Cooldown: 50 rounds

Pyrokinesis is a mental mutation that allows the player to heat nearby areas with their mind, dealing damage to and increasing the temperature of those within.

Pyrokinesis grants the "Toast" activated ability, which when used, will prompt the player to pick a tile to cast the ability on. This tile must be a visible square and cannot be further than 8 tiles from the player.[1]

Using Toast will create a 3x3 area of *shimmering heat that lasts for 3 rounds, centered on the chosen tile. Any creature that ends their turn within the shimmering heat will suffer heat damage and a significant temperature increase as determined by mutation level. Three different damage rolls are calculated for all 3 rounds that the shimmering heat is active, where the damage rolls get higher every round. After 3 rounds, the shimmering heat will disappear.

Formulas

The following formulas are used to determine damage (rounded up) and temperature increase based on mutation level.[2]

Damage (Round 1)
(Level)d3 / 2
Damage (Round 2)
(Level)d4 / 2
Damage (Round 3)
(Level)d6 / 2
Temperature Increase
(310 + 30 × Level) / 2

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.

Advantages

  • Deals remote damage and can increase temperature, causing creatures to catch on fire
  • Decent area of effect
  • Lasts for multiple rounds before disappearing

Disadvantages

  • Very high cost at character generation
  • Relatively poor range
  • Creatures will often path around the shimmering heat if it isn't cast directly on top of them
