History Main / GodOfFire

** ''TabletopGame/LaNotteEterna'': Bakraag is the ChaoticEvil god of fire. Mortals have a complicated relationship with him; his flames are a welcome respite in [[TheNightThatNeverEnds the endless night]], but he needs to be carefully placated to keep his fires from becoming wild and destructive.

A God of Fire's worldview and morality can cause this trope to overlap with various others. They may be a very specific and powerful example of an ElementalEmbodiment. Some fire gods might be TheMaker or the UltimateBlacksmith, using fire to [[TheFlameOfLife fill the world with life]] or to sponsor metalwork and industry. Others might play up the destructive aspects of fire and serve as a DestroyerDeity. Good fire gods will likely be a source of SacredFlames and use fire [[FirePurifies to purify]] or to [[FireOfComfort provide comfort]], while evil gods are likely to be an example of EvilIsBurningHot, and may even go so far as to be a SatanicArchetype, a master of HellFire and/or the ruler of a FireAndBrimstoneHell.

* ''LightNovel/IsItWrongToTryToPickUpGirlsInADungeon'': Hestia and [[GenderFlip Hephaestus]] are both referred to as goddesses of fire, with Hestia being the goddess of the hearth and Hephaestus the goddess of the forge. Their respective familia emblems both symbolize fire as a source of comfort and a tool of one's craft.
