Description

Chicken Noodle Lizards are basically small flesh golems with altered abilities.  Contrary to popular belief, they are not made of noodles, but long, thin strips of cured chicken meat and the occasional scrap of tiny bone, the which constantly writhe in twisting patterns about themselves as they roughly form the shape of a small lizard.

Chicken Noodle Lizards are believed to have originated when a chicken thief hid in a local mage's workshop, breaking down the meat in manners that no butcher would recognize, in order to better hide his spoils from detection.  It is said, when the thief was spotted, mid-task, by the hard-working mage, he dumped the stripped meats into a nearby tureen over the hearth, one he had no way of knowing harbored the properties of a magical alchemy jug.  He stumbled backward as the wizard's eyes met his, knocking a book from the mantle down toward the fire.  The wizard fruitlessly leapt to catch the tome, which burst into flame and floated ashes down into the broth.
