Acidic Bite (Ex): The titan salamander's saliva is caustic and inflicts 1d6 points of additional acid damage on a successful bite attack.
Psionics (Sp): 3/day - burst, lesser concussion, vigor. Manifester level 4th.
Attack/Defense Modes (Sp): At will - id insinuation/empty mind.
DM's Option: The titan salamander can be used as a special mount for a lizardfolk paladin, while the psionic version is appropriate for a psionic multiclassed lizardfolk paladin. The titan can be called at 5th level per the normal rules.
Wild titan salamanders are nocturnal and consider any creature of small size as potential food. If they encounter anything larger, they prefer to flee. If forced to fight, they try to move the combat into a water source and use their bite to best effect.
Aquatic Subtype
Creatures with the aquatic subtype always have swim speeds and thus can move in water without making Swim checks. An aquatic creature can breathe underwater. It cannot also breathe air unless it has the amphibious special quality.
