Species: Geist.

Type of variant: Gigas form - Ignis Gigas.

Appearance: Similar in appearance to both the Petra and Glacies Gigas (my nickname for the icy Gigas we saw in Ace Operatives), the Ignis Gigas, formed when a Geist possesses volcanic material, is more streamlined and quick on its feet than its cohorts. It is mainly dark brown, black and grey in colour, with veins of red magma running through its component parts. Their Grimm mask is in the centre of their mass, and lava can be seen dribbling from small cracks in its body.

New abilities: The Ignis Gigas carries lava within itself at all times, and it can project this lava from its extremities in highly-pressurised jets. This can result in deadly bursts of speed or surprise attacks from afar. It can also alter its own temperature to keep foes from getting too close - however using this ability presents the risk of melting its own component rocks, so Ignis Gigas do not use it often.

Strengthened old abilities: Thanks in part to the lava within itself, the Ignis Gigas is faster and stronger than the Petra Gigas, fuelled by the lava's energy. It also has increased immunity to Dust, particularly of the Fire variety.

Fun fact: Ignis Gigas translates to Fire Giant from Latin.
