When turned and twisted the right way, this Aztec relic releases a swarm of flying, pyromaniac sparks, lighting a fire wherever they land.
If turned another way, the Firehive will turn nearby fires into the sparks, raising them up to burn something else within reach.
Spend an Action. Select a target within arm's reach which has both fuel and oxygen available (if you are starting a new fire).
You may start a new fire as large as a fire in a residential fireplace at your target. You may create fires the size of a lighter or candle flame without Exerting your Mind. Your fires require fuel and oxygen in order to continue burning.
Lighting a target on fire deals 3 Damage per Round, starting in the Round after the one in which they caught fire. This Damage is reduced by Armor, but the target’s Armor rating will be depleted by any Damage dealt, destroying the Armor once it reaches 0.
You may extinguish flames as a Reaction. This does not extend to explosives.
You may spend a Free Action on your initiative move a fire as large as a fire in a residential fireplace that is within arm's reach to another location within arm's reach. You may Exert your Mind to draw a line which a fire up to twice as large as a fire in a residential fireplace cannot cross.

Grimzip is a sentient, magical backpack with a stitched mouth for a zipper and eyes that blink when no one’s looking. Though compact in size, it holds an impossibly vast space within—able to store anything from books to boulders without ever growing heavier. Grimzip has a dry sense of humor, occasionally grumbling or chuckling softly when items are placed inside. It's fiercely loyal to its owner, and rumors say it can “swallow” thieves whole if they try to steal from it. Despite its slightly spooky vibe, Grimzip is a dependable (if moody) travel companion.
