Organization: Pyromancers usually affiliate to temples of fire deities or wizard academies focused on elementalism.
Adventuring: As others, pyromancers adventure for fame, fortune, knowledge and to get a following.
Alignment: any, although most are chaotic
Starting Age: moderate
Starting Gold: as sorcerer

Weapon and Armor Proficiencies: A pyromancer is proficient with simple weapons, light armor, and no shield. He still incurs arcane spell failure when casting spells with a somatic component normally.
Spellcasting: A Pyromancer casts arcane spells from his own* class list.

A Pyromancer knows all the spells on his spell list up to the level of his highest spell slot. To prepare or cast a spell he must have an intelligence of at least 10+spell level. His spell DCs are charisma-based. Also, he receives bonus spells from having a high charisma score.

Evocation [Fire]
Level: Pyr 0
Components: S
Casting Time: 1 standard action

Level: Pyr 2
Components: V
Casting Time: 1 full round action
Range: Personal
Area: All 5 foot squares adjacent to you
Duration: 1 minute/CL
Saving Throw: no
Spell Resistance: Yes
A snake made of flames starts levitating around your body, providing both defense and assistance. While this spell is in effect, you may ignore the somatic component of your spells, and all creatures that are adjacent to you receive 1d6 damage per 2 CL (max 6d6) per round, and the same damage when they enter the zone of effect. If an opponent deals more than 10 damage to you or you use a spell that involves teleporting, Snakesign Ward ends.

Components: S, V
Casting Time: 1 swift action
Range: Personal
Area: You
Duration: 1 round/CL
Saving Throw: none

Flaming Teleport
Conjuration [Teleportation, Fire]
Level: Pyr 5
Components: S, V
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Personal and Touch
Area: You and touched objects
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Ref
Spell Resistance: Yes
Like Teleport, except you can't teleport living beings other than yourself. Also, when you leave your current position, you cause an explosion that deals 6d6 fire damage in a 15 feet spread and knocks everyone prone - passing a ref save against a DC of 10+spell level+cha mod prevents falling in prone, but does not prevent damage.
Flaming Teleport, Greater
Conjuration [Teleportation, Fire]
Level: Pyr 6
Components: S, V
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Personal and Touch
Area: You and touched objects
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Ref
Spell Resistance: Yes
Like Greater Teleport, except you can't teleport living beings other than yourself. Also, when you leave your current position, you cause an explosion that deals 6d6 fire damage in a 30 feet spread that deals maximized (36) damage within the first 5 feet and knocks everyone prone - passing a ref save against a DC of 10+spell level+cha mod prevents falling in prone, or, if you would be dealt maximized damage, the damage is rolled normally.
Blackfire
Evocation [Fire]

Components: S, V
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Medium
Area: vertical cylinder, 50 feet in diameter and CL/2 feet in height

You create a great natural fire and enhance it with the property to negate magic. Every round that creatures stay inside the cylinder, they receive 3d6+2/CL fire damage, or half if they pass a reflex save against a DC of 10+spell level+cha mod. Passing through the cylinder deals that damage per square passed, or again half if saved. Additionally, the entire volume of the cylinder and everything 5 feet around it is treated as an anti-magic field until either of these 3 happen:
1. 1 hour passes
2. the natural fire is put out
3. Disjunction is used
Unmake By Fire

Fiery Rebirth
Conjuration [Creation, Fire]
Level: Pyr 9
Components: S, V
Casting Time: 1 hour
Range: Personal or Touch
Area: single target
Duration: 24 hours
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No
The target of this spell will enjoy a fiery rebirth if he dies within 24 hours. Since the target can simply refuse to be reborn, this spell does not have a save. If the target would die in these 24 hours, he will instantly spring back from his own ashes, dealing 2d4*his character level fire damage to his armor and anyone touching him at that particular time. He will regain full health, will be immune to fire damage for 1 minute and will not receive any negative levels or penalty to XP.
Anyone under the effect of Fiery Rebirth may dismiss it as a free action.
Elemental Communion I/II/III/IV(Su): A pyromancer doesn't like getting burnt when he plays with fire. At level 1, he gains fire resistance 10, which doesn't stack with other fire resistances.
At level 5, this changes to fire resistance 15 and cold resistance 10, and he is immune to the damage of his own spells.
At level 10, he becomes immune to all fire damage, gains cold resistance 15, and resistance 5 to all other energy types.
At level 15, every time he would receive fire damage he heals 1d6 instead, gains immunity to cold, resistance 10 to all energy types, and DR 5/-.
Magic Specialization/Magic Generalization: At level 2, a pyromancer may choose one (and only one) of those paths.
If specialization: your CL for the purpose of casting spells with the Fire descriptor is increased by your class level/3 rounded up.
If generalization: at levels 2, 6, and every 4 levels thereafter, you may learn an additional spell that you can cast from the sor/wiz spell list. Depending on school, you will cast these spells at a different CL than usual.
Evocation, Illusion: CL
Transmutation, Conjuration, Necromancy: CL-2
Abjuration, Enchantment: Cl-4
Divination, spells without a school: CL-6
Fiery Blood (Su): The body of a level 3 pyromancer is imbued with magical fire. Treat his fort as good for the purpose of saving against spells only. Also, he will permanently ignore the disadvantages of extreme temperature.
Exchange (Su): A level 6 pyromancer may, as a swift action once per encounter, destroy one of the fire elementals summoned by him within 100 feet. If he does so, he gains an additional spell slot for the day for any spell level up to the level of the spell that summoned the fire elemental -1. This bonus spell slot may be used to spontaneously cast any level-appropriate non-conjuration spell.
Energy Conversion (Su): Before casting a spell that deals fire damage, a pyromancer may choose to have it deal untyped damage. In this case, the damage is halved.
Create Dustwraith (Sp): Whenever a level 8 pyromancer kills an opponent, he may choose to raise him as a Dustwraith. This process takes 3 full rounds, but the pyromancer need not pay attention. Dustwraith works for all intents and purposes as a template applied to the dead creature.
Size and Type: The creature's Type changes to Elemental, and its Size remains the same. Unlike a normal template, a Dustwraith doesn't gain the augmented subtype.
Hit Dice and Hit Points: Change all existing Hit Points of the creature to Elemental Hit Points. The number of Hit Dice remains unchanged.
Speed: Increase the creature's speed by 10 feet. If the creature had a swim, fly, burrow, or climb speed, it is now lost.
Armor Class: Reduce the target's Armor Class to 0.
Base Attack/Grapple: Remain unchanged.
Attack and Full Attack: Remain unchanged.
Space/Reach: Remain unchanged.
Special Attacks: None, and it loses the special attacks of the base creature.
Special Qualities: Loses the special qualities of the base creature, gains elemental traits, gains 1 way telepathy (can't answer back) with the pyromancer, gains immunity to fire.
Base Saves: Remain unchanged.
Abilities: Str -2, Dex +2, Con -2, Int -, Wis+0, Cha+0
Dustwraiths are unintelligent and only do what the pyromancer commands them to do.
Skills: All ranks in skills with a mental modifier become 0, rest remain the same.
Feats: All are lost.
Environment: N/A
Organization: N/A
Challenge Rating: varies, usually the original creature's -4 or even less
Dustwraiths are under the complete control of the pyromancer that created them. A pyromancer may not have more than one dustwraith under his control at one time, nor may he raise a dustwraith as a dustwraith.
A dustwraith lives for a number of rounds equal to either the HD of the slain creature or the CL of the pyromancer, whichever is lower.
Empowered Minions: All creatures summoned by a pyromancer are treated as having all ability scores higher by 2.
Pyre Channeling (Su): A level 13 pyromancer may declare any 100 square feet area as his pyre. The location of a pyre may be changed once per week. While within his pyre, a pyromancer meditates instead of sleeping as elves do, and is invulnerable to sleep effects. Also, he doesn't need the additional hour of channeling to prepare his spells.
Pyrelord (Su): A level 20 pyromancer is a master of fire. He can make anyone within 100 feet of him immune to fire damage, the maximum range of all his non-personal non-touch spells extends to 20 feet and he can control an unlimited number of Dustwraiths.
