Lava Saurus

Lava Saurus (D&D character concept)A Lava Saurus is a saurian humanoid birthed from a volcanic rift—its body a living basalt shell split by glowing magma seams. Every movement sheds heat; each breath smells of ash and scorched stone. Where it steps, hairline cracks spider across rock, and the ground seems to remember the fire.AppearanceHide: jagged plates of charcoal-gray stone, like cooled lava flowCore light: molten orange fissures pulse under the “skin,” brightest at the chest and throatHead: draconic/saurian with a stony crown of horned ridges; eyes burn like coalsHands/feet: heavy claws that chip stone and spark against steelAura: air shimmers with heat; embers drift off like slow snowNPC/Enemy Stat Block (5e-ready, drop-in)Lava Saurus RiftclawMedium elemental, typically neutralAC 16 (natural armor)HP 85 (10d8+40)Speed 30 ft., climb 20 ft.STR 18 (+4) DEX 12 (+1) CON 18 (+4) INT 8 (−1) WIS 12 (+1) CHA 10 (+0)Saving Throws Con +7, Str +7Skills Athletics +7, Intimidation +3, Percepti
