I don't seem to recall any of this. Robilar went from being a historical figure to an iconic marketing image. I cover this aspect of what our industry has become in my next book under the chapter, "Images of Fantasy & Fact".

Immunity to Magic (Ex): A metal destrier is immune to any spell or spell-like ability that allows spell resistance. In addition, certain spells and effects function differently against the creature, as follows. A magical attack that deals electricity damage slows a metal destrier (as the slow spell) for 3 rounds, with no saving throw. A magical attack that deals fire damage breaks any slow effect on the metal destrier and heals 1 point of damage for every 3 points of damage the attack would otherwise deal. If the amount of healing would cause the metal destrier to exceed its full normal hit points, it gains any excess as temporary hit points. A metal destrier gets no saving throw against fire effects.
