It has the head of a snake, but the body is all flame. The creature attacks by slithering around the chamber and launching three fireballs in a spread-like pattern. Only the head is vulnerable. The [[Sacred Bow|Long Bow]] is of great help here, allowing [[Pit]] to keep his distance but also maintain a steady offense. | ||

*Despite being a boss, the prologue in the manual states that Palutena herself entrusted the Fire Serpent to protect one of the Three Sacred Treasures, likely meaning the creature is not necessarily evil nor on Orcos' side, and possibly even affiliated with the goddess of light. The same also may apply to the [[Minotaur]] and [[Skullwing]]. | |||
