less survivability than Frost. |
| 369 | ** Ragnaros the Firelord and his fire elemental minions. His plane is even called the Firelands. |
| 370 | * ''VideoGame/WrathUnleashed'': Epothos, the Overlord Unit of the Light Chaos army, has power over fire. |
| 371 | * ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles2'': Any Fire-element Blade, of course, but Pyra is an exception. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation While in gameplay]] she works the same as any other Fire Blade, it's a plot point that she's not actually a Fire Blade; anti-Fire tactics (such as inundating an area with water to dampen the Fire-element particles in the air) have no effect on her. This is because she is actually a WillfullyWeak version of Mythra, a [[LightEmUp Light-element]] Blade. |
