Firestarters are magical creatures with the power of pyrokinesis. When their emotions are heightened, they can concentrate and create fire or cause things to burst into flames. The power usually manifests in adolescence, in the form of headaches when they become particularly emotional, that result in things bursting into flames.[2]
Not particularly common, they can be good or evil. Because of their advanced power, they are tracked by Demonic Bounty Hunters, to be given to and trained by a demon called Ludlow, who would train them to become bodyguards to the Source of All Evil.
Archai are often mistaken for Firestarters.[3]
