Fire in some works has the ability to burn away imperfections and evil. It burns up evil or evil-associated creatures, such as demons and the undead, entirely, and it works more effectively against those beings than most weapons or attacks would. It can also sometimes burn away only the evil parts, leaving any pure or good parts unharmed. In such cases, it is useful for de-possessing hapless creatures who have been possessed by evil beings. This ability draws on fire's association with life and its ability to burn impurities out of metal as well as the ability of hot objects to kill bacteria and decompose poisons; combining these ideas to create a force against evil. This will often be a form of magic fire, but sometimes all fire will have this property. In some settings, the characters will believe that fire has this property, and act accordingly, even though fire does not actually have any extra powers against evil. This may be a reason why Fire Keeps It Dead, the trope for where burning a body prevents it from coming back to life. Supertrope to Burn the Undead, which is where the purifying powers of fire cause the undead to be vulnerable to destruction by fire. Compare Heal It With Fire. Often associated with Sacred Flames. If the purification has to do with the magical properties of the fire, then it's an example of Magic Fire. |

The people of Yharnam in Bloodborne believe that fire 'purifies' Beasts - this is not actually true; while some Beasts do fear fire, fire doesn't prevent the spread of the Beast Scourge at all, because the actual catalyst for transformation is the Old Blood that every single citizen of Yharnam has taken courtesy of the Healing Church. | |

In the good ending of Cuphead, after defeating the Devil, Cuphead and Mugman toss the Soul Contracts into the fiery furnace to incinerate them (since the Soul Contracts indicate that the inhabitants of the Inkwell Isles lost their casino games against the Devil who until now owned their souls, though they skipped out on paying their deals to him and were deep in debt). In destroying the contracts in this way, the boys deliver the grateful inhabitants from eternal servitude to the Devil. | |

Blue Exorcist shows this with Rin and his flames. It's particularly noticeable in the Kyoto Saga, when his flames engulf the entire mountain and everyone on it. Many of his fellow students flinch away, expecting to be hurt by them as they have in the past, as Satan's flames are deadly, but no one is harmed and all the demonic rot is cleared away. | |

Just before the summit of Mount Purgatory in The Divine Comedy, there is a massive wall of fire all humanity must pass through to purify their lust. Unlike every other penance of Purgatory, Dante actually must go through the wall of fire in order to enter Heaven. Not eager to burn away parts of his soul, Dante hesitates until Virgil reminds him Beatrice is on the other side of the fire. Dante jumps in. | |

Loki from The Order of the Stick is the god of Flames and Chaos. Although Evil, considering his opposition to undead, this portfolio leans closer to the cleansing/purifying aspect of the element, and that's the way his clerics make use of it. Even their Turn Undead power is described by vampires as burning them. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Used classically straight when dealing with green slime. Fire is one of the few things that will kill it, and burning it off while it's still busily trying to turn your comrade's flesh into more green slime is about the only way to save them if you don't have just the right healing spell handy at the moment. This is the flavor behind various fire-dealing Divine spells in Fourth Edition, which in turn grew out of the Cleric's unique offensive spell flame strike, which has been around since the beginning of D&D. This, in a nutshell, is the Circle of Wildfire Druid's shtick in 5th edition. Along with a suite of fire spells like burning hands, scorching ray, and flame strike, the subclass gets bonus spells that are themed around healing and growth (cure wounds, revivify, plant growth) and the ability to conjure a Wildfire Spirit that can either heal allies or harm foes. The flavor text emphasizes that wildfires are a healthy part of the natural order, scouring the land clean to make way for new growth. In the Nentir Vale setting, this is the philosophy of the more benign Wildfire Dragons, which are dragons that have been warped by powerful magic until they are literally just living masses of flame in the vague shape of dragons. |

In the Young Wizards series, the spiritual entity which empowers the Spear of Light, the Virtue of Purification, is associated with the element of fire. It can burn away the impurities and imperfections of any living being, but the process of doing so is lethal. The Spear does not care that purifying things destroys them (as one character says, patience is not one of its virtues), so it's a good thing that the Spear can't throw itself. | |

Magic: The Gathering: White is usually the color of purity, but Red occasionally gets a cleansing motif, such as Cleansing Beam or Burn the Impure. Maniacal angels can be associated with either White or Red mana, culminating in Avacyn, the Purifier.

Being essentially an archangel in the form of a dragon, the Silver Dragon Saeyos in The Chronicles of Aeres possesses a Breath Weapon whose flames literally burn the evil out of one's very soul, which Saeyos used to devastating effect to battle the minions of its Evil Counterpart. The Argent Draconvir are an entire race who sprang out of a holy order that worshipped Saeyos to the point they voluntarily transformed themselves from humans into lesser imitations of Saeyos, arming them with similar soul-cleansing Breath Weapon (handled mechanically as doing a mixture of Fire and Radiant damage, in comparison to the hellfire of their dark counterparts). | |

Warhammer 40,000: Among the Imperial forces, flamers are usually seen as a good metaphor for purifying the God-Emperor's enemies. Sisters of Battle take it even further, with most squads wielding flamers or wearing hats that are on fire. Not to mention virus bombing (which basically converts a large proportion of the planet's surface into fuel and strikes a match). The incinerators flamers used by the daemon hunting Grey Knights enhance the widely held belief in the purifying effects of fire with the addition of sacred oils to its already highly blessed fuel to make them especially dangerous to the Chapter's daemonic enemies. Some editions of the rules represented this by giving incinerators bonuses such as the ability to ignore the invulnerable saves of daemonic creatures. It's also effective when dealing with Orks for more practical reasons; they're fungus-based lifeforms which release spores (which eventually grow into new orks). Burning them helps prevent them reinfecting planets they've attacked. The Emperor's powers themselves typically manifested as ethereal fire, potent enough to permanently kill the otherwise-immortal Chaos daemons and Daemon Princes while also cleansing Chaos corruption, something almost no other psychic in the setting was or is able to do. |

Child of the Storm has this as a common technique for dealing with the undead, and with dark magic. Phoenix fire in particular is cited as being very good at purifying... though if you're not careful, it'll 'purify' everything it touches into oblivion, and it can be corrupted, resulting in the Dark Phoenix. | |

Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator serves as a Grand Finale of the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise. In its true ending, earned by salvaging all four of the scrapped animatronics, you listen to a message from the Cassette Guy who hired you directed to both yourself and the animatronics. As he speaks of finally ending the nightmare once and for all, images are shown of Scrap Baby, Molten Freddy, and Springtrap burning, with particular malice directed from the Cassette Guy to Springtrap. The obvious intent is to destroy everything beyond hope of recovery and finally put all the lost souls involved to rest. The Insanity Ending also provides an explanation as to why “Fire Purifies�: the souls are bound to the animatronics (or, in one case, an empty skinsuit) by a substance called “remnant�. This substance breaks down at high temperatures, meaning fire is truly the only way to “purify�. |

In Tales of Zestiria, Lailah is able to use the Flames of Purification to stop Hellions and purify Malevolence. Its later revealed this is because of a pact she made with Maotelus. Tales of Berseria later provides an origin to this ability: It was a special flame created by a Malak named Laphicet, who became Maotelus. | |

In Serena, the titular character burns down the cabin she murdered her husband in. This is a wise choice — the flames destroy not only evidence, but his ghost. | |

In the Nentir Vale setting, this is the philosophy of the more benign Wildfire Dragons, which are dragons that have been warped by powerful magic until they are literally just living masses of flame in the vague shape of dragons. | |

The supernatural elements of Shakugan no Shana are heavily fire-themed, which extends to its Hunters of Monsters being referred to as "Flame Hazes" and generally having at least some ability to manipulate fire as an attack. Back when she lived on the road Shana followed a more utilitarian version of this, using her flames to burn away dirt and disease as a substitute for bathing. | |

The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant: The Giants use a kind of ritual fire called the caamora to purify their mind and soul. Giants are immune to damage from fire, but still feel pain equivalent to burning when exposed; they use this pain to "burn" away guilt, anger, grief, and other extremes of harmful emotion. They've become psychologically dependent on the caamora, to the point where they will suffer mentally if they are unable to purge their pain in this fashion. Even the ghosts of the Giants of Seareach were unable to fully rest in peace for centuries until Covenant uses his ring to provide a caamora of mystic flame to ease the horror of their slaughter. | |

In Chronicles of the Kencyrath, fire is one of the few reliable ways to kill corrupted beings like Haunts and Changers, and usually the most practical. Also, until the body of a Kendar or Highborn is burned, their spirit is bound to the world. | |

Daughters of the Moon has a rare Pure Is Not Good version with the Cold Fire, a ritual by which high-ranking Followers burn away their mortality and bind themselves to the Atrox as its ageless servants. | |
