A Thermostalk is a huge plant that lives in freezing cold areas covered in snow and ice. They can survive in these harsh conditions by having bodys constantly alight with a deep-amber fire. It is about 30 ft. tall and has 2 long yellow whip-like appendages about 15 ft. long that are white-hot at the end wreathed in flames. They are not rooted to the spot and can move very slowly, it also has a midicum amount of intelligence (on an instinctive basis only) and uses psionic powers. Every now and then an angered Thermostalk can roar it's relitively passive flames into roaring blue fire. It's long body ends with a deep mustard yellow bloom surrounded with bent, curved petals.

COMBAT 
Flaming Touch (Ex): When a Thermostalk hit's with its lash attack, the target must make a Reflex save (DC 15) or suffer a further 1d4+1 points of fire damage.
Thermo-Aura (Ex): All those within 5ft. of a Thermostalk must make a fortitude save or take 1d4 points of subdual damage.
Self-Ignition (Ex): Once a day, a Thermostalk can ignite his already warm body to suicidal tempretures. It's flaming touch cuases 1d10+2 points of fire damage and the effects of its fire aura now affect all those within 15 ft.
Psionics (Sp): At will- Detonation, Firefall and Whitefire. These powers are as mannifested as by a 20th leval psion.
