Salamanders speak Ignan. Some average salamanders and all nobles also speak Common.
Combat
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. A noble salamander can constrict multiple creatures simultaneously, provided they are all at least two sizes smaller than it.
Spell-Like Abilities: (Noble salamanders only) 3/day- burning hands, fireball, flaming sphere, and wall of fire; 1/day- dispel magic and summon monster VII (huge fire elemental). These abilities are as the spells cast by a 15th-level sorcerer (save DC 12 + spell level).
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.
Salamander Characters
Average or noble salamanders may be clerics, sorcerers, or fighters (their favored class).
