  1. [---WFRP 1e core pgs. 228-229---]
  2. Troglodytes are closely related to Lizardmen, whom they resemble in all but size, and for whom they often act as warriors and guards. Although they are rarer than Lizardmen, Troglodytes are greatly feared and are formidable opponents, often being employed as 'shock troops' by the
  3. Lizardmen. They are extremely stupid, and therefore do not rise to positions of leadership within Lizardmen communities. They have no appreciation of tactics in a battle, and are simply pointed
  4. at the enemy and told to kill. Frequently, they even fail to notice when an opponent is dead, mindlessly continuing to beat and rip a corpse for some time after it has ceased to put up any resistance. Troglodytes emit a nauseous stench which is repulsive to non-reptilians, and speak a dialect of the same sibilant tongue as Lizardmen.
  5. Physique: Troglodytes are over ten feet tall, but otherwise identical to Lizardmen. They are well-muscled with typically reptilian scaled heads and broad tails. Scale colours vary in the same way as the smaller Lizardmen, greens being the most common.
  6. Alignment: Neutral.
  7. Psychological Traits: Troglodytes are subject to stupidity, and when one kills an opponent, it must make an Intelligence test or fail to notice that its victim is dead; it will then continue to attack the corpse, testing on Intelligence every round and only stopping when a test is finally passed. Troglodytes also cause fear in living creatures under ten feet high.
  8. Special Rules: Troglodytes have tough skins which count as one point of armour all over their bodies. Their nauseating stench affects all non-reptilian creatures fighting them, giving their opponents a 10% penalty to WS. Troglodytes have Night Vision to a range of 30 yards.

  19. COLD ONES
  20. Cold Ones are the largest members of the li zard race. They are related to Lizardmen and Troglodytes, but are far more brutal and stupid than even the most stupid Troglodyte. Cold Ones can be ridden, and are used by Dark Elves, Amazons, Lizardmen and Slann as riding beasts. ← pg. 35

  24. Lizardmen and Troglodytes
  25. Lizardmen and Troglodytes fight as vassal troops in Slann armies, performing military service as a form of tribute. Not all Lizardmen are friendly to the Slann, and many live in restless
  26. subjugation. Lizardmen heroes can only be assigned as champions to Lizardmen or Troglodyte units. Independent Lizardmen heroes may only associate freely with Lizardman and Troglodyte units. Slann characters may associate with Lizardmen units, but not Troglodyte units. ← pg. 112
  27.

  30. [---WFB Core 3e pgs. 239---]
  31. Troglodytes are large relatives of Lizardmen and live among them deep below the world's mountains. They bear a similar relationship to Lizardmen as Ogres do to humans, being bigger, uglier, less intelligent and more brutal versions of their reptilian kin.
  32. The Lizardmen use Troglodytes as guards, warriors and slave labourers, allowing them to feed upon the corpses of the slain to sate their tremendous appetites. Troglodytes have horny, scaly hides and dense muscular flesh. They are therefore rather tough and extremely difficult to defeat in combat. To make matters even more problematic, Troglodytes smell very badly indeed.
  33. This noisome odour does not affect other reptilians, but is sickenly offensive to other creatures. Troglodytes have only a rudimentary culture, and depend for most of their weapons and equipment on the Lizardmen with whom they live.
  34. Physique. Troglodytes are very similar in appearance to Lizardmen but larger, broader and even more primitive looking. A fully-grown Troglodyte stands well over ten feet tall. Their hides can be brown or green, and occasional individuals may be blue, red, white or some other exotic shade.
  35. There are no Troglodyte wizards. ← Giant Races pg. 239
