Dying Will Flame

Reborn Wikia

The Dying Will Flame (Viz: Deathperation Flame) is the basis for Tsunayoshi Sawada "resurrected" strength in the beginning of the series but over time, becomes a more crucial part to the story. In the Future, all combatants use their own Flame to fight one another. It is highly suggested that different Flames are within one's bloodline; so, a type of Flame could be shared and/or inherited within one's Family.

There are seven different Flames that match the title of Guardians of the Vongola Famiglia: Sky, Storm, Rain, Sun, Cloud, Lightning, and Mist. Each Flame is identified by one of the colors of the rainbow and possesses a unique characteristic. Dying Will Flames are the source of power used to activate the Box Weapons in the Future, and can cover Weapons, like Swords, to strengthen and reinforce them. Reborn explain it's a overly dense version of aura. However, unlike aura, the Dying Will Flame is a real Flame that can melt, burn, and even burn up the oxygen in the air. A Dying Will Flame is super condensed energy, unlike any aura. Each element of flame can have different types of personality in the people using it, even though it does not always correspond with the flame itself. For example, the Arcobaleno Skull uses the Cloud flame, the purpose of which is "The floating Cloud; one that cannot be caught and goes its own way;" however, Skull's personality and actions completely differ from the purpose of his flame. The stronger a person's resolve is, the purer the Flame is, and the more powerful it is, and the greater it demonstrates its characteristic.

Flame Types

Sky (Cielo)
Color: Orange
Characteristic: Harmony (Armonia)
Purpose: "Understands and accepts all the Guardians. The Sun, Thunder, Storm, Rain, Mist, Cloud, he influences them all."

Description: Those who possess Sky Flames are exceedingly rare, and possibly the most powerful people in the world. The characteristic of harmony is said to maintain the balance between the other Flames, and contains neither contradiction nor conflict.
Appearance: The Sky Flame seems to have an Orange center for the Flame, then a pale Orange for the outer spiking, that of which is similar in appearance to Rain Flames, with largish oscillating spikes.

Storm (Tempesta)
Color: Red
Characteristic: Degeneration (Distruzione)
Purpose: "Continuously at the heart of the attack, the storm of raging waves that never rests."

Description: Anything that touches Storm Flames begins to break down and corrode, even other Flames. These Flames are highly offensive.
Appearance: The Storm Flame appears to be almost opaque in appearance. With a Red Color at the center, then an inner area of a very pale red-white, and an outer spiking of deep red coloring resembling a real fire. In the manga, the ends of the Flames are distinctively dark.

Rain (Pioggia)
Color: Blue
Characteristic: Tranquility (Calma)
Purpose: "Squaring the accounts of Battle; washing away the Blood spilled that is the requiem of Rain."

Description: These Flames weaken other Flames and Attacks such as Illusions, rendering them almost completely ineffective. The stronger the Flames, the weaker the enemy's Attacks become.
Appearance: The Rain Flame appears to have sparkles of some type running through it, giving it a similar appearance to Water ripples. It is more or less opaque, and has a Dark Blue at the center while the outer part of the Flame is a pale Light Blue with large, oscillating spikes.

Sun (Sereno)
Color: Yellow
Characteristic: Activation (Attivazione)
Purpose: "Destroying the misfortune that attacks the family with their own body. They become the sun that brightly shines upon an area."

Description: Sun Flames initiate processes and speed them up at an incredible rate. Difficult to use offensively, the activation is usually used effectively for healing rather than power up purposes, with the exception of Ryohei's Three Minute Power-Up.
Appearance: Sun Flames have a constant Yellow coloring throughout the whole Flame, and circular "shines" of light emanating from it as well.

Lightning (Fulmine)
Color: Green
Characteristic: Solidification (Indurimento)
Purpose: "The Lightning; one that harshly strike everything and which serves as a Lightning Rod for the Family, enduring the damage."

Description: These Flames are the most solid flames and have the ability to harden anything infused with the Flames, increasing their offensive and defensive properties. This Flame is very unique as it has more of an electrical quality than actual Flame, as it is used to electrocute opponents rather than burn them.
Appearance: Lightning Flames have the appearance of Lightning. The center is an off-white Green, and the extremely sharp "spikes" of Flame are a Dark Neon Green in color. They have a tendency to form round shapes with the sharper part flailing around, like how electricity is often times shown.

Cloud (Nuvola)
Color: Purple
Characteristic: Propagation (Propagazione)
Purpose: "To be the aloof drifting cloud that protects the family from an independent standpoint, and whom nothing can ever bind."

Description: Cloud Flames and Cloud Flame-based Weapons absorb other Flames to grow in size or multiply, and can even cause phenomenal growth in human beings if their bodies are altered. Hibari can use the Flames like a shield, as been seen on Episode 130, when he defends Genkishi's attack with his Flames.
Appearance: These have a dark Purple at the center, and a Pale Light Purple for the rest of the Flame. And unlike Rain Flames, which have sharp oscillating spikes, Cloud Flames have small rounds of flame instead of points.

Mist (Nebbia)
Color: Indigo
Characteristic: Construction (Costruzione)
Purpose: "Creating something from nothing and nothing from something; thus bewildering the enemy rendering the family’s true form intangible with visions of deceit."

Description: Mist Flames are capable of generating Illusions and constructing them into real, solid objects.
Appearance: Mist Flames have an off-white indigo for the majority of the Flame, and a gradually darkening Indigo for the rest of the Flame deepening outward.

Snow (Neve)
Color: White
Purpose: The freezing Snow, one that freezes everything.

Description: Snow Flames seem to operate similar to Giotto's Zero Point Breakthrough in that they are capable of freezing the Flames of adversaries.
Appearance: Snow Flames seem to vaguely resemble Mist Flames, though are much lighter in appearance. The margins of the flame are gradually turning into a light blue color, also there are some "sparkling" elements inside the flame.
