Magma Scorpion

Whether skittering through Chthonian wastelands or basking in the searing sand of the deepest deserts, magma scorpions have charred carapaces, constantly emitting vision-warping waves of heat.

Elemental, Fire

Source Monster Core pg. 144 ^1.1
Fire elementals are destructive manifestations of the scorching Plane of Fire. Although most fire elementals revel in the chance to experience new kinds of fires away from their home plane, even the most considerate fire elemental can be a danger to humanoids and their property.

The Elemental Planes—primordial realms defined by aspects of air, earth, fire, or water—are home to a diverse group of beings known as elementals. Spellcasters on the Material Plane call upon elementals for aid, though these enigmatic creatures can also travel to the world of mortals via interplanar gateways and rifts. The elementals on these pages exemplify the creatures of the Elemental Planes, but this list is by no means exhaustive.

Diverse Elementals

The Elemental Planes are more than expanses of sky, rock, metal fire, wood, and ocean. Clouds of fog, dust, and storms float through the Plane of Air. The Plane of Earth includes verdant groves, shining metal and crystal, and irradiated wastelands. The Plane of Fire features magma, suffocating smoke, and radiant firelight. Amid the endless sea of the Plane of Water are pockets of ooze and brine, plus the otherworldly environs of the deep.

Elemental Temperaments

More than other elementals, fire elementals tend to hold more extreme views. However, they do tend away from stagnation and often seek change in one form or another. Fire’s inherently capricious nature seems to prevent these creatures from submitting to authority, but the right leaders can direct their often destructive nature by appealing to it.

Elemental Wyrms

The icewyrm is the most widely encountered elemental wyrm, but others exist as well, including the blazing firewyrm, the sleek but somewhat smaller sparkwyrm, and the largest of them all, the immense and acidic sludgewyrm.

Fire Elemental Treasure

Often, nothing remains after defeating a fire elemental but a pile of ashes and the fading smell of smoke. But sometimes, fragments of their elemental power remain behind. At the GM’s discretion, a fire elemental can leave behind ashes, lumps of charcoal, or ever-smoldering cinders that are valuable components for the construction of fire-themed magic items.
