Icon Lamp of fire.png
A magical device for summoning fire elementals. It is rather unreliable, and usually requires several attempts to function correctly. Using it carries an element of risk, which is reduced if one is skilled in the appropriate elemental magic.

A lamp of fire is an evocable item which allows you fire powerful gouts of flame at your opponents. You may choose a target tile, and up to three blasts of flame will be launched in that general direction, generating flame clouds along their path and up to three fire elementals near the target. The higher your Evocations skill, the more damage the flames will deal and the more likely you are to get multiple fire elementals.

History

Prior to 0.13, this item simply allowed you to summon fire elementals one at a time from flaming clouds or lava.

Prior to 0.9, it appeared unidentified as a blazing lamp.
