Lizardfolk             possess an alien and inscrutable mindset, their desires              and thoughts driven by a different set of basic                 principles than those of warm-blooded creatures.

Lizardfolk use active verbs to                                                   describe the world. A lizardfolk                                                    in cold weather might say, "This                                                      wind brings cold" rather than                                                         "I feel cold." lizardfolk tend to                                                               define things in terms of                                                                   actions, rather than                                                                    effects. Despite their                                                                      alien outlook, some                                                                      lizardfolk make an                                                                       effort to understand                                                                          and, in their own                                                                          manner, befriend                                                                          other folk. Such                                                                            lizardfolk make                                                                            faithful and skilled                                                                             allies.
