Chaos Pyromancer (4e Paragon Path)

Chaos Pyromancer

“	I have offered my humanity to the flame, and used that flame to fill the void it left.	”
—High Witch Quelaag, Spellscarred Human Sage, The Book of Immolatus, Volume 1

Prerequisite: Sage with Charisma score of at least 18.

Sages of the waking world have their own unique philosophies. For some, there is meticulous planning, deep thought, and careful analysis, not so much a lust for power as a lust for the means to an end. For you, however, this is not the case. You may be one of those that seek power for its own sake, or simply wish to embrace the true feeling of passion that fiery destruction provides. These mindsets have led you to become a Chaos Pyromancer, a sage who has forgone their clarity and sense of self in favour of joining themselves with the very flames they conjure. Your fire, weighed down by careless stochastic chaos, may travel slower, but clings on to your enemies until it has devoured their humanity as well, rendering them soulless, immolated husks.

Chaos Pyromancer Path Features

Chaos Pyromancy(11th Level): All of your encounter and daily attack powers with the Fire keyword have their range reduced by 2 squares if they are area bursts or ranged attacks, or their bursts reduced by one square if they are close bursts. Ranges cannot be reduced to less than one square. They now deal ongoing fire damage to hit targets equal to half of your Charisma modifier(save ends).

Consume Action (11th Level): You can spend an action point to recharge one of your daily powers instead of taking an extra action.

Antichaotic Funnel (16th Level): If one of your attack powers hits a ally, you may choose to take the damage that the power would do in place of that ally as a minor action.
