Information Thread for Potential New Lizardman Units

The Lizardmen, sometimes known as the Cold Ones, or even the Children of the Gods, are an ancient, savage race of cold-blooded reptiles that were at one time the first and oldest civilization within the Warhammer World. Long before the rise of Men, Elf or Dwarf, the Empire of the Lizardmen ruled supreme. Alien, enigmatic, and without mercy, the Lizardmen were there when it all began and will stop at nothing to restore order to this chaotic world. Such is what they were made to do, for they are the ancient servants of the Old Ones, the one true protectors of this very World.

Hermit Lords of Axlotl = "Each of the pyramid-temples of the ruined city of Axlotl is topped with an impossibly tall pillar made of the hardest obsinite. Atop each pillar sits a single Stann Mage-Priest, deep in meditation, his attentions fixed upon a distant star. These Stann never interact with each other or with any other Lizardmen, and gain sustenance through entirely magical means. They are protected from the raging jungle storms by a sphere of energy which glows all the brighter as the wind and rain lashes against it. Exactly what the Hermit-Lords await or seek in the distant stars is a mystery not even known to their fellows."

Albino Spawning = Albino Saurus are destined to be champions.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Gor-Rok

Alligator Warriors = The order of Alligator Warriors wears armour made from tough alligator skin. Can wield; Additional Hand Weapons, Great Weapons, and Shields
https://i.imgur.com/tivVuIJ.png 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Animal Handlers = Can bring Cold One Warhounds, Giant Scorpions, Giant Spiders or Sabertooth Tigers to the battlefield
https://i.imgur.com/AHUjH2e.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Kroq Saurus = Kroq is one such unique Saurus. He is distinguished by his crocodilian head with his huge jaws boasting many sharp teeth.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Kroq

Saurus Braves = Saurus have thick, horny scaly hides which protect them as natural armour. They make excellent warriors but they are not much good at anything else.
http://www.lustria-online.com/thread...-issues.15973/ Town Cryer Issue 11

Saurus Totem Warriors = When a Saurus warriors has killed twenty foes he is accepted into one of the three warrior totems; Eagle, Jaguar or Alligator.
http://www.lustria-online.com/thread...-issues.15973/ Town Cryer Issue 11

Skink Braves = Many skinks dwell in the deepest jungles and trackless swamps of Lustria. These braves are fast, agile and intelligent. Although they lack the brute force and aggression of the Saurus, they are good at shooting volleys of arrows or javelins.
http://www.lustria-online.com/thread...-issues.15973/ Town Cryer Issue 11

Skink Cohort = Skinks take up weapons during their many patrols as well as to join the fighting during times of war. As troops, they range between reckless audacity and sudden panic. Their skittish nature makes them much more prone to fleeing than the stoic Saurus. Javelins and Shields. Variants include; Poisoned Attacks, Short Bows.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Skinks

Skink Great Crests = Great Crests, as they are known, are the leaders of many raiding parties and have become skilled at scouting, tracking, ambushing and skirmishing. Their skin is more varied in colour than normal skinks.
http://www.lustria-online.com/thread...-issues.15973/ Town Cryer Issue 11

Skink Skirmishers = Much the same as a Skink Cohort, same weapon options too.
https://i.imgur.com/FS6wrn8.png Warhammer Supplement: Lustria
https://i.imgur.com/qsPs4J1.png White Dwarf 256

”Stealthy Aquatic Skink” = Potentially a reference to an obscure spawning of skink, possibly a poorly phrased reference to their amphibious nature
https://i.imgur.com/zt0fJG9.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

Temple Guard = Can use shields
https://i.imgur.com/WQOoZqF.png White Dwarf 261
https://i.imgur.com/3A54rth.png White Dwarf 350

Temple Stone Guard = This is a statue of a Lizardman Saurus, created to protect the temple.
http://www.lustria-online.com/thread...-issues.15973/ Town Cryer Issue 13

The Guardians = ”They arrived with the gods, and with the gods do dwell their spirits. Their wrath is beyond imagining. Any who pass with evil intent will be struck down from afar.” Unsure what they could be in Tlaxtlan. Saurus, Skink, and Kroxigors were all created from the planet and were not brought to it. Slann did arrive with the Old Ones.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

The Revered Guardian = Wherever a Slann Mage-Priest goes, his Temple Guard will follow him. If the Slann wishes to ascend a towering pyramid or retire to the solitude of a Star Chamber, his guardians will dutifully follow. The most powerful of their number, the Revered Guardian, takes the foremost position.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Temple_Guard

Troglodytes = "Troglodytes are large relatives of Lizardmen and live among them deep below the world's mountains. They use them as guards, warriors and slave labourers, allowing them to feed upon the corpses of the slain to sate their tremendous hunger. They have only a rudimentary culture." Potentially early version of Kroxigor, but there are differences.

https://i.imgur.com/AHUjH2e.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Venom Tribes = ”They are distinguished by their slightly smaller size and vivid red and black patterning of their skin.” Originally these were “Slann” but would work just fine as skink, as they look similar and are described similarly. Can also wield; Darts, Shields and Light Armour
https://i.imgur.com/tadNITf.png 3rd Ed. Armies Book

Warriors = Lizardmen warriors. Can also wield; Spears, Great Weapons, Shields

Arcanodon = The Engine of the Gods is borne on the back of a mighty arcanodon, a rare beast of the deep jungles of Lustria. The energies unleashed by the Engine are terrifying to behold, as is the charge of the beast that carries it
https://i.imgur.com/BgpM5GU.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria
https://i.imgur.com/L1YCgUM.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

Carnivorous Snappers = ”Carnivorous Snappers are the last remnants of a race of great lizards from the days when reptiles ruled the Known World. They are fast-moving and ferocious, but extremely stupid and are sometimes used as hunting beasts by Lizardmen, although it is thought that they once walked the surface. The Carnivorous Snapper is a bipedal reptile, about 10 feet long from nose to tail and standing about 5 feet high, although - in combat - it can rear to a height of 7 feet. Most of its weight is distributed around its hind legs and it has a heavy tail, which is uses to balance itself while running. Its forelimbs are small and almost useless. Colour varies from dark green to dark brown.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...vorous_Snapper

Cold One Warhounds = "Larger Cold Ones fulfil the roles of horses, beasts of burden and cattle, whilst smaller species serve as hunting animals and domestic pets. The Cold One Warhound is the largest and most fiercesome of this lesser breed. It is an ugly, alligator-like animal with coarse, scaly skin and menacing pointed teeth. Warhounds are aggressive pack creatures."

Crested Stegadon = Unit mentioned in Warmaster magazine.
https://www.scribd.com/doc/239423204...azine-Issue-12

Dread Saurian = Dread Saurian Of all the reptillian nightmares that inhabit the jungle-shrouded continent of Lustria, Dread Saurians are one of the most feared; an echo of ancient days when huge beasts such as they did battle with the forefathers of dragons for supremacy. Immense creatures, larger than the towering Carnosaur, Dread Saurians are few in number and sacred to the Lizardmen, and the fury of each that prowls the fetid jungles is moderated only by the arcane power of the ceremonial armour that bedecks them.
https://www.forgeworld.co.uk/en-GB/Dread-Saurian

Horned Ones = A type of Cold One mount.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Cold_Ones

Megasaur = A megasaur found in Lustria. Mentioned in a warhammer rulebook, 7th edition I believe.
https://i.imgur.com/RkWwpzZ.png

Razordon = Barbed Razordons are covered with a profusion of great spines — hardened spikes made of bone that project menacingly out of their bodies. As a defensive protection, this razor-sharp body armour serves to deter all but the most determined of creatures.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Razordon

Troglodon = Lone cave-dwellers, Troglodons haunt subterranean grottos, emerging only to feed. These creatures are virtually blind, but hunt using senses other than sight. Swaying sinuously, the Troglodon uses its quill-like whiskers to track motion, while its forked tongue tastes the air.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Troglodon

“War Machines”

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

”Itza’s armies are second-to-none, for they guard the First City, the sacred ground upon which the Old Ones themselves once walked, and beneath which in buried vaults are housed the most powerful of the Old One’s creations, devices so potentially devastating that not even the Slann Mage-Priests dwell upon their nature long”
https://i.imgur.com/2K968B6.png White Dwarf 306

Arcane Machines of Itzl = It is said that the pyramid contains the most powerful and arcane machineries of destruction, and that the first slann mage-priests unleashed these in a cataclysmic tempest of mystical power that reduced the rampaging hordes of daemons to ashes
https://i.imgur.com/4xg28Ok.png White Dwarf 306

Arca of Huatl = ”Each time Luthor’s zombies assaulted the portal, the witchfires in their eyes dimmed and extinguished as the magic that animated them was drained away by the glyphs” A potential Old One device based on the story of Luthor Harkon
https://i.imgur.com/H1Iarv2.png White Dwarf 306

Ark of Sotek = Carried into battle by a Bastiladon, this device spawns thousands of jungle swarms to overwhelm the enemy.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Bastiladon

Engine of the Gods = The Engine of the Gods is born upon the back of a mighty arcanodon, a rare beast of the deep jungles of Lustria. The energies unleashed by the Engine are terrifying to behold, as is the charge of the beast that bears it. The combination of both effects is often more than the enemy can withstand.

https://i.imgur.com/BgpM5GU.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria
https://i.imgur.com/L1YCgUM.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

Sphinxes = “The great avenue that leads to the First City is lined for many miles with great statues of mighty lizards, hewed millennia past from single stones… These unmoving statues have a nightmarish aspect, and some have sworn the monolithic heads have slowly moved to follow their passing” Though we don’t know if they’re just statues or not, we do know that there is some evidence of automatons among the Lizardmen, so I’m noting this down as a possible unit
https://i.imgur.com/XHBKmSv.png White Dwarf 306
https://i.imgur.com/4xg28Ok.png White Dwarf 306

Star Stela of Quetli = To what use the Dark Elves intended to put the sacred artefact was beyond the Slann, but they could not allow the Druchii sorceresses to harness its power, nor to sully its purity with their dark magicks.

Regiments of Renown

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Cohort of the Black Club = Since the days when the saurus were first created, the Cohort of the Black Club had existed. They bore the same black obsinite weapons of their predecessors - spiked stone clubs, often inlaid with bands of gold. At the head of the cohort could be found the same two-headed snake totem - a standard that had seen lizardmen victories upon every continent of the world.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...the_Black_Club

Cohort of the Copper Sun = Out of those sacred waters strode a new cohort of saurus. They were marked by crests of orange-tipped scales that shimmered beneath the noonday sun. As battle neared, it would soon be time to see what properties these new warriors would manifest – what gifts the wisdom of the Old Ones had bestowed upon them.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...the_Copper_Sun

Eye of the Canopy = The chameleon skinks known as the Eye of the Canopy were not followers of Sotek. They joined the Red Host as Tehenhauin led his cohorts towards Itza, appearing out of the undergrowth mysteriously. Although they did not speak, nor tell of their origins, it was deemed the Eyes of the Canopy had travelled from far away. The glowing orange poison-frogs they carried secreted the deadliest venom, and were not native to any of the nearby swamps.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi..._in_the_Canopy

Fire Lizards = Skink priests claimed they could see the serpent shape of the almighty Sotek within the fiery blasts emitted by these salamanders. Whether or not this was true, it was undeniable that the reptilian beasts became enraged in the presence of the hated ratspawn. Even the charred and ripped remains drew the beasts’ ire, for when all living targets were destroyed, the salamanders continued to maul the shrivelled and blackened corpses.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Fire_Lizards

Honour Guard of Hexoatl = It was only fitting for the most ancient of all living slann mage-priests to be guarded by the eldest spawnings of temple guard. Dark scaled with light blue crests, the richly bedecked Honour Guard of Hexoatl were always the most stalwart of their tenacious kind.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...ard_of_Hexoatl

Karnac’s Raiders = The lore is… so so so so bad. But still, it’s a named Lizardman unit who fought Dwarves. It could be updated to serve as a regiment of renown. Apparently they use sword, shield and longbow. Page 39.
https://www.scribd.com/document/1421...on-Compilation
http://www.sodemons.com/rhror/1rr11karnacs/index.htm

King Froggo’s Berserkers = A skink called Froggo that was part of a village that worshipped Lost Erik when he came to an island off the coast of Lustria, he and his village were deceived by Grunsonn’s Marauders resident norse reaver Keanu, who pretended to be Lost Erik. King Froggo drove them away from the island, but not until after the skinks had been taught to “berserk”. Now they hunt down Grunsonn’s Marauders, and look for gold.
Tales of the Old World Short Story: Paradise Lost

Living Bastions = The twin bastiladons known as the Living Bastions served their crew with an obedience rarely seen in the jungle reptiles. What's more, they showed outright reverence for the great Tehenhauin, lowering their heads in his presence. Upon the armoured back of each was an ark of Sotek, its ancient weathered stone banded by stripes of precious gold.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Living_Bastions

Mist Runners = The skink skirmishers of the Mist Runners had strange markings - pale grey patches upon their blue scales - that allowed them to blend in with the fog and brackish water that surrounded Xlanhuapec. The warriors of the Mist Runners had rubbed their eyes so long with the pale blue lotus that their eyes themselves had taken on that opalescent hue. Yet they could see through the mists, allowing them to approach foes unawares.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Mist_Runners

Red Shields = They were a sacred spawning of Sotek, fated to join the infamous Red Host beneath Tehenhauin. During their journey, they found and slew the most enormous Fangadon, fashioning red shields from its mighty hide. Led by the Chieftain Hui-ixxen, the Red Shields were notoriously fierce, savagely beheading all ratspawn they encountered.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Red_Shields

Shrouded Cohort = The skinks and kroxigor of the Shrouded Cohort bore similar markings to each other. The formation was equally adept at launching ambush attacks into a foes' flanks or rear as they were at forming up in deep ranks and taking their place in the lizardmen battle line.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Shrouded_Cohort

Sky Cohort (Terradon Riders) = They were led by Tiktaq’to, Hexoatl’s Master of Skies. For his steed, and those of his formation, Tiktaq'to chose terradons from the Blacksun Cliffs. Those lime green beasts were known to be especially vicious and were trained to carry heavy weights which they would always drop perfectly on target.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Sky_Cohort

Sky Cohort (Ripperdactyl’s) = Those lime green beasts were known to be especially vicious and were trained to carry heavy weights which they would always drop perfectly on target.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Sky_Cohort

The Fireheart Lizards = A named Salamander hunting pack.
https://i.imgur.com/ieDUuYk.png White Dwarf 407
https://i.imgur.com/oaK5UnX.png White Dwarf 407

The Totem of Stiqinsekt = "It was clear that it was part of the Old Ones' world plan that the Totem of Stiqinsekt should remain within the city of Pteli-Sevaaliz. The poor, misguided Skrin believed it was time to lead a crusade against the Realm of the Dead to the south, and required the Totem for its potent powers of protection against necromantic magic."
https://i.imgur.com/nP4LPDE.png White Dwarf 245

Tichi-Huichi's Raiders = They are a famous band of Dogs of War mercenaries that hail from the distant jungle-continent of Lustria. This mercenary band consist entirely of Skink warriors riding on-top of Cold Ones, known famously for their swiftness and speed during the heat of battle. Lead by the eldest of their host, Tichi-Huichi, was the last inhabitant of the city of Enxilada until the day came when he became the caregiver of a whole spawning of Lizardmen offspring.

https://i.imgur.com/dz2hM7K.png White Dwarf 305

Wind That Hungers = A squadron of ripperdactyls, they earned their name when the Red Host witnessed the unridden beasts drop from the skies and rip apart a skaven patrol. Taking this as a gift of divine vengeance from Sotek, the Red Host named the beasts the Wind That Hungers.
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wi...d_That_Hungers

Yellow-Crested Cohort = The skinks and kroxigor of the Yellow-Crested Cohorts were from the Aureate Monument of the Rising Sun. Located in the deep jungles of the Isthmus of Pahuax, the monument had been destroyed by the invading skaven. Marked by brilliant yellow faces and crests, the cohort bore a burning hatred towards plague monks.

Special and Named Characters

Here is contained a full list of every possible Legendary Lord or Legendary Hero that I could find for the Lizardmen. I have split them into different categories for whether they suit being Lords or Heroes, so it is easier to know which they are best suited to being added to, if someone wished to add them to the game. Without further ado, here we go.

Gor-Rok, the Great White Lizard = "It is said that amongst the Lizardmen, those spawned with pure white crests, scales or skin are especially blessed of the Old Ones, and destined to perform great deeds in the service of the Gods. Gor-Rok is amongst this most rare of spawnings, his albino skin marking him out as a future champion the moment he emerged, alone, from the spawning caverns beneath Itza. Gor-Rok is a massive scar-riddled Saurus and he has fought in countless battles throughout the centuries."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Lord Kroak = "It was Kroak amongst all the Slann, the most powerful race of wizards the entire world has ever known, who had the greatest aptitude for magic. It is said that the mysterious Old One Tepok taught Kroak how to draw upon the Winds of Magic, and that the serene Potec how to unravel those same threads. It is even written that it was Kroak and his peers who taught the ancestors of the High Elves the magic they wield to this day, in the golden age of Ulthuan before the Elves wrote down their histories."
https://i.imgur.com/nzO0Dp9.png White Dwarf 306
https://i.imgur.com/EMhRET4.png White Dwarf 306

Lord Tepec-Inzi = Marshalling the host of Itza, he travelled northwest, to the northernmost temple-city of Hexotl. The chronicles state that the journey was accomplished in an impossible time, suggesting the mage-priest impelled his army to travel faster than any mortal could hope, or that he employed some manner of grand spell in order to cover the 1,500 miles between the two. He focuses on the Lores of Fire and of Death

Lord Xlotc = Xlotc wove a spell that would stretch Harkons desire for mystical artefacts to the extent of his sanity, causing the Vampire Lord to lose all grip on reality as his search consumed him. He focuses on the Lores of Light and Life
https://i.imgur.com/nzO0Dp9.png White Dwarf 306

Lord Xlotec = ”Xlotc wove a spell that would stretch Harkon's desire for mystical artefacts to the extent of his sanity, causing the Vampire Lord to lose all grip on reality as his search consumed him. At length, Lord Xlotc drew Harkon and his horde of Undead pirates towards the ruined city of Oyxl, having seeded the notion within his fragmented mind that its temples and vaults overran with treasures. Harkon and his armies never reached their goal however, as Xlotc's own cohorts intercepted him several hundred miles to the northeast of the city, and at the appointed hour launched a devastating attack that decimated the Undead hordes, and put paid to the Vampire Lord's plans for many centuries to come.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Xlotec

Mage-Priest Lord Arexibo = "The Sentinels of Xeti take the form of row upon row of monoliths, each dozens of yards high and covered in intricately graven patterns and shimmering green inlays. It is said that the Sentinels were erected at the order of the Mage-Priest Lord Arexibo of Itza soon after the Great Catastrophe. Their purpose is to listen for messages from the Old Ones, though to date none have been heard."

Chuptzl Qo = "Xinthua says he does not have a rivalry with fellow Slann Chuptzl Qo, being completely unmoved by even a shred of competitive spirit. Competitive spirit, after all, was something that animals felt."
https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Xinthua_Tzeqal

Koelyelotyl = ”Major battles have erupted between Drashnek-lezaar's daemons and the lizardmen forces of the Slann Mage-Priest Koelyelotyl.”
http://web.archive.org/web/200303061...nek-lezaar.htm

Kroq-Gar = "Scar-Leader Kroq-Gar is an ancient Saurus Warrior from the now ruined temple-city of Xhotl. Having lived for thousands of years, and fought in countless wars, he has witnessed much change in the world, yet his mind is solely focused on battle, as is the way with all Saurus."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Lord Quex = ”Lord Quex enacts his realignment of the continents. In the course of the continental fine-tuning much of the world suffers disastrous earthquakes — most notably affecting Skavenblight and the Dwarf realm that stretches across the Worlds Edge Mountains.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Slann

Lord Xltep = ”Skink scribes record that Lord Xltep is plagued by memory loss; a fog has descended upon his once-clear thoughts.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Slann

Nakai the Wanderer = ”Nakai is one of the last Kroxigor of the legendary First Spawning. Originally home at Tlanxla, he was left masterless after the city's destruction during the Great Catastrophe. Since then, Nakai has not pledged himself to a single city, instead wandering where the Great Plan deems his presence necessary. He famously appeared at the Defence of Itza during the Great Catastrophe, during which he slew so many daemons at the Bridge of the Stars that the entities of chaos fear to tread this place even today.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Nakai

Lord Skrin = "Lord Skrin felt his amphibian skin pimple as the magical energy of the ley line poured through him. The Slann's mastery of magic was total, making them the greatest sorcerers in the world."
https://i.imgur.com/nP4LPDE.png White Dwarf 245
https://i.imgur.com/rBYba3i.png White Dwarf 245

Lord Tepec-Inzi = Lord Tepec-Inzi once invaded Naggaroth, defeating a massive dark elf force to recover the Star Stela of Quertli.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Scar-Veteran Bok-Ax = "Learning of the threat, Scar-Veteran Bok-Ax immediately redirected his Cold One Riders to meet the Skaven artillery, charging through the foliage and slaughtering the crew before the weapons could open fire and reduce the Saurus to little more than burnt flesh."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Tehenhauin, the Prophet of Sotek = "Upon the field of battle, Tehenhauin is wont to attack in the manner of his patron deity - the twin-tailed serpent. As the snake slithers through the undergrowth, so the Prophet and his army make use of their knowledge of the jungle, silently approaching the enemy and awaiting the opportune moment to strike. At that instant, Tehenhauin attacks with lethal intent, focusing his army's venomous energy on the enemy's weakest point."
https://i.imgur.com/EyWhnjM.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

Ulha'up, Voyager in the Rain Drops of Eternity = "Lord Ulha'up was a Slann of prodigious power; but he was also quite mad. He determined to explore the world, his attendants spreading the word of the Old Ones wherever he went. He believed that the rest of the world was spiritually and physically corrupt, and that were he ever to touch anything of that world, his own powers would be grounded and corrupted also. Everywhere he went he travelled on his palanquin, a long train of other such platforms bearing supplies behind. When this became damaged in a battle, his Temple Guard lifted him up upon their shoulders, and a litter was made of crude branches, to carry him onwards. Ulha'up has long since passed beyond the sublime communion, and so the Mage-Priests of Lustria have no idea where he may be, or even if he still lives. Perhaps one day he will return to Lustria, having spread the wisdom of the gods far and wide. Most of the Stann doubt this."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book
https://i.imgur.com/QhzkRko.png White Dwarf 96

Xinthua Tzeqal = "Amongst the Slann, Xinthua Tzeqal is one of the youngest. He had seen scarcely more than three thousand orbits of this world since crawling from his birthing pool, and the patchwork of continents, the massive stone slabs that glided across his planet's skin like lily pads across a pond, had not moved more than a few miles."
https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Xinthua_Tzeqal

Heroes

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Itzi-Bitzi, the Piranha Warrior = "Itzi-bitzi was one of the most tenacious and warlike Skink Chiefs ever to serve the Mage-Priests of Lustria. He sealed the doom of scores of raiding expeditions intent on the pillage of sacred relics. The annals of the Old World, Ulthuan, Naggaroth and Norsca are full of the tales of adventurers who set out for Lustria never to return. Itzi-bitzi knows where their bones lie, picked clean by the geckos of the swamps, the red ants and the carrion beetles."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Kroq = ”There are sometimes variations among the spawnings of Saurus, and some individuals are stronger, tougher or more intelligent than others. These are not mutations, but naturally occurring variations. Such distinctive and often more dangerous Saurus Warriors tend to become leaders, champions and heroes among the Saurus legions. Kroq is one such unique Saurus. He is distinguished by his crocodilian head with his huge jaws boasting many sharp teeth.”
http://warhammerfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Kroq

Oxyotl, Survivor of Pahuax = "So it is that Oxyotl found a path back to Lustria. He passed through places he may never speak of, such as silent halls of the Lost City of the Old Ones. But millennia have passed and the world has changed. The Lizardmen's realm has all but fallen, the lesser races spread like a plague and there are portents that the Daemons are set to return. Indeed, Oxyotl's own return is regarded as one such omen, and in its wake fresh spawnings of the rare Chameleon Skinks have occurred. It is unknown to all but Oxyotl how he escaped that dread land, for he does not speak of it and no Slann dare read his mind, lest a taint of Chaos remain within him. Oxyotl has since gathered others of his kind and has resumed his hunt, mustering strength against the return of the daemonic hordes."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Poqenichi, Bearer of the Warbanner = One totem was a hide cut from the back of Plague Pontifex Quetch, who was defeated by the Skink Chief Poqenichi at the Battle of the Golden Stair. Poqenichi mounted the plague-ridden hide upon a pole and bore it into battle as the armies warbanner, and so revolting was its stink that the entire army was driven into a murderous rage by its very presence
https://i.imgur.com/hdwl1wO.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

Tein'huak Cloudbane = A mercenary Skink Chief on a Ripperdactyl.
https://i.imgur.com/ieDUuYk.png White Dwarf 407
https://i.imgur.com/oaK5UnX.png White Dwarf 407

Tiktaq’to, Master of Skies = "Tiktaq'to and his sky patrols are amongst the most skilled aerial riders in the world. He directs his forces from far above, with a view otherwise afforded only to the gods. His riders dive upon their prey at incredible speeds, dodging bow-fire in breath-taking aerial maneuvers. Large boulders crush enemy war machines as easily as the crews. At the vital moment, Tiktaq'to himself descends to join his forces, eviscerating the intruders in one fell swoop."

Magical Weapons, Armour, Amulets, Scrolls and Other Items

This section deals in those magical items that can be used by this faction. This is by no means a full list, I doubt I'll ever get that, but it will provide modders with information if they wish to add new magical weapons, armour and items into the game to be used.

Common Magic Items

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Sacred Plaques (Slann-Only Magic Items)

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Blessed Spawnings

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Blessed Mark of the Old Ones = ”This most auspicious and rare of blessing is easily recognisable, for those who bear it usually have white or even albino skin tones. They are treated with much reverence, for their fate is seen as important in the eyes of the Old Ones.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Chotec = ”The heat of the sun burns within the bodies of those blessed by the solar god Chotec, filling them with energy at times when other cold-blooded creatures become sluggish. A fiery red-orange is Chotec’s associated colour.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Huanchi = ”Naturally stealthy, those blessed by Huanchi, jaguar-god of the earth and night, are able to pass effortlessly through the thickest jungle undergrowth with little effort.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Itzl = ”As well as naturally exuding a subtle musk that Cold Ones recognise and are comfortable with, those blessed by Itzl often have elaborate bony, head-crests.” They are known known to ride Carnosaurs.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Quetzl = ”Those spawnings that are blessed by the divine protector and warrior-god Quetzl have especially thick, toughened scales covering their bodies, and bony spurs often protrude from their forearms.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Sotek = ”The favoured spawnings of Sotek, the serpent great-god, are infused with the vengeful deity’s blood-fuelled anger, and will attack their foes with great fury. Blood red is the colour associated with Sotek, and the physical representation of his blessing can vary from red skin and scales, to sublte hues of red on the crests.” They get an extra attack when they charge into combat.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Tepok = ”The blessing of inscrutable Tepok, the mysterious feathered-serpent god of the air, manifests itself in the form of protection from magic, and is often signified by the colour purple.” They add dispel dice in the tabletop, I guess they’d have magic resistance ingame.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Tlazcotl = ”A tinge of yellow is often noticeable on those spawned under Tlazcotl’s cold eye. These Saurus reflect the impassiveness of Tlazcotl and remain unaffected by even the most harrowing experiences.” Immune to psychology.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Tzunki = ”Strongly associated with water, those blessed by the Sacred Spawning of Tzunki sometimes have mottled sea-green skin hues, their claws are often webbed and they have powerful gills hidden in the folds of skin on their necks.” They are aquatic and have greater initiative in the tabletop.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Xapati = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Xapati too. Xapati appears to be a god of vengeance.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Xholankha = One of the Old Ones was called Xholankha, he taught one of the oldest Mage-Priests Chiccotta of Zlatlan, who destroyed the daemonic legions in the southlands by sacrificing himself. Though there isn’t a spawning attributed to him, it appears that there are often spawnings linked to the different Old Ones. So I can see this as being loreful, though without any idea of what they might do that is different.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Rigg = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Rigg too. "The name of Rigg, called the Outcast, is mentioned in a small number of glyphs. Highly unusually, this being is referred to in the feminine context, and in one glyph sequence referred to as the 'Mother of Kalith', a term with no known meaning to the Lizardmen."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Conalxa = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Conalxa too. "Some exist in name only, such as Conalxa, Inhamex and Yuxa, the sacred plaques naming these lost gods but providing no further details. It is probable others exist, and that not even the Mage-Priests know the names of all of the Old Ones."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Inhamex = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Inhamex too. "Some exist in name only, such as Conalxa, Inhamex and Yuxa, the sacred plaques naming these lost gods but providing no further details. It is probable others exist, and that not even the Mage-Priests know the names of all of the Old Ones."

Blessed Spawning of Yuxa = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Yuxa too. "Some exist in name only, such as Conalxa, Inhamex and Yuxa, the sacred plaques naming these lost gods but providing no further details. It is probable others exist, and that not even the Mage-Priests know the names of all of the Old Ones."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Potec = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Potec too. "Potec - he who wards against the supernatural."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Xokha = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Xokha too. "Xokha is the spirit of stone, the giver of strength, and the Arbiter of Duty."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Uxmac = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Uxmac too. "Uxmac is the messenger of the gods, who will one day return to the world, bearing the word of the Old Ones."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Blessed Spawning of Caxuatn = Though this spawning is not mentioned in the army book, there appear to be spawnings for most of the gods, so it stands to reason that there could be blessed spawnings for Caxuatn too. "Caxuatn is the predator, he who stalks the deep jungles, whose passing causes the beasts to become suddenly silent and the winds to become still."

Blade of Revered Tzunki = ”Said to be the weapon wielded by the Old One Tzunki himself, this exquisitively crafted weapon is made of a hard, black material.

https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Burning Blade of Chotec = ”An acrid smell of sulphur exudes from the barbed blades on this weapon. It passes easily through armour, blackening and buckling steel and causing searing wounds that blister and smoke.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Dagger of Sotek = ”This cruel, curved dagger has taken thousands of lives - sacrifices offered up to the bloodthirsty god Sotek. The rat-kin particularly fear this weapon, for it has been the doom of many of their number.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Piranha Blade = ”The blade of this weapon is inlaid with thousands of tiny barbed teeth that rip and tear anything that they touch, causing even minor wounds to become serious and often fatal.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Scimitar of the Sun Resplendent = ”As light as a dagger, this curved blade invigorates the wielder with the power of the sun. They are filled with energy and mighty powers of endurance, and a fiery anger overcomes them in battle so that they attack their foes with great fury.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Staff of the Lost Sun = ”This is a short staff made from a multicoloured metallic substance, with arcane glyphs moulded into the shaft. Beams of bright, intensely hot light fire from one end of the staff, searing the flesh of those they touch.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

Stegadon War-Spear = "The tip of this massive spear was carved from the born of the very first and greatest Stegadon to bear a war howdah. The gnarled horns of this beast, inlaid with magical runes, were said to be so bard they could shatter mountains with ease."
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 7th Edition Army Book

Sword of the Hornet = ”When this sword is picked up, the bearer is filled with minor premonitions, seeing events seconds before they happen. In this way, the sword’s wielder can perceive where the enemy will attack, and launch one of their own a moment before.”
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...290REo2Nmc1U1E Lizardmen 6th Edition Army Book

The Blade of Realities = ”A weapon brought to the world by the Old Ones, it shimmers in and out of existence, for it exists in more than one plane of reality and can sever the souls of those it touches.” Deals double damage to daemons.

When a storm of magic breaks, it isn’t merely battlefield sorcery that increases in power. All manner of spells and items dormant for decades suddenly crackle into vibrant life, eager to have their power unleashed on an unsuspecting world. Chief among these are Kadon’s Scrolls of Binding; each scroll was crafted with a particular beast in mind. These came from the Warhammer Supplement: Monstrous Arcanum, in the chart in that book it listed each monster for each faction as either Abhorrent, Binding Scroll or Kinship, these monsters here are all but those that are Abhorrent to this faction. The Scrolls of Binding that may be used vary from race to race, the following are those that may be used by this faction:

Whilst it is unknown whether his madness sprang from isolation, too many attempts at creating intoxicating ‘elixirs’ or the honeyed promises of whispering Daemons, there can be no doubt that he was utterly insane. No rational wizard would create a book inked on the skin of his closest family, much less constantly follow its advice.”

Lore Information Regarding the Lizardmen

When a series is being continuously updated for a quarter of a century there is bound to be a massive amount of lore that has been created for it. This is an attempt to collate important snippets of lore that I have found during my research into units. I am presenting these in note form rather than in quote form due to the sheer amount of information that is potentially able to be displayed here, but I hope that it will prove useful or interesting to you regardless.

General Information

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- The Lizardmen have despatched small expeditions to the Old World, usually placing able commanders with them.
- Lizardmen can find the Old World to be a vast, confusing place and struggle with the seasonal fluctuations.
https://i.imgur.com/0i7jEKT.png White Dwarf 96

- Giant Scorpions dwell in the jungles of Lustria and other hot places of the world.
https://i.imgur.com/fK3PRof.jpg 3rd Ed. Armies Book

- A remnant of the prehistoric inhabitants of Lustria, it is still found deep in the jungles of that lush continent.
- The slann prize the tiger as a fighting animal.
https://i.imgur.com/R2IQxk6.png 3rd Ed. Armies Book

- The brutish lizardmen are not used to thinking deeply about anything, unlike the Slann.
- Lizardman skin can change colours.
https://i.imgur.com/nP4LPDE.png White Dwarf 245

- If an invader returns their stolen treasures, there is a chance the Lizardmen will let them leave with their lives and additional supplies. Pirazzo discovered this when his men sacrificed their loot in the hopes of surviving and it worked.
https://i.imgur.com/jchZRpX.png White Dwarf 305

- The oppressive climate of Lustria suits the alien lizardmen.
- Cities were built in what is now known as the Southlands and in Cathay.
- Lustria is home to a massive array of poisonous and deadly species, from the tiniest bloodmaggot to monstrous predators similar in size and temperament to the dragons of the Old World.
- Lustria is pervaded by quagmires and bogs.
- Lustria is so dangerous in all possible ways, that only the Realm of Chaos is more deadly. It is severely difficult for anyone warmblooded to establish a foothold here.
- Megalithic temple-cities form an invisible matrix of power that stretches across the continent.
- Each temple-city is carefully positioned to relate to specific constellations and various astral and stellar alignments.
- Each temple-city is dedicated to a different founding Old One divinity, although within each city there are other numerous pyramids dedicated to other blessed Old Ones as well as Sotek.
- Lizardmen perform bloody sacrifices as sacred rituals.
- All Lizardmen are cold-blooded and naturally slow to react to psychology, if they react at all.
- Other races believe the Lizardmen are incapable of emotion, bloodthirsty and little more than heartless killers. This is not necessarily true, they just view the world from a different perspective.
- Salamanders are giant predatory amphibians that inhabit swamplands and estuaries of the jungles. They are swift-moving on land and water and are capable of launching highly corrosive, flaming liquid from their gullet.
- Terradons have keen eyesight that can pierce the gloom of the jungle, enabling them to spot prey at great distances.
- Terradons are surprisingly agile and are expert gliders.
- Stegadons are among the largest and most aggressive of all creatures in Lustria. They are ancient creatures that were living there when the Old Ones first arrived.
- Stegadons are omnivores, they feed on everything from trunks of vast forest trees to the flesh of any creature foolish enough to get in their way. If they fought a rival male, they’ll eat them too.
- Stegadons wallow in swamps to cool down where their armoured hides protect them from the crocodiles and gigantic predatory fish that infest the waters.
- Occasionally a precious Carnosaur egg is stolen from its nest by brave skink hunters and brought to the temple-cities to be incubated. These are highly treasured and eventually a baby Carnosaur will break free from it. Even as newborns they can bite a Skink in half.
- The backbone of any Lizardman army will be made up of large numbers of both Saurus and Skinks.
- Skinks skirmishers provide a good counterpoint to the solid close combat abilities of the Saurus.
- Lizardmen are predominantly blue, but the tones of the skin and scales can vary greatly depending on the region where they are spawned.
- The beasts that dwell within the jungles of Lustria display a wide variety of exotic patterns and colours.
- The lizardmen are hatched in spawning pools, where they develop from tiny, carnivorous tadpole-like creatures into the bipedal beings they are when they pull themselves free of the water.
- On occasion, entire spawn broods are hatched under the influence of one or more of the gods, displaying certain characteristics and natural abilities different from the other spawnings. These are revered as sacred warriors.
- Throughout the centuries, various sacred spawnings have waxed and waned, some disappearing altogether for thousands of years before reappearing.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- The lizardmen do not value gold for its beauty, but for its longevity, utilising it in the knowledge that it will remain uncorroded by the march of aeons.
- The jungles are crossed by thousands of miles of waterways, from small, fast-flowing streams to the widest of rivers. Greatest amongst these is the Amaxon, which rises in the Spine of Sotek mountain range and flows down to a basin so vast it encompasses the domains of three temple-cities.
- At the Amaxon’s widest points, the opposite bank is scarcely visible, and archipelagos stretch for miles along the river. What might be hidden on some of these isolated islands has never been discovered, for even the aquatic Skinks avoid them, by order of the Slann.
- To the south of the temple-city of Oyxl, the jungles give way to a vast and fertile plain stretching many hundreds of miles to the southern-most extent of the continent of Lustria.
- The plains are named after their primary inhabitants, the huge, vicious, flightless birds called Culchan.
- The plains are an eerie place, instilled with arcane mystery, and strange lights streak across the skies by night. Perhaps this is some form of fallout from the terrible energies unleashed during the battles of the Great Catastrophe.
- The Lizardmen are divided into a number of sub-species. All are impassive and inscrutable, yet savage and entirely devoted to their long-lost creators.
- Most that set foot upon Lustria die a gruesome death before travelling far into the jungle.
- Lizardmen possess many relics and remnants of the Old Ones’ arcane technology, these have become objects of veneration and superstition.
- The Coatl is one of the rarest creatures to be found in Lustria. It has a snake-like body and massive feathered wings, they are highly intelligent and powerful mages.
- Thunder Lizards are behemoths, so large they dwarf even the mighty Stegadons. Their tread shakes the earth and their deafening roar can be heard for miles. Fortunately they are very rare.
- Should a Thunder Lizard's distant roar be heard, then runners will be sent to the nearest temple-city and the populace roused lest the beast's path take it near A Thunder Lizard passing through a city is akin to a natural disaster of the kind that sunk Chupayotl.
- A Thunder Lizard once fought a gigantic sea monster lasting for an entire cycle of moons, their battle ended up destroying a large section of Xlanhuapec, including the Temple of the Lost that housed many irreplaceable Old One relics.
- The savage cutting edges of Lizardmen weapons are made from a material unknown outside Lustria. Outsiders have dubbed the material ‘obsinite'.
- The secrets of the manufacture of obsinite have thus far remained hidden from the jealous eyes of strangers, guarded carefully by the caste of Skink artisan-priests responsible for constructing the weapons. Indeed, it is said to be more durable even than the highest quality steel and capable of smashing any armour it strikes.
- The continent of Lustria is one of the most hostile regions in the entire world.
- The majority of Lustria is covered in primordial jungle seething with flesh-eating tropical diseases, voracious blood-sucking parasites and mighty, prehistoric carnivores. Even the weather is inimical to all but native life, for tropical rainstorms and violent cyclones lash the jungles.
- To the Lizardmen, however, Lustria is a haven, a nigh impenetrable bulwark against the disorder set loose in the world with the coming of Chaos. Such is the legacy of the Old Ones that the Lizardmen are perfectly adapted to the environment of their homeland.
- A great amount of the plant life of Lustria is carnivorous.
- One type of fungus reproduces by choking a passing creature with a cloud of its spores, which then gestate within the victim's body, slowly transmuting it into a sickening parody of mammal and mushroom!
- The mountains are home to hundreds of volcanoes, which make crossing the range extremely hazardous. Mighty glaciers are to be found there too, descending the valleys almost to the jungles.
- The mountains are dotted with Lizardmen sites, though many are disused and stand mysteriously empty despite never having been touched by war.

- Lizardmen appear to drug their captives
https://i.imgur.com/28Y7ZLz.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

- It’s said the lizardmen value gold less than iron, but will kill whole nations for stone plaques.

Slann

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- The Slann are a highly mystic, erudite and weird race.
- The Slann are the most magically powerful people in the world, more so than even the High Elves.
- The Slann hold very firmly to the belief that the ‘lands across the pond’ are places of great spiritual pollution.
- Some slann are carried on the backs of Cold Ones or by lobotomised human slaves.
- Slann and Lizardmen conduct sacrifices.
- The Slann want to know everything about the Old World, enough that they will question prisoners on it.
- Slann can’t tell one ‘dry-skin’ from another.
- The Slann of Ulha’up’s expedition made binding pacts with ambassadors and mercenary captains from all over the Old World, though these were down to misunderstandings.
https://i.imgur.com/QhzkRko.png White Dwarf 96
https://i.imgur.com/0i7jEKT.png White Dwarf 96

- They’re the greatest sorcerers in the world.
- Sometimes Slann will war among themselves over misunderstandings regarding the golden plaques of the Old Ones.
- Even Slann can be corrupted by the Xlanax (daemons).
https://i.imgur.com/nP4LPDE.png White Dwarf 245
https://i.imgur.com/rBYba3i.png White Dwarf 245

- The slann believe they are custodians of the world
- There was a time of great confusion for the skinks about 5,000 years ago but nothing is known about it
https://i.imgur.com/F889jT5.png White Dwarf 306

- The Slann were the most favoured by the Old Ones.
- Slann are blessed with considerable abilities of mind, they were gifted creators, able to manipulate matter, time and space with the aid of their masters.
- From the designs of the Old Ones, it was the Slann who built the immense constructions that hung like moons above the northern and southern poles, gateways that enabled instantaneous travel through rifts in space.
- There were five spawnings of Slann created by the Old Ones after they arrived on the world, and none have spawned since their departure.
- Slann of the First Generation Spawning were the builders of the first temple-cities. They were the most powerful of the Mage-Priests and the only beings permitted to enter the presence of the Old Ones. They died many thousands of years ago and their bodies were embalmed and kept as venerated relics.
- Slann of the Second Generation Spawning were spawned to alter the world’s alignment and orbit. There are only five remaining and are immensely old, perhaps the oldest creatures in existence, and they rule the greatest of the temple-cities.
- Slann of the Third Generation aided in the construction of the lesser temple-cities where they rule to this day. There are possibly less than twenty in existence.
- Slann of the Fourth Generation are more numerous and were spawned to attend to the warp gates above the poles and aid in the creation of the World Pond.
- Slann of the Fifth Generation were spawned mere centuries before the great catastrophe. They are the youngest and most numerous but are still very ancient. They are the most active and aggressive of the Slann.
- The Slann reawoke Old One wards that were scattered across areas of power. These included Lustria, the Southlands and along the islands circling the southern pole.
- Slann took the role of protectors of the world onto themselves.
- The third generation of Slann found the cities of Tlaxtlan, Quetza and Zlatlan.
- The Slann become increasingly dormant, entering longer and longer trance-like states.
- The eldest Slann Mage-Priests can form gateways which entire armies of Lizardmen can use to travel across the world within hours.
- The Slann perceive time differently to the short-lived mortal creatures of the world.
- They endlessly ponder the meaning of time and the mysteries of the universe. They are more aware of the magnitude of the universe than any other being in the world.
- All the Slann alive today are the same ones who once served the Old Ones, though they were all spawned on this world after the Old Ones’ arrival.
- The numbers of Slann are slowly dwindling, never to be replaced as there have been no spawnings since the arrival of chaos.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- Several hundred miles to the north of Itza is to be found a place of power named the Emerald Pools.
- The pools take the form of dozens of placid, lotus-strewn ponds which glow with an eerie green, inner light. The pools are especially sacred to the Mage-Priests, each of whom makes a pilgrimage to them every century or so.
- No Lizardmen other than the Slann are allowed to enter the waters of the Emerald Pools, the Saurus, Skinks and Kroxigor under strict instruction to await their master's return at the pool's edge.
- The Slann spend many days in the Emerald Pools, the sacred waters replenishing their bodies and perhaps refreshing their ancient souls.
- While the Slann Mage-Priests meditated, dreaming of their lost realms and their creator-gods, their society slid towards barbarism. The Lizardmen even began to make bloody sacrifices, offering up the lives of captured enemies to their creators in an effort to attract their blessings.
- In the wake of the defence of Itza, Lord Kroak’s skink attendants lamented the death of their master. They collected every scrap of his body, and with great reverence, sewed it back together and swathed it in resin-soaked wrappings. Thus was created the first Relic Priest.
- The Slann Mage-Priests are able to use the geomantic web to communicate with one another over vast distances. By entering a deep trance, they are able to transmit their thoughts from one to another throughout the entirety of the web.
- The bodies of dead slann are prepared with resin and are bedecked in gold.
- The chief defence against a Thunder Lizard is for a Slann to bring his formidable powers to bear on the creature's simple mind, forcing it to turn aside from the city.
- At any one time, up to half the Mage-Priests alive in the world today are engaged upon the task of opposing the influence of Chaos wherever it might be encountered. Their spirit-selves battle in the ether against foes that would escape the Realm of Chaos and invade the world were it not for the Slanns' unstinting efforts.
- Though the Lizardmen did not aid in the Great War of Chaos in person, the Slann pooled their efforts to weaken the daemonic horde that assailed the Empire.
- The Slann know that to touch the ground will earth their magical powers and disturb the serenity of their thoughts.
- The Mage-Priests go to war upon floating palanquins made of unknown substances. These palanquins are magical artefacts of a long-lost age, but the secrets of their construction have long since been lost.
- About the palanquin shimmers the potent Shield of the Old Ones, keeping the Mage-Priest safe from enemy bow fire.
Warhammer Fantasy 7th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- All of the Slann who knew the Old Ones when they dwelt upon the earth are now dead
- Although younger Slann were spawned before the Great Catastrophe, they were not permitted to be in their presence
- The Slann of the First Spawning acted as intermediaries between the Old Ones and the other Slann
- All lesser slann faithfully, and unquestionably, worshipped and obeyed the Old Ones as though they were living gods
- The slann have no idea what they look like, they represented them with various carved images, totems and idols derived from hearsay and their imaginations
- The last of the First Spawning inscribed the Old Ones sacred plan onto plaques of gold in every temple-city
- Many have been lost to time or to invaders
- The Mage-Priests will go to any lengths to recover the lost plaques

Skinks

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- The Skinks were created after the Saurus as the Old Ones had need of dextrous, quick-witted servants to ensure the smooth running of day-to-day life.
- Privileged Skinks attend to the Mage-Priests, recording any proclamation that is uttered, whether verbally or telepathically.
- Stone carvings dedicated to Old One divinities are kept in good order by teams of Skink artisans.
- Skink barrios surround the pyramids, forming the working suburbs of the city. Here they pursue crafts that enable the city to live and breathe.
- The lives of Skink are strictly ordered, each one knowing his duty and purpose within the whole. Day-to-day life is efficient and structured.
- Skink spawning pools are on the outskirts of cities, amongst the encroaching jungles.
- Every new moon a brood of hatchlings swarm from the waters to fulfil the Slann’s interpretation of the Great Plan.
- The most common weapon of Skink hunters is the blowpipe. They use darts tipped with lethal tree-frog venoms.
- Skinks are small, agile and intelligent creatures bred by the Old Ones from the giant amphibious creatures that have inhabited the swamps since the dawn of time.
- They were created to perform the mundane jobs that required a quick mind and nimble fingers.
- Skink are highly organised and social beings, they communicate quickly and effectively, and are perfectly adapted to ensure the smooth day-to-day running of temple cities.
- Skink are not born warriors and their skittish nature will see them flee from strong resistance. Yet they are stealthy and swift, and deadly using their favoured weapons.
- Skink make for exceptionally good hunters.
- Skinks have a natural affinity to water and can swim swiftly through the dark jungle swamps and rivers.
- Very rarely a spawning will result in just a single Skink being hatched. These are particularly attuned to the magical energies in the world or are destined to become mighty heroes. They often become prophets, priests or attendants to the Slann.
- Chameleon Skinks are a subspecies of Skink. They are more aggressive than other skink and their role centers on scouting, infiltration, concealment and hunting.
- Chameleon Skinks have chameleonic skin that can shift in texture and colour in a heartbeat.
- They are an unusual spawning that in more recent years have returned to the world after becoming little more than a memory.
- Chameleon Skinks were originally bred only in the sacred spawning pools of the pyramid-city of Pahuax. The breed almost died out after the city was destroyed soon after the fall of the polar gates.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- In hidden groves deep in the jungle, is to be found a plant so rare that an entire caste of Skinks is dedicated to locating and harvesting it. The jungle lotus is a plant of magical aspect that grows only in the wild, for not even the magic of the Slann can’t force it to grow elsewhere.

- At the time of the great war against the skaven, it was the skinks who bore the brunt of the fighting

Saurus

- The Saurus are spawned in subterranean caverns.
- Temple Guard are dedicated Saurus warriors whose sole existence centres on protecting the Slann.
- Saurus are ferocious creatures bred by the Old Ones specifically for war and protection. Their entire bodies have been designed for combat. Even unarmed they are capable of slaying their enemies.
- Some have remarked that Saurus are dull-witted and stupid creatures, yet this is a simplistic view. It’s true that they have little skill in verbal communication skills and can only perform simple tasks outside of warfare, but that is because their intelligence has been guided towards a very specific purpose; war.
- Saurus are spawned in dark pools in the caverns beneath the temple cities. From the moment they are grown enough to crawl from spawning pools, they know how to fight and conduct warfare.
- They are capable of launching perfectly timed ambushes and manoeuvres, even when it appears there was no communication amongst them.
- Some spawnings occasionally produce Saurus Warriors that have slightly different natural abilities and skills than their brethren.
- The Temple Guard are a variant spawning, a subspecies created to protect the Slann. They are spawned with more heavily armoured scales than other Saurus.
- The longer Saurus live, the tougher and more ferocious they become.
- The energetic Saurus of the blessing of Chotec are represented with a vibrant orange.
- Sea-green hues are found on the aquatic Saurus of blessed Tzunki.
- Those blessed by Tlazcotl are marked by vivid yellows and are fearless fighters.

- Saurus of Sotek are marked with red colouration. They are an aggressive, blood-fuelled spawning.
- A few rare Saurus display the blessed Mark of the Old Ones which makes them albino. They are very powerful fighters.
- Some very ancient Saurus were spawned under the blessings of multiple gods.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- The soldiers of the empire are the Saurus, single-minded and mighty warriors bearing spiked weapons of heavy obsidian and bronze, and protected by bony armoured plates.

The Great Plan

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- The creators of the Lizardmen society were a mysterious interstellar race known as the Old Ones. These aloof and mysterious beings wielded unfathomable power and intellect.
- They were able to twist the fabric of space and time to their will, and could summon vast energies that they manipulated in the form of devastating magical spells and powers.
- The Old Ones were responsible for twisting and shaping many of the races, and their armies of Lizardmen extinguished many species they viewed as undesirable.
- The Old Ones made their city-capital in Lustria, the Lizardmen are at their strongest in this realm.
- Communication and travel across continents was once instantaneous and easy for the Old Ones. Even their favoured servants, the Slann, were capable of it but not with the casual ease of their creators.
- The Old Ones altered the make-up of the crude life forms that dwelt within Lustria and the other realms, remoulding them into beings that fitted their desires and needs.
- The Old Ones directed the evolution of the fledgling races and taught the ancestors of the modern races how to manipulate the essence of magical energy.
- It is unknown if the Old Ones demolished the Warp Gates or if they perished by the energies exerted by their collapse.
- Parts of the Warp Gates were thrown all over the earth, falling as fiery comets that blasted the earth, causing plates to shift, earthquakes to wrack the lands and the seas to boil. Huge amounts of raw chaotic material coalesced into matter in the form of a new and malignant moon.
- The largest of the wounds to the fabric of reality were at the extreme north and south, this allowed daemons to enter the world.
- The world of the Old Ones was one of order and stability, and it is this regulation that the Slann yearn for.
- Humans were favoured children of the Old Ones.
- Some claim that the Old Ones foresaw the future and could predict when warriors with particular skills would be needed, and so the seemingly random spawnings are all part of the Old Ones’ careful calculations.
- Unusual spawnings are regarded as blessings from the gods themselves, sent to aid the Slann in their sacred duty.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- The coming of Chaos to the world and the subsequent deviation from the Great Plan, the alignments are slowly drifting awry. In fact, at least one temple-city has been lost entirely, its location and the fate of its population unknown even to the Mage-Priests.
- Many of the world’s races have emerged in the age since the departure of the Old Ones, their presence unnatural and contrary to the proper order of the world. The Lizardmen make it their mission to eradicate such races, to restore the balance lost with their gods.
- The Old Ones ruled an empire that spanned not only the stars but also time itself. They were inscrutable engineer-mystics for whom astrology and astronomy, science and magic, reality and art were one and the same.

- They sent warbands to hunt down the skaven and bring them back to sacrifice on a new altar to Sotek
- This act brought the plague into contact with the mage-priests, and they succumbed and died without being able to warn their fellows in other cities
- No other Slann knew of the prophecy as it had been hidden by Chaqua’s mage-priests
https://i.imgur.com/UmySOuj.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

- The skinks of Chaqua were left leaderless after the slann perished, until Tehenhauin declared himself the Prophet of Sotek and rallied them into a cult
- Skinks were swayed by this cult as they were the primary victims of the plague
- The entire continent was at war, and Tehenhauin marched far and wide saving cities from the skaven, but the slann viewed the cult with disdain
- The Mage-Priests forbade the bringing of skaven captives into cities for sacrifice as they did not want to have a repeat of Chaqua’s fate

This prophecy dealt with a twisted strain of rats walking upright in parody of the Lizardmen.

- Each city is laid out differently according to certain astral alignments.
- Other cities are planned according to the alignments of various constellations. Two or more cities may be aligned on the same planets or constellations, but in different ways.
- The most prominent features of any temple-city are its pyramid-temples. Each pyramid is placed in alignment with one or more stars or planets, or some other celestial body. These are arranged around the central plaza and rise up in platforms, giving a stepped appearance.
- Beneath the temples are labyrinths of passages where the Saurus Warriors dwell ready to defend the inner sanctums.
- The pyramid-temples are decorated with sculptures and sometimes painted in striking colours.
- Among the spawning ponds are other pools infested with carnivorous piranha fish. These hazards act as defences for the city; trapping unwary foes who try to circumvent the causeways.
- The causeways become processional ways as they proceed into the heart of the city. They are lined with carved stone stelae covered in sculptured scenes and glyphs recording various events, myths or rituals important to the inhabitants. The roads may pass between tall obelisks which are positioned to define the alignment of the axis of the city on various stars and planets.
- At the heart of the city is a great paved plaza. The pyramid temples face onto the plaza from all sides. This place is where the population gather to observe rituals and where the army of the city musters before marching off to battle.
- In the Skink Barrios the skinks live and pursue their craft of making the artefacts of Lizardmen civilisation. There are many types of craftsmen here: the makers of scrolls, beaters of copper, brewers of potions and the sculptors of glyphs, as well as workers and their overseers. The courtyards and workshops are full of activity.
- Beneath the placid waters of Lake Xuhua lie untold riches gleaming invitingly in the shallows. The instant an intruder dives beneath the surface, he is trapped and finds himself unable to break the surface. He is condemned to drown pounding hopelessly on an invisible barrier across the surface of the water.
- The records of the Lizardmen state that Lake Xuhua rose over and drowned a fabulously wealthy temple-city. According to the plaques this place was studded with gems of all hews. When the lake rose over the unnamed city, all of its occupants drowned, and no Lizardman has ever attempted to intrude there since.
- The Sentinels of Xeti take the form of row upon row of monoliths, each dozens of yards high and covered in intricately graven patterns and shimmering green inlays. It is said that the Sentinels were erected at the order of the Mage-Priest Lord Arexibo of Itza soon after the Great Catastrophe. Their purpose is to listen for messages from the Old Ones, though to date none have been heard.
- Several hundred miles to the north of Itza is to be found a place of power named the Emerald Pools.
- No Lizardmen other than the Slann are allowed to enter the waters of the Emerald Pools, the Saurus, Skinks and Kroxigor under strict instruction to await their master's return at the pool's edge.
- No intruder has ever penetrated the jungles around the Emerald Pools, even during the tumultuous years of the war against the Skaven Clan Pestilens.

- The Lizardmen fight for their domains, but will also take the opportunity to regain territory lost to the occupants of the Vampire Coast.
- With their domains under threat, the Mage-Priests order long-abandoned and ruined temple-cities to be reoccupied and held at all costs.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- Lord Kroak died in Itza during the first war against chaos, so great was his determination that he didn’t let death hinder him in his defence of the city.
- Itza is the First City, Xlanhuapec and Tlax followed soon after.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- Itza is the First City, the keystone in the global web of power.
- In the wake of the defence of Itza, Lord Kroak’s skink attendants lamented the death of their master. They collected every scrap of his body, and with great reverence, sewed it back together and swathed it in resin-soaked wrappings. Thus was created the first Relic Priest.
- The First City has never once, in over ten thousand years, yielded to an attacker. Itza itself is one of the most impressive of all the extant temple-cities.
- Watching over it all are the warriors of the Host of Itza. The temple-city's armies are second to none, for they guard the First City, the sacred ground upon which the Old Ones themselves once walked, and perhaps one day may do so again.
- Beneath Itza in buried vaults are housed the most powerful of the Old Ones' creations, devices so potentially devastating that not even the Slann Mage-Priests dwell upon their nature for long.
- Tlanxa is an Old One described as the embodiment of the warlike nature of the Lizardmen, and a pair of matching glyph sequences in Hexoatl and Itza make reference to him riding to war in a mighty sky-chariot.
- The Temple of the Great Serpent in Itza appears from a distance to be made of terracotta - in reality it is coated in the dried blood of thousands of enemies that have been sacrificed upon its flanks.

- MAP OF ITZA
https://i.imgur.com/XHBKmSv.png White Dwarf 306

- Legend states that the first ground trod upon by the Old Ones is where the city of Itza was built 12,500 years ago
- Itza is the greatest of the Lizardmen cities, and home to some of the mightiest practitioners of magic in the world
- There is no easy path to Itza, even by travelling up the Amaxon or Lambada
- The Spine of Sotek stretches the entire length of Lustria, but is only passable at a handful of points
- The closest pass to Itza is the Chasm of the Condor, which is protected by sentinels
- Itza is one of the most impressive cities
- The concentration of Slann makes the air seethe with arcane energy, and a feeling of serene contemplation overcomes all who visit it
https://i.imgur.com/pWnuGzr.png White Dwarf 306

- Itza’s armies are second-to-none, for they guard the First City, the sacred ground upon which the Old Ones themselves once walked
- In buried vaults beneath Itza are housed the most powerful of the Old One’s creations, devices so potentially devastating that not even the Slann Mage-Priests dwell upon their nature long
- In over 10,000 years Itza has not yielded once
https://i.imgur.com/2K968B6.png White Dwarf 306

- The largest temple in Itza is devoted to Sotek
- On the high days of Sotek the entire population turns out, even the remains of Lord Kroak, to voice their adulation to their god
- It is said that the sounds produced during this ritual are among the most unsettling to be voiced from mortal throats
- Temples to the Serpent God have deep snake-pits that dwell manifestations of Sotek
- Sacrifices are sent from all across Lustria, these are human, elf and other captives that are sacrificed in their droves
- The pyramid of Lord Kroak is colourfully decorated with sculptures depicting his life and victories
https://i.imgur.com/XDuqKT2.png White Dwarf 306

- The slann of the first spawning designed the city, while the second spawning shifted the orbit of the world to be more accommodating to the Old Ones
- The skinks were then built to start construction of the city, and the Kroxigors to move great stones to build mighty pyramids
https://i.imgur.com/cWwwQfq.png White Dwarf 306

- Each pyramid temple is dedicated to a god, who is to be a manifestation or messenger of the Old Ones, but they serve as residences for Mage-Priests
- The mummified relic-priests are held within the depths of these temples, the same ones they lived in
- From the palanquin chamber the Slann can commune telepathically with their kin, or study the stars for inspiration
- The great avenue that leads to the First City is lined for many miles with great statues of mighty lizards, hewed millennia past from single stones
- These unmoving statues have a nightmarish aspect, and some have sworn the monolithic heads have slowly moved to follow their passing
- To the east of Itza is the Bridge of Stars, a structure as ancient as Itza itself that crosses a vast rent in the earth
- Nakai famously held the Bridge against the daemons, and reaped such a toll that it is said that it is the only place in the mortal realm that they fear
- The pyramid of Itzl is said that the pyramid contains the most powerful and arcane machineries of destruction, and that the first slann mage-priests unleashed these in a cataclysmic tempest of mystical power that reduced the rampaging hordes of daemons to ashes
- The power contained there is so great that to this day wizards and others with mystic sight can sense its latent potency from miles away, and few can survive stepping upon the pyramid
https://i.imgur.com/4xg28Ok.png White Dwarf 306

- Itza is home to an unusually high number of skink priests, so it is not uncommon for a large number to accompany their armies to battle
https://i.imgur.com/EMhRET4.png White Dwarf 306

- Itza is at the very heart of the empire, it must maintain close links with the other temple cities
- Numerous couriers arrive daily from all over the continent
- There is a tradition of raising terradons in Itza and they are famed for it across the empire
- Stegadons are prevalent in Itza’s armies

- One of the Old Ones was called Xholankha, he taught one of the oldest Mage-Priests Chiccotta of Zlatlan, who destroyed the daemonic legions in the southlands by sacrificing himself.
- The Slann reawoke Old One wards that were scattered across areas of power. These included Lustria, the Southlands and along the islands circling the southern pole.
- The third generation of Slann found the cities of Tlaxtlan, Quetza and Zlatlan.
- At some point in the ancient past, the city of Zlatlan had strife with the dwarf stronghold of Karak Zorn.
- Ibn Jellaba of Araby treks through the desert into the Southlands and discovered the Lizardmen of Zlatlan, he manages to establish trade with them.
- The Lizardmen in Lustria are cut off from those in the Southlands.
- Chameleon Skinks are known to spawn now in Lustria and the Southlands.
- Cut off from the wisdom of the most venerable of the Slann Mage-Priests of Lustria, the Lizardmen of the Southlands have fallen prey to their baser, animal instincts and only the younger (in relative terms) Slann (4/5th generations) remaining to provide any guidance.
- The Slann have attempted to re-establish contact with their lost spawn but communcation is sporadic and erratic at best.
- In the southlands, few spawning pools in existence spawn less and less frequently and many of the warrior lizards such as Saurus do not rise to meaningful numbers. As a result, lizardman society here has begun to devolve.
- Without the numbers of Saurus, the Slann of the Southlands are forced to rely on skinks to defend them, and use the few Saurus which have spawned to train the skinks in the ways of war that are natural to them.
- The Slann of the Southlands see this change as the will of the Old Ones.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- In the Southlands the Lizardman city of Zlatlan is under far greater threat from the Skaven, as it is much closer to the heart of their under-empire
- The Cult of Sotek is particularly strong here, and Sotek is especially venerated
- Encounters with the skaven are frequent, and those they capture get thrown into the snake pits
- So far Sotek has protected Zlatlan from the skaven…
https://i.imgur.com/Og4cm9M.png Warhammer Realms - Lustria

- It is said that Sotek resides now in the Southlands, feeding endlessly on ratspawn

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- Itza is the First City, Xlanhuapec and Tlax followed soon after.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- The ruined temple-city of Tlax lies close to the Tarantula Coast, a stretch of coastline upon which seaborne invaders may land with relative ease. As a result of its location, only fifty miles or so inland, many intruders have come to Tlax. Very few, however, have left.
- Tlax, called with good reason the City of Ghosts, is quite literally haunted by the far distant past. It is as if the calamitous events of the Great Catastrophe were etched into the very air itself, to be replayed, over and over, at the alignment of particular constellations.
- At certain times of day or night, spectral forms battle one another for possession of the city - mighty, ghostly Saurus marching to war against hordes of leering Daemons.
- Those treasure hunters who have witnessed such sights have fled screaming into the jungle, their sanity shattered, most falling prey to Lustria's many deadly threats long before reaching the safety of the coast.
- Every year on midsummer's day, the Lizardmen enact a mighty ritual atop the ruined Great Pyramid of Inscriptions in the temple-city of Tlax. A delegation of Mage-Priests, one from each of the extant temple-cities, congregates in the 'Chamber of Words yet Unvoiced' at the pyramid's apex. At the ritual’s climax, the great square before the pyramid is filled with ranks of insubstantial figures, and the ruined city and its tumbledown temples appear pristine once more.
- The figures are the ancient defenders of Tlax, as they were before they marched out to face the Daemons at the height of the Great Catastrophe. Though the Mage-Priests cannot communicate with the ghosts, they bestow upon them as much power as they can spare, so that the defenders might hold off the forces of Chaos that destroyed the city in ancient times. And then the sun breaks over the horizon, and the ghosts fade away as the city returns to its ruined state once more.
- It is a matter of deep conjecture amongst the oldest of the Slann whether the ritual allows the defenders of Tlax to hold the city as long as they did, or whether the accumulation of power over the millennia may one day enable the past to be changed, and the temple-city to stand.
Warhammer Fantasy 7th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- The city of Tlax was founded under the same design as Itza

Tlaxtlan

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

- The third generation of Slann found the cities of Tlaxtlan, Quetza and Zlatlan.
- Mage-Priest Adohi-Tehga of Tlaxtlan (2nd generation Slaan) managed to repel the daemons in his city during the first war, before then ensuring that the grid of power did not collapse entirely, which shows that he must be of some considerable power.
- The great Slann Mage-Priest Adohi-Tehga resides in the Great Temple of Tlazcotl in Tlaxtlan.
- Tlaxtlan’s greatest pyramid is dedicated to the Old One Lord Tlazcotl.
- There are Blood Shrines to Sotek.
- In Tlaxtlan, there is the Blessed Pyramid of Tzunki, which is surrounded by blessed waters of life, as the Old One commanded.
- Lord Tepok of the Air, an Old One that was brother to Tlazcotl, is always honoured in Tlaxtlan.
- Old One Lord Quetli was a Warrior and Protector of the true way. Something within his shrine can envelope the city entirely in protection.
- In Tlaxtlan there are the Floating Gardens of Lost Xholankha.
Warhammer Fantasy 6th Edition Lizardman Army Book

- Another of the currently intact temple-cities is Tlaxtlan, the so-called City of the Moon. It is significant that the temple-city's moniker refers to only a single moon, rather than the pair of satellites that actually circle the world, for the city was constructed when only a single moon hung in the night sky above the world.
- The occupants of Tlaxtlan were once renowned across the Lizardmen realm as astromancers and prognosticators without peer. Their observations of the skies made for stunningly accurate predictions of future events. With the Great Catastrophe, the second moon came into being, composed of the pure stuff of Chaos, and their mastery was lost.
- The first human invaders to brave the Piranha Swamps around the Amaxon delta met with a grisly end. A Lizardman army from the City of the Moon ambushed the raiders as they picked their way through the swamps, for Lord Chuqa-xi had foreseen their coming. They were brought to Tlaxtlan, and lobotomised in a bizarre ritual surgery.
- To this day, lobotomised humans serve in the armies of Tlaxtlan, drooling and incontinent, yet unflinchingly obedient to the will of Lord Chuqa-xi.
- Tlaxtlan is laid out according to alignments of the moon Men call Mannslieb and the Lizardmen call the Silvered One.
- Tepok is greatly honoured in Tlaxtlan.
- Tlaxtlan's safety does not rest solely with its warrior cohorts. This mighty device (The Guardian) is capable of destroying the largest of foes with beams of arcane power.
- The Floating Gardens of Lost Xholankha slowly revolve in an eternal dance, they are found in Tlaxtlan.
- Tlaxtlan’s Spawn-Pools of the Sentinel have not produced a new spawning in over 2,000 years, yet recently the dark waters have begun to glimmer deep within.
