Fire Elementalists are mages who have specialized in Fire Magic. This sets them up for greater destructive power than most spellcasters, particularly in the realm of Conjurations, but leaves them without any sort of support or defensive magic in the early game.
Preferred Races
Hill Orc, Gargoyle, Tengu, Deep Elf, Demigod, and Naga are the recommended races if you pick a Fire Elementalist Background.
Starting Equipment
- +0 robe
Available Spells:
Fire elementalists start with the Foxfire spell already memorised.
Starting Skills and Stats
These are adjusted by your species' aptitudes.
- Dodging: 2
- Stealth: 2
- Spellcasting: 2
- Conjurations: 1
- Fire Magic: 3
Choosing Fire Elementalist adds 7 to your starting Intelligence and 5 to your starting Dexterity.
Strategy
This start struggles slightly before XL 4, due to the finicky nature of Foxfire. The aformentioned spell is important to use correctly early game; it requires open space to be used properly. The strong spells Sticky Flame and Fireball then carry this start for a long time - FE starts with the offensive spells to pretty much get 2 runes on its own.
