Non-Cliche Pyromancer
Hey all,
Recently I was offered the chance to playtest my friend's homebrew system. It is very rules-light and has a freeform magic system similar to the Ars Magica or GURPS (noun-verb) casting. He really wants to test how pure mages compare to pure warriors, and I thought the best way to do this was to make a blasty fire mage. So:
1. Any non-cliche (no priest of fire that cleanses sins, no burned at a young age, no anger culminating as fire, no fire/dragons in the bloodline, etc.) character concepts and backgrounds for a pyromancer?
2. Creative/Fun ways to use fire spells that isn't hurling a ball of fire into enemies?
Thanks in advance for the replies!
