SPECIAL ABILITIES
Augmented Plating (Ex) Rhyol has carefully planned her diet to strengthen the armored plating that surrounds her body. Her scales are covered in mithral and adorned with small pieces of the magic-resistant skymetal noqual. Together, this plating grants her a +4 armor bonus to AC and a +1 resistance bonus on saving throws. This resistance bonus increases to +3 on saving throws against spells and spell-like abilities. These bonuses are calculated into her statistics.
Burn (Ex) If Rhyol hits a creature with her slam attack, her target must succeed at a DC 15 Reflex save or catch fire, taking 1d6 fire damage each round at the start of its turn for 1d4 rounds. A creature can attempt a DC 15 Reflex save at the beginning of its turn to put out the flames. Creatures that grapple Rhyol or attack her with natural weapons are also subject to this damage.
Elemental Traits As an elemental creature, Rhyol is immune to bleed, paralysis, poison, sleep effects, and stunning. She is not subject to critical hits or flanking.
Molten Body (Su) Rhyol’s body is hot enough to melt stone. Anyone striking her with a natural weapon or unarmed strike takes 1d6 points of fire damage. A creature that grapples her or is grappled by her takes 3d6 points of fire damage each round the grapple persists. A creature that strikes her with a manufactured weapon can attempt a DC 15 Reflex save to pull the weapon away quickly enough to avoid having the weapon take 1d6 points of fire damage—damage caused to a weapon in this manner is not halved as is normal for damage caused to items, and ignores the first 5 points of hardness possessed by the item. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Phreatic Expansion (Su) Whenever she enters a rage, Rhyol can chose to increase her size to Large. This expansion does not modify her ability scores. The base damage of her slam increases to 2d6, and her CMB and CMD both increase by 1. At the same time, she takes a –1 penalty to AC and on attack rolls, as well as a –4 penalty on Stealth checks.
Gear Rhyol carries the following piece of equipment.
Furious Amulet of Mighty Fists When Rhyol is in a rage, this amulet provides her with a +2 enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls.
Token of Fury Rhyol wears this beaten brass bangle on one of her spikes. Three times per day as a swift action, she can activate this item to grant her the Vital Strike feat (increasing her damage to 2d8 when Medium or 4d6 when Large) for 1 round.
Rhyol spent her early years in the expansive lava fields that dot the border between the Planes of Earth and Fire. Although thoqquas have a reputation for being irascible, Rhyol’s propensity for bouts of rage was notable even among her kind. Also notable was her considerable strength, which she used to carve out a sizable territory for herself. As she swam and burrowed through her volcanic domain, she came across a chunk of pale green metal that caught the light of the flames like a piece of crystal. When she took a bite of the metal, she was struck both by its unusual flavor and a sudden, odd sense of longing. She was determined to understand what this green substance was and why it could influence her mind, so she wrapped the end of her tail around it and set off to find the only type of creature she could think of that might be able to help her solve this maddening mystery: a mephit. Fire mephits, Rhyol knew, were weak, but they also gathered together in large numbers and shared knowledge. Most importantly, very few creatures other than mephits seemed to be able to understand thoqquas at all.
Finding a fire mephit willing to help her was a straightforward task, but unraveling the nature of the metal proved far more challenging than she expected. The sample passed from scholar to scholar, each of which had no record of its existence. She learned that the metal was highly resistant to magic, rebuffing most attempts at examination. In time, her mephit allies became friends, and the young thoqqua learned ways to take out her rage that did not involve violence. She also developed a curiosity about the fire mephit’s numerous cultural customs, taboos, and rituals, which to her seemed entirely pointless. As her sense of wonder and bewilderment grew, she sought out a way to communicate more effectively. With painstaking trial and error—and the occasional destructive rampage to vent frustration—she developed enough control over the sounds that steam made when it hissed through her plated hide to form intelligible words. It was this breakthrough that caught the attention of a member of the Concordance, who offered her membership on the spot. Rhyol accepted the offer, and has never looked back.
