[QUOTE="77IM, post: 7420471, member: 12377"] I just talked in kind of a gruff, gravelly voice. It's hard for me to really emote in that voice, which probably helped the impression somewhat. The thing that got me the most mileage was having a cornerstone of lizardfolk culture be, [I]"you are what you eat."[/I] My character constantly wanted to eat fallen foes, especially strong ones, to gain their strength. He thought humans and demi-humans were soft and pudgy because they ate so much bread. He explained that, should he fall in combat, he would be honored if his adventuring companions devoured his corpse. He couldn't understand the tradition of burying perfectly good meat, especially if it came from a skilled warrior, and he was totally horrified when we encountered the tribe that eats zombies. Of course I never explained to the other players about the "you are what you eat" thing, so they just thought I was playing some kind of insane cannibal. [/QUOTE]
