Energy Substitution (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/divine/divineAbilitiesFeats.htm#energySubstitut ion), make everything a fire spell!

No, can't really think of anything else. You may want to check out Races of the Dragon, that has a lot of kobold info.

If Psionics are allowed, the Pyrokineticist PrC from Expanded Psionics Handbook will work great for an arsonist. Just needs a Chaotic alignment component, must have set fire to a structure just to watch it burn, and a few other prerequisites to apply. Hope that helps.

Wait a sec... if an alienist converts his summoned monsters to aliens... what does an arsenist convert his summoned monsters into?

In 3.0 Song and Silence, there was a feat called Pyro.

I think it gave you +1 damage per die of fire damage you dealt.

We may not want to think about that, or else all the fanatics will come and burn us at the stake.;) :cool:

try to get your DM to let you get Pyrokineticist.

The requirements for Pyrokineticist:
Alightnment: Any Chaotic.
Skills: Concentration 8 ranks, Craft (Alchemy) 1 rank, Knowledge (Psionics) 2 ranks
Psionics: Must have a power point reserve of at least 1 power point.
Special: Must have sest fire to a structure of any size just to watch it burn.

You are a sorcerer, so you probably aready have concentration and craft is a class skill. Knowledge (Psionics) is cross class but the requirements too difficult. You can also easily meet the power point reserve requirement by taking the Wild Talent feat (also out of Expanded Psionics).

Energy Substitution (out of complete arcane) is nice since it allows you to change any spell with an energy discriptor to the element of your choice (chosen when you pick the feat). So if you chose Energy Substitution (Fire) you can have any energy spell deal fire damage instead of whatever it normal does. Example, you could cast a ray of frost that deals fire damage instead.

Searing Spell.
I remember an idea where we put Alchemest's fire/Necklace of Fireballs in a spiky ball with a nail on the inside. Massive explosion with shrapnel. :mage:
