The Fire Magic school determines how easily you can manipulate fire.
Fire magic focuses almost single-mindedly on dealing direct damage to enemies; most fire spells are also Conjurations, though a few spells offer slightly more subtlety. Practitioners should have no difficulty due to a lack of firepower, whether they be single targets or large groups. Damage from Fire Magic is generally reduced by fire resistance.
