Special
Petrifying Bite
Any living creature bitten must save vs. Petrify or be turned to stone.
Special
Stone to Sand
Can temporarily transform any stone within a 20 foot radius into sand. Characters in the affected area must save vs. Paralysis each round in order to move through the sand, and if the save is successful, the character is still reduced to half their normal movement. When the sand salamander moves out of range, the sand congeals back into stone, and any character in the affected area must save vs. Paralysis or become trapped.
Special
Damage Resistance
Immune to piercing attacks (such as spears or arrows) and suffers half damage from cutting attacks.
Special
Languages
Intelligent and can speak the language of the Plane of Earth; many may also know Elvish, Common, or Dragon.
Environments
planar
Giant sea turtle-like creature from the Elemental Plane of Earth with six flippers and a serpentine neck
Sand salamanders come from the Elemental Plane of Earth. A sand salamander resembles a giant sea turtle with six flippers and a serpentine neck and head, with scales of varying shades of gray or brown.
The sand salamander's most feared attack is its bite, for any living creature bitten by one must save vs. Petrify or be turned to stone. In addition to attacking, a sand salamander can temporarily transform any stone within a 20 foot radius into sand. Characters in the affected area must save vs. Paralysis each round in order to move through the sand, and if the save is successful, the character is still reduced to half their normal movement. Whenever the sand salamander moves out of range, the sand "congeals" back into stone, and any character in the affected area must save vs. Paralysis or become trapped. Extraction of a trapped person may take quite a long time, chipping and hammering at the stone to break it apart.
