Lizardfolk Coldblood (Basic Lore)

Lizardfolk Coldblood (CR 8)
Lawful Evil - Medium - Humanoid (Lizardfolk)
Lizardfolk are one of the numerous humanoid races who do not have the spark of civility. They are of crocodilian ancestry, with strong, agile forms and barren hearts. They tend to like warmer, wetter climes, although that is certainly not a hard rule, and there are reputed to be tribes and even nations of Lizardfolk tucked away all over the world, in every clime, wherever they find a way to prosper. The Lizardfolk Coldbloods are a sacred order of assassins committed to the will of the sun gods. Where the Blood Savages are hunters and gatherers, and the Acolytes are leaders and politicians, the Coldbloods serve as a kind of murderous inquisition, seeking out corruption and weakness and excising it without qualm. The Coldbloods are not specifically above the Blood Acolytes, politically, but rather apart from them. They have their own leadership and their own laws which they enforce mercilessly. Given sufficient evidence, no member of the Lizardfolk society is safe from judgement; even the occasional high priest of the Blood Acolytes has been executed for corruption by the Coldbloods at various points in the Lizardfolk histories.
