Lava Lizard

Medium-sized predator adapted for life in volcanic regions, and remarkably able to spit molten rock at its foes.

1 Fore-mounted Mandibles

Designed to do maximum damage to prey; sharp internal teeth tear through flesh and bone alike.

2 Scar Tissue

Likely due to regular exposure to magma, lava lizards build up a thick layer of scar tissue over time, which enables them to withstand ever greater temperatures, inside and out.

3 Behavior

It is able to both defend itself by burying its body in magma, and to go on the offensive by spitting molten rock at its foes.

Assessment Avoid, especially in the presence of lava flow
