List of reptiles and amphibians

Version 0.12: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

While most adventurers dream of engaging in thrilling battle with dragons, the many reptiles and amphibians of the Dungeon are still fierce foes for the aspiring hero. While they can't breathe fire, their bites are usually dangerous, and some have additional abilities as well.

Lizard Types

l Giant gecko- Nastier than giant newts, they are the most dangerous animals on D:1.

l Iguana- These ill-tempered reptiles pack a bite worth keeping clear of.

l Basilisk- Dreaded creatures of legend which petrify their prey with a single gaze.

l Komodo dragon- Oversized lizards whose putrid carrion diets give them sickening bites.

l Crocodile- Unimaginative biters which hang around the Lair.

l Alligator- These swamp-dwellers are capable of surprising speed, and have a bite nasty enough to make short work of the poorly defended.

t Baby alligator- Significantly less dangerous than the mama.

Turtle Types

t Snapping turtle- Found in the Shoals, these creatures bite from a distance and hide in their shells when injured badly.

t Alligator snapping turtle- A significantly deadlier version of the snapping turtle.

Amphibian Types

l Giant newt- One of the flimsiest opponents in the game, the only thing separating giant newts from rats is their ability to cling.

F Giant frog- Although fast, these oversized beasts are more often delicacies than dangers.

F Spiny frog- Their spikes are wickedly sharp, and the poison that laces them is no picnic either.

F Blink frog- Interdimensional croakers who would swarm and devour careless players if not for their incessant blinking. They're still plenty dangerous though.

Unique Amphibians

F Prince Ribbit- A man who was cursed to be a frog, and was also cursed to blink between dimensions? Regardless, he's got a vicious bite.

Retired Reptiles and Amphibians

F Giant toad- Almost identical to a giant frog.

l Gila monster- A large lizard with poisonous flesh.
