A subtrope of Playing with Fire. A character has the ability to set their whole body ablaze with flames. Different from Man On Fire, as the latter trope involves that person being harmed by said fire. Because fire is awesome, this makes the character automatically awesome. If they can turn it on or off, expect them to enjoy showing off via Finger-Snap Lighter. May be a form of Battle Aura. Flaming Hair is a subtrope of this, where a person can only ignite their hair. By their nature, the character is not harmed by setting themselves on fire -- they have the Required Secondary Powers .
