Burning Claws [Major] by NMI

Oooh! That has got to burn!

The character with this power is able to generate a set of claws either from his fingertips or the back of his knuckles. The unique thing about these claws is that all though there is solid material [bone, metal, etc...] they also happen to be surrounded by a nimbus of flame. Not only can the hero use this Burning Claws in melee combat, but with focus, the hero can launch these claws/shard at their target from a distance.

The amount of damage that is fire/heat is also the percentage chance to ignite combustibles. P.S. damage bonus may be added to melee strikes/.
