Lizard, Subterranean

This four legged, 20-foot long reptile comes running out of the shadows, catching you by surprise.

Combat
Unlike their smaller cousins, subterranean lizards don‘t fight aggressively; instead they prefer to ambush and catch their prey by surprise.

A few species of subterranean lizards have long tongues which they use instead of a bite to grapple foes up to 20 feet away.

Description
Subterranean lizards dwell almost exclusively beneath the surface of Athas. They never leave their caves voluntarily, and some species are even albino. The fanner beasts of New Giustenal, for example, are a species of subterranean grazing lizard raised by the dray of that place.

With sucker pads on their feet, they are able to scurry along walls and ceilings as well as across the floor and use this fact to their advantage wherever possible.
