Pyrokinesis is an ability of witches to conjure, manipulate and extinguish fire through their mind. Witches commonly use this basic power to light candles and can also use liquids (e.g. alcohol, water, etc.) as an accelerant; as such can be used in destructive offensive magic. This power can also be activated through a spell though commonly performed non-verbally, is evoked through the Latin-based term "Incendia". Controlling or extinguishing flames, which requires more focus, typically require a verbal spell. Witches have also used this power to affect temperature and cause heat to rise on or within an object or individual.
While every witch can utilize pyrokinesis or fire spells, Pyromancers are a unique and rare class of "fire-breathing" witch. Little is known about these witches, though they are few in number with only a few dozen remaining in East Asia.
Pyrokinesis is a subsection of Elemental Control.
