    [​IMG]In update number 4 for the Divinity: Original Sin 2 Kickstarter we're told more about the lizards, one of the playable races in the game.

    Lizards are proud: proud to form the world's eldest empire, the world's grandest culture. An imperial dwarf might scoff when reading such grandiose descriptions, but deep down he'd know there is something undeniable about them.

    Legend has it that the Lizards were once even mightier still: descendants of dragons, with dragon blood running through their veins. Most don't buy these stories though, saying that the Lizards are simply trying to increase their already sensational reputation for political and military reasons.

    Be that as it may, the Lizards and their empire are a force to be reckoned with, even by the rapidly expanding Divine Order, to the latter's great frustration...​

    There is also more about the Lizard lore in the update. Furthermore they ask for your input on what kind of racial skills should be in the game. Here are a few of them:

    Thanks to your unlocking of the Racial Skills stretch goals, all playable species will now get unique skills. Today we're talking about the Lizards, so what unique skills could they have? If you have a good idea, do share it with us in the comments section! Nothing is set in stone yet on the Racial Skills and we'd love to hear from you.

    Here's a couple of ideas to get you going. But don't hold back on us now!

    Health Regeneration (Passive)
    Bask in the sun and recharge those battle-damaged batteries.

    Resist Poison (Passive)
    Not only a lizard's speech is riddled with acid, its blood is too. Good luck trying to knock one out with something as crude as cyanide.

    10% chance to fall asleep when chilled (Passive)
    Cold-bloods get sleepy in low temperatures. We see it happen at Larian all the time...

    Automatically hastened when warm/hot (Passive)
    Hand them a cup of coffee on the other hand...

    +1 Intelligence Bonus (Passive)
    No Larian tie-in here, but them lizards though! They're *real* smart!​

    And finally they mention that new tiers will be made available; one of them providing the opportunity to have your name in the game.
