### Served by

* Any mortal being of weak will who strayed too close and laid eyes upon it.

## Abilities

* **Eldritch Physiology**: **S'Gah-Zab, The Smouldering Ignitor** is an eldritch abomination, a being whose very existence defies the rules of nature and/or existence and is defined by its disregard for the natural laws of the universe as we understand them. He wielded godlike powers and are, for the most part, not bound by the laws of the universe. Its true form could not be grasped by mortal beings and was interpreted differently by different individuals/species, with others creating a collective delusion of their form. These interpretations can range from the unusual to the awe-inspiring, to the mind-shatteringly terrifying. It is rare, but not unheard of, for the presence of such a being to benefit the universe it currently inhabits.
	+ **Alien Mind**: The inner workings of a **S'Gah-Zab's** mind differ greatly from what could be considered "normal" or "sane" by the standards of most living things.
	+ **Contagious Influence**: **S'Gah-Zab** could taint those around him with a physio-psychoactive influence that can twist and warp their very appearance and mindset to whatever **S'Gah-Zab** desires.
	+ **Fanaticism Inducement**: **S'Gah-Zab** could induce fanaticism, the belief in something with uncritical zeal, or with an obsessive enthusiasm.
	+ **Incomprehensible Form**: **S'Gah-Zab** possessed a true form that others cannot grasp with their mind.

### Personal Powers

* **Fire Manipulation**: **S'Gah-Zab** can generate, shape, and manipulate fire, the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products, flame being the visible portion of the fire. Usually depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire's intensity would be different but because of him being a Cosmic Horror, his flames were always a fuchsia in color. He could also completely control the temperature of the fire at will.
	+ **Fire Generation**: **S'Gah-Zab** was able to generate and project fire.
	+ **Fire Immunity**: **S'Gah-Zab** was immune to fire, being completely invulnerable to direct and indirect effects.
	+ **Fire Negation**: **S'Gah-Zab** could negate fire and any fire-using attacks, ignoring their effects on himself and stopping their effects on creatures, objects or places, such as stopping a building from burning down.
	+ **Heat Accumulation**: **S'Gah-Zab** can store and accumulate heat from any source. They can utilize the energy for any purpose. They can unleash it all at once upon the point of release, convert its form, project it in various ways, and much more.
	+ **Heat Generation**: **S'Gah-Zab** can increase the kinetic energy of atoms, meaning they effectively make things hotter, ranging from slightly warm levels to absolute hot. Given how advanced **S'Gah-Zab's** Pyrokinetic abilities are he can easily generate fire and emit fire from himself.
	+ **Heat Manipulation**: **S'Gah-Zab** can create, shape and manipulate heat by increasing the kinetic energy of atoms and thus making things hotter, ranging from subjective feeling of heat to absolute hot. This enables **S'Gah-Zab** to control kinetic energy on an atomic level.
	+ **Primordial Fire Manipulation**: **S'Gah-Zab** could create, shape and manipulate fire of an ancient primordial nature. As opposed to regular Fire Manipulation, these flames are inextinguishable and absolute. As such, they can cause natural and supernatural fire effects such as Crown Wildfires, Firestorms, Solar Flares, Hypernovas and Heatwaves to manifest, also can manipulate flames that possess heat that go beyond Planct Level and defy the very laws of Hyper-Thermodynamics. It allows **S'Gah-Zab** to burn or alter anything, even non-flammable, incorporeal, or conceptual things like time and nonexistence. He also had the ability to manipulate the underlying foundation of the concept of fire and concepts associated with it . Fire Immunity and/or Heat Immunity provides no protection from these flames as they will be completely bypassed due to its sheer potency and primeval nature.
		- **Primordial Fire Generation**: **S'Gah-Zab** could create primordial fire, fire/flame so ancient that it was from the beginning of the universe. Being more powerful than ordinary fire generation, he could use this power for a variety of powerful effects.
	+ **Pyrokinetic Combat**: **S'Gah-Zab** was able to infuse fire into combat, whether it be unleashing waves of fire, a close-ranged burst of flames, or other fire-based attacks through supernatural abilities (i.e. Fire Manipulation, Fire Magic).
