'''Vuulen''' (singular vuulek), also known as lizardpersons (or simply lizards), are a species of bipedal, scaled humanoids that visually resemble various reptilian species present on '''Earth'''. Being the first intelligent species humanity has encountered (beyond '''[[Plasmaman|plasmamen]]'''), vuulen are one of the most common non-human species present in '''Sol Interplanetary Coalition''' space. Having experienced a massive technological and cultural jump with the colonization of their primary homeworld, '''Sangris''', the vuulen now attempt to navigate their identities and lives as integration efforts see more and more individuals cast aside old values in favor of assimilation into human society.

Lizardpeople are a optional playable race. You can make a lizard character in the character panel, and change aspects of its appearance such as skin color, spines and antennae. Lizards attack with their claws to slash and hack people, though this does not deal any additional damage. They also tend to hiss when talking.
Lizardperson is an optional species that can be chosen for play in the character creation menu. Customization options include your scale color, eye color, horns, frills, snout, spine, bodily markings, and whether you have digitigrade legs (abnormal; must wear footwraps) or plantigrade legs (normal human legs).


Random names for lizardpeople are hypenated. They are generated by taking two names from a gender-specific list of lizard names.
Despite often being integrated into human culture, vuulen still see legal and social discrimination in the present day. Nanotrasen abuses this to pay them nearly half of what a human would receive. They are also not considered under a standard Asimov silicon lawset, meaning you will not receive the protection or benefits that silicon crew can provide. In fact, a malign human may be capable of exploiting your inferior position to inconvenience or threaten you. It is advised to be cautious in your interactions with humans if the AI is under an Asimov lawset as a result, especially if you are a member of security.

Note that as a lizard, an Asimov AI does not consider you human and is not obligated to listen to you. It will often respond lethally should they find you harming a human, however this also means the AI can allow you to put yourself into harm's way in a positive manner, such as opening an airlock exposed to space to save someone. Also, [[Captain|certain]] [[Head of Personnel|crew members]] will show you depths of racism previously reserved for the clown. But hey, special snowflake colors!
