This discipline causes the target creature or object to erupt in flames.
The pyromancer's rank with this discipline cannot exceed his rank with the Discipline of Pyrogenesis.
If the target fails to save, it is reduced to a pile of ashes. However, the discipline will have no effect on an entity whose willpower is equal to or greater than the pyromancers’. If this discipline is used against an object, it bursts into flames. If the object is not normally flammable, the flames will die out immediately with no effect to the object. If the object is flammable, it will continue to burn in a normal manner until extinguished by other means. The maximum area that the pyromancer can affect is determined by their rank, as indicated below.
