Ignis

Ignis (Latin for "Fire") is the Fire Elemental Glyph and represents the power of the Fire element. Several variations of this glyph exist, including the base Ignis (casts Flames or the Ignis spell depending on the game), Vol Ignis ("Fire Will") and Ignis Rufus ("Red Fire"). Albus's Quadruple Ignis kick attack also utilizes an Ignis glyph.
==Game specific information==
===Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia===
Shanoa can equip two kinds of Ignis Fire Glyphs as a Main or Sub Glyph in Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia:
*Ignis: The regular Ignis glyph, called simply "Flames" by Shanoa, causes three small fireballs to be launched forward quickly with limited range. One goes straight, one angles upward and one angles downward.
*Vol Ignis: Vol Ignis, which Shanoa calls "Raging Blaze", causes a pillar of flames to erupt from the ground in front of her.
Fire Glyphs can be paired with another type of glyph to perform the following Glyph Unions:
* Another Ignis Fire Glyph (Union Ignis) - Shanoa summons two streams of flames to shoot forward, whose angles move up and down in a wave-like pattern, crossing through each other. 
* Any Grando Ice Glyph (Evanescere) - An ice crystal with a fiery center to be formed which moves forward slowly. A fireball and an ice crystal ball also move forward, which travel up and down and criss-cross each other with it toward the end of the screen.
* Any Weapon Glyph (Mars) - Shanoa swings a large fire sword overhead.
Albus is able to perform a fire embued air kick Quadruple Ignis as a boss and as a playable character. In Hard Mode, Albus can use the normal Ignis glyph during his boss fight, along with Grando and Fulgur.
===Castlevania Judgment===
An Ignis attack can also be performed in Castlevania Judgment by holding the special button while attacking in the air. It resembles the Union Ignis game from Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. She usually yells out "Burn!" during this attack.
===Castlevania: Harmony of Despair===
The normal Ignis is Shanoa's initial glyph in Harmony of Despair. It functions the same way as in Order of Ecclesia and can be absorbed from Aliorumnas when she casts it. It consumes 15 MP per use and can be upgraded to level 9 by continuous usage. Its range gets longer as it levels up. 
===Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls===
Shanoa is able to use an Ignis Rufus ("Red Fire" in Latin) Lance Glyph in Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls, which uses Piercing Heat II, a Fire version of her Piercing Spear attack. During this attack, her flaming spear strikes forward above, forward, and forward down in a manner reminiscent of Shanoa's Ignis glyph's attack from previous games. Albus is able to use his Quadruple Ignis kick.
