Talk:Lizardfolk

So, they're more saurian than reptilian. That makes more sense for a sentient race, anyway, since the energy required to run a brain is pretty astronomical, and generally outside the capability of exothermic lifeforms.

Not that magic doesn't have a say, of course. -Slitherrr

Nah, I'm with you - there's a place for bean plating. Besides, other than the steamy bog of the Temporal Authority, most the swamps are in temperate areas with pretty rough winter. Can't have my lizards die off every winter. -gm

Hibernation, on the other hand, would actually make for some very interesting cultural mores, I think. It wouldn't fit here, but maybe a reptilian race on another continent would be a fun forum in which to explore the concept. -Slitherrr

Ooo Ooo Or, your lizards live for about 10 months eggs hatch in the spring and they pass their culture through some strange genetic memory! -Feantari

For some reason, I thought this was a lost race like the naga. Obviously, I was wrong. Were they just lost from the wydmoor swamp, or am I just crazy? --Msallen

Jones has always talked about them as if they weren't lost. Generally, Lizardfolk are relegated to areas that don't have much interest for other races, so I think this is more of an "out of touch" issue than "lost". -Slitherrr

No. The lost race is literally called The Lost for the love of pete. I try to make things simple for you, Matt. Do try and keep up. -gm

So the Naga aren't lost either? ;) --Msallen

THESE BURNS ARE SO SICK THEY NEED TO BE HOSPITALIZED. -Slitherrr

Well, the Naga are EXTINCT. The Lost are just... Lost. You know, somewhere that is not here. -gm

(hint: they're in Detroit) -Slitherrr

The elves seem fairly lost, too, right? --Mattie
