SPECIAL ABILITIES

Gates of Hades (Su)

3/day, Cerberus can launch an explosive fireball within a 100 ft. in a 20-ft.-radius. Creatures within the area of effect take 8d6 points of fire damage and inflicts the Burning status effect for 1d6+2 rounds. A successful Reflex save (DC 24) reduces the damage by half and negates the status effect. Blue mages may learn this ability as a 4th level spell (Knowledge: Arcana DC 23).

Magma Hoplon (Su)

Once per day, Cerberus can surround itself with a red, fiery barrier. Cerberus gains 10/- DR and creatures attacking it with natural weapons, unarmed strikes, or handheld weapons take 3d6 points of fire damage for 1 minute. Blue mages may learn this ability as a 7th level spell (Knowledge: Arcana DC 29).

Sulfurous Breath (Ex)

Once every 1d4+1 rounds, Cerberus can emit a 60-ft.-cone of deadly fiery breath. Creatures within the area of effect take 10d6 points of fire damage (Reflex save DC 24 for half damage).
