These creatures thrive in packs in swamps or other aquatic regions where freshwater is available. They are excellent hunters, many talented shamans, and none are shy from a fight. All these traits combined, along with a Lizardman's inborn sense for adventurers, make them excellent picks for adventures. It is to the point that there are rumors that the modern Adventurers' Union's founder was a Lizardman.
Some theories say that Lizardmen are descendants of the ancient dragons, but evidence regarding these is lacking. Most noticeable is that it is yet to be proven whether a Lizardman could evolve into a dragon-related species, a feat a few other reptile-type beings have been able to do.
Appearance:
Lizardmen look like humanoid lizards standing on two legs, with scales covering their whole body, and a strong tail.
Lizardmen also have a peculiar trait in that their scales will change color based on what attributes they are specializing in. Obtaining liquid-category attributes will turn the scales of the Lizardman blueish, while landscape-categories will turn the scales yellowish, just to name a few examples. The Lizardman's standard evolution of attuning to one attribute may have something to do with this trait, but no definitive proof has been obtained yet.
Abilities:
Danger rank: E+
Rarity rank: E+
Lizardmen have all the typical strengths found in humanoids, such as a talent for weaponry, crafting, and teamwork. Compared to other species, Lizardmen are also armed with tough scales, naturally strong bodies, and even thermal vision due to their Trait. They even have an affinity for certain types of magic, notably Shamanism, making them perfect all-rounders who can go on any path and master them to high degrees.
