Not to be confused with the little lizards.
Sentient non-humans hired by Nanotrasen to fill in gaps in their Human workforce. Lizards are barred from serving command roles on Nanotrasen stations and are not protected by Asimov's laws of robotics.
History
Echoes of Humanity's dark distant past and their treatment of alien species remain well entrenched in modern day Human society. All alien species, including Lizardmen, have always been treated as second class citizens in Human society.
In 2550 Nanotrasen made history with the creation, and signing, of the Species Equality Act which paved the way for Lizardmen to be hired into low level jobs on-board Nanotrasen space stations, typically janitorial positions, as well as being the first corporation in existence to sign such a act. However in 2554 a amendment to the Species Equality Act, known as article 66, authorized the promotion and hiring of Lizardmen into most available station based roles.
This proved to be a significantly controversial amendment that was met with great disapproval, undeterred the change was pushed through by Nanotrasen. However the threat of the United Earth Government terminating Nanotrasen's top secret plasma mining contract forced the addition of article 67 which barred Lizardmen from assuming a command level role outside of extreme circumstances. Nanotrasen was quick to use their new Lizardmen employees to shore up gaps in their workforce.
The top secret Space Station 13 was no exception.
Gameplay
Lizardmen have green multicolored skin. They attack with their claws to slash and hack people, though this does not deal any additional damage. They tend to hiss when talking and have unique names (like Eats-The-Lemons).
Lizardmen are a optional playable race.
Note that as a lizard, the AI does not consider you human and is not obligated to listen to you. Also, certain crew members will show you depths of racism previously reserved for the clown. Centcom also maintains a strict "Human-Only" policy for Command Staff appointments. But hey, special snowflake colors!
