Comprehensive Lava rules?

Then I died. No save.

The only question I have is how fast I die. Do I have time to take an action or two? Say, hold the ring up over my head or something like that?

Y'know, there is one glaring editorial gaffe. There's all these celebrity endorsements, and then sticking out like a sore thumb there's this endorsement of some nobody named Hobo.

I'm very confused. There's nothing imagery about the rules. They're right there. I playtested them. I'm right there on the playtest credits.
