Powers: Pyrokinesis - Can control fire (but can't create it); Thermal Vision

Primary Weapon: Whip-Sword, named Drakenstaart. A 29" blade sword capable of extending the blade into a segmented whip-like form reaching up to 15ft long.

Secondary Weapon: Deagle

Armour: Bullet Proof Vest, Bullet Proof & Flame Resistant Duster

Equipment: Smoke Grenades, Molotove Cocktails, Incendiary Deagle Rounds (in addition to normal: I have 2 Deagles, 1 loaded with normal rounds, the other with incendiary), Pyrotex Gloves (x2 pairs), Matches, Lighter

Information:
Pyrotex/Ignition Cloth Gloves - These gloves are made out of a special material known as Protex cloth.
This fabric, also known as Ignition cloth, is synthetically manufactured, from various materials by Spectrum to create a spark akin to a match when the fabric itself is rubbed together.
The gloves themselves are flame reistant.
Using these gloves, Blaze can simply snap his fingers to create a spark.

Why do i get the sneaking suspicion that you like fire?

So your like that guy from the movie X-Men 2 that likes to play with fire lol

I think you have just a bit too much explosive power.... keep ur fire stuff, but get rid of the c4, grenades and maybe even smoke bombs.


Question: to what extent of your heat power can you control.... is it like u can manipulate people's body temp and remove it from someone into someone else? do you need the fire to start with (eg ur lighter only has limited lighter fluid - meaning short burn, and match is a tiny flash?)

Btw i think we are only allowed 2 skills - so heat manipulation, thermal and fire control is sorta 3. since the heat part is a slight bit op (hmm lets see, that tarmac over there has been in the sun the whole day - move that heat to some poor guy's face *ouch*)

yeah, you've got a point there james, controlling heat and controlling fire are technically 2 different powers

Pyrokinesis is the bility to control the kinetic energy of atoms to generate, control or absorb fire. 1 ability the ability to control heat and fire is what it can do

My ability is almost Pyrokinesis with 1 major difference, I cannot CREATE heat or fire, I require a source to begin with, which is why my equipment includes such tools.

Yeah my power would theoretically include the capacity to manipulate body heat, but I'm not going to do it, ever, also:
My ability to manipulate heat as you so define it is limited by how well the particles can conduct fire. If i wanted to manipulate heat across a metal object, it would be easy, but ojects like wood, plastics, ceramics, paper, rubber are bad fire conductors and thus would require significant effort to use heat manipulation on.
This means that Carbon, what the human body is made of, is a bad conductor and therefor while I could manipulate body heat etc it would require far too much effort for me to use easily, regularly, or even to bother with at all.
So no, I cannot move the heat from the tarmac to some guys face, oxygen and carbon are bad for conducting heat, way too much effort.

My ability to control fire is limited by size and speed, so is the heat, as in I can't simply make things explode on command, thats far too much fire too fast.
A good example of my fire manipulation is my capacity to throw fireballs, they would be about the size and speed of a baseball.
I can put fires out, but that is the limit to my ability to remove heat / fire. However I can sustain (without need for fuel) and spread fire, but as I said, limited by size and speed, I cannot instantly spread fire to engulf an oncoming army or even small squad, maybe if I had some time I could try, but it would be ridiculously draining and not worth it.
The main purpose of my ability to control fire is to set my main weapon on fire and to throw fireballs and also to put fire out if need be.

oh and I already cleared my ability with fade

sounds good mate, that makes sense

So basically, the only way that he could control heat is if he used fire to make more heat?

Because heat can be generated from anything, not just fire.
If he were able to control heat without the use of fire, that would have been 3 abilities.

I had to read it several times >

But everything has heat, theoretically, just not very much. What's the limit as to when you can start moving it? 30 degrees? 40?

uhh I didn't really think about it that way, by moving it I mean the way heat energy can move from one substance to another, but yeah I suppose I would also be able to heat things up and down a bit. Hadn't really thought anything specific for that. All I know is I didn't want to restrain myself to the point of saying I can only shift X amount of heat or change it by X degrees, instead I thought of more that, the limitation is how quickly I can do something. Haven't got any numbers for you really but I would also have to have a limit to it, for both the heat and fire.

For example my standard fireball is the size and speed of a baseball, I can summon it rather quickly, if I had a bit of time I could increase its size to say a basketball? but it wouldn't be something I could do quickly enough in combat. At the same time I wouldn't be able to sit there and just eventually build up a ridiculously sized fireball, no spirit bombs here

The idea was to limit myself in combat based on speed, so that out of combat, given time I can do more, but that too would obviously need a limit. Does that help?

Made an edit, I took out the ability to manipulate Heat.
After having a look at my conversation with Fade, apparently we didn't actually discuss it, so for now at the very least, its gone.
