Pyronite

**Pyronites** are a species from the star Pyros.

## Appearance

Pyronites are a humanoid plasma-based species that are composed of a bright inner plasma body covered by volcanic rocks. As fire-based entities, their bodies radiate high amounts of heat. Their feet have a slight oval like design with only two toes and one back toe.

Pyronites are mostly colored yellow, orange, or red. Others are colored pink or blue. Some Pyronites are even colored white.

Infant Pyronites are much smaller and thinner, and child-aged Pyronites have oversized heads and higher voices.

Female Pyronites look the same as male ones.

Elderly Pyronites are slightly hunch-backed and are colored either blue or white.

## Abilities

* **Pyrokinesis-** Pyronites have the ability to produce and manipulate solar energy and fire from their body. They can form fire into any shape that they choose, commonly fireballs, they are also capable of breathing fire, enhance their punches with flames, and superheat their own temperature to discomfort foes.
	+ **Heat Generation-** Pyronites can generate enough heat to melt a tank.
	+ **Heat Absorption-** Pyronites can absorb fire or heat that comes in contact with them.
	+ **Explosive Fire-** Pyronites can make their fire more explosive for extra power and increase their area of attack.
	+ **Pyrokinetic Flight-** Pyronites can release fire through their hands and feet to propel themselves off the ground, like a jetpack.
	+ **Limited Pyroportation-** Pyronites are capable of teleporting small distances by covering themselves in a swirl of smoke.
	+ **Supernova Creation-** When angered, Pyronites are able to reach supernova level temperatures that can amplify the heat to the point of vaporizing water and melting rocks.
* **Fire Immunity-** Being made of solar plasma and solid volcanic rocks, Pyronites are immune to flames, magma, and other forms of heat.
* **Ice Immunity-** Pyronites are cold resistant and ice proof thanks to the heat they generate.

## Weaknesses

* **Extinguishment-** When exposed to a substance that can extinguish fire, they won't die, but their fire abilities will be suppressed.
* **Crabdozer-** The Crabdozer is a Pyronite's natural predator, due to their saliva being capable of putting out their flames.

## History and Society

Due to the fact that Pyros is a planet-like star, Pyronites have had limited contact with other alien species.

With little outside contact, the Pyronites have been able to spend their whole lives perfecting their abilities.

## Etymology

The name Pyronite comes from "pyro-" relating to heat/fire, and "-nite" from ignite.

## Trivia

* Pyronites do not wear clothes because they have difficulty wearing them.
* A few coats of Pyronite wax can make anything completely fireproof.
* If a Pyronite wanted to wear an ID Mask, they would need a special one designed to be heat-resistant.
