Return of the Reptilians

This is a guide to lizard folk around the world. Some have exotic abilities.
My generic lizard men not as amphibious as standard dnd ones.
Might do a reptilian warzone post. Done reptilian mutations.
As my new setting im working on has reptilian remnants everywhere I thought this would be handy but it does overlap with my beastmen project.

Notes

Marine Iguana Folk
Green-blue warty hide with dorsal spines, some with red colour or with algae on skinHold breath for up to an hour, swim at normal movementThis ancient tribe live in basalt islands covered in ancient ruins they may have once built as slaves long ago. They are naive about affairs and people off shore but slavers have been kidnapping them to use as pearl divers.  Some islands are more wary. Some dwell in underwater caves often with pre human ruins in them. They do eat meat and shellfish but mostly subsist on marine algae, seaweed and cactai. Many think them hideous and monsterous but they are one of the friendlier breeds who can be convinced to help with underwater exploration or investigating ruins. They prefer tridents, nets and obsidian bladed daggers and war clubs but these are mostly stored in secret caves or used for fishing.


Thorny Devil Folk
Tan, some black and yellow or umber
Covered in thorny warty spikes, survive with 10% water of similar size creatures
This desert race look devilish but are mostly peaceful desert dwellers who make sand art and desert topographic art which they use as maps to locate tasty giant ants and water. Well concealed in desert areas especially rocky outcrops. Will eat other giant insects and people if given a chance as they waste very little and carry few tools. Most use throwing sticks, clubs, small wooden shields, boomerangs, javelins, darts and atlatl (woomeras, also a club, digging tool and bowl). They weep tears of blood if sad or wounded.

Gila Folk
Red and black or yellow and black mottled patterns
Large +1-2HD, with a venomous bite save or 2d4 necrotic damage over an hourLarge feared monsters dreaded by neighboring peoples but actually they are peaceful and exploited. Slavers enjoy their reputation and size as harem guards, pit fighters and gladiators. Some people recognise them as peaceful and respect their preference to be left alone. They often use spears, shields, huge war clubs and mauls. Some lick their weapon edges before combat.

Frill neck Folk
Tan, yellow or grey, some turn red or pink when angry
When enraged a large skin frill becomes erect making them look huge
Live in forests and deserts and mountain, they are quick runners on all fours 15" or two legs 12" and skilled at hiding. When defensive their frills erect, some change colour and they hold their mouths open and hiss. Mostly live in small families and use simple technology. 

Chameleon Folk
Often green but can change colour to hide, communicate or depending on mood
Independant moving eyes (being surprise 1in6) Stealth (Surprise on 1-4in6)
Sneaky forest and jungle hunting tribes some are quite civilized and also use magic with illusions being favorite spells. All types enjoy bows and blowpipes and prefer skirmish tactics to harrass enemies. Up close they use carved wooden war clubs for melee or throwing. Some use bolos also or javelins with atlatl.

Ghekko 
Various colour schemes depending of environment, soft skin, some partly transperant
Large padded toes  to cling to any service (Surprise 1-3in6), large eyes (surprised on 1in6)
Peaceful insect hunters often live in caves, cliffs and forests. AC one point worse than most lizard folk. Very nocturnal and hunt by night. Some more civilized ones enjoy wizardry also but thieves are quite common among them. Javelins, nets, clubs and atlatl most common weapons but some use blowpipes also. 

Goanna
Often coloured for camoflage in forest or desert,Expert trackers using large tounges, Diseased bites save or half STR and Mov for a d3 days
Often quite large +1HD. Mostly injure victims with bite then follow them by tracking when victim grows weaker then tear prey apart. Clubs, javelins and throwing sticks main weapons but also blowpipes poisoned with their spittle for smaller ones.

Turtle
Blue green scales some with algae for hair or shellfish growing on plastron
Plastron shell AC15, Swim at foot speed, hold breath 40 minutes 
Turtle folk can often be hundreds of years old, are very wise and patient. They can be a bit crabby and crotchety and absent minded when old. Some breeds are more maine oriented but tortoise folk are less aquatic often living in deserts and anywhere far from humans. Both types often live on islands building stone citadels where they keep their ancient knowledge. They enjoy singing but most other races don't appreciate it. Often use maces and spiked clubs.

Cobra
Mostly brown often with yellow or green diamond markings
Venomous bite, some breeds can spit blinding venom instead
Cobra men are a tropical serpent man race notorious for cults and their ancient jungle ruins. They are despicable vile evil creatures who unlike other breeds crave human slaves, cultists and hybrids. Like to use swords, daggers, bows and javelins.

Python
Varied colours from region to region some bright and colourful others are chamoflaged
Non venomous, large +1 HD, very strong 17, surprise on 1-3 
Python men are muscled silent killers who served as the muscle of the serpent empire of old. Less malicious than their kin. Feared as wrestlers who will eat humanoids their own size and sleep it off for a week. Use maces, flails and spiked clubs and javelins and bolos.

Viper (Horned Snakemen)
Various colours blending in with local climate with horn like thermal receptors
Venomous bite, thermal heat sensing vision Surprised only on a 1
Horned viper men were great wizards an priests and less sadistic than their kin. While they had human cults and subjects they preferred to be loved than feared and kept their subjects dependent on them. They acted as healers and prophets and providers of underworld wisdom and fertility. Like to use swords, daggers, bows and javelins.

Crocodile
Green or black some are more blue tinged 
2d4 bite, 17 STR, +1HD and AC13 Swim foot speed and hold breath 40 minutes in water
Huge lumbering creatures were greatly feared and used as elite guards and shock troops by ther reptilian empires of old. They would gobble up their enemies after battle and sleep for a week. They are not very bright or malicious just hungry and they serve other reptiles as troops because it always leads to a meal. Some worshiped them partly out of fear but also for fertility and their aquatic links. Prefer two handed weapons like mauls or long spears or axes.

Raptor
Various colour schemes depending on environment, some feathered

d100 Draconic Loot

When dragons become commonplace during a swarm or plague or planned invasion, draconic items become more commonplace and mostly cheaper. Except anti dragon relics and items they become more expensive. This is a list of the kind of crap in magic shops during such a event. Feel free to increase costs when dragons not under every rock or behind every cloud. Price varies from size and breed also. Prices here for shop price, they only pay about a third at best for dragon giblets and gore. Many Items are fit to be enchanted as if mithril or adamantine or meteoric steel. You might have a shop specializing in dragon gimmick stuff too. Some of these goods are actually from dragon cultists. Of course that guy has a dragon cult robe he bought it as a curio from the dragon shop, honest.

Will do draconic mutations, spells and missions yet as Im still feeling out my warzone tables concept more.

d100 Knights of Exile Island

I loved the Dragon Magazine #72 version of the cavalier. It got me playing knights for a few years. Pendragon too hard to beat. I love classic knightly fiction. I enjoyed the microprose darkland robber knights and reading about regional robber knight politics of ye olde england. And I like Moon Knight - probably the comic I have collected the longest and at a high point at the moment way beyond the shitty serial killer era. This is for Courtney Campbell who has encouraged probably about 10% more out put from me and Patrick Stewart who deserves functional knight stuff from me after i sent him octopus doodles and kids books instead of the holy grail he wanted. And for the heraldry requests i have received. Also to my mum who was into King Arthur and LOTR which was probably a good start in life. I am currently with food and accommodation, work, art at a music festival gig and lots of brain damaging stress monkeys out of my life. My setting has needed this for a long time so here goes....

Exile Island is a crappy place between all the great empires and crawling with remnants of great evil empires from the pre flood era. There are so many dungeons here that farmers are always wary of digging up a cursed relic, a lost city or some horrible monster when all they want is turnips. The north is still wild and barbaric but the south has the barrony and a Colony of the Great Empire on the south continent. Both these lands produce knights but others come from far off lands to quest and kill monsters that are hard to find in less horrible lands.

A knight is basically a military aristocrat cavalryman who owes fealty to a superior lord all the way up to a king or emperor. Some which come to the Island are fairly exotic. Some weird non human knights also come. Undead knights occasionally roam the land too from when necromancers ruled man thousands of years ago.
