{{species link|Lizards|medium}} are a very resilient and distrustful [[species]]. They specialize in {{Specialization link|Meat production}} and enjoy {{Specialization link|Warmth}} due to their cold-blooded nature.  


They have a starter ability of gaining 10 {{rl|Tools}} upon [[Embarkation]]. Lizards has a base [[Resolve]] of 5, with a [[Break]] interval of 01:40 minutes. Their [[Resilience]] is listed as High, and their [[Demand]] index is Medium.

Their [[Starting Ability]] is to provide 10 {{rl|Tools}}. Lizards have a base [[Resolve]] of 5, with a [[Break]] interval of 01:40 minutes. Their [[Resilience]] is listed as High, while their first [[Resolve Threshold]] is 15. With a [[Decadence]] level of 7 and a [[Hunger Tolerance]] of 12, Lizards are one of the last to leave or die. They are a very versatile species that can be quickly pleased with species-specific [[Housing]].


== Consumption and Satisfaction ==
== Consumption and Satisfaction ==


Lizards need [[Complex Needs]] fulfilled to earn high [[Resolve]]. You will have to satisfy some of these [[Complex Needs]] if you want your Lizards to attain high [[Resolve]]. The more [[Complex Needs]] you fulfill, the higher their resolve will go, to a maximum of 50.
Like all [[species]], Lizards need to fulfill [[Complex Needs]] to start generating [[Reputation]]. The more [[Complex Needs]] you fulfill, the higher their Resolve will go, up to a maximum of 50. With the exception of the [[Housing Need]]s, every need fulfilled grants an additional effect, like {{rl|Jerky}}'s increased double production chance. With a [[Break]] interval of 100 seconds, Lizards require noticeably more goods to keep their [[Resolve]] up, compared to other species.

* Consider using [[Consumption Control]] on your [[Complex Food]] to prevent Lizards from eating all of it.
