Basically, I found a demon that breathes fire and has a piercing fire attack. I thought about adding the "fire breath" ability to it, like a dragon, so that it deals damage through the target, but I realized that this skill is just a placeholder for description purposes. I thought maybe the dragon model has a specific attack programmed in, but I didn't find anything either. How can I make the damage piercing?

I tried to find it in the human champion's data, but it was also empty. I noticed that there are special files in the folder that contain the skill names, and I suspect that something needs to be done with them, but unfortunately, I don't know what.

I never really thought about this before. But I became interested. A quick search through the game folder revealed the following interesting things.
First, I looked at the fire dragon of the Dwarves; its pattern references the dragon pattern from The Dungeon.

At the same time, the Rampart's green dragons have their own pattern...
I think you can just copy the pattern from the green dragons to the creature you're configuring, and it should work.

Or, you can insert a pattern link to the dragon pattern from The Dungeon into the line; this should also work (considering that this is exactly how it's done for the Fire Dragons, where it works).

Is the demon large? The dragon patterns are designed for a large creature; a small one needs its own pattern.

I once had an idea (and still do, but I haven't gotten around to it yet due to a lack of suitable models) about pikemen that would pierce through enemies (attacking two squares away, like dragons). They are single-cell units, and I understand that this will affect me as well. Do you have any ideas on how to properly create such a pattern?

I've already done it for the Ifrit from NCF; I used the fire hound's attack pattern as a base and removed the extra attack squares.

Could you attach the .xdb file? I would be grateful.

The demon was large, so dragon's breath was a good fit.
