* BoyfriendBlockingDad: Averted. Owen's daughter, Haley, ''thinks'' he's being one when he asks about a boy she was talking to who's possibly interested in her, and that it'd be sexist if he didn't act this way for her brother, Doug, if he talked to girls. He says that's not the case and he trusts her to be her own person.

He eventually becomes the first practitioner of Fire Power in decades to create a real fireball.

In the present day, Owen is an unassuming family man, content with his wife and two kids. What happened to Owen and why he left the temple isn't known, but his past begins catching up with him...

!!Tropes applying to ''Fire Power'':
* CoolOldGuy: Wei Lun is both a kind and patient mentor and also a grumpy old man. He's also not shy about his appreciation for technology and produced goods, in contrast to what you'd expect.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: The first issue reveals that [[spoiler: Ling Zan]] died at some point after the end of the prelude.
* FireForgedFriends: Owen and Ma Guang. Guang starts out as someone who bullies Owen for being an outsider, but after an act of kiddness of Owen, begins being nicer to him. After they fight off the Scorched Earth Clan, they become better friends, and by the time of the present day stories, despite their estrangement after Owen left the temple, they're still friends.
* FlatEarthAtheist: To a degree with Ling Zan. She initially doesn't believe that it's possible to create a fireball, that the statue of Master Shaw was once a human or that there's a dragon locked in the temple. This is in a setting where they can cook things with their bare hands.
* HappilyAdopted: Owen makes it perfectly clear that looking for his birth parents has nothing to do with not being happy with his adopted family. When we meet his adopted parents in issue 1, they are entirely wholesome and kind.
* OverProtectiveDad: Averted. Owen's daughter, Haley, ''thinks'' he's being one when he asks about a boy she was talking to who's possibly interested in her, and that it'd be sexist if he didn't act this way for her brother, Doug, if he talked to girls. He says that's not the case and he trusts her to be her own person.
* RefusalOfTheCall: When Guang tracks Owen down in the present to ask him to return to the temple after [[spoiler: the disappearance of Wei Lun]], he refuses, content with his current life.
* TimeSkip: Fifteen years between the prelude with Owen at the temple and him in the present in peaceful suburbia.
