AnvilSnareLANDelementalfire
Salamanders have serpentine lower torsos, but humanoid upper bodies with toothy reptilian snouts. Their affinity for cruelty and violence puts them in close alliance with the demons of the Abyss. Fire elementals are destructive manifestations of the scorching Plane of Fire.
