Lore
Hellfire is a channeled warlock spell which causes a small amount of damage to all nearby hostile targets - as well as the warlock themselves - every second while it is being channeled. The spell is commonly used to clear weak "trash" mobs, although the warlock will likely need healing in order to ensure they do not themselves succumb to the spell's damage.
Trivia
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "Through the Dark Portal" series, for the card Hellfire.
- This card's art depicts a Forsaken warlock using Hellfire to damage a number of murlocs. This is likely a reference to a scene from the cinematic trailer for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, where another Forsaken warlock uses Hellfire to defend against a group murlocs rushing towards him in a swamp.
