Magmanos
Magmanos are hands made of liquid lava. They can stretch out, hitting foes with their fist or raising platforms in their open hand. When exposed to water, though, they instantly solidify into rock.
Magmanos are slow, and incapable of leaving the lava in which they live. However, they can deal significant damage to anyone who gets too close, particularly by grappling foolhardy adventurers, squeezing and baking them all at once.
Magmanos Lore
Novice (DC 7)
Magmanos’ inability to move on land all but guarantees that they’ll be found in caves, foundries, and other places full of flowing lava.
Journeyman (DC 10)
Though dangerous to deal with in melee, there are times it can still be useful to get in close to a Magmanos: When cooled off, they harden to stone for a time, and can serve as useful platforms.
Adept (DC 13)
When crossing large pits of lava via bridge, take a moment to look up at the ceiling. If you see stains on the ceiling, beware – Magmanos might patrol that lava, pushing sections of the bridge up into the ceiling, squashing intruding Heroes.
