    Commentary
          The Phoenix is an elemental fire animal (Given the logic of the late T$R I guess it is called "animental" in AD&D ?). I hope that everybody knows how a Phoenix is supposed to look like so we can skip that part (big&burning bird).
    The Phoenix can create two different types of fire, both by spreading out his wings and thereby creating a wall of fire 30' in length.
    The first one is soothing fire which does no damage but causes the prey to sit on the ground and become totally calm for up to 2 minutes (2d6 rds.)
    The second one is more of the mundane type and burns quite heavily for Step 15 damage.
    When killed the phoenix must immediately make all Recovery Test with its Rise out of the ashes Step to prevent his death. (Just like a death cheat charm)
