@DragonParadox, given how deep the implied power of a Firewyrm is in this setting (seriously, needing a full Flight of Dragonlords to control one?) what is their CR when full grown?
I thought those we Linnorm knockoffs. Are they something else?

They are definitely not Linnorms.
EDIT: Though I'd love to kill Linnorms at some point.
Night guys, see you tomorrow with the meditation and the account of what's going on in Mossovy.
I mean the magma things in Valyria sounded like a reskinned non sapient Tor Linorm. Maybe weaker and with wings I dont remember very well.

They might look similar, but their intelligence would have to be lower than three or we'd have heard a lot more about them both in canon and in the quest. Also DP would have linked it since we passed the knowledge check to recognize what a Firewyrm is back when Ymeri was about to wake up the one under Volantis.
I can confirm this from what Viserys knows IC, firewyrms were not sentient, they had to be herded into laying down the straight roads by magic and dragonfire.

Do we have a rough idea of the CR since Saenena has personal experience with them (where else would the egg come from?) and Viserys apparently made that knowledge check?

Would Viserys know the immunities and resistances of such a thing or is that no dice?

It's interesting that they could be herded with Dragon fire. Were they not immune to Fire, or was it an instictive or built-in behavior to shy away from the flame?

They burrow in volcanos, so Fire Immunity is a safe bet. Not sure about others.

Well, they are admittedly efficient about the use of their time, if nothing else...Looks fairly effective to me...
...wait, we still talking about Vayrians?
Are fire Wyrms actually different than red dragons? For all we know, they could be the remains of the oldest living reds; the ones that were wyrmlings/young adults when the curse hit.
Edit: thinking on it, I'd bet that it's something at the very least related to dragons. For Valyria the secret ingredient is always dragons (or devils I suppose). If not leftover dragons from the revolution, then perhaps some kind of devil-feral dragon cross.

Fire immunity certainly, they might also have the usual suite of draconic imunities to sleep and paralyses too.

I have an idea in mind for this thing now. Dragon immunities...how interesting.

I think it's something far older than that.
Look at this one variant of Tiamat's origin story:
She was crafted from a snakelike creature native to Prime Material, one with a kinship to fire.
Also @DragonParadox, no response for the rough CR of a Firewyrm? If we know about it IC we should have the info OOC.

Proposed level up for Maelor. I agree with @TalonofAnathrax that we should go with Nauseating Blast for his new Greater Invocation. Nausea is a very effective way to shut an enemy down.
Greater Blink is another great spell Maelor could sorta inherit from Viserys. It's got great defensive and utility properties. We'll give him an upgraded pair of Boots of the Wide Earth to give him access to Teleport. Teleport is of limited use to him in the City of Brass right now due to the city-wide wards.

I agree with this vote.
When he next gets a feat, I'll vote for Extra Invocation (Eldritch Chain). Or is there a way to get that through an item?
Are you suggesting that these are the Nameless One's prototypes for Tiamat, or Tiamat's prototypes for dragons?
