Lizardfolk
The saurian lizardfolk are thought by some sages to be distant cousins of dragonborn and kobolds. Despite their resemblance to those other scaled folk, however, lizardfolk are their own people and have lived on the worlds of the Material Plane since the worlds’ creation. Gifted by the gods with remarkable physical defenses and a mystical connection to the natural world, lizardfolk can survive with just their wits in situations that would be deadly for other folk. Because of that fact, many lizardfolk myths state that their people were placed by the gods in the Material Plane to guard its natural wonders.
​
Lizardfolk have colorful scales and exhibit a wide array of scale patterns. Their individual facial features are as varied as those of lizards.

Hated Race Expectations
Those that look upon other races with disdain, the Lizardfolk believe they are the pinnacle of all life. They believe that the outside world from their tribal homes are weak and they have no love for most races due to their extreme xenophobic views. Hunters and gatherers, they are large and incredibly volatile when chasing down prey. Speaking of, they consume almost anything they find as edible and have a voracious appetite. Utilitarian in nature, the Lizardfolk are strong, capable, and intelligent despite the dismissal of the larger world of Faerun.
