Fire Salamander

This overworld mob is a fire salamander based on European mythology.

The fire salamander would be hostile during the day, when it has use of its elemental fire, and passive at night unless attacked. At night, it cannot use fire because it derives this power from the sun.

It could potentially drop magma cream during the day and slimeballs at night.

I would love to see this new mob, and the fire salamander would be the first to be hostile during the day and passive at night!

I've been thinking we could use fire-breathing salamanders for a while! They might seem like a nether mob at first glance, but I think they'd be perfect to fill the void left by crocodiles in swamps! As a fantasy creature they could be hostile without encouraging animal cruelty, while still adding the "danger lurking just of sight" vibe.
