Composed entirely of elemental flame, the majestic blazing red phoenix resembles a deadly bird of prey, with a short hooked beak, a compact muscular frame, wide wingspan, and sharp talons.  Its unearthly form is a constant wreathing of elemental fire that is at once blinding as it is scalding.

Hunting Strategies

Will attempt a rebirth maneuver, resurrecting itself when killed. The chance to successfully perform this is increased substantially if there is a living Ash Guardian in the room.

Phoenixes are able to burn away the effects of Web (118):

The phoenix releases a torrent of elemental fire from its body, instantly disintegrating the webs attempting to ensnare it.

Other disables such as Bind (214) and the root flare from Sigil Staves are not affected by this ability.

Other Information

Claw (attack)

A blazing red phoenix rakes at you with a razor-sharp claw!
  AS: +390 vs DS: +747 with AvD: +35 + d100 roll: +3 = -319

Bite (attack)

>A blazing red phoenix gnashes at you with a flaming maw!
  AS: +380 vs DS: +747 with AvD: +32 + d100 roll: +1 = -334
   A clean miss.

Immolation (519)

A blazing red phoenix flaps its wings of flame at you!
  CS: +377 - TD: +322 + CvA: +15 + d100: +77 - +40 == +107
  Warding failed!
Wisps of black smoke swirl around your body as it bursts into flame causing 3 points of damage!
   ... 25 points of damage!
   Flames burn hole in chest exposing ribs!
   You are stunned for 5 rounds!
   ... 15 points of damage!
   Burst of flames char abdomen a crispy black.
   ... 5 points of damage!
   Minor burns to abdomen.  Feels painful.
The flames around you continue to burn!

When ignited by Immolation, the wise adventurer should remember to Stop, Drop and Roll!(Use ROLL while prone)

Major Elemental Wave (435)

A blazing red phoenix flaps its wings of flame at you!
A wave of crimson ethereal ripples moves outward from a blazing red phoenix.
You are buffeted by the crimson ethereal waves and are pinned in place, unable to move.
Roundtime: 16 sec.
Your wiregrass anklet pulses briefly, deflecting some of the burning damage!
   ... 10 points of damage!
   Burst of flames to right hand burns fingers bright red.

Double fire flares/Mage Armor (520)

Phoenixes have the fire aspect of Mage Armor, meaning that any bolt or melee attack has the potential for fire flares. They also receive fire flares on all melee attacks due to their magical beak, so there is the potential for a double fire flare on melee attacks!

A blazing red phoenix gnashes at you with a flaming maw!
  AS: +380 vs DS: +377 with AvD: +32 + d100 roll: +99 = +134
   ... and hits for 18 points of damage!
   Minor puncture to the right leg.
 ** The fiery torrent of energy surrounding a blazing red phoenix flares toward you! **

 ** The blazing red phoenix's beak crackles with flame! **
Your wiregrass anklet pulses briefly, deflecting some of the burning damage!
   ... 5 points of damage!
   Minor burns to right leg.  That hurts a bit.

Rebirth

The ashen remains of the phoenix smolder fitfully.  Slowly, the flakes begin to drift upward, swirling in a widening gyre thick with smoke and sparks.  Then, in an explosive blast of scalding brilliance, the burning ash is forcefully scattered by the violent, glorious rebirth of a blazing red phoenix!
