Appearance:
The Lizarian appears as a huge lizard scaled creature. having two arms, two
legs and a long tail. It's head resembles a massive sharp toothed alligator's
head with two horns which protrude from the top. The exceptionally large arms
of a Lizarian end in extremely sharp talon claws " equal to longswords
in sharpness". They have a hardened shell covering their lower torso which
effectively increases this specific regions AC by 3 (AC -3). The tail of the
Lizarian ends in a set of four prongs which is used in combat. Their massive
legs hosts equally impressive spikes and talons which can be used in combat
to shred opponents to pieces e.g.. "raptor claws". They have a spiny
vertebrae that runs from the crest of their neck to the tip of their tail
Combat:
When in combat situations the Lizarian can only attack 3 times/ round, but is
not limited in which attacks they can deploy. The Lizarian can use it's bit
for 2d6 damage, a claw inflicting 1d8 damage, a tail slash which inflicts 1d6
damage, a gore attack from it's horns for 1d4 damage or a breath weapon "equaling
a 5th level cone of cold" causing 5d8 points of damage. Note: the breath
weapon of the Lizarian can only be uses 3 times/ day and only once/ round when
attacking.
Habitat/Society:
Lizarian's live in packs of up to 25 in total. They usually inhabit dark, dismal
swamps and and usually hunt in packs of 4, but they can be encountered in groups
of 3, 2 or even as individualists.
Ecology:
These creatures usually find themselves in living far outlying wildernesses,
far from civilization. They will almost never be found near any populace, and
if ever the Lizarian is ever encountered in normal society. They are usually
caged up in a cell awaiting gladiatorial entertainment.
