Talk:Lizardfolk

If they are so primitive, how can they hold such a large enclave and city like Surkh? In wich source is it stated that they are primitive? All I read about them seems that many of them live in smaller tribal societies and mor connected to nature, but that's the same with many humans. Historicus 08:54, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * No objections. The adjective seems subjective. They are often described in-universe as primitive, but this seems to be, as you point out, more of a result of cultural tendencies rather than actual inferiority to humans. This is probably a hold over from earlier pre-3e where savage humanoids were considered actual savages, rather than simply "primitive." I think the adjective is still useful for describing lizardfolk cultures, but it is likely unnecessary and unhelpful for the race as a whole. Niirfa-sa 10:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Cold-blooded
Just curious, are the Lizardfolk – or any other reptilian race in Forgotten Realms do that matter — a cold-blooded beings? Juraj103 (talk) 03:53, August 13, 2019 (UTC)


 * I don't know if it's been explained for lizardfolk, I don't recall it coming up when I wrote the article. A search of the wiki shows that kobolds are cold-blooded. — BadCatMan (talk) 05:54, August 13, 2019 (UTC)


 * Awrightie, another thing I meant to ask, what other “ice age” creatures inhabit this world? So far I know of wolly mammoths and smilodons (dire tigers). – Juraj103 (talk) 09:27, August 13, 2019 (UTC)


 * There's also the dire wolf, and I think the branta might count. Otherwise, you could look in Category:Creatures found in cold climates. But the ice age megafauna don't usually get the same attention as dinosaurs and monsters, so they don't have the same presence. — BadCatMan (talk) 09:52, August 13, 2019 (UTC)
