Common foe

Cinder Wisp

Cinder Wisp portrait

A loose scrap of furnace-light that never quite goes out. It drinks the ember right out of the coals you're banking, four points down before you can spend it, and the heat it sheds off keeps climbing on its own, hotter every turn you carry it, until something colder puts it out.

🔥 Kilnbrand
At the end of your turn you take that much, straight through Guard, and the brand climbs by 1. Burns out after 3 turns. The kiln's heat doesn't visit once and leave. What you carry out keeps climbing on its own, a little hotter every turn, until something colder than the fight puts it out..
