Flamelets are small tongues of flame that can imitate speech or sound, and form into fiery images of beings or objects. They feed on normal fire fuel. Very well trained flamelets can remember up to an hour of sound and formed detailed pictures, and know only to show and tell things to their owner or the person their owner sends them with a message to.

Flamelets can transport to anywhere there is a fire -- from one fireplace to a candle to a wildfire, for instance. Most people who own flamelets carry bottled magefire so their flamelets can return to them any time. After transporting, the flamelets need a good amount of fuel to grow to their normal size -- transportation takes a lot of energy.

They don't talk on their own -- they're incapable of making sentences by themselves -- but they can make flame shapes to communicate. Most flamelets have a favored shape or form they use when not imitating other beings. They're about five inches tall and can change color, as long as that color is blue, white, or a shade of red and orange. They can control their heat, and only burn whom they choose to burn. Water is deadly to them, and they need some oxygen and fuel. Flamelets are created by mages only, and are somewhat expensive -- poor or middle-class people rarely have these as pets.
