 # The Lizards
 
 ### A Basic Rundown
-Lizardpeople originally hail from Tizira, in the Rizkalon system, though throughout their four centuries in the stars prior to meeting humanity they have spread over several planets and systems. This outward expansion was hindered by a lack of plasma and bluespace resources in their local sector, stunting their technological advancement and therefore their development (and rollout) of effective FTL engines, with many vessels within the navy not having been fitted with them prior to First Contact. Their technological level remains below that of their human rivals, aggravated by a limited transfer of ideas between the two species.
+Lizardpeople originally hail from Tizira, in the Rizkalon system, though throughout their four centuries in the stars prior to meeting humanity they have spread over several planets and systems. This outward expansion was hindered by a lack of plasma and bluespace resources in their local sector, stunting their technological advancement and therefore their development (and rollout) of effective FTL engines, with many vessels within the navy not having been fitted with them prior to First Contact. Their technological level remains generaly below that of their human rivals, aggravated by a limited transfer of ideas between the two species, and lack of resources. Where capable, however, especially during the wars, lizards have shown great technological ambition and potential, securing some xenophilic backers. As it stands the only technologically competetive fields between the two civilizations are gene-enhancements, jumpstarted by lizard's flexible genetics, and spaceship construction, prompted by insufferable losses recieved due to its neglect.
 
 Tizira is notably more arid than Earth, with small, shallow seas and less arable land. In addition, the planet has a diminished ozone layer, leading to higher-than-average levels of solar radiation reaching the planet's surface. As cold blooded creatures, the lizards thrive in this environment, with major cities being built close to the coastlines and smaller settlements spread across the wide drylands and deserts.
 
 Lizard society emphasises strict militarism and a rigid caste system. The caste system limits social mobility, separating society into distinct bands- however, as with many things in lizard society, enlistment in the military can change this. The military is intertwined deeply into lizard culture- all must serve a tour of mandatory service in the army after coming of age, it is customary for every citizen to be armed (typically with a blade, but into the modern era firearms have become commonplace), and the sight of a soldier on every street corner is not only typical but expected. Advancing in the military heirarchy is one of the few ways a low caste lizard might hope to raise his social standing.
 
+Biologically, lizardfolk are not very dissimiliar to now mostly extinct, earth-born and non-sentient reptiles, based on which they were named by human explorers. Most apparent shared features include cold blood, scales covering the skin, claws, and extruded jaw allowing them to easier dig in into food where upon they pre-emptively digest it more thoroughly. In most natural state, their legs are digitigrade, specialized for running after prey on open fields in the wastes and stabilized by a tail when it comes to walking or standing in place. Their scale colours range through different saturations of green, presumably to stand more clashing with the desert and appear more dangerous. 
+
+However, they are also one of the most mutable species in the galaxy. Human xenologists counted several 'genotypes', often natively refferenced as 'bloodlines'. Even on their home planet one can be met with unquantifiable varieties of horns and body markings, mostly present in noble families, which are entirely superficial beyond aesthetic standpoint. Similiarly, though more commonly off homeworld, there's an emergence of aesthetic spinal protrusions, fins, and unnatural vivid colorations. Most extreme cases of this rapid diversification can be found in lizards integrated with human society, who's whole bone structure of legs re-adjusted in merely a couple of generations to better resemble their plantigrade compatriots and suit life in space.

 As one travels further from the core systems however this culture softens. A century and a half of contact with humanity and a limited projection of power from Tizira has made lizards on the frontier of the empire much more humanlike in their mannerisms. There are many lizards alive today who have never lived within the borders of the empire, and care little for its customs.
 
 ### Fun Factoids:
-* The moon of Tizira was famously bombed by the TerraGov Expeditionary Corps during one of lizardkind's many conflicts with humanity, creating a noticable "scar" across the surface which can be seen from the planet. The Planet Cracker drink is named for this event.
+* The moon of Tizira was famously bombed by the TerraGov Expeditionary Corps during one of lizardkind's many conflicts with humanity, creating a noticable "scar" across the surface which can be seen from the planet. The Planet Cracker drink is named for this event. Lizards, especially ones following sitalesse are very displeased by this, given the moon's cultural significance and portreyal as a warrior god. Imperial nationalists claim it was due to humanity's "unfair" naval supremacy, which is why they began more heavily pushing on their own spaceship construction in following years.
 * The Imperial Lizard Army is famous for their melee skirmishers, who utilise throwing weapons and short-ranged firearms to great effect alongside razor-sharp blades. Despite their embarassing defeat by humanity, they're still well respected within lizard society.
 * The Draconic spoken by lizard crewmembers is a Spacer form of the language, created by decades of isolation from Tizira. Lizards from the core systems speak a distinct form of Draconic, known as "High Draconic" or "The Emperor's Draconic".
 * With the newfound (and uneasy) peace between humans and lizards, some degree of cooperation between the species has blossomed. Tizira lends an expeditionary force to the human-led Anti-Xenomorph Coalition. Much of this cooperation is pushed by the present ruler of Tizira: the young Empress Arael-Daesa I, who has used her limited power to pursue a more pro-human foreign policy than her predecessors in bold opposition to the parliament- much to the chagrin of both the military old guard and a significant portion of her people.
+* Plantigrade lizard are often discriminated in wider lizard society for beign "too human-like".
 * Pronouncing X as "ecks" is badass.
