| “ | Only two things are known for sure about the mysterious Pyro: he sets things on fire and he doesn't speak. In fact, only the part about setting things on fire is undisputed. Some believe his occasional rasping wheeze may be an attempt to communicate through a mouth obstructed by a filter and attached to lungs ravaged by constant exposure to his asbestos-lined suit. Either way, he's a fearsome, inscrutable, on-fire Frankenstein of a man - if he even is a man. | „ |

The Pyro is one of the main protagonists from the 2007 video game Team Fortress 2, serving as one of the nine playable classes.
They are a mysterious, mumbling, masked pyromaniac wielding a flamethrower. However, despite being a mercenary and an having an affinity for fire, the Pyro is actually unaware of the death and destruction they are spreading; the Pyro sees their own weapons as innocent items such as lollipops, bubble blowers and rainbow throwers when, in reality, they are deadly axes, flare guns and flamethrowers. They believe that they are spreading color and happiness, but are actually causing mass destruction and bloodshed.
Unlike all the other classes, which have an established place of origin, with the inclusion of some classes having their past and real names revealed, the Pyro's true appearance, real name, location of origin and gender are never revealed. The Pyro's mystery is their most prominent trait, sparking many debates and theories from fans.
They were voiced by Dennis Bateman, who also voices the Spy in the same game.

- While his brutality does put him past the other mercs and the general baseline, the fact that he is generally only shown killing enemy mercenaries who are trying to kill him causes him to ultimately not meet the high heinous standards of the franchise.
- While it is ambiguous whether he is being brainwashed by the Pyrovision goggles or is a sadist who views everything he does as fun and childish, either way he has moral agency issues as they truly don't understand what they are doing and are mentally ill to the point of genuine insanity.
- They come from Team Fortress which is a universe where everything is played for laughs and nothing is meant to be taken seriously.
