This scaled creature is roughly the size of a dog and has a line of star-like markings down its back. It seems quite disinterested in your party, instead content to sit comfortably in the midst of a blazing bonfire.
Salamanders produce a milky secretion that coats their skin and grants them their incredible cold- and fire-based powers, as well as their extreme toxicity. Alchemists prize this secretion and are willing to pay handsomely for the capture of live salamanders.
Combat Abilities
A salamander has no natural predators and no interest in beginning combat. If attacked they instinctively alternate between biting and using their breath weapon, but readily flee if even moderately wounded.
Breath Weapon (Ex)
10-foot cube, cloud of the salamander's poison (see below) lasting 1 round, once every 1d4 rounds.
Fire Shield (Su)
A salamander is always protected by a fire shield (caster level 7th). It may switch between the warm and chill versions of the spell as a free action. The shield can be dispelled, but the salamander can create it again as a free action on its next turn.
Poison (Ex)
Contact or injury, Fortitude DC 16, initial damage 1d4 Con, secondary damage 2d4 Con. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Any creature that strikes a salamander with a natural weapon (including unarmed strikes) or grapples with it is exposed to the salamander's poison, but only once per round.
Spell-Like Abilities (Sp)
At will-pyrotechnics (DC 8, using the salamander's flame shield as the flame), quench (DC 9). Caster level 7th. The save DCs are Charisma-based.
Improved Familiar
An alchemical salamander may be selected as a familiar by a spellcaster with the Improved Familiar feat.
