I was wondering, not being the best on fluff, are lizardmen toxic? If an imperial trooper would eat one, would he die?
As far as I know, the answer is no. But to be fair, the only instance that I have read of when a saurus or skink gets eaten is when one gets eaten by a clan pestilence skaven, and they could probably deal with most any toxin.
lol i'd laugh if an empire spearmen who was eating lunch suddenly keeled over with a scale hanging out of his mouth!!!!
Hahaha, that would be funny. But there's no fluff about a strain of lizardmen which are toxic to the touch, like arrow frogs?
The skinks use toxins in the blowpipes or javelins but i think they take this out of plants and stuf,i think the ones that would be toxic would be the salamanders and the jungle swarms
Hi everybody, first post for me - just had to add my 2 bits... The chameleon skink models have poison dart frogs attached to them on which they rub the blowpipe darts before shooting them. I suspect that poison dart frogs must form an integral part of lizardman society living in great amounts in the temple cities. I don't think lizardmen themselves are poisonous, after all you can eat a monitor lizard, gecko or crocodile if you want to (don't taste particularly good without a LOT of seasoning though). They're probably not good eating anyway, mostly sinew and muscle under the scaly skin... Cold Ones however - different story! Can anyone here smell the barbecue?
There is a comic strip where a Skink who is USELESS at EVERYTHING finally goes up to the Slann to find his purpose. After weeks of awaiting the Slanns response he tells the Skink that it's his fate to kill off an entire choas warband. Lo and behold a warband appears and the Skink charges in by himself thinking he is destined to win. He's immediately killed and eaten. The Skink however was toxic and killed off the chaos warband. Fulfilling his role in the Great Plans of the Old Ones
i like the idea of the skink takin the enemy with him is there a link to this i would love to see it, anyway while i think (with a lot of seasoning) they may tast nice, i dont want to find out if there poisinous the hard way. i say we draw straws and one of us eats one and if we dont hear back we will draw the conclusion. *draws straw from hat* "yay a long one"
I was actually told the tale by a friend who owns the graphic novel, it's got lots of little stories from around the warhammer world. I'll post the name as soon as I get it
