History

Abilities

Fireblade is a very skilled martial artist, knowing fighting styles of the ninja and being incredibly acrobatic. In addition to that he also wields two very sharp blades. His body is comprised of flames so he can eject flames at will.

Design History

Rough Sketch

The original idea for this Titan was a smoke-themed ninja. When we got this sketch from the artist, we realized that the Titan Shinobi is a shadow-ninja and that the two Titans looked a lot alike! Of course, we wanted this Titan to look different from Shinobi, so we made him a fire-ninja! We thought red clothes, glowing eyes, and fire on his weapons would make him look cool, so we changed him to match his new fire theme. We also wanted him to be more acrobatic, so we asked the artists to put him in a jumping pose high above his opponent’s head.

Pencil Sketch

Here’s the new and improved Fireblade in an acrobatic jump. His two swords are in full view, and he looks ninja-riffic! You might have noticed that the generic “big armored guy” from the rough sketch now looks like Freelancer. We really wanted Fireblade’s quickness and agility to come through in the picture, so we chose to pair him up with a big, slow Titan. In the final art, we had the artist replace Freelancer with Brahe, who is big and slow.

Final Art

Imagine a skilled martial artist. Now imagine he’s made out of living fire. That’s Fireblade! Fast, not too strong and not too tough, but whatever he does looks awesome. We like having Brahe in the picture with Fireblade because it shows how athletic Fireblade is—Brahe’s pretty tall, so Fireblade has to be pretty acrobatic to jump that high and flip in midair! The final touches are the night sky and buildings in the background.

Trivia

  • Fireblade and Brahe are both Evil Titans, so why are they fighting each other in this picture? Actually, they’re not fighting—Fireblade is jumping over Brahe. Is Fireblade aiming for an enemy that’s about to hit Brahe in the back? Or is Fireblade getting out of the way so Brahe can deal with a heavy-hitter like Caliban?
