Saurians

Saurians, also known as Lizardmen, Lizardfolk, and other names, and by themselves as the Uxal (a name they share with their fellow Cold Bloods), are a humanoid race in Vosel. An exotic reptilian folk, they are rarely seen outside of the impenetrable jungles of the Old World.
Little is known of the Lizardmen in the present, though they have played a critical role in the history of Vosel, particularly in the Third Age and the Fifth Age.
== Biology ==
Lizardfolk are bipedal reptilian beings, generally larger and stronger than a human. Size variance between males and females is smaller than most mammalian species. Lizardfolk are omnivorous, though they strongly prefer meat. They are well-adapted to their harsh home: their eyes can see in the dark, and their tails make them excellent swimmers.
== Culture ==
The culture of lizardmen is very distinct from the individualistic societies that have developed troughout Vosel. As a whole, the culture of the Uxal is decidedly collectivist; they care little for the concept of private property, and hold the benefit of the many to be paramount over the benefit of the few.
== History ==
The Lizardfolk were among the first species to arise in the world, though their exact origin remains elusive. Many believe Soros was Uxal, though the Uxal themselves believe that Soros created their race. 
During the First Age, the Lizardmen ruled vast territories in Nivelor and Uxalor; the end of the Elemental War is considered by historians to represent the apex of their power.
As the other races began to seize further territories, though, the Lizardfolk began to recede, preferring to avoid direct confrontation. Nonetheless, many conflicts flared up between Lizardmen and the Warmbloods, especially when they began to threaten the homes of the Uxal.
During the Godfall, Saurian civilization became threatened following the sudden disappearance of Soros. Leaderless, they struggled for many long years against the Nameless One, and they were triumphant, though their numbers were greatly diminished.
