{{name|caps}} is a liquid made out of melted rock. It is one of the higher valued liquids, but is highly harmful to anything it contacts that lacks proper [[heat]] resistance. Cooking with it grants simple [[heat and fire-based cooking effects]]. A composite liquid containing lava will be {{qud text|&Rmagmatic|notxml}}.

Upon entering a cell of {{plain name}} that is not frozen, the creature's [[temperature]] will increase by 1,000, which is often enough to set the creature on fire. This is only when the cell is entered, and staying on the lava will not alter temperature directly. However, there is a high risk of lava staining and covering the creature and their items repeatedly if they do not leave the cell.

When {{plain name}} is poured on something, their temperature will increase but will not inflict damage. Drinking it or even dilutions of it is even more dangerous, increasing temperature by the same amount but dealing {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|1d100}} damage and {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|1d100}} more for every 10% of the mixture that is lava (100% lava deals  {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|11d100}}, 50% of lava deals {{heart}}{{dice tooltip|6d100}}). The temperature increase is unaffected.

Drinking {{name}} returns the following message:
 
{{qud quote|&RIT BURNS!}}
 
Doing so does not influence [[Thirst|hydration]] in any way.
 
Drinking lava grants the [[On the Rocks]] achievement. In the journal, this is noted as "Unexplainably, you drank lava".

* An easy source of large single-target, single-hit damage, making it potentially useful, e.g., for killing a {{favilink|mercurial}} without it teleporting away. However, this will anger them if they survive.

* Lava can be collected after the initial pouring to be reused for damage, although it will be halved due to mixing with the salt on the ground.

* Because any wall can melt into lava, characters with heat-based mutations, such as [[Flaming Hands]] or [[Pyrokinesis]], can make lava without having to search for it.

* Lava can be poured on someone to remove the [[frozen]] effect. However, this often results in upwards of 100 damage, so it is best used only as a last resort.
