Saurian

We Regulators gave you protection. We got you good stuff for cheap so you could sell it. You're a rich man because of our stock... and this is how you repay us? By singin' like a saurian to the Sentinels?

Saurians are small creatures that are brightly colored. They roam around in the grassy areas of Bastion.

Etymology and Anatomy

Saurians get their names from the word Saurian (A Creature of the reptilian sub order Sauria). Saurians are tiny creatures with sharp denticles in their mouths.

Saurians are crimson and blue creatures with a triangular head. They are bipedal and possess very short arms with sharp claws. Their tails are flat and bushy with bristles. Saurians have two eyes on either side of their head. Each eye glows a fluorescent cyan and green. But when looked from a side, they either look green or cyan. Their backs have several ridges.

The flat end of their tails and tips of heads can glow brightly, especially in the dark. Saurians can hiss. But they can also make a noise that resembles singing.
