Homebrew Crocfolk Species Details
Crocfolk are hulking humanoid crocodiles that lurk in the harsh swamplands of the planet Sauria, a longstanding feud with the cruel and relentless lizardfolk who also reside in the humid and hostile atmospheres of the planet have led to diminished numbers in the crocfolks population, be it through the carnage of the lizardfolk's wrath or the small few intellectuals who have braved the mysteries of the astral planes in search of a planet similar to their own. Sauria is far out of reach of main civilization in the astral plane and not much is known about the planet or those who live on it, long since written off as too hostile for most races to survive on.
Not ones for books or the finer intellectual arcane arts the Crocfolk have evolved into huge brawny masses of muscle and teeth that thoroughly live with the "bigger is better" philosophy in their hearts as the largest, strongest, and most proficient in combat are always found to be leading their people. Technological advancements often come through scavenging the war-torn wastes for remnants and scraps that the more intellectually inclined lizardfolk leave behind.
