These reptiles may be an ancestral dragon type or an offshoot of a common ancestor. In any case these creatures resemble red dragons, are sometimes called “false dragons,” and the latter seem to avoid confrontation with fire lizards. They are slow-moving creatures and often (50%) sleep for long periods. They are found in subterranean lairs, coming forth every fortnight or so to hunt. As shiny things attract them, fire lizards collect metals and gems in their den. There is a 10% chance that the lair will contain 1-4 eggs (market value 5,000 gold pieces each), but the fire lizard does not otherwise care for its young which depart after hatching.
