{{Quote|
Using Fire to destroy your enemies. This is a very potent offensive skill, including long-range and area-effect attacks, and even some Cold attacks for versatility. However, there are drawbacks: Fire Magic is extremely Power-intensive; all creatures generate extra Rage when they are burned; and many creatures have some resistance to fire.
}}
'''Fire Magic''' is taught by [[Velkort]] and allows for devastating damage output, at the cost of high power drain.

An interesting mechanic is that Fire Magic has a “Fire Wall” pet that just stands around and burns things. It’s implemented as a pet internally, but since it’s a wall, it can’t follow you around. It’s more like a trap.<ref>http://www.eldergame.com/2012/07/a-little-more-about-evil-undead-and-pet-classes/</ref> (it can also be killed by enemies)

===Mechanics===
* You can not fight with Fire Magic underwater!

===Research Ingredients===
The skill can be expensive due to the required ingredients used in spell research: [[Sulfur]], [[Saltpeter]] and [[Fire Dust]]. Note that researching is ''not'' a lottery, each recipe can only be completed a number of times so the amount of ingredients required is fixed. The research mechanic simply adds a little randomness to the order in which you receive the abilities.

Words of Power

2014-09-29T07:15:18Z

23.16.250.238: /* Word of Power 2 (Level 3) */

__NOTOC__
[[File:Word of Power (super jumping).jpg|thumb|right|300px|Words of Power can be fun!]]
'''Words of Power''' are randomly-generated sequences of phonemes. (For example, ‘Twimjot’, ‘Fledbydpal’, or ‘Chruggomdye’. The’re gibberish, but not completely random letters, so you can kind of figure out how they would be pronounced.)<ref>http://www.eldergame.com/2011/10/words-of-power/ Words of Power</ref> There are five levels of Words of Power at this time. Each harboring different effects, or varying degrees of power for some effects.

To use a Word of Power, just type it into the chat window (preferably nearby chat /n ). When spoken aloud, the word’s power is triggered and the word is used up, replaced with a new word. Words of Power only ever work once.

Power words must be MANUALLY recorded to either [[User_interface#The_Quest_Log|the notepad in the quest log]] or some outside document or is LOST FOREVER! (suggest to write it down in the Quest window notepad, that way you can quickly cut and paste it to chat when you are ready to use it).

====Hints====
'''Level 0 Words of Power''' can be very useful to new players. It often produces Teleports which will save time travelling (and even after learning Teleportation it may be a cheaper alternative to using up your Amethysts). Unlike Level 2, which produces lots of questionable effects like ''Leprosy'' or ''Fear of Water'' ... Level 0 tend to produce mostly useful effects. They are pretty cheap to produce and the Crab Meat can be processed from Raw Crab without a Cooking Stove nearby (ie. when you fish crab).
