Dying Will Flames are a fairly mysterious form of energy that are much like that of a living being's aura. The main difference being that, instead of being a natural field of life energy, Dying Will Flames are hyper-purified and incredibly condensed excess life force; this is why, while auras can normally only be seen when they're from an exceptionally powerful individual, all Dying Will Flames can be seen perfectly well by anyone.

As explained by Zev Raregroove, all living creatures are technically capable of producing Flames. However, the majority of organisms cannot simply tap into them anytime they like, unless they have either been trained by someone who's already awakened theirs or they are exposed to certain stimuli. These stimuli include coming within a hair's breadth of dying (or actually dying) while having an unusually strong desire to live and protect what's important to you at all cost (this is where the name "Dying Will Flame" comes from); if all of these requirements are met, it's virtually guaranteed that a Flame will awaken within the individual.

There are two main groups of Flames, each with seven types: The "Dying Will Flames of the Sky", which represent weather-related phenomenon and possessing a different color of the rainbow; and the "Dying Will Flames of the Earth", that represent different features of the land and which are apparently only possessed by the remnants of the Simon Famiglia (and perhaps some Shattered Mirror Universe inhabitants).

Dying Will Flames of the Sky[]

Sky Flame, Cielo[]

Color: Orange.

Awesome - Reborn! Sky Flame

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! is Property of Akira Amano.

Characteristic: Armonia (Italian for "Harmony").

Ability: The assimilation of the surroundings.

Description: The Sky Flame is the purest and rarest Dying Will Flame of the Sky as well as the most mysterious in terms of how it actually works. It is said to represent perfection, its characteristic of Harmony denoting a state without flaws or contradictions, which enable the user to "harmonize" with other Flames to strengthen them, absorb them into itself, combine their qualities and (most notably) petrify/freeze them.

Users of this Flame represent the sky, often it one of two conflicting ways: On the "good side", they represent its openness; accepting all others and wishing no evil, even on those who've done them and their friends great wrong. However, on the "dark side", Sky Flame users represent its overbearingness; seeking power and to rule over all others. However, what many don't realize about these particular individuals is that (in most cases) they believe that there must be those who have absolute power so as to protect and give order to the weak. One notable Sky Flame user is Xanxus.

Appearance: There are two varieties of Sky Flames; "Soft Flames" and "Hard Flames". Soft Flames have a pale orange core, fading to a slightly darker shade at the edges. Meanwhile, Hard Flames have a very dark orange core (almost red in coloration) with edges in varying tones of orange.

Storm Flame, Tempesta[]

Awesome - Reborn! Storm Flame

The Storm Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color: Red.

Characteristic: Disintegrazione (Italian for "Disintegration").

Ability: The rapid erosion of matter and/or energy.

Description: Highly offensive, the Storm Flame is capable of corroding away anything it touches; including other Dying Will Flames. Storm Flame users are known for being very aggressive and impatient, quick to end a situation if they don't like the course it's taking. However, they also tend to be very thoughtful and intelligent when given the chance to display such attributes. They've been said by the First Vongola Storm Guardian, G. to be like the storm: Fierce and unforgiving to all who endanger their loved ones, but calm and focused at their core. One notable Storm Flame wielder is Ynot.

Appearance: Out of all the Dying Will Flames, Storm Flames resemble normal fire the most. They have a core of ordinary red, surrounded by whitish pink that fades into a very deep shade of crimson.

Rain Flame, Pioggia[]

Awesome - Reborn! Rain Flame

The Rain Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color: Blue.

Characteristic: Calma (Italian for "Tranquility").

Ability: The appeasement and/or dulling of other forces.

Description: Despite their name, Rain Flames more resemble water than actual fire. Their characteristic holds the meaning of stillness and pacification; thus, Rain Flame users are capable of robbing a target of their strength and, at their greatest level, can even produce ice. Those who possess the Rain Flame are generally very peaceful and friendly as well as protective of their friends, most often doing whatever they can to help. Like a nice, soft rain, they easily calm others. However, there are some who're ferocious and abrasive, more aggressive in protecting what's important to them and in keeping the peace, like a torrential downpour that wears down the opposition. A notable character to possess the Rain Flame is Shroom.

Appearance: Besides their color, Rain Flames have shimmer-like patterns flowing through them, giving them an appearance similar to rippling water. The core is of a dark blue, while the oscillating edges possess a lighter tone.

Sun Flame, Sereno[]

Awesome - Reborn! Sun Flame

The Sun Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color: Yellow.

Characteristic: Attivia (Italian for "Activation").

Ability: The stimulation and/or augmentation of action(s).

Description: The Sun Flame is able to not only induce, but also improve the overall efficiency of any activity making it ideal for those in a supporting role, allowing them to heal and strengthen their allies. However, this same quality also makes it difficult to use in direct combat. Normally, Sun Flame users react to situations similarly to Storm Flame users, but are much more optimistic and full of energy. Highly social, they strive to motivate others to do better. On a sad day, like sunbeams, they'll warm you up and keep you going and even when all hope seems lost and the dark clouds of doom loom eminently, they bring new hope by bursting right in and rekindling their allies' spirits. Notable people who possess a Sun Flame include Moss and Violetta.

Appearance: Sun Flames possess a whitish core enveloped by layers of yellow-colored rays. Their most noticeable feature are the constant sparkles they radiate, similar to miniature stars. They seem to be in constant motion, spiking in some places and flowing in others.

Lightning Flame, Fulmine[]

Awesome - Reborn! Lightning Flame

The Lightning Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color: Green.

Characteristic: Indurimento (Italian for "Hardening").

Ability: Solidifying and strengthening objects.

Description: The Lightning Flames are, in many ways, more akin to electricity than flames. Their unique trait can be employed to harden and increase the firmness of objects. By themselves, the Flames can be used defensively by projecting a solid barrier and offensively as either cutting attacks or electric shocks. Users of the Lightning Flame tend to be very self-sacrificing and loyal to those they care about, trying to take on the burdens and pain of others. However, just like that of lightning, they tend to be unpredictable with a firm set of morals that are as unstoppable as a lightning strike. They'll usually be the ones right on the front lines, taking hits for the sakes of their comrades. Those who're known to possess this Flame include Levi and Franz.

Appearance: Lightning Flames have a center that is an off-white green and constantly emit sharp "spikes" of a dark, neon green. They also have a tendency to form round shapes, with sharper parts often flailing around.

Cloud Flame, Nuvola[]

Awesome - Reborn! Cloud Flame

The Cloud Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color: Purple.

Characteristic: Riproduzione (Italian for "Propagation").

Ability: The replication and/or growth of objects.

Description: Cloud Flames are able to reproduce anything at an incredibly fast rate, well-suited for increasing the size and/or multiplying the number of things. They're also excellent for techniques that must cover a large area, like barriers. Users of Cloud Flames are often aloof and distant, like the drifting clouds they represent; unfettered by bonds in all but the rarest of cases, impossible for anyone (even those who're superior in rank) to simply order around. All the same though, they're incredibly loyal and reliable when it's necessary and most wouldn't think of anyone but a Cloud Flame user to lead the way on the most dangerous of missions. One notable user of Cloud Flames is Namah.

Appearance: While the core is a clear purple, the surrounding flame is a very pale violet. Also, these Flames are the most oblique and unstable-looking of the Dying Will Flames of the Sky.

Mist Flame, Nebbia[]

Color: Indigo.

Awesome - Reborn! Mist Flame

Katekyo Hitman Reborn! is Property of Akira Amano.

Characteristic: Construzione (Italian for "Construction").

Ability: The production and manipulation of phantasmal objects.

Description: The unique trait of Mist Flames makes them natural illusionists, with especially talented users being able to create "Real Illusions"; however, these cases are rare and, because of the Mist Flames naturally low hardness, they aren't very good in a head-to-head fight. Mist Flame users lean towards being manipulative, twisting people and situations in their favor like chess masters, using subtle actions and well-timed, precisely orchestrated schemes to obscure anything they please, like a thick mist concealing the approach of oncoming dangers. Alternatively, they can be very complacent and agreeable, making it surprisingly easy for others to take advantage of them, not unlike a light mist flowing with its surroundings. Also, a Mist Flame wielder's greatest weakness can often be letting their imagination run away with them and, at times, being incredibly gullible. Notable users of the Mist Flame include Chrome Dokuro and Spitz.

Appearance: Starts out as a soft white, before fading to a pale indigo at the edges. It has a very hazy, indistinct appearance to them.

Dying Will Flames of the Earth[]

Forest Flame, Foresta[]

Awesome - Reborn! Forest Flame

The Forest Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color: Dark Green

Characteristic: Stimolazione, "Stimulation"

Ability: Starting, sustaining, and accelerating natural processes.

Description: Forest Flames are nearly identical in principal to the Sun Flames. Their characteristic of Stimolazione - "Stimulation" - Means that they can begin, sustain, and accelerate natural processes. However, their use is nearly an opposite of the Sun Flames.

While Sun Flames are good for support and healing, though difficult to use in direct combat, Forest Flames are very useful in combat, but are quite hard for use in mending wounds and boosting the abilities of allies. They also seem to cut instead of burn, and one of their greatest strengths is the capability to manipulate plantlife.

Like the forest they represent, users of the Forest Flame are full of life, resourceful, and always there when someone needs their help. Like a sheltering forest, they'll be a shoulder to cry on - Like the many materials for supplementing life from the forest, there are endless ways they can and will think of to help. A forest is constantly growing and expanding, even if you don't see it; changing to suit the needs of itself and those who depend on it. Forest Flame users are always improving themselves, competitive to a fault, and incredible learners. A notable user of this Flame is Koyo Aoba of the Simon Famiglia.

Appearance: Are a dark green, and shaped vaguely like leaves. Occasionally, one of these "leaves" will fall off and float away, before fading. These Flames possess a tendency to form spiked, radial shapes, and it seems that when being used, two crossing rings of black runes surrounded by a green glow circle around the Flames's user.

Swamp Flame, Palude[]

Awesome - Reborn! Swamp Flame

The Swamp Flame and Katekyo Hitman Reborn! are Property of Akira Amano.

Color - Dark Purple

Characteristic - Fermentazione, "Fermentation"

Ability - Corruption and dissolution

Description: The abilities of Swamp Flames seem to parallel Storm Flames in regards to focus. Just as the Storm Flames are focused on offense via disintegration, the Swamp Flames corrupt and dissolve matter. However, while it has been implied that this Flame can attack organic tissue, it is unknown whether this effect can be imposed on other Dying Will Flames.

Like the swamp, users of this Flame are entirely unique. Their own individuals, Swamp Flame users are often shunned by those who don't have the capability nor the desire to understand them. Yet once again like the swamp, taking the time to understand them reveals dynamic character and incredible gifts. Notable users of this Flame include P. Shitt of the Simon Famiglia.

Appearance: Colored a dark purple, these Flames are distantly shaped like rippling water in a swamp. They possess a rippling, fairly chaotic form, and have a tendency to coalesce into large, rounded structures. Notably, unlike the Forest Flame, the Swamp Flames lack any glowing runes circling the user. This may be due to an unknown quality of the Dying Will Flames of the Earth.

Rings[]

Contrary to what some may believe, Dying Will Rings do not contain their own Flames. Instead, they release the latent Dying Will Flames within a user, allowing for much more advanced techniques, longer and greater usage of the Flames without tiring, and finally, the activation of Box Weapons. As a note, a few "Rings" are not actually rings at all, instead items like bracelets or belt buckles. While these items are named accordingly to their shape, they work just as fine as a normal Ring.

Box Weapon[]

Named because they are contained within fist-sized cubes with singular, small holes on top, Box Weapons were originally just that - Weapons for combat that utilized Dying Will Flames. However, over the years, the system evolved to include many Box Animals - And the Box Animals very well may outnumber the regular Box Weapons by now. Every Box Weapon requires a Dying Will Ring and a small input of Flames to unlock them, and are primarily sustained by the Flames of their user.
