Planet of origin

Eol Sha

The fireworm or lava dragon was a fire serpent, native to Eol Sha, that dwelt in molten lava pools. It was covered in crystalline scales that protected it from the lava; without this protection it was extremely vulnerable to its environment.

In physical appearance, it had a triangular head, with pointed ear tufts and bony eye ridges. Insulated air bladders allowed the lava dragon to rise or sink in the lava. Lava dragons fed on other reptiles that dwelt within the lava pools.

Lava dragons were able to suck lava down their armored gullets and spew it back out in a dangerous natural defensive mechanism. Luke Skywalker once fought a lava dragon on Eol Sha as a challenge of Gantoris.
