-====== Pyromancy ======
-Pyromancy is one of the wizardry disciplines of spellcasting.  Most
-pyromancy spells belong to the paths of fire or creation, but a few
-belong to other paths.  Most pyromancy spells involve fire or
-lightning in some way, and offensive spells outnumber defensive ones.
-[[races:dragons|Dragon]] and [[races:fireborns|fireborn]] characters seem like naturals for this skill,
-while [[races:trolls]] and [[races:wraiths]] may wish to avoid it, since their natural
-vulnerability to fire could make it dangerous for them to use.
-Devourers are repelled by Fire, so they will be unable to cast many
-pyromancy spells until achieving a few levels in the skill or forming
-a party with a pyromancer and sharing experience points (XP).
-The pyromancy skill is acquired by learning the skill from a scroll or
-by having a talisman of pyromancy.
