Special
Heat Aura
Can be sensed up to 30-ft away. Touching a lava mephit without protection causes 1d8 points of damage. Claw attacks deal 1 point of damage plus 1d8 points of heat damage to any opponent not protected against fire or heat damage.
Special
Breath Weapon
Every 3 rounds lava mephits can spit a blob of molten lava as a breath weapon, up to 8 times before recharging. The projectile has a 10-ft range, always hits the mephit's target, and inflicts 1d6 hp with no saving throw.
Special
Regeneration
When in contact with molten lava the lava mephit can regenerate 2 hp per round, but if killed it cannot regenerate back to life as a troll does. Contact with lava also allows the mephit to recharge its breath weapon.
Special
Metal Dissolution
The touch of a lava mephit dissolves metal rather quickly, destroying plate mail armour in 3 melee rounds. Wood is dissolves a little more slowly, about an inch per hour of contact.
Special
Shape Change
The lava mephit can shape-change into a pool of lava but doing so will not recharge the mephit's breath weapon or allow it to regenerate.
Special
Gate
Lava mephits can gate in 1d2 mephits once per hour with a 25% chance of success. There is an equal chance of gating in any type of mephit but if two are gated they will be the same type.
Red mephits that sweat droplets of molten lava
Lava mephits are red in colour and sweat droplets of molten lava. As a result, the lava mephit is so hot it can be sensed up to 30-ft away. Touching one without protection results in 1d8 points of damage.
In combat lava mephits claw for 1 point of damage, plus the 1d8 points of heat damage to any opponent not protected against fire or heat damage.
