It has boobs and long hair."I don't know about all the "lizards need boobs so we can spot the gender" people, but in a pen and paper game, we usually describe them gender first, if applicable - "you see a slim human woman with long hair."So, I do claim that boobs on lizards are not needed to tell the gender, DM description already takes care of that. Boobs on lizards seems a purely aesthetic decision - namely, to add more female curves to the game's illustrations, or more eye candy for fantasy fans of the male persuasion.I'd rate boobs on lizards in the same category as chainmail bikinis.That said, I don't really care about the mammary glands on lizards, the main reason for my dislike of them is that they look ugly, have no tail, and would better serve their purpose (catering to Dragon fans) by using a half-dragon template, or by using real dragons.For all "exotic reptilian warrior race" themes, we already have lizardfolk, yuan-ti, and draconians.</blockquote>
