History
Final Fantasy series
Final Fantasy II
In Final Fantasy II, Salamanders are encountered in the world map area surrounding Mysidia (after obtaining the Ultima Tome), Jade Passage (floors B1-B3), and Arcane Labyrinth (Cauldron, Giants). They are relatives of Basilisks, Catoblepases, and Ice Lizards. Salamanders have one enemy ability, Blaze XVI, in which they deal Fire-elemental damage to the entire party. Salamanders are weak to Ice-elemental attacks. Salamanders have the same basic appearance as Basilisks except for their red skin
In the unreleased Nintendo Entertainment System prototype, they are named R.Lizard.
Final Fantasy III
In Final Fantasy III, a Salamander is fought as a boss in the Molten Cave. In the original Famicom version, Salamander is a purple dragon with an orange belly and spots, and it is breathing pink fire. In the 3D remake, its body has been changed to red.
Final Fantasy Legend series
The Final Fantasy Legend
In The Final Fantasy Legend, they are named LIZARD, and like other monsters, they can be encountered as either an enemy or be a party member. As enemies, LIZARDs are only encountered in the world map area surrounding the Tower's first floor. Their only usable attack is BITE, and they are vulnerable to Ice attacks like in Final Fantasy II. LIZARDs have five transformations, in order of: P-FROG, GECKO, DINOSAUR, SALAMAND, and lastly BASILISK. Both LIZARD and SALAMAND have the Japanese name of "Salamander," albeit with different spellings, although the latter's Japanese name is spelled the same in other Final Fantasy games. Like other monsters and their respective transformations, LIZARD's sprite is the same throughout all of its forms.
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
In Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, they are named Salamand like in the Final Fantasy Legend trilogy, but their name is formatted in lowercase. Salamands are only encountered in the Lava Dome, and are the stronger relative of both Basilisks and Flazzards. Salamands can use a variety of attacks including Flame, Thunder, Poison Breath, Fang, and Claw. Salamands retain their vulnerability to Ice attacks, specifically Blizzard. Unlike their other appearances, Salamands have a dark green body.
