## Special Features

**_Death Burst_**. When the mephit dies, it explodes in a burst of lava. Each creature within 5 feet of it must make a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw, taking 7 (2d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

**_False Appearance_**. While the mephit remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary mound of magma.

**_Innate Spellcasting (1/Day)_**. The mephit can innately cast _[heat metal](srd_spells_heat_metal.md)_ (spell save DC 10), requiring no material components. Its innate spellcasting ability is Charisma.

## Actions

**_Claws_**. Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature.

_Hit_: 3 (1d4 + 1) slashing damage plus 2 (1d4) fire damage.

**_Fire Breath (Recharge 6)_**. The mephit exhales a 15-foot cone of fire. Each creature in that area must make a DC 11 Dexterity saving throw, taking 7 (2d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
