Some of the subclasses are very powerful as it is based off a series with very powerful characters. Ask your DM if you can use the subclass you want to use if you believe it may be overpowered. Also this class does have spoilers for the anime/manga Fire Force as this class has the abilities of characters introduced in the manga that haven't been in the anime.

The main class features are finished (unless I change one or two things) and the subclasses that are currently on the page are finished. I'm still working on getting every other pyrokinetic from Fire Force in this which will take awhile.

Pyrokinetic

A Pyrokinetic is someone who can utilize fire for combat and can sometimes use fire to create other things like electricity, plasma, and magnetic fields. There are 3 generations of Pyrokinetics. The first generation become flaming beings with little sentience who’s only objective is to kill, which happens via Spontaneous Human Combustion, or SHC. The second generation can manipulate fire in many ways but aren’t capable of creating it, so they have to create it themselves in some way or use their enemy’s fire. The third generation can create fire but can’t manipulate it besides certain ways that depend on what type of ignition power they have.

Creating a Pyrokinetic

The 8 Pillars of Adolla source, [1]

Ignition Ability

At 1st level, you get an Ignition Ability, which allows you to wield fire in different ways. First, pick between 2nd Generation and 3rd Generation. Then choose an Ignition Ability from the ones listed in the Generation. You gain the features from this Ignition Ability that you would unlock at 1st level. You gain more features from this at 3rd, 7th, 11th, 15th, and 20th levels.

Flame Points

The abilities granted to you by your Ignition Ability are fueled by the oxygen flowing through your body which is represented by Flame Points. You have an amount of Flame Points to spend equal to 3 times your level plus your Constitution modifier. You regain all of your flame points during a long rest and half of your maximum during a short rest.

Ignition save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier

Ignition attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Constitution modifier

Tephrosis

You have a limited amount of oxygen in your body meaning you aren’t able to use your Ignition Ability infinitely. Using an Ignition Ability too much depletes your oxygen supply and if you use it too much your body starts turning to ash in a process called Tephrosis. You can use Flame Points beyond your maximum but for every 5 Flame Points you use you lose 5 maximum hit points that cannot be regained by any means except from spells of 8th level or higher and you take 1 damage for every Flame Point used above your maximum.

Martial Arts

You’ve trained to fight with anything you can to support your flames, to include your fists.

• You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your Unarmed Strikes.
• You can use a d4 in place of the normal damage of your Unarmed Strikes, which increase as you gain Pyrokinetic levels as shown in the Martial Arts Die column of the Pyrokinetic table.
• When you take the Attack action with an Unarmed Strike on your turn, you can make one Unarmed Strike as a bonus action.

Generation Ability

Both generations have a certain trait which all Pyrokinetics within those generations have. At 2nd level, depending on what Generation you picked at 1st level, you get a new ability. If you picked 3rd Generation you get resistance to all Fire damage from any source. If you picked 2nd Generation you have advantage on all saving throws against Fire damage and attackers have disadvantage on attacks that deal Fire damage as long as you can see the attacks and effects.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 6th, 8th, 12th, 14th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Hand Signs

At 4th level, you’ve learned how to shape your hands in ways that affect the flow of ki in your body, strengthening your flames, even if you are 2nd Generation. For 5 Flame Points, as a bonus action, as long as you have at least one open hand, you can make one of the following hand signs to improve the next pyrokinetic ability you use. You can only have one hand sign in effect at a time.

Tiger

You enhance your firepower, making them deal more damage. You increase the ability’s damage die amount by 2.

Boar

You enhance your fire output, making them larger. You double the area of effect/range of the ability.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. The number of attacks increases to three when you reach 17th level in this class.

Hysterical Strength

At 8th level, you’ve learned to utilize the hysterical strength of the fight or flight response in combat. When you reach a third of your maximum hit points, you enter a state called the Press of Death. While in this state, your martial arts damage die increases by 1 tier, your unnamed strikes and unarmed strike equivalent attacks (pyrokinetic abilities that replace unarmed strikes and natural weapons) have +2 to attack and damage rolls, and you gain a +2 bonus to your AC. This state ends once you are no longer in combat or you have health above a third of your hit points.

Adolla's Grace

At 9th level, you can attain the grace of Adolla, granting your flames an extra boost via a connection to the Adolla dimension, a dimension of flame, but only for a second. When using a pyrokinetic ability, you can connect to Adolla for an extra 15 Flame Points, increasing the damage die amount by 3, the area of effect/range doubles, you have advantage on attack rolls, targets have disadvantage on saving throws, and the critical hit range increases to 18-20. These can be stacked with hand signs.

Breath of Life

At 10th level, you learn to hear the Breath of Life in attacks. As a bonus action, for 6 Flame Points, you can enter a special state where you focus on the breath of your attackers for 1 minute. While focusing you have disadvantage on attack rolls but all attacks against you are made with disadvantage and you have a bonus to your AC equal to half your Proficiency Bonus as long as you can hear the attacker. This state ends if you become deafened by any means. You can spend 3 Flame Points at the end of the duration to keep up this form for another minute.

Improved Hand Signs

At 13th level, your usage of hand signs has improved greatly. You can now use any hand sign as a free action to enhance the next pyrokinetic ability you use but they now cost 8 Flame Points to use. You can down cast your hand signs to cast the basic signs to spend less. The previous hand signs improve, and you gain an additional sign as well, as listed below.

Improved Tiger

You are able to further enhance your firepower, greatly increasing the damage done by your flames. You now increase the ability’s damage die amount by 4.

Improved Boar

You are able to further enhance your fire output, greatly increasing the size of your flames. You now triple the ability’s area of effect/range.

Ox

You can enhance the heat of your flames, making them more difficult to withstand. Creatures have disadvantage on any saving throws caused by your ability.

Press of Death

At 15th level, you have fully mastered the hysterical strength of the fight or flight response to the point where you can use it at any time. You can enter the Press of Death state as an action. If you each a third of your maximum hit points you end the Press of Death state if you are already in it and enter the True Press of Death state making your martial arts damage die increase by 2 tiers, your unnamed strikes and unarmed strike equivalent attacks (pyrokinetic abilities that replace unarmed strikes and natural weapons) have +4 to attack and damage rolls, you gain a +3 bonus to your AC, and you have advantage on saving throws. This state ends once you are no longer in combat or you have health above a third of your hit points.

Third Eye

At 17th level, you can open your 6th chakra gate in your forehead, opening your third eye, as a bonus action for 3 Flame Points. This lasts for 1 minute and you can spend 1 Flame Point every minute after that first minute to keep it active. While your third eye is open you can look into other dimensions and planes of existence.

Adolla Burst

At 18th level, you can not only obtain temporary grace from Adolla for a second but can effectively extract flames from Adolla and use them for longer. For 20 Flame Points as an action, you can utilize the flames of Adolla increasing the damage die tier by 4, the area of effect/range triples, you have advantage on attack rolls, targets have disadvantage on saving throws, and the critical hit range increases to 17-20. These can be stacked with hand signs but not with the Adolla’s Grace feature.

Mastered Hand Signs

At 20th level, you have completely mastered the use of hand signs putting you among some of the strongest Pyrokinetics ever. You are now able to use hand signs with no action required, but they now cost 10 Flame Points and can still be down casted like usual. You can also now use two different hand signs at a time but cannot use two of the same. Your hand signs improve even further, and you learn a new one.

Mastered Tiger

You enhance your flame’s firepower to the absolute limit, significantly increasing your damage. You increase your ability’s damage die amount by 5.

Mastered Boar

You enhance your flame’s fire output to the max, significantly increasing the size of your flames. You quadruple the area of effect/range of your ability.

Improved Ox

You further enhance the heat of your flames making them much more difficult to withstand. Creatures have disadvantage on any saving throws caused by your ability, and you have advantage on attack rolls with your ability.

Serpent

You enhance the unpredictability of your flames, making them much more difficult to defend against. The crit range of your ability increases by 1 (20 to 19-20 etc.)

2nd Generation Ignition Abilities

Absorber

An Absorber absorbing a hit from a Devil's Footprint user, source [2]

Instead of controlling and manipulating flames you can absorb kinetic energy and turn it into fire that is temporarily stored in your body for you to release via special attacks.

Absorption

At 1st level, you treat your Flame Points as Potential Flame Points, meaning you have none of your own, but you do have a maximum you can gain. Whenever you take damage, you can use a reaction while being hit with any physical attack to reduce the damage by your Constitution modifier. The damage that is reduced is turned into Flame Points. You have an amount of extra reactions equal to your Proficiency Bonus + your Constitution modifier that can only be used for this feature. All Flame Points are lost at the end of a short or long rest.

Release

At 1st level, you can release the kinetic energy you have stored through certain abilities. There are 3 abilities. If you have used Absorption within the last 2 turns you cannot use any of these abilities. If you have used any of these abilities within the last 2 turns you cannot use Absorption. You can spend an amount of Flame Points on these abilities up to your Constitution modifier. X equals the amount of Flame Points spent on the ability.

• Punch/Counter: You yell out “PUNCH!” and make an unarmed strike against a creature. On a hit, you deal your normal unarmed strike as well as an amount of fire damage equal to xd6. You can use this as a reaction to being hit as well. If you do so you instead yell out “COUNTER!” and deal an extra xd4 fire damage instead of d6. Punch and Counter count as unarmed strikes for the purpose of action costs and reactions against you.

• Walk/Stomp: As an action, you yell out “WALK!” and move up to your movement speed while causing explosions under your feet with each step. Every 5ft you move you cause an explosion making every creature within 5ft of you make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they take xd8 + your Constitution modifier fire damage and half as much on a success. You can also direct this on a single creature that is prone replacing an unarmed strike causing them to take the damage if you hit.

• Clap: As an action, you yell out “CLAP!” as you clap your hands in front of you. Every creature 10ft in front of you must make a Dexterity saving throw taking xd8 + your Constitution modifier fire damage and half as much on a success.

Superior Attacks

At 3rd level, you are able to release energy better through your attacks. When you make an attack roll with a Release ability you can spend 5 extra Flame Points to gain advantage on the roll. These extra Flame Points do not count towards the damage.

Improved Absorption

At 7th level, your body is able to store more kinetic energy from each attack. You can now reduce damage from physical attacks by your Constitution modifier added twice.

Improved Release

At 11th level, you are able to release far more kinetic energy with each attack. You can now spend your Constitution modifier added thrice Flame Points on Release abilities.

Quicker Absorption

At 15th level, you can absorb energy faster than normal. You now have a number of extra reactions for Absorption equal to your Proficiency Bonus + your Constitution modifier added twice.

The Reflector

At 20th level, you have become the ultimate reflector, able to absorb any blow and throw the force right back at them with ease. You can now reduce damage by your Constitution modifier added thrice and you can spend up to 4 times your Constitution modifier Flame Points on Release abilities. Also, you gain the ability to, once you reach your Flame Point maximum, not attack any further until you have an amount of Flame Points up to double your maximum and release all of the energy absorbed as an action. When you use this action, you automatically spend all Flame Points you have on a massive explosion from your body dealing xd12 fire damage that bypasses resistances and immunities to all creatures in a 120ft radius from you. After using this you immediately die and can’t be brought back by anything except the wish spell or the Shinrabansho Man feature in the Devil’s Footprint subclass.

Thermo-Acoustic Cooling

You are able to turn flames into sound waves and turn those sound waves into ice by filtering them through a tuba-shaped instrument.

Thermo-Acoustic Refrigeration

At 1st level, you are the only Pyrokinetic who deals with ice alongside fire. You start with a tuba-shaped instrument with a handle in the middle and a handheld bell. As a bonus action or reaction to a fire-based spell being cast or a flame-based attack being made, you can ring the bell, and you can have any amount of fire within 30ft concert into sound waves and enter your instrument. This costs 1 Flame Point per 5ft cube of fire converted. You must be holding the instrument, and you must be able to ring the bell to use it. This ability doesn’t work if, for whatever reason, sound cannot exist where you or the fire is. For every Flame Point spent you gain 1 Frost Point. Frost Points are used to fuel your other abilities instead of Flame Points. You can have a maximum of 30 Frost Points at a time and lose them all at the end of a short or long rest. The instrument can also be used as a weapon dealing 1d8 bludgeoning damage.

Frost Summoning

At 1st level, you can spend Frost Points to use the sound waves inside of your instrument and turn it into ice. You gain use the following abilities:

• Ice Spike: As an action for 2 Frost Points, you can summon a big spike made of ice and throw it at someone. Make a ranged spell attack against a target within 45ft. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 + your Dexterity modifier piercing damage.

• Freeze: As an action for 4 Frost Points, you can freeze an object within 45ft, to include water. You encase the object in ice in any way you like if your DM approves. You can also use it on creatures for 6 Frost Points forcing them to make a Constitution saving throw. On a failure, the creature is petrified in ice. You can also use this as a reaction to being targeted by a projectile for 6 Frost Points.

Ice Shield

At 3rd level, you can make a shield out of ice to protect you and your allies from attacks. As a reaction for 5 Frost Points, you can make an Ice Shield, and the attack will target that instead of you. The Ice Shield has an amount of hit points equal to your Constitution modifier + your proficiency bonus. You can also use this ability to shield any creature or object within 30ft of you.

Upgraded Tuba

At 7th level, you can talk to a blacksmith to upgrade your tuba. For every 10gp you spend you can increase the maximum Frost Points your tuba can hold by 10. For every 15gp you spend you can increase the melee damage of the tuba by 1 tier to a maximum of 3d6. These prices are in total (If you spend 30gp your melee damage increases by 2 tiers and your maximum Frost Points increase by 30). Your DM can regulate the regularity and price of this feature as you go on. Also, when taking a short rest, you only lose half instead of all frost points.

Ice Weapon

At 11th level, for 8 Frost Points as a bonus action, you can blow your tuba to coat yours or your team members weapons in ice. This lasts for 1d4+1 turns. While this is active the weapon does an extra 1d8 cold damage. At 15th level this increases to 2d8.

The Great Spikes of Ice

At 15th level, your Ice Spike becomes more powerful than before, allowing you to make many spikes at once. As an action for 15 Frost Points, you can shoot ice spikes in a 10ft radius centered on a point within 60ft of you. Everyone in that radius must make a Dexterity saving throw taking 6d8 + your Dexterity modifier cold damage, and half as much on success.

Area Freezing

At 15th level, as an action for 10 Frost Points, you blast ice straight at the ground, freezing it. The surrounding area in a 60ft radius becomes difficult terrain. When you use this every creature of your choice may either be affected by Freeze or take 4d6 cold damage, your choice.

Frost Blast of the Tuba

At 20th level, as an action for 25 Frost Points, you blow ice out of your tuba so hard that it’s deafening to the ears. All creatures besides you in a 20-foot radius must make a Constitution saving throw. On failure, they take 8d6 cold damage and become deafened and paralyzed for 1 minute. On success they take half as much damage without the effects. You may also spend an additional amount of Frost Points up to your proficiency bonus for each additional frost point spent add an extra d6 for each additional Frost Point spent.

3rd Generation Ignition Abilities

Devil's Footprint

A Devil's Footprint user showing off his flames, source [4]

Your ignition ability allows you to expel flames from your feet, allowing you to fly and enhance your kicks with flames and propulsion.

Flame Flight

At 1st level, you can expel flames from your feet granting you the ability to fly as a bonus action for 1 Flame Point. This grants you a flying speed equal to double your walking speed which lasts for 10 minutes and can be maintained by spending 1 Flame Point at the end of the 10 minutes to add an extra 5 minutes.

Flame Kick

At 1st level, you can replace an unarmed strike to make a kick empowered by your flames for 3 Flame Points on a creature within 30ft of you. This attack deals bludgeoning damage equal to your martial arts damage and additional fire damage equal to 1d6 + your Constitution modifier. When you use the Tiger hand sign with this ability, it effects the fire damage only.

Flame Boost

At 3rd level, as an action for 5 Flame Points, you can move up to four times your walking speed. You can also make an unarmed strike attack against a creature during this movement. This attack deals an extra 1d6 for every 5ft you have moved during this movement. After you make the attack the movement stops.

Extra Hand Signs

At 7th level, you learn two new hand signs that, instead of enhancing your flames making them stronger, cause your flames to be expelled in a different manner. You gain the following 2 abilities. These abilities cannot be enhanced by hand signs until 20th level.

• Rapid: You tighten your flames making you much faster. You can use Flame Kick and spend an extra 5 Flame Points to make it a Rapid, increasing the range to 90ft and making the fire damage deal 2d6 + your Constitution modifier added twice.

• Corna: You cause a quick and powerful explosion at your feet while attacking. You use the Flame Kick and spend an extra 5 Flame Points to instead cause an explosion decreasing the range to 5ft and making the fire damage 3d8.

Lightspeed Kick

At 11th level, when you make a Rapid attack empowered by the Adolla’s Grace feature or while under the effect of the Adolla Burst feature, you can spend an extra 8 Flame Points to go so fast that your cells deteriorate then travel back in time to a point before they deteriorated making you invisible. The fire damage increases by 4 damage die and adds your Constitution modifier thrice, but you have disadvantage on the attack roll. Creatures cannot take reactions to this attack or its movement. At 17th level, you no longer have disadvantage, but you do not have advantage.

Improved Flame Flight

At 15th level, you’ve bettered your Flame Flight significantly. You can now use Flame Flight for free at will and now as a bonus action for 3 Flame Points you can make your flying speed quadruple your walking speed for 1 minute.

Shinrabansho Man

Note: This is obviously far too powerful for dnd so ask your DM if you can have this. If you can’t then get the below feature which I made for this class specifically so that players don’t miss out on a whole feature simply because it’s too powerful. For this reason, I didn’t bother trying to balance Shinrabansho Man because even if I did it would still be far too powerful.

At 20th level, you have conquered the power of hope, essentially making you a god. For 30 Flame Points as an action, you can enter the Shinrabansho Man state, granting you several abilities. You have an infinite amount of Flame Points. Whenever you are attacked, targeted by a spell, or forced to make a saving throw you rewind time over and over until you succeed. You can take any spell directed towards you and use it to create something in the world such as an atmosphere, terrain, civilizations, and so on. You can also turn water such as tears or rain within 360ft into the souls of the dead. You can then return these souls reviving anybody that can be brought back via the wish spell as long as their soul hasn’t been completely erased. You can also strike the ground and cause plant life to grow.

Mastered Devil's Footprint

At 20th level, you have fully mastered your ignition ability, allowing you to use it with its full potential. Your Flame Flight’s base speed is now triple your walking speed and when you use Improved Flame Flight you boost it to quintuple your walking speed. You can use Lightspeed Kick without the Adolla’s Grace or Adolla Burst features but when you do it costs double. When using your Improved Flame Kick, you can an extra 5 Flame Points to add your unarmed strikes damage twice.

Knight King

A Knight King readying his mighty Excalibur for battle, source [5]

Your ability is powered by your wild imagination, whether in a good way or bad. You believe yourself to be a knight king and a slayer of dragons. (Feel free to change the knight king part to whatever you want. The premise is that it’s based on your imagination so have fun with it.)

Excalibur

At 1st level, you carry the mighty Excalibur wherever you go which is a sword hilt made out of the legendary Orichalcum metal found in the regular department store that you use as a plasma blade to fight. As a free action for 1 Flame Point, you can summon plasma protruding from the hilt to form the blade of a longsword that deals 2d6 fire damage instead of its normal damage and it loses its versatile property. You can use a hand sign when you activate the sword causing that hand sign to effect the sword until you deactivate it. All features and attacks that use Excalibur requires Excalibur to be activated to use unless it says otherwise.

Violet Flash

At 3rd level, as an action for 5 Flame Points, you can move up to your movement speed to a target you can see and make a quick slash attack against them. Roll to hit with advantage. On a hit, you deal your Excalibur damage + 3d4 + your Constitution modifier fire damage.

Mini-Excalibur

At 3rd level, during a long rest for 10gp each you can make small pocket-sized Excaliburs that can be used as welding tools or to cut locks open and such and deal 1d4 fire damage each. These can only be used 1 time each because after use they melt from the heat of your plasma.

Non-Self Nirvana

At 7th level, as a bonus action for 4 Flame Points, you can clear your thoughts completely and enter a state of Nirvana as your body seems to move on its own which lasts for 1 minute. While in this state your thoughts cannot be read, and you cannot be mind controlled in any way. You also have advantage on all attack rolls while enemies have disadvantage on attack rolls against you. The downside to this is that you must define your enemies before entering this state because those defined enemies are the only enemies you can attack, and you can only make simple attacks with Excalibur and Violet Flash attacks on said enemies. This feature does not require Excalibur to be activated but you can’t activate it once you enter the state, and you can’t make attacks without it activated while in this state.

Improved Violet Flash

At 11th level, you have improved your Violet Flash attack making it quicker and stronger. You can now spend 10 Flame Points instead of 5 on a Violet Flash to make it the improved version. The improved version has a movement range of double your movement speed and it now deals your Excalibur damage + 3d8 + your Constitution modifier added twice fire damage.

True Excalibur

At 15th level, you can pay a blacksmith (who’s willing to play along with your imagination) 100gp to make an Excalibur out of actual Orichalcum (that isn’t actually Orichalcum) that deals 2d12 fire damage that ignores resistances and immunities instead of 2d6 and you can activate it without using any type of action.

The Violet Flash

At 20th level, you can bring out your power by undergoing a “rigorous” trial. Discuss with your DM what the trial is. Once you pass the trial you gain the following features which can only be used with True Excalibur:

• Teleportation: You can call upon the heavens to carry you anywhere on the plane teleporting you to a location within the plane as a full turn action for 20 Flame Points.

• Lightning Accumulation: You can choose for your Excalibur to deal lightning damage instead of fire damage or split it however you want. You can also walk on thunderclouds while your Excalibur is activated.

• Violet Flash Descent: Whenever you make a Violet Flash attack you can spend an extra 8 Flame Points to add 2d6 + your Constitution modifier lightning damage to the total damage.

• Violet Flash: Eight-Fold Strike: Whenever you make a Violet Flash attack you can spend an extra 15 Flame Points to make it a critical if it hits.

• Excalibur Beam: You can shoot a beam from your Excalibur giving it a reach of 360ft.

• Magic Item Creator: You can turn mundane items into magic items by believing that they have magical properties. Talk to your DM about what items you could give certain effects and what the effects are. Only you can use the item with these effects.

• Steeled for Death: You can enter the True Press of Death state as a bonus action.

• Violet Flash: Earth Divider: As a full turn action, you make a Violet Flash attack spending 50 Flame Points to make the target make a DC 45 Dexterity saving throw taking 30d12 fire damage that bypasses immunities and resistances as you slash the world itself in half. You can only use this while in the True Press of Death state.
