===Combat===
Unlike other mephits, steam mephits rush into combat eagerly, driven by an oversized ego.

'''[[SRD:Breath Weapon|Breath Weapon]] ([[SRD:Su|Su]]):''' 10-foot cone of steam, damage 1d4 fire, [[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] [[SRD:DC|DC]] 12 half. Living creatures that fail their saves are tormented by burned skin and seared eyes unless they have immunity to fire or are otherwise protected. This effect imposes a –4 penalty to [[SRD:AC|AC]] and a –2 penalty on [[SRD:Attack Roll|attack rolls]] for 3 rounds. The save [[SRD:DC|DC]] is [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]]-based and includes a +1 racial bonus.

'''[[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|Spell-Like Abilities]]:''' Once per hour a steam mephit can surround itself with a plume of vapor, duplicating the effect of a ''[[SRD:Blur|blur]]'' spell ([[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] 3rd). Once per day it can create a rainstorm of boiling water that affects a 20-foot-square area. Living creatures caught in the storm take 2d6 points of fire damage ([[SRD:Saving Throw|Reflex]] [[SRD:DC|DC]] 14 half; [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] 6th). This ability is the equivalent of a 2nd-level spell. The save [[SRD:DC|DCs]] are [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based.

'''Summon Mephit ([[Sp]]):''' Once per day, a mephit can attempt to summon another mephit of the same variety, much as though casting a summon monster spell, but with only a 25% chance of success. Roll d%: On a failure, no creature answers the summons that day. A mephit that has just been summoned cannot use its own summon ability for 1 hour. This ability is the equivalent of a 2nd-level spell.

'''[[SRD:Fast Healing (Special Ability)|Fast Healing]] ([[SRD:Ex|Ex]]):''' A steam mephit heals only if it is touching boiling water or is in a hot, humid area.
