6	->''"The medley of burning flesh and metal. How sweet is that aroma! Some call it pain and chaos, but it is progress plain and simple. I know you are not yet ready to appreciate it. I know it is frightening. You must burn away those parts of yourself that cannot love the smell of progress. Burn them utterly and savour the stench. All my followers do. It makes them strong. It makes them make me strong. If Pyro did not bring them progress, they would cast him aside and find a new god. That is as it should be."''

9	A God of Fire is a [[StockGods Stock God]] who commands [[PlayingWithFire fire]] and/or [[MagmaMan volcanoes]]. Their position in the pantheon food chain varies; sometimes they might be the TopGod (this is usually the case if they are also a [[ThePowerOfTheSun Sun God]]), one of several high-ranking gods or a mid to low-tier deity.
10
11	In regards to temperament, fire deities are likely to be as [[PersonalityPowers volatile as the element they command]]. However, it is also possible for them to be portrayed as kind, gentle and nurturing, [[FireOfComfort reflecting how fire provides warmth during the cold and light in darkness.]] Some fire gods may also play a hand in the development of civilization by teaching humans how to utilize fire for their needs or may even be the ones who created humanity.
12
13	In terms of aesthetic, a God of Fire is likely to have FlamingHair or be totally WreathedInFlames. They may also be LivingLava. May overlap with AppeaseTheVolcanoGod or ChekhovsVolcano, though not all such volcano gods are gods of fire or volcanoes in general. A God of Fire may also share a pantheon with a LordOfTheOcean -- in which case, expect an ElementalRivalry and some FireWaterJuxtaposition.
14
15	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]], 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.
16
17	Sun Gods do not count as this trope unless they are stated to be Gods of Fire as well as the sun; for those deities specifically, see GodOfLight. Demon lords or [[GodOfTheDead underworld deities]] who command fire do not count as this unless it is in their title.

86	** Prometheus is considered the Titan of fire, but he is really a [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] version of this trope as his actual domain was forethought, and he became associated with fire because he stole fire from the Olympians and gave it to the humans.

95	** Some have theorized that Loki is also a god of fire or may have originally been one before being reinterpreted as a TricksterGod.

Both give their Servitors a wide palette of abilities focused on manipulating flame.
114	* ''TabletopGame/LaNotteEterna'': Bakraag is the ChaoticEvil god of fire.

118	** While not specifically a god of fire (she is associated with zeal), Hazoret from the Egypt-inspired Amonkhet is made from the essence of the Second Sun and uses fire magic most frequently.
119	* ''TabletopGame/{{Ponyfinder}}'': Blaze, the god of the sun's destructive power, is primarily associated with fire. She radiates heat like a bonfire, and grants her worshippers the ability to temporarily shroud their weapons in flame.
120	* ''TabletopGame/WarhammerFantasy'': Dazh is the Kislevite god of fire, the sun, and hospitality, who is said to have first shared fire from the sun with humankind. His priests [[ReligionIsMagic wield magic]] related to [[PlayingWithFire fire]] and {{light\|emUp}}, and his lay followers take pride in their hearth fires as symbols of his blessing.

122	* ''TabletopGame/WorldTreeRPG'': Flokin is the Noun god of Pyrador, fire magic. He's notable for his temperamental, proud, and destructive personality, which he employs in his secondary job as the World Tree's security guard slash cosmic bouncer against unwanted extradimensional intruders.

125	[[folder:Theatre]]
126	* ''Theatre/TheRingOfTheNibelung'': The eponymous ring makes Loge the god of fire, with Wagner's text playing on the German word "Lohe" (flames).

It is eventually revealed that both of them are [[PiecesOfGod the two halves of]] [[DragonsAreDivine the Yorae Dragon]], an immensely powerful god that was split into two weaker beings by the summoning ritual that brought it into existence.
131	* ''Videogame/BrutalLegend'': Ormagoden, The Eternal Fire Beast & Cremator of the Sky, claims fire as one part of his godly portfolio alongside blood, noise, and metal. His arrival in the world bathed it in burning light that offended its original inhabitants, the First Ones, who decided to quench his divine fire in mud. The world the game takes place in is said to be [[GiantCorpseWorld all that remained of Ormagoden's body afterwards]].
132	* ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'':
133	** [[TopGod Gwyn]], the Lord of Sunlight, is associated with fire, though not as much as he is with lightning and the sun. Interestingly, the association is due not to his inherent power, but because [[spoiler: he sacrificed himself in the First Flame.]]
134	** The Witch of Izalith was the first being to properly control the natural flame as a weapon, which her daughters inherited, and would later become the human magical practice of Pyromancy. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, they started playing with fire a bit too much, transforming the daughters into abominations and the Witch herself into the Bed of Chaos, the origin of all demons.]]

136	* ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'': In installments where the classic [[SummonMagic summoned monsters]] lean more divine, such as ''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXI XI]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXI XV]]'', Ifrit fills the role of fire god.
137	** In ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV'', the pantheon of the Twelve features two gods for each element, with Azeyma and Nald'thal representing fire. Each represents a different aspect of the element, with Azeyma being [[ThePowerOfTheSun a Sun God]] and Nald'thal representing the fires of [[TheAlmightyDollar wealth]] and [[GodOfTheDead the Underworld]]. This is in addition to Ifrit's presence as a [[{{Tulpa}} primal]], who is at one point summoned explicitly for his qualities as an ElementalEmbodiment of fire.
138	* ''VideoGame/FlightRising'': Flamecaller, goddess of the Fire Flight, is obviously one of these. Although her theming leans more towards lava than direct fire and she’s also an UltimateBlacksmith.
139	* ''VideoGame/GenshinImpact'': Murata the [[PlayingWithFire Pyro]] Archon is one of the [[PhysicalGod Seven Archons]] who rules over the nation of Natlan. She is described as [[BloodKnight living for the thrill of battle, hence her title as the "God of War"]]. Additionally, the Travail trailer hints at her having a [[ThePhoenix phoenix]] [[AnimalMotif motif]] as evidenced by the Chapter V title "Incandescent Ode of Resurrection", as well as Dainsleif's quote: "''the victors shall burn bright, while the losers must turn to ash''". Her other nickname is "Lady of Fire".
140	* ''Videogame/HeroesOfMightAndMagicAshan'': Arkath is one of the [[DragonsAreDivine Six Dragons]], and is the ElementalEmbodiment of fire.

144	** ''VideoGame/MortalKombatArmageddon'': [[LivingLava Blaze]] becomes one in this game. Originally an elemental created by the Edenian sorceress Delia, Blaze was supposed to prevent the Armageddon as well awake and guide her sons Taven and Daegon. However, Blaze is [[TheCorruption corrupted]] in part thanks to Onaga's followers imprisoning him as the guardian of Onaga's egg, which changed him from a flame-like human to a HumanoidAbomination. Blaze serves, being the FinalBoss of ''Armageddon'' and with his powers will grant the salvation or damnation to the one who defeats him. [[spoiler:It was intended to be Taven as was prophesized, but in the end, the winner is Shao Kahn whose provoking the Armageddon, prompts Raiden's efforts to change the timeline and [[VideoGame/MortalKombat9 restart all over to stop this fate from coming to pass]].]]
