Useful Info
Fire dragons are powerful, flying monsters with potent fire breath, near-immunity to fire, and vulnerability to cold. They are by no means the deadliest of the dragons in the game, but they can make short work of careless mid-level characters. They may be found in certain vaults in the Lair, but are more common in the Vaults, the Depths, and the Realm of Zot.
Ability: Fire Breath (3d24 fire damage)
Spells

Tips & Tricks
- Butchering a fire dragon's corpse may produce a fire dragon hide, which you can enchant to create a fire dragon armour.
- If you have any sources of fire resistance, wear them now, as a fire dragon's breath can prove devastating, especially to characters with fire vulnerability. Mummies without a source of fire resistance should probably stay very far away from any fire dragons they find.
- Transmuters may wish to choose their form carefully around fire dragons: they resist poison, negating much of the damage that Spider Form can provide (though the form's high evasion might help you dodge the fire breath), and while Ice Form can deal heavy damage, users without a ring of fire resistance are left very vulnerable to the fire breath.
History
In 0.14 they were renamed from dragons to fire dragons to avoid confusion.
