Fire lizard is a type of monster in ADOM. They are fire breathing monsters that start to show up quite early in the game. Like most creatures of fire they are immune to heat, but highly vulnerable to cold spells; spellcasters that start with cold spells, esp. necromancers, certainly have an extra degree of protection should they meet these very early in the game.

Corpse effects[]
Eating a fire lizard has a 10% chance of granting intrinsic fire resistance; the message "You suddenly shiver." is generated when this occurs, instead of the usual "This stuff cools you down!".
Monster memory[]
From the hidden places where fire touches earth comes the much more dangerous cousin of the common cave lizard: the fire lizard. Bright red to red-black tough scales cover the large predator. Beware, for when you see the red glow inside its completely black maw it might already be too late to run.
