The Lizard Folk Empire spanned the north end of the southern, down along the eastern coast, and along the archipelago just inland. They didn't have a lot of cities, primarily living in smaller huts, and eschewing fields of crops, primarily due to their seasons. Their main farms were fish farms and other semi-feral animals. They lived a mostly precarious existence due to their natural lack of desire to build cities, only communities, meaning that the Vaun wiped out their farms, conquered their lands, and enslaved many of their peoples.
Their religion was primarily one belonging to a core tenant of the seasons. The Lizard Folk calendar is divided into four seasons, with the year beginning and ending with The Dreaming, when the Lizard Folk sleep the changing of the years. The Rebirth, when the Lizard Folk assess their fields and their homes, rebuilding everything and forgiving debts. The Sharing, when the Lizard Folk give thanks to the bounty of their world and their community. The Feasting, when the Lizard Folk put on weight and fat for the long Dreaming ahead. The exact dates of the Dreaming are incredibly important to the Lizard Folk societies, and therefore their whole religion was around the elements and the sacred geometry of the seasons.
The only major creations of Lizard Folk society, the things that left their mark on the land, was their temples. The temples of the Lizard Folk are almost entirely massive sun dials and solar calendars, making them incredibly massive examples of sacred geometry. It was the priests of the Lizard Folk that build the domes of the Vaun.
Faith and the Lizard Folk
The Lizard Folk do not get Faith the way that Humans and Roden do, nor do they get the direct communion of the Orcs. They however tend to commune with the divine directly, using their skill at summoning to directly speak to their divinities. They often practice Circination to allow their sacred spaces to bring about the divine, but *never* cage the divine.
