Hunting Lizard

Kashann Xeno Rider on a hunting lizard.^[1]

Hunting Lizards are large predatory reptiles that hunt in packs. They are native to the Imperial world Kashann.^[1][2]

They once posed a very real threat to the early human colonists of their world, due to their large size and a bite capable of tearing arms off, until they were successfully domesticated and bred in captivity. Over time the Hunting Lizards became a much-valued means of patrolling the wild expanses of Kashann and when its population grew large enough, the reptiles were used as mounts for the Rough Rider Regiments raised there, known as Kashann Xeno Riders. While they do not have the sheer pace of a horse, the Hunting Lizards' hides are as thick as flak armour and their large bulk offers their riders considerable protection in battle.^[1][2]
