Magical Lore (Magical Creatures)

• QL 1: Wolf lizards are one of the classic chimeras. People have been creating them for millennia, but still nobody can create a wolf-lizard that can procreate.
• QL 2: the wolf-lizard form is based on the image of a legendary monster that lived somewhere between Chorhop and Mengbilla. They are very susceptible to the cold and can survive exposure to the cold only for a few minutes.
• QL 3+: Wolf-lizards can hide well in green surroundings, as their scales make them very difficult to see.

Special Rules

*) Concealment: The color of their scales allows wolf-lizards to hide in appropriate surroundings (jungles, swamps). Perception (Notice Ambush, Perceive) checks to find them suffer a penalty of 2.

Extremely Susceptible to Cold: they suffer 1 DP (ignoring PRO) per CR when exposed to temperatures colder than 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

Pack: Wolf lizards attacking the same opponent receive +1 AT (no more than +2 AT) per wolf lizard beyond the first.

Chimera Rules: Wolf lizards use the general chimera rules.
