    Fire itselt doesn’t necessarily leave marks on the stone floor unless it’s long and hot enough to melt stone, that’s just byproducts of stuff not burning properly.

    The testing familiar -just like yours- didn’t leave any traces in all the trial runs, it just vanished to its realm of origin.

    Now, continue playing your class instead of cosplaying as a rules lawyer.

      Take a lighter to a rock. Fires leave char. There are very few combustion systems with a pure enough burn to avoid it.

      That’s not rules lawyering at all. If a player asks why they didn’t spot that the easy answer is they didn’t realize it was char.

          Synonyms.

          And sure, that’s another explanation agm could use, I wasn’t being comprehensive or I’d be here forever.

            Char is burnt bits of the object that’s being broiled.

            Soot is the incomplete product of comustion of the fuel.

            They’re not synonyms, not anymore than “waves” and “tides” are. And if you have a high enough oxygen environment, propane won’t leave any soot.

              Did you understand the communication being made? Clearly so. Looks like I used adequate wording.

              Getting high oxygen isn’t enough, you need propane purity and oxidizer purity (the not air inert gas and oxygen mix) or you get unburnt products. You also need perfect mixing, and essentially an adiabatic chamber. There is no combustion chamber on this earth outside of some absurd combustion lab that doesn’t have soot buildup.

              Not things you’d find in a dusty standard ass DND dungeon. But please continue bending over backwards to justify why you couldn’t just day “you didn’t think anything of it”
