Mah lizardman race is finished!

[hider=Lizardmen Race]

[hider=History]
At one point in time, the lizardmen were regarded as an extinct race, said to have been wiped out through unknown causes. Some say disease, while some say they didn't pass the spirals of evolution, becoming obsolete and dying out on their own. Yet the cause of their sudden disappearance is unknown. Rumors had it that they were still around, with people claiming that they happened to encounter them, but was never really confirmed. It wasn't until several hundred years ago when it was discovered that the race of scaly reptilian anthropomorphic beings were found to be not only surviving, but thriving.

The lizardmen race can be traced back thousands of years ago, evolving from an advanced lizard-like species. Initially they were indeed a primitive race, found deep within the jungles below the floating islands. They lived in separate war-based tribes, each one having a signature capability or style that made them unique from their own kind. Most didn't even wield magic, except for the shaman healer in each tribe. Some tribes even made alliances with other tribes to take down other rival tribes or to face a common over-looming threat. There also happened to be a day known as Vishia, where every tribe, rival or friendly, would congregate in a sacred spot and spend the entire day at peace, before going back to their old ways the next day.

However, the lizardmen clans were eventually united by a single leader, not one of war... but one of peace. Known simply as "The Peacemaker", the lizardman hated the sense violence that occurred between the rivaling tribes and sought to bring total peace and harmony through the clans. Initially, his movement was laughed and frowned upon, being seen as an act of defile against their own tradition. However, through examples and non-violent protests, the Peacemaker brought himself a following, having eventually set-forth the first major religion to be presented in the Lizardmen tribes. Soon more and more people joined his cause, many coming from rival tribes. Eventually, Peacemaker united the clans and formed the city of Kreedieth, the first unified city to be created by the lizards. A statue of Peacemaker was erected in the middle of the city, where it still lies to this day.

The founding of Kreedieth started the golden age for the lizardmen race. For hundreds of years they dominated the jungles of Pandora, creating a peaceful society. They even began to advance in their technologies and some began to refine on their magic techniques. Yet before they could achieve taking flight... they vanished. This mysterious phenomenon simply seemed to erase them out of existence. Their city was left abandoned, overtaken by nature once again. No blood was shed and no sickness shown. The lizardmen would not be heard from again for another thousand years or so...

And when they were found, they were still thriving. Their technology was at the same development as the humans of Pandora and they were thriving in a city, in one of the distant islands, known as Jafara City. And what's more, several smaller towns and villages were eventually seen dotted across the other islands. How they were able to hide for so long is a mystery. Not even the inhabitants could explain, or so it's been said. 

Initially, the lizardmen were treated with valiant respects and were good trading partners with the Librarium. But after the War of the Faiths, with Archbishop Xavier taking the crown, most of the lizardmen were enslaved in the more corrupted towns. Their massive bulk and power, along with their dexterity and durability, provided exceptional attributes in slave labor, often when it came to construction projects. Only a handful of their kind, the lizards being wealthy enough or lived in the less-corrupted cities, were kept from this grueling work. Some of the less-wealthier men even joined the Librarium's army as their last resort. Even then, most of the lizards began to resent their once reliable allies...

[hider=Traits]
The lizardmen are as what you can imagine from them. They're big ole' anthropomorphic lizards. However, they don't look much like the animalistic monsters that they had been portrayed to be in Pandorian myth. They look much more human, with being fully able to stand much like a human, with only the added features of their reptilian genes. They are covered in thick armored scales, with [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/83/b8/65/83b8658f117046b93add9f7489568860.jpg]green[/url] and [url=https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/33/eb/db/33ebdb61b12019a3b4b1b71c49dac570.jpg]orange[/url] being the most common colors (black and white being the rarest), with some having horns on their heads or spines running down their back, and of course having a tail. Their underbelly is often a light tan-color, or white for some breeds, yet they still wear their own clothes, with their pants being custom made to have a slot for their tails to go in. They're portrayed as around the same size as humans, if not slightly shorter, though some large lizards can grow up to 6'6" in some cases.
