'''Fire men''' are exceptionally rare [[construct creature]]s made of [[fire]] found in the [[magma sea]]. They stand at the size of a [[human]], feel no emotion or [[No Exert|exertion]], are [[No Pain|immune to pain]] and [[No Stun|cannot be stunned]]. When a fire man is killed, it leaves behind a [[bar]] of [[ash]] which can be made into [[lye]] or [[potash]]. Because they live at the magma sea and are [[building destroyer]]s, one should be cautious when setting up [[magma forge]]s in the event one actually shows up. Despite being made of fire, they can be safely captured and stored in wooden [[cage]]s. Fire men are immortal and only die from violence.

Fire men are only dangerous because of their natural heat and fire attacks (a fireball throw and a fire jet throw, respectively). Their punches and kicks are harmless on their own, and their flame body is extremely fragile, so don't be surprised if a baby punches a fire man to death. However, actually killing a fire man can be quite [[fun]], as the resulting burst of flame tends to set nearby creatures on fire.

Some [[dwarves]] [[Preferences|like]] fire men for their ''licks of fire''.

== In real life ==

Fire man is an archaic English spelling for a fireman or firefighter, a person who puts out fires.  This is converse with DF, where Fire Men have a tendency to spread fire, not quell it.

Make sure you remove any books from your possession when facing a Fire Man in adventure mode. Sighting a book will send the Fire Man into a murderous rage!
