Unlike other summons, the Fire Wyrm will not follow the player. When killed or when its timer expires, it explodes, dealing some damage. It is resistant to fire and uses a 'Fire Bite' attack.
The Fire Wyrm itself is similar in appearance and behavior to an Ice Wraith. If multiple enemies are killed with the shout, multiple Fire Wyrms will appear. All available words of the shout must be used for a Fire Wyrm to appear. Dragonborn Flame DB ĭragonborn adds the Dragonborn Flame ability which summons a Fire Wyrm for 60 seconds when an enemy is killed with the Fire Breath shout. Meditating on the word Yol with Paarthurnax grants the player The Fire Within, an ability which increases the damage from this shout by 25%.
