An old school B/X D&D style character class description of the Lizz, a lizard class. Art by Vaughn Bode, class based on his lizards. Here's the text. Tables probably won't format well.
LIZZ
You a righteous one. You a boss. You a lizard.
RESTRICTIONS
Your Prime Requisite is spunk, but that don’t matter. You got all the juice. You fight like a Thief and top out at level 7. You can use little bitty weapons like daggers, short swords, and little bows. You can wear armor what was made or modified to fit ya, but you ain’t no good at it and when you gets hit with a 20 or you rolls a 1 it falls off. You gots a 3 in 6 shot at makin’ any magic doohickie do its thing but if ya rolls a 6 something real bad gonna go down, see?
SPECIAL ABILITIES
Little: You ain’t gonna admit, but you are a wee thing and folks has trouble catchin’ you. Anybody what’s human size or bigger gots a fat -2 to all attack rolls against you.
Lizard Luck: Sometimes the crazy universe has a heart an’ smiles luck down on you like sweet rain. If things go south, you can petition the big ole ‘verse howevers you like and if you makes yer savin’ throw vs. Spells somethin’ real good gonna go down. ‘Course… if you was to fail the save real bad… well, the ‘verse ain’t gonna do you no good at all.
Honey Magnet: You a boss in the dungeons, but you also a boss with the honeys. When you see a lovely honey you can woo her (or him) with witty witticisms. Roll a d20 and if you gets a fat 20 then she’s all into you like you done cast a charm person spell on her. But if you blows the roll she ain’t gonna hear no more of it.

Ran a #BX #DnD game some years ago and made this class for it based on #VaughnBode lizards, with his art. Fun! Low XP, like a thief, with little abilities and a lot of attitude. This one is for that Venn diagram of folks into B/X and Bode at the same time. Salute, ya cabbages! #OSR #lizard
