It looks like fire, it crackles like fire, and it even burns like fire. However, it isn't really fire. It looks like fire because that's what the Master of Illusion wants you to see. Despite crackling, it consumes no air, burns no fuel and creates no smoke. If it generates heat or burns victims, it's because it's magical or because Your Mind Makes It Real. Even if it can incinerate a chair, it rarely spreads to the rest of the room. It probably deals less damage than straight-up pyrokinesis, too, though it can likely bypass resistances to fire. And a quick Tap on the Head to the creator likely puts them all out. Faux Flame can also be produced by holograms or other sufficiently advanced technology: it will look like fire, and sometimes will even produce heat, but in reality it's just an image. Someone who specializes in Playing with Fire will not be impressed. In combat, the caster can make the Faux Flames Friendly Fireproof and not worry about harming allies. This property has the added bonus of letting casters wreath themselves in flame to look cool. Can be related to Cold Flames, although it is equally likely to be hot. Compare and/or contrast Hellfire. Unrelated to Fake Relationship. |

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): A few instances with the Titans. In Chapter 16, Mothra's red-colored bioluminescence creates the illusion of flames when she's furious, and Vivienne's fury apparently makes her body's red-themed bioluminescence burn bright enough to create the same effect based on the author's artwork. | |

Certain species of Digimon utilize this for different reasons. Some, like Gabumon and his evolutions, use it as a theme for their attacks. Others, like Kyuubimon and her counterpart Youkomon have it covering their bodies, be it as part of their attacks or simply as part of their design. Interestingly, Gabumon's seem to change based on the form. As Gabumon, he once started a normal fire with his blue flame attack (remember, in real life, blue means the fire is hotter than when it's yellow.) As Garurumon, it just seems to blast stuff. Metal Garurumon, on the other hand, has ice blasts (and regular blasts.) And ice missiles (and regular missiles). Some Flavor Text from his Japanese trading card says that "an attack at full strength turns the surrounding area into a world of fire and ice!" | |

In the Coldfire Trilogy, the Hunter is skilled in the creation and usage of "coldfire" which is as cold as real fire is hot. He warns Damian that it is just as volatile and dangerous as true fire. The Hunter wields coldfire because part of the price he paid for his form of immortality is that he can no longer manipulate normal flames. | |

Early in The Malloreon, Garion, Polgara, Beldin, and Durnik need a way to block an attacking army without harming them, because the army is actually their own soldiers, turned against them by a traitorous general. They try to pen in the 'enemy' with fake flames. It works ... until one of the enemy gets the idea of trying to extinguish the fire by throwing dirt on it. | |

In D.Gray-Man one akuma had the ability to shoot ice fire, which it used to trap Allen when he and Lenalee were fighting against him and 2 other akuma in an alleyway. Oddly, he said it burned hotter than normal fire despite the fact that it could clearly be seen freezing around Allen's leg like ice. | |

Dragon Age: Inquisition introduces "veilfire," a Living Memory (so to speak) of flames that once burned the torch/firepit/brazier/etc. where the veilfire now burns (how this works is tied to how the Fade treats the memories associated with places). It only produces light and does not consume fuel. Its main use is to find hidden codex entries, although it also plays a part in a few puzzles. Any mage (including the Inquisitor) in your party can summon it from a stationary fire source if necessary. | |

The saints in Dante's Paradiso are so intensely happy and full of light that they look like they are on fire. They aren't really aflame, and from Dante's reactions they aren't giving off heat, but rather they project pure joy which only gets more focused the closer they ascend to God. | |

In The Dresden Files, Harry Dresden, reduced to ghost at the time, watches his apprentice Molly conjure up several high-quality illusions in attempt to fool some Elite Mooks, including walls of blue fire. The mooks eventually see through it. Subverted when Harry, who is, to quote, "reasonably good with fire", possesses Molly and creates an identical wall of real blue fire. One mook sneers, fearlessly steps through it, and is reduced to ashes before he can feel pain. | |

Discworld: In Thief of Time, Kaos has a sword which generates Faux flames. Literally. The flames in question freeze the air. When he's not wielding said sword for its intended purpose, he uses it to chill dairy products. During the climactic battle in Moving Pictures, the Unseen University faculty set themselves on "fire" to ward off an Eldritch Abomination that they can't attack directly with magic. Even though the illusion produces no heat, the monster is bound by the rules of cinema and reacts as though the threat were real. |

Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas: Ignis Fatuus is an attack used by the Cancer Saint, who, appropriately enough, uses Soul Power to create "soul flames" (or something). The flames around in Yomotsu Hirasaka are basically will o' wisps which use souls as fuel to sustain themselves. This attack is just the weaponized form of this. |

Cradle Series: The Path of the White Fox, a Path focused on illusions, is known for "fox fire," purple flames that cause pain but no real damage. When Lindon masters the Path, he teaches his sister about how the flames can actually cause spiritual damage directly to an enemy's soul; an uncommon and useful ability. The fact that the supposed masters of the Path were completely unaware of this serves as more proof that they had no idea what they were doing. | |

In New Vindicators, Seraphim, those who have Fallen, and their half human children use a power often called Hellfire (presumably the angels call it something else), which manifests as a different color of flames (angels have white, and the fallen have a specific color :Lucifer, purple; Leviathan, blue; Astaroth, red; Asmodeus, yellow; Abaddon, black; Semyazza, green). This hellfire produces no light and is psionic in nature, it does not burn. However, it can be used for a variety of effects-being able to solidify and cut, to create solid shapes, and many, many more effects. | |

Tomoe from Kamisama Kiss uses these, not surprisingly given that he's a kitsune. In fact, he has developed a rather interesting, and rather sadistic, use for them by combining them with Forced Transformations. First, he transforms his opponent into a game animal of some kind (a trout, an ostrich, etc...) and then uses his fox-fire to cook them alive. | |

3×3 Eyes: During the Amara arc, the hard-to-reach domain of Andhaka (hindi for Darkness) in the depths of the planet hosts one hundred and eight spires containing the "Flames of Reason", which is actually Amara's own intellect and reason. There's one more tower with a different flame, colored blue, which is the "Binding Flame" that keeps all others together. Neither type of flames burns, but the former are used to keep the mindless Amara clone at bay, while the latter can open a single eye to put Juuma used against Amara under his control. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time features magical blue flames which can be stored in a bottle. The potion shop clerk says you can use them "to feel refreshing coolness", but their only real in-game purpose is to melt the red ice you find in some areas. The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks brings the blue flames back, and they freeze stuff - their first uses are to make the boomerang burn with them to freeze paths on water. |

A creature made of this shows up in a late 2010 story arc in El Goonish Shive. Justin and Elliot note his lack of actual heat. It's also given a huge Lampshade Hanging in the form of an actual weeping scientist. |

In Chrono Trigger you have the Triple Tech Frost Arc/Arc Impulse, with Crono Frog and Marle, it involves Marle the ice mage causing Crono's sword to burn with a weird coloured flame. Said flame is from the Ice2 spell. The sequel, Chrono Cross, takes this trope to literal proportions with the Frozen Flame. |

During the climactic battle in Moving Pictures, the Unseen University faculty set themselves on "fire" to ward off an Eldritch Abomination that they can't attack directly with magic. Even though the illusion produces no heat, the monster is bound by the rules of cinema and reacts as though the threat were real. | |

In the Empath: The Luckiest Smurf story "Smurfed Behind: Smurfing In Heaven", Empath is sent to Tartarus after originally being in Elysium with what he thought were his fellow Smurfs, only to find out that the flames of Tartarus can't actually hurt him, which clues him in to the fact that these afterlife destinations are actually illusions. | |

Most versions of Tam Lin require the heroine to hold onto her lover in some form that's burning, trusting that he will not hurt her. In the related story "The Faerie Oak of Corriewater", when the rescuer takes fright and lets go, she does burn to death, implying Your Mind Makes It Real. | |

Mage: The Awakening: The primary attack spell of the Prime arcanum, which deals in pure magic, produces a "celestial flame" that doesn't burn like real fire and deals the less-lethal "bashing damage" at its lowest Spell Level. Crucially, it also doesn't count as real flame for creatures who have a special vulnerability to fire. | |

In Artemis Fowl: The Time Paradox, Damon Kronski, leader of the Extinctionists, has a pit lined with flamethrowers which he uses to stage the execution of endangered species for the amusement of his supporters. Unbeknownst to him, another character (who wants the endangered animals saved for selfish reasons) fitted a trapdoor in the base of the pit and replaced the flamethrowers with hologram generators. | |
