Habitat: Normally found near underground rivers and lakes, the Nagyr lizard is renowned for it's speed on both land and in water. Although they can fully survive on land, these creatures will more than likely be found in the water. Often, they will lie deep underwater so that predators of any kind can't find them. However, they can't breathe in water forever, so this only lasts for a couple of breaks at most before they are required to resurface for another few breaks. During the hotter seasons, this creature will rarely leave the water. Instead, they will bask in the shallows and swim near the surface in the deep.

Lifespan and Development: Nagyr are hatched from large eggs, new-born being around the size of a small dog. Within the space of a few months they then start growing, and after about half a year reach an average height of three meters, with a length of around five to six meters. At this point they have also developed a good speed and strength, making them tamable and ready to ride. They will continue to grow ever so slightly, as well as increase in speed and strength with the right training and diet. This is the biggest most will grow.

Diet: These big lizards feed on smaller animals like bats and rodents, as well as any fish they find in the water. They need to be fed plenty of meat to survive, as well as grow strong and fast enough to be useful as a mount.

Temperament: In the wild, these creatures can be very territorial. Any person or animal going near their portion of river or lake will see the creatures gaze watching very carefully. One step too close and it will charge at immense speeds of around 40 mph. With rows of sharp teeth, a heavy tail and claws, the creature will only stop pursuing if the person is killed or leaves the immediate vicinity of the body of water the creature considers its own. When tamed, these creatures are much more friendly towards people, but are as territorial - this time of their rider. If their rider is at risk, nothing will stop this animal from protecting them.

Abilities: Nagyr Lizards have incredible swimming powers to match their running speeds. On average they reach speeds of 40 mph on land and even faster at around 50 mph in water. This is why they are used as mounts, as this movement and power make them incredibly dangerous to enemies and useful to their riders. As well as this, their brute strength makes them a force to be reckoned with.
