Abilities

Hot Under the Collar

Your body temperature rises dramatically as you emote intensely while interacting with someone. You can manipulate this energy, but if left unchecked, it will burn you alive.

(Low essence, Mid duration, Low cooldown)
The user's body temperature rises, fueled by their passionate emotions (anger, love, etc).
The user will gradually sustain severe physical damage over time if body temperature is not reduced.

Paired Action: Emote intensely, getting increasingly worked up as you interact with someone.

Searing Intensity

Your body temperature manifests as a commanding presence as you inspire allies and neutrals while intimidating your enemies.

(Low-Mid essence, Low-Mid duration, Mid cooldown)
The range of the effect scales with your body temperature.
Using this ability lowers your body temperature by a Low amount, but your body temperature may rise by up to a High amount by extending the Paired Action into a Turning Point depicting your character giving an impassioned monologue.

Paired Action: Stand tall, breathe deep, then yell out a rallying shout or battle cry. Extend into a Turning Point to raise you body temperature via a passionate monologue.

Controlled Burn

You gather your body’s heat into your hands, creating, shaping, and launching fire at will. More heat generates a more powerful effect however it is also harder to control.

(Low-Mid essence, Low duration, Low cooldown)
This ability’s essence cost scales with the amount of body heat used to fuel the ability.
Scaling examples: low, can light a candle; moderate, can shape a ball of fire; high, can shape a rough construct of a dog.
Using this ability lowers your body temperature proportionally to how much heat is utilized.

Paired Action: Using precise controlled movements, gather and concentrate your body's heat within your hands and carefully shape it.
