Lore

This skill is a reference to the story of Bilbo's journey to the dragon Smaug, in which the wizard Gandalf saves the day when they are high in trees, surrounded by goblins and wargs. The name of the skill is mentioned when Beorn returns from scouting the goblins afterwards:

"From these he (Beorn, red.) had got news: the goblin patrols were still hunting with Wargs for the dwarves, and they were fiercely angry because of the death of the Great Goblin, and also because of the burning of the chief wolf's nose and the death from the wizard's fire of many of his chief servants."

Animation

The Lore-master draws a sign in the air with their staff, causing their target to burn from within. Small flames dance through the air around the victim for the duration of the dot. Each hit the chest lights up with a larger, yellow flare.
