Riding lizard

Riding lizards were large reptiles used as mounts by drow in the Underdark. These horse-sized lizards had wide-splayed legs and were built low to the ground. Their keen sense of balance and ability to walk on walls and ceilings made them the ideal mounts for dark elves on patrol. Most noble houses had at least a handful of the valuable lizards, and the larger houses had entire squadrons of lizard cavalry.
