Green Lizard



Green Lizards are one of the species of. They are usually the first lizard the player may encounter, and appear across many regions. Characterised by their lack of mobility and bigger size in comparison to other lizards, they are hefty, durable, and strong.

Green Lizards have a 50% or 1/2 bite lethality rate.



Appearance
Green Lizards come in varying hues of green, ranging from lime to mint. They have black bodies which generally feature short, stubby spikes or are otherwise plain. They are large and chubby, and have a unique alligator-like gait. Unlike other lizard varieties, their heads are completely rectangular and have horns which curl downwards, as well as having curved teeth.

Combat
Fighting Green Lizards tends to be fairly easy on level ground, a hit to the face with can stun and flip them over, exposing their soft bodies for an easy hit with a. Evading their charge is also simple - the long, obvious wind-up gives ample time to prepare for a well-timed jump, backflipping or even just climbing onto higher ground. They are slow, making it hard for them to flee and thus leaving them open to further attack. However, they do have a very strong bite, and can be dangerous if faced when ill-equipped. They also possess the second-highest health of any lizard, and are capable of tanking many hits before dying - usually taking 5-10 spear hits to kill. After 3 hits they typically lose interest in pursuing prey and attempt to retreat to their den.

Stealth
Sneaking past Green Lizards is generally simple, as their line of sight often stays close to ground level. They tend to move in one direction continually, making it likely for them to bypass prey completely if they don't have reason to investigate its general area further - avoid jumping repeatedly or throwing objects in their presence if trying to avoid detection. However, they are not easily distracted once locked onto prey.

Evasion
Green Lizards are rather slow, and clumsy with their attacks, making it easy to jump over them during a charge or even outrun them in a straight line. However, their lack of mobility can also often be deceptive, as they make frequent use of warp dens to reach places seemingly inaccessible to them. When in doubt, it is safest to seek higher ground such as high ledges or poles. The easiest way to avoid them is to simply crawl underneath them through pipes, or climb around above them.

Charge Attack
Whilst most lizards can charge at the player, Green Lizards have a special, stronger charge attack, signalled by a windup during which they hiss, before lunging forwards, biting anything that's in the way. However, Green Lizards often perform this attack even if they are on lower ground compared to prey, or may even charge off a ledge, to miss. When they miss, it disorientates them for a brief moment, leaving the lizard vulnerable to a counter-attack. Green Lizards can charge much more frequently than other lizard types.

Mass
Green Lizards are the heaviest variety of lizard, making them immune to certain threats. However, this also comes at the cost of their ability to climb poles.

Taming
Green Lizards have the lowest taming difficulty, typically requiring 1-2 feedings.

Once tamed, they attempt to follow the player around and fight off threats. However, due to their high rivalry rating, they are very aggressive towards any other lizards, even other tamed lizards. In particular, they hate and other Green Lizards. They are a very loyal and durable lizard, and are very useful to tame despite their highly limited range due to their lack of mobility.

Variants & attributes
Like all other lizards, Green Lizards can differ greatly from one another. Possible colors and features can include:

Colors: Lime, Forest Green, Olive Green, Green-Yellow

Bodily Features: Spikes, Frills, Feathers

Note that not all lizards possess each of these features. For example, one lizard may be olive green with no spikes, while a neighboring lizard may be dark green with spikes on its tail. It's very difficult to find similar-patterned or similar-colored individuals.
