You enjoy watching the destruction of objects due to fire. To avoid watching a fire you must make a will roll. the number of successes needed is the level of this skill. Also, once a month the GM will roll a will roll to see if you start a fire. Here the number of successes is your level – the number of fires you have watched. For example, Reggie the mage has Pyromania -5, So far this month he has not watched any fires so he will need 5 successes to not start one this month. the fires that you start must be large and destroy something large.
