Baskilor

One of the choice mounts of the desert denizens of Sorenthis. A coldblooded Lizard that walks on two heavily muscled legs and fights with a protruding crest made of a keratin-like substance. Chosen for their superior survivability in deserts and ease of breeding, The Baskilor has become a staple of Sorenthian travel for many years.
Sadly, these creatures no longer exist in the wild, though their ancestral cousins have walked this plane for eons, even being historically used in a similar capacity during the Burning Sands Era, The Baskilors that exist today are have evolved to be the perfect pets and mounts.

Weapons & Armament

A kick from a Baskilor can easily break rib or sever limb so handlers are advised to be cautious. But the piece de resistance is the bashing crest on it's head.
