Karma Chameleon
Is there a chameleon-like humanoid (as in bipedal, not the 'type') race, or do I have to homebrew my own?
Similarly, what about an agile/climbing lizard race (ala Gecko, as opposed to the Iguana or Monitor-like Lizardfolk)?I apologise if I come across daft. I'm a bit like that. I also like a good argument, so please don't take offence if I'm somewhat...forthright.
Please be aware; when it comes to 5ed D&D, I own Core (1st printing) and SCAG only. All my opinions and rulings are based solely on those, unless otherwise stated. I reserve the right of ignorance of errata or any other source.

Re: Karma Chameleon
There´s a Lizardfolk subrace in MM3, Poisondusk IIRC, that has a few similariteis with the chameleon. Thri-keen as well.

Re: Karma Chameleon
I thought Thri-Keen were insectoid.

Re: Karma Chameleon
Your best bet for a chameleon-like human type is the Changeling from Eberron. Not exactly lizard-looking, but the concept is there.
Or, at least, I think it's there. I'm not sure if that's what you meant by chameleon-like.Spoiler

Re: Karma Chameleon
He probably means like an actual chameleon-person, like with the tongue and googly-eyes.

Re: Karma Chameleon
Maybe a human with some Vile Deformity feats from BoVD?

Re: Karma Chameleon
Well, my thinking led me to the changeling, since I thought he was looking for the "blending into one's surroundings," part of the chameleon, and not necessarily the physical appearance thereof.

Re: Karma Chameleon
A changeling could totally look like a bipedal chameleon. Or at least, a human in a convincing chameleon mask, which is all a humanoid chameleon would look like anyway.

Re: Karma Chameleon
Poison Dusk Lizardfolk from the MM3 get a bonus on hiding from chameleon skin, and I think they have a racial climb speed as well. They're small sized though, and have LA +1.

Re: Karma Chameleon
Looks like these Poison Dusk Lizardfolk are what I'm looking for.
I was after an agile, hidey type of lizardman, 'cos I've never really liked the tough, swimmy type of lizardman (just how I see lizardfolk as a rule).
MM3 you say? I'll have to look into picking up a cheap copy from somewhere (funds are rather limited at the moment).
Thanks guys!I apologise if I come across daft. I'm a bit like that. I also like a good argument, so please don't take offence if I'm somewhat...forthright.

Re: Karma Chameleon
If you want to get books on the cheap, look to Amazon. I've pretty much given up buying my books in the store, since Amazon has the books for at least 30% off.
