Pyronite

Pyronites are humanoid magma-based aliens from the planet-like star Pyros.

Appearance
Pyronites are a humanoid species who are composed of flames and rock that flare up on their head like hair and they have redish rocks covering their bodies.

Female Pyronites are basically the same as male Pyronites, except they have more curved figures and their chests slightly jut outward.

Powers and Abilities
Pyronites are masters of fire, capable of generating flames from their bodies in many forms. The flames can be projected as weapons or used to provide flight.

Pyronites can channel flames through other surfaces to generate jet propulsion, allowing them to 'surf' through the air.

Pyronites are not limited to simply creating fire; because their bodies are naturally heat convective, they are able to absorb heat, effectively allowing them to put out fires.

Weaknesses
Because of their heat and fire based nature, Pyronites do not react well to water or fire retardants. Exposure to these substances can caused mixed results; they might cause temporary extinguishing of flames or prevent a Pyronite from using the full extent of their abilities.

When Pyronites have a cold, they gain cryokinetic abilities while losing their pyrokinesis.

In addition, Pyronites are weak to their natural predator, the Crabdozer.

History
Due to their homeworld being a planet-like star, Pyronites have had limited contact with other alien species.

With little outside contact, Pyronites have been able to spend their whole lives perfecting their pyrokinetic abilities.
