Here's the OOC for the Lizardfolk RP. I'll post my main character soon, a male lizardfolk named Sarkon. Feel free to play as many characters as you think you can handle. No godmodding, no OP characters, and if you choose to play a lizardfolk, here are some guidelines. Some of them can be bent if you really want them to be, but the norms are:

- Lizardfolk use light clothing, no footwear. Something like loincloths, capes, robes, etc. They can climb and swim quite a bit better than most humans. And while they have claws, they don't have webbed feet.
- Males are larger than females, much like crocodiles, not certain lizards where the reverse is true. Females lack a certain mammilian feature, so they don't need to cover their chests for that. Nothing to see anyway. No bellybuttons either, as they hatch from eggs.
- This takes place in a far more primitive setting than the real world. No lizards on laptops or with cell phones. Or firearms. Or airplanes. Or typing on RP forums in an RP. That last one would be really meta anyway. :)
- You can give them any personality you want, but their mainstream society values strength. Meek, passive, or greedy lizards are looked down on. If you want a more peaceful character who doesn't want to do things like fight, kill, fish, or hunt, you might try a mage or hermit in the jungle, or a merchant. Both groups exist outside of mainstream society. Females can fight too, and often hunt and fish.

Badass, im excited for this and working on a male lizardfolk character. Are we to post character sheets in here?

Yup. Post one in here. I'll have my own up later today.

Ill wait on you to get a good general idea.

If your still taking than I would like to join. Also quick question, can sub species of lizard folk be around like one more built for a swamp than a jungle?

Sure, you can have a subspecies. Just make sure to explain what is different about them.

Cool.

Here's my CS. Sorry for any delays.

Name: Sarkon
Sex: Male
Age: 26 (about the same as in human years)
Height: 6'8
Weight: 300 lbs (this includes his tail, of course)
Skin: Green
Eyes: Light Green
Clothing: White loincloth.
Equipment: Steel halberd and wooden shield. The halberd is made of a rust-resistant alloy, so it doesn't corrode so badly in the humid jungle.

Bio: Born to a huntress and a village guard, Sarkon has so far followed in his father's footsteps. He has some skill as a hunter, but isn't as good with fishing. His greatest strength is in personal combat, and he is a winner of several local tournaments. His green skin bears a black tattoo for every tournament he has won, and in addition, he has won some metal weapons for his contest victories.

I found a suitable picture here, but it won't link to the site very well. He'd be the one on the right, of course: http://www.elfwood.com/u/hcruz/image/3c5d5d10-2476-11e4-a471-a96fbdbdc8a9/her-choice-is-made

Name: Elaser
Gender: Female
Age: also mid-20's
Height: 6'3 feet
Appearance:
Blue skin and dark blue cloak with shorts and a poncho. Grew up in the swamps so has webbed feet
Bio: an explorer, constantly travelling with various groups, scholarly, feisty and full of fun, highly energetic and vibrant with high stamina. Buisness orientated so will do many things for a good deal. Physically strong and quick reflexes.

Cool. Nice image. I guess she's another subspecies or something. It's fine. She might be a bit hot in the jungle, but you can dress her as you wish.

Name: Aldkal
Gender: Male
Age: early thirties
Appearance:

Aldkal is of the average lizard folk height and weight, however this forest green reptile is missing the tip of his tail, and his right pinky claw. A fighter by nature, he is heavily tattoed in his tribal victories, be it sport or raid. He looks down on humans and other creatures with yellow eyes.

Bio:

Born and raised to hunt and fight, he is naturally of an agressive nature, and when a colony of humans tried to evict his small tribe at a younger age, he fought back with the adults. They were massacured by numbers, and as a young one he was taken in by the humans as a curioisity. An older man had adopted him into his home. Aldkal resisted most attempts at civilizing him, however it did not last long as his adopted father died soon and he was sold as a slave to a corrupt merchant who tortured and extorted the young reptilian to do dirty work. Some sat Aldkal killed the man, some say he just ran away, and still some claim he slaughtered the merchents entire family. Nonetheless he escaped, and he grew up angry and hateful towards outsiders and became a symbol of rebellion in some tribes that lived close to expanding human settlements.

Sounds good. I'll post the IC as soon as I can. Anyone else want to post a character? You can post before or after the IC is started.

Tiloc, the Coward

Sex: Male
Age: early fourties
Height: 5'5
Skin: Blue, but depending since his special kind of lizardfolk are able to change their skincolour to their surroundings. This mutation and their little height has the subspecies do to their adaptation to the weeping hills where many great airborne predators hunt for them thus making the ability to hide in the grass and low trees incredibly useful.
Eyes: Green
Clothing: Red, light loin clothing
Equipment: Poisoned darts, a small sharp dagger out of black stone and a blowgun.
Bio: Tiloc was born in the weeping hills as the son of a hermit mother and an unknown father. He was thrown out by his mother as soon as he could live by himself since she never really wanted him to begin with. He lived many years on his own, traveling far and wide without any real idea where to go. Since his kind of lizardfolk was pretty rare and mostly laughed at by the others for their lack in size and physical power he stayed a loner. However he also became inventive and as some would say a coward when it came to fighting because he mostly ran or used poison, stealth and guerrilla tactics.

(Kind of fitting picture)

Well, I guess that would account for the odd eyes in that pic. Chameleon-like and all that.

The IC is now up.

Somebody please post

I was the last to post. It's someone else's turn.
