Homebrew Salamar Species Details
About: Often seen as aloof or uninterested to others, Salamar are incredibly clever lizard-like humanoids who excel in alchemy and biology. Though these skills have their uses in day-to-day life, the Salamar employ them to connect to their mystic origins and uncover the secrets of their past.
Salamar appear as diminutive lizard-folk, akin to bipedal geckos. They have smooth, rubbery skin, long tails, and large, round black eyes. Their bodies can have a broad range of natural color patterns and striping - some of these being distinctive of different tribes or family groups. They tend to move slowly and deliberately. Their facial expressions are often unreadable - causing many to believe that the curious race is aloof and disconnected from the day-to-day realities of Lawbrand.
