Fire Spells

*This Circle draws power from heat and flames. Its destructive powers are second to none, with a plethora of offensive spells and mind-altering enchantments. Purely offensive, any boons granted by Fire come at a price.*

*Spells in the Fire Circle draw on the elemental energies of Fire. The power of chaos gives birth to explosive flames that consume the body or uncontrolled thoughts that confuse the mind.*
