Description

Salamanders speak Ignan. Some average salamanders also speak Common.

Heat (Ex): A salamander generates so much heat that its mere touch deals additional fire damage. Salamanders' metallic weapons also conduct this heat.

Constrict (Ex): A salamander deals automatic tail slap damage (including fire damage) with a successful grapple check against creatures up to one size larger than itself.

Fire Subtype (Ex): Fire immunity, double damage from cold except on a successful save.

Skills: Salamanders receive a +4 racial bonus to Craft (metalworking) skill checks.

Feats: Salamanders have the Multiattack feat even without the requisite three natural weapons.
