I played a quiet lizard called Sink-in-Water during early 2016 sybil, I started my time on the server as a human but liked the idea of playing something more alien. Watching the other lizards was entertaining both the admin abuse and the drama but my character sat on the side lines as a engineer that would do their job then hang around the station following events and chilling with others in the bar. It was a pretty comfy period. I don't think there was anything too notable about how I played lizard; I tried to be professional when non-antag and would sabotage things when antag. The most I got involved in the lizard clique was sort of this stable friendly face that didn't get involved in the drama but would sometimes listen to people who were upset. Then bagil rose to popularity and I went over to another meme race, originally as 'Katherine' but I continued with quiet professionalism eventually moving on from tg for a bit before coming back in 2017 and trying something different.

Lizard is at the very least visually interesting and the non-human abuse you often get serves a underdog mentality. Personally I used it to get closer to others, but some take it in the other direction and use it to be aggressive. It comes with it's own kind of fun.

I've only played a lizard for the naming convention, namely hated-by-life, a lizard with all the negative quirks and positive quirks that did little (like spiritual before it was changed).

Easy escalation because racist idiots, funny names, and I like to run around barefoot in shorts. Also taking the 'weird food' quirk so that I have to eat garbage food in order to get anywhere.

Spiritual makes you happy to be in the presence of a Chaplain and spawns you with candles, ontop of the prayer buff

Are you getting the wrong end of the stick?

It's not a wolf in my profile picture, it's a dinosaur (T-Rex, AKA a 'lizard'.)

I care not for this fetish shit, I originally played lizards because it was something different.

A lizardperson, with a slender tail, has the born ability to maneuver said appendage. It is however circumstanced by various human ethics of which some will be mentioned here.A lizardperson may wag one's tail when in true sense of delight, uncertainty or awkwardness. It is considered perverted if one wags a tail to show superiority or to improve sexual appeal. It is extremely disapproved if a lizard raises much ado about being able to move one's tail.The exact motion of wagging should be rhythmical and controlled. overdoing this wagging will also be considered perverted. On specific highly orthodoxic stations, tail wagging is forbidden and punishable by death. On Nanotranse's stations, however, wagging a tail is still a liberty to all lizardpeople.However, should this liberty ever be adored or even worshipped, shall there be true consequences. A lizardperson should never overdo wagging a tail or even raise much attention with it, but rather mainly use it to give a common signal to human personnel.

When the stars align and I play I like the idea of a chainsmoking self hating lizard doctor. This came after my want g to use the name "Strips-the-Flesh" as a nod to Salts-the-Wound and being a surgeon felt appropriate.

Reminder that lizards actually have tiny mouths like yoshi and they don't look like crocs

The naming convention and to mix it up.



I try to avoid playing lizard with confrontational roles (sec) but sometimes I still do for the naming convention.

Generally though, I play lizard when I'm a doctor or engineer for name memes.

Meme names and underdog mentality. That's it.
