Minotaur lizard

Minotaur lizards were a rare, gargantuan species of lizard named for the minotaur-like horns atop their heads.

Behavior
Minotaur lizards were known to be very aggressive. Elminster claimed that they were incapable of figuring out how to open doors.

Combat
Minotaur lizards fought with their sharp teeth and long sharp claws, often ambushing their prey.

History
During the 14 century DR, some were known to dwell inside the depths of Undermountain.

Ecology
Minotaur lizards lived largely solitarily lives and were most active during daylight hours. Though creatures often feared their horns, they were not known to use them in combat and thus some believed they were a means by which to attract a mate.

Diets
Like many species of large lizard, minotaur lizards were carnivorous.

Habitats
Minotaur lizards dwelt in the hills and mountains of tropical regions, often near red dragons and copper dragons.

They were known to be found in the Celestial Bureaucracy's plane of Qui, various mountains and hills in the land of Maztica, and on the planet Oerth.
