Lizardfolk PC’s

*plink plink plink*Just in case you want some scaly Player Characters that aren’t official here’s some reasonable, key word reasonable, lizardmen based races you can offer as options.  I wouldn’t have a problem with these being used by my players, no OP or uberness here.  Too many non-official things are OP to a greater or lesser degree, classes, races, weapons, etc.  It’s bad enough when wizards does it, we don’t need to add to the problem. :)
