Are they temperature and moisture sensitive? Do they absorb environmental toxins through their skin?

ALMOST forgot to respond to this.

Okay so they DO need moist environments to survive (I’m just tickled by the idea that a race with fire magic needs wet environments to live).  They’re also sensitive to the cold, but highly resistant to the heat.  Since the Shallow Seas don’t get any colder than about 10-15 degrees Celsius, they aren’t too worried about freezing to death.

Toxins I’m not so sure.  I think THEY might be toxic, but I don’t think they’re as susceptible to environmental toxins as actual salamanders.  Really, they’re more based off of newts, so their skin isn’t as wet and slimy and it’s a bit, I guess, tougher.

Tagging the squad under the cut cus this is kinda relevant info.
