- Ignis

Ignis is an ancient being and the embodiment of the Fire Element. He has been a major part of the lives of Argo Harper and Willow Adams.

## Biography

When the Big Bang occurred, the Elements were born. Ignis was one of the last of his sibling Elements to manifest, but he eventually became the unspoken leader of the group as he was the most authoritative. The Elements did have confrontations with the Celestials, but the two parties often came to a stalemates. The Elements retreated into their own plane of existence, where they chose hosts to walk among the galaxy. Ignis took a liking to humans on Earth and eventually led his siblings there.

#### The First Titan War

Ignis watched as Kronos consumed his children and took the throne of the Titans. Ignis followed Rhea's every move without her knowing, and was the first to see where an infant Zeus was hidden. He carefully approached Rhea and offered his assistance towards protecting the young god. Rhea agreed and left her child with the Elements so that he could be trained and raised around beings stronger and older than him. As Zeus became an adult, his power grew; as did his eagerness to take down his father. He called upon Ignis and requested his assistance in taking down Kronos, and Ignis not only agreed, but was able to convince his fellow Element siblings to join the cause. However, the Elements were unable to fight in their corporeal forms. They needed hosts. Each Element reached into the mind of a mortal and called upon them to complete their destiny. Zeus gathered the mortals and presented them to the Elements, who passed on a small portion of their abilities to the humans. One of the humans was much stronger, and so the Elements passed a piece of them into the mortal, who became the first Supreme Elemental.

The Elements and the first Elementals gathered with the forces of Zeus and his newly freed siblings (including Poseidon, Hades) to embark on the first Titan War. This became known as Titanomachy, an 11-year old conflict between the forces of the gods and Kronos. At the beginning of the battle, the Titans had the advantage as they had better weapons and more experience in warfare. However, with time, the gods also gained expertise in combat and acquired powerful weapons such as Zeus' Master Bolt, Poseidon's Trident, and Hades' Helm of Darkness. They also received assistance from the Elder Cyclopes and Hekatonkheires. Eventually, with these advantages, the gods emerged victorious.

## Physical Appearance

Ignis appears in two ways; the first is a wall of fire, his eyes indiscernible from the main body of flame. He usually appears in this form when in someone’s dream or vision. His other form is more solid. He appears to wear a red armor with a blue light in the center. The other lighted parts of armor are lit with flames. The shoulder pads are scaly, but end in flames. His armored midsection also has a scaly texture, possibly to represent that of a dragon. From those shoulder blades descends a cape made of fire. His head and face are smooth; no mouth or nose are visible through his helmet like visage. Four horns sprout from his head, the two front horns shaped like feathers, the back two smoothed out. His eyes are thin, fiery slits locked in a permeant stare.

## Powers and Abilities

Ignis has complete control over the element of fire. This means he can manipulate its intensity, size, temperature, and even color. He can even control wether it burns or not.

## Equipment

Ignis does appear to wear special armor, however it is unclear wether this armor is entirely his body or a covering. He does not have any other equipment.
