Pink Lizard



The Pink Lizard (also referred to as Magenta or Purple Lizard) is one of the species of lizard. They are one of the first lizards the player will see in the game, and likely the first variety encountered that can climb poles. They are found mostly throughout the early-game, but make a few rare appearances in later areas.

Pink lizards have a 33.3% or 1/3 bite lethality rate.

Appearance
Pink lizards come in a very wide range of colours, from fuchsias to purples. They have black bodies that are usually plain or feature small frills.

Combat
Whilst not very durable, pink lizards make up for it with speed in close quarters. Unlike green lizards, getting near an uninjured pink lizard usually results in them instantly lashing out, and therefore caution must be taken when getting close to stab them - using a rock to stun and flip them before doing so is advised. Pink lizards usually retreat after 2 or 3 spears, and typically die after 4.

Stealth
Pink lizards have average vision, and do not usually look up above ground level unless they are climbing poles or hear something and decide to investigate the source, making stealth an effective choice against them. Throwing a rock to lure them away is typically more than sufficient to avoid them.

Evasion
Pink lizards aren't the fastest and can be outran on ground, but they do have degree of mobility. Particularly, they can be quite fast on poles, meaning that they have an advantage in long vertical rooms, letting them close the gap considerably.

Abilities & behavior
Pink lizards do not have any unique or exceptional abilities, rather serving as an introduction to lizards' vertical mobility.

Pole Climbing
Like all lizards except green, pink lizards can climb up poles.

Taming
Pink lizards are easy to tame, typically requiring 1-3 Scavengers or Squidcadas.

Pink lizards, whilst loyal and unlikely to get into unnecessary fights, are not very powerful or durable, and for the most part are incapable of reaching the gates into different regions to boot, making them poor picks for long-term companionship.

Variants & attributes
Pink lizards can come in a whole rainbow of colors. Anything from dark purple, to light pink to red!

Trivia

 * Pink lizards have some of the widest color variation of any lizard.
 * Pink lizards were designed to be the "average" lizard, not being particularly strong, durable, fast or good at climbing, nor possessing any special abilities.
 * However, they do have the slowest base swimming speed of all lizards.
