Monsters -- Timaba Phoenix

Phoenix, Timaba
Hailing from the fiery, volcanic island Timaba in the northern nation of Nyce, where fire and ice clash constantly, the so called phoenixes of Timaba have been recently been introduced to the mainland as familiars and pets. Naturally at home in both oppressive heat and intense cold, Timaba phoenixes have become a symbol of heartiness in Nyce.

The birds mate for life, living most of their lives on ice flows, eating fish and smaller birds. In the coldest month of winter, they flock around Timaba to mate and nest in the volcanic calderas. Phoenix eggs require temperatures in excess of 300 degrees to hatch.

Female phoenixes are the larger gender, with black plumage ranging to purple. Males have red, orange and purple feathers.

COMBAT
In defense of nest, mate or master, Timaba phoenixes attack with flyby attacks and use their Blaze Aura to deal additional damage.

Blaze Aura (Su): When agitated, a Timaba phoenix can superheat the air around it as a standard action. Any creature adjacent to the phoenix takes 1d10 fire damage. A reflex save (DC 14) reduces this damage by half. This save is Constitution-based.

Timaba Phoenix Familiars
A spellcaster with the improved familiar feat, who is at least 5th level can acquire a Timaba Phoenix as a familiar.
