That's fine for a Large-sized Gator Man, but seems too heavy for a Medium-sized Gurrash.Regular lizard folk are almost as tall (6 to 7 foot) and only weigh 200-250 pounds. A 7 to 8 foot tall gurrash should weigh about 50% more, assuming similar proportions.Revised proposal...Gurrash   Advancement: By character class This reptilian humanoid has dark green scales and an alligator-like head, with prominent sharp teeth and slitted red eyes. The gurrash are a violent, warlike offshoot of the lizardfolk race.  Gurrash spend their time hunting and making war within the unforgiving  bayous they call home.Also known as "gator men",  gurrash were created  centuries ago by evil spellcasters merging  together regular lizardfolk  with alligators. They were intended to be warrior-slaves for an empire that is now long dead. A few gurrash escaped and started to breed in the swamps, eventually becoming the reptilian scourge they are today. Gurrash refuse to negotiate with strangers, preferring acts of  aggression. These lizardfolk consider themselves the mortal enemies of  shazaks, usually attacking them on sight. Gurrash will try to  exterminate or drive away any shazaks who live near their homeland. They  frequently war with other neighboring tribes, including other tribes of  gurrash, but put their hatred of shazak above mere territorial rivalry. Most gurrash worship demon lords, who sometimes grant gurrash tribes a  lizard king leader. Gurrash tribes who share the same demonic patron  usually have extremely good or bad relations - either cooperating very  closely, or seizing any chance to murder their "heretical" neighbors. Gurrash subsist on lizards, alligators, fish, and the occasional shazak.  Raiding parties of gurrash occasionally raid isolated humanoid  settlements for fresh meat to supplement their diet. A gurrash is usually 7 to 8 feet tall with dark green or brown scales.  Its tail is used for balance and is 3 to 4 feet long. A gurrash can weigh from 300 to 400 pounds.  Gurrash speak Abyssal and Draconic.*SNIP*Gator FolkThe gator folk are a brutish variety of gurrash lizardfolk. They are  throwbacks to the gurrash's original lineages, when evil sorcery created  the gurrash race by merging lizard folk with large alligators. Gator  folk grow slowly throughout their lives like alligators do, and ancient  gator folk can reach the size of ogres or small giants. Gator folk are even more primitive and vicious than regular gurrash, but  their culture is basically the same (including their hatred of shavak  and demon worship). Gurrash and gator folk recognize each other as kin,  and a gurrash tribe's relationship with a tribe of gator folk will be as  good (or bad) as those with another tribe of gurrash, and vica versa.  Gator folk tribes are usually ruled by clerics, who lead their people in  horrible sacrifices to demonic beings.  Gator folk usually advance by humanoid hit dice (see below) and use  crudely made greatswords as weapons instead of tridents. Those few gator  folk with character class levels will generally be in control of their  tribe. Gator folk have the following statistics, anything that is not  noted is the same as regular gurrash lizardfolk.  Attack: Claw +4 melee (1d4+2) or greatsword +5 melee (2d6+3/19-20) Full Attack:  2 claws +4 melee (1d4+2) and bite +2 melee (1d6+1) and tail  slap +2  melee (2d4+3); or greatsword +5 melee (2d6+3/19-20) and bite +2 melee   (1d6+1) and tail slap +2 melee (2d4+3) Advancement: 4-6 HD (Medium); 7-9 HD (Large)</blockquote>
