“As for example: the Salamander made in fashion of a Lizard, marked with spots like to stars, never comes abroad and sheweth it selfe but in great showers; for in faire weather he is not seene. He is of so cold a complexion, that if hee do but touch the fire, hee wil quench it as presently, as if yce were put into it.

Useful Info
Salamanders are aggressive fiery relatives of the naga, capable of comfortably travelling through lava, usually carrying flaming melee weapons or bows. Unsurprisingly, they are fully immune to fire damage, but are vulnerable to cold. You can find them in the Snake Pit and the Depths.
Tips & Tricks
- Fire resistance cuts away most of their damage-dealing capabilities.
- In spite of the name, the salamander hide armour cannot be crafted from a salamander's corpse.
History
Prior to 0.14, salamanders could not leave the pools of lava they spawned in.
