History of the Lizardfolk

With the creation of the Savage Isles, many species were created as well. One of these species were the lizardfolk who were distinctly unsuited to life on the Savage Isles.

When the lizardfolk found the Inkwater Marsh and saw that it was uninhabited, they quickly settled down. From here they fought the local wildlife and the undead that had already multiplied to extreme levels. From this, they eventually managed to settle down and make a living for themselves.

When the lizardfolk found the area where Chessenta now lies they discovered that undead would appear at seemingly random, as if summoned out of thin air. The leader of the expedition to this area quickly decided that this would be a good place to train new hunters against weaker undead and serve to limit the number of undead in the marshes.

Although it took almost two decades for the news about the great evil to reach Chessenta, once it did the lizardfolk were quick to volunteer for action. However, the Holy Order of Druids were fiercely against this due to them perceiving the lizardfolk as against the world trees.

Exactly 100 years after the burial of the great evil, a portal was discovered in the Inkwater Marsh. To many, this was seen as a sign, with some taking it as evil and others as a sign of hope. To the lizardfolk, it was seen as a ray of hope as they were still struggling to recover after their battle with the great evil.

With the help of the qlippoth, the lizardfolk were able to turn the war against the undead. The qlippoth took the front line and increasingly were able to first push back, then eradicate the undead.

After the discovery many lizardfolk leaders were worried about what to do and even the validity of the report. It was only after two more similar reports that they finally began acting, however, since they were greatly outnumbered due to how many portals now existed the lizardfolk had to do so without getting noticed. When the report came, the Holy Order of Druids were quick to answer.

With the situation in the Inkwater Marshes going better by the year due to the help from the Holy Order of Druids, many were hopeful that the invasion of qlippoths would soon disappear. This hope was soon crushed when qlippoth lords, towering beings from their realm entered E'ath.

When a scouting party returned with information regarding the qlippoth runestones the news was welcomed. While some did not believe the news, there was undeniably one less qlippoth lord on the frontlines. With this new ray of hope many missions were launched, and finally, after almost 50 years a second runestone was found and destroyed, setting the stage for the next part of the war.

Although the qlippoth were removed from the Inkwater Marsh, the lizardfolk were not allowed to rest. The undead had once again soared in numbers during the war and the corruption of the qlippoth was still visible. While the Holy Order of Druids felt a need to help, they were forced elsewhere as they were losing battles all around E'ath due to the strain the war had put on them. Despite this they stayed long enough to construct The Obsidian Wall

After the death of Zemos, many of the lizardfolk mourned. Of the short-lived races, their lands were the closest to his final resting place. Despite this, they had to keep fighting the undead and they did not have much time to help build his crypt.   When the corruption began spreading, however, they were on the frontlines to see if they could do anything. When they were unable to help, they were still the first to formulate plans for what to do if the corruption kept spreading.
