Description
The brimstone pudding is an elemental aspect of sulphur, common in mines where magical energies are in close proximity to volcanic activity. Their flammability serves as a natural population control, since lava is almost always found near the places they spring into being.
When in normal form the pudding appears as a yellow mass, flecking with black spots and impurities from ground it has passed over.
When ignited the pudding takes a red sheen over the yellow core as it becomes more molten. Blue flame envelopes it and the area around it is wreathed in poisonous fumes as the brimstone burns.
