The Fire sphere resonances can be found here.

Overload Effects

In addition to losing all hit points, the Weaver(s) immediately suffer a roleplay effect which they continue to roleplay for as long as they wish. The effect should be fitting for the Fire sphere. Some examples include:

  • You spontaneously burst into flames briefly and roll around trying to put them out
  • Your blood boils 
  • You burn energy so fast within your body you collapse from exhaustion 
  • You suffer heat stroke and become desperate for water

Spellweaver Effects

A Spellweaver can call upon the power of the Fire sphere to perform a 10 second Rite that allows them to do small effects changing the colour of fire (OC with fire powders), colour of food cooked (OC with food dyes), or light a candle or small fire (OC with a fire lighting stick).

Ritecaller Effects

Ritecallers are trained to keep their cool and sharpen their focus even in combat. Any shared rite marked with this symbol * has its 30 second cast time reduced to 10 seconds.

The effect of the hex can be selected from the options below or be discussed and designed with the target. OC consent must be given to any hexes modified in that way, and the hexes should be roleplay-based within the flavour of the sphere, and not influence game mechanics.
If a hex is not delivered to the target within 10 minutes, the caster could choose to take it instead, or the caster could choose to go into overload.
Hex Options:
– Your mind can be fickle like a flame, rising anger, shifting focus, focusing on next things to achieve.
– Occasionally, you feel as if you are walking on hot coals.
