Forgotten beasts are sometimes generated to be composed of steam, and these creatures are far from harmless, though they are exceedingly fragile due to the material properties of steam.Īnother product of water and magma mixing is obsidian.
Steam is visibly harmless in the current version. Magma is the most common source of the temperatures needed to boil water, but some burning items may create steam when submerged, as may some creatures with very high body temperature. Rain falling on a pool of magma may cause steam, as will magma boiling off water that is covering something that is magma safe (like an obsidian stone).
This is distinct from mist, a similar looking product of water falling, or smoke.
