The Saurus Oldblood's are amongst the oldest and most powerful warriors that is still living with the Lizardmen Empire of Lustria today, ancient beings who have been alive for several thousand years. Though slow to react, these mighty reptilian warriors are not dull-witted or simple, quite the contrary, they know just about everything there is to know about fighting, and often care little for anything lese. Since it has never been known for a Saurus to die of old age, the longer a Saurus lives, the tougher and more ferocious he becomes. Their scales become thicker and harder, and their sheer presence encourages the younger Lizardmen to greater acts of savagry.[2a]
