Blazing Dawn Player's Companion

Ember Knight
An ember knight employs martial techniques

combined with potent fire magic. While ember
knights are often mistaken for the more common
eldritch knights at first glance, the source of an
ember knight’s magic comes from within, rather than
from the study of magic. In this way they are comparable
to sorcerers. While the potential to become an ember knight might
be within someone from birth, this potential typically doesn’t
manifest until that person has a few battles under
their belt. This event is generally referred to as an ember
knight’s “kindling,” where they first begin to wield their
fiery powers.
Once an ember knight “kindles,” their skills become a
desired commodity. Their presence can inspire fear in their
opponents, and awe in their onlookers, as their fiery weapons and
arrays of burning embers sow death and destruction. Many
become mercenaries, or even leaders of mercenary groups, and
their services are often highly sought after. Anyone that employs
an ember knight finds them to be worth their price.

Starting at 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to imbue fire
magic into a weapon you wield. Until the weapon leaves your
possession or you end this feature using another bonus action, the
weapon’s damage type becomes fire damage and it sheds bright
light in a 10-foot radius and dim light 10 feet beyond that.
Also, you gain darkvision out to a range of 60 feet. If you
already have darkvision, its range instead increases by 60 feet.
Your darkvision is unusual: everything you see in darkness is in a
shade of red.
