Changes: Pyrokinetic

Latest revision as of 13:02, 15 February 2024

Pyrokinesis is the ability to control fire. It is also the only ability to be banned, a status which may be changing. Most elves are distrustful of Pyrokinetics after what happened with Fintan and Brant.

History[]

The earlier Council, possibly including Fallon Vacker, outlawed Pyrokinesis after five Pyrokinetic elves died in an incident thousands of years ago, involving Everblaze and Fintan. The Council also wants to prevent that elves manifest as Pyrokinetic by automatically ranking the marriages of all direct relatives as a Bad Match to prevent the inheriting of the ability. It's also forbidden to do any tests where students feel heat during the Ability Detecting and no one manifested since then, except Brant and Marella. Fintan originally agreed to the decision, though he now says he regrets it.

Known Pyrokinetics []

Fintan Pyren[]

Fintan is known for creating Balefire and Everblaze. He was a Councillor (at the same time that Bronte was an Emissary) until pyrokinesis became forbidden. Fintan was involved with a group of five other Pyrokinetics attempting to make Everblaze. Fintan was the only one who successfully sparked Everblaze and lived. Due to the death of the other five Pyrokinetics involved, Pyrokinesis was banned. Fintan voted in favor of the ban and resigned as a Councillor. His mind was broken by Sophie and Alden in an attempt to retrieve information about the fires in the Forbidden Cities. He is also the Pyrokinetic who discovered Everblaze. However, they were able to find out that Fintan illegally trained another Pyrokinetic, Brant. In Book 3: Everblaze, Sophie heals his shattered mind, but he kills Kenric with Everblaze. He was captured in Nightfall. As of Flashback, he wants to train Marella to keep her from going down the same path that he did.

Brant[]

Deceased

Brant (formerly Jolie's fiancé) was the unregistered Pyrokinetic trained by Fintan. He was a member of the Neverseen before his death and was responsible for setting the fires in the Forbidden Cities. He was also responsible for Jolie's death. He was one of the few Pyrokinetics capable of igniting Everblaze. Grady forced Brant to burn off his hand during their confrontation in Everblaze. Brant was killed by Mr. Forkle at the end of Lodestar when Lumenaria was collapsing.

Marella Redek[]

After Mr. Forkle uses mental energy to trigger Marella's ability, it is revealed that she is a Pyrokinetic. This is revealed in Book 6: Nightfall. It is said that her Pyrokinesis seems to be particularly strong, based on mental energy. She keeps this ability a secret, as Pyrokinetics are banned. Edaline Ruewen likes the idea of Marella learning to use the ability, stating that Marella should learn how to control it, as Brant was "messed up" by his inability to control his pyrokinesis.

Two exiled Pyrokinetics mentioned in Neverseen[]

Nothing is known about them other than the fact that they are currently in Exile.

Five unknown Pyrokinetics seen in Fintan's mind[]

Deceased

These are the five Pyrokinetics that were consumed by Everblaze after Fintan sparked it. One of these five was a close friend of Luzia Vacker and their death resulted in her being one of the most outspoken advocates for Pyrokinesis being banned.

Twelve known Pyrokinetics[]

It is mentioned in Keeper of the Lost Cities that there are only about twelve known Pyrokinetics in the elvin history.

Trivia[]

Pyrokinetics cannot be burnt with any fire, except for Everblaze.
Pyrokinetics have a substantially hotter body temperature than normal elves, allowing them to withstand colder temperatures for longer amounts of time.
Pyrokinetics are sometimes unstable if being held back from fire for too long. Brant and Fintan were described as unstable, and often times they were dangerous.

Known Types of Fire[]
