Troglodyte

The Troglodytes are a crude, repulsive race of reptile-fish hybrids who live in human cities, mostly condensed in slums, docks, and industrial districts. They are notorious for their incredibly boorish, filthy, and aggressive behavior, acting like absolute pigs. They spend their free time heavily drinking, causing chaotic bar brawls, damaging property, and crudely harassing local human citizens. Despite their constant debauchery and disgusting manners, city authorities and businesses tolerate their presence solely because they provide an endless supply of dirt-cheap, highly resilient physical labor. They are completely mercenary by nature, possessing no loyalty to anyone; they work exclusively for whoever pays them the most coin.

Anatomy & Appearance: Based on the visual from Troglodyte.jpeg, their bodies are heavily mutated, grotesque, and asymmetric. They have a hunched, yellowish-brown torso with a bloated belly, often covered in rough scars. Their limbs suffer from severe hypertrophy-one arm or leg might be massively muscular and swollen while the other is misshapen. Their hands and feet are clawed and webbed, often missing fingers due to genetic stagnation or workplace accidents. They possess a stubby, vestigial, frog-like tail root at the base of their spine.

Their heads are perhaps the most terrifying part: a bulbous, featureless, sickening green or mossy-colored upper skull with no visible eyes, sitting right above a cavernous, massive mouth. This wide, circular maw is lined with jagged, needle-like teeth and is large enough to swallow a human head completely. Inside this mouth rests an incredibly muscular, highly mobile, and prehensile tongue that can expand to the thickness of a human thigh, snapping out with lightning speed to grab food, alcohol, or targets of their lust.

Genital Physiology (NSFW): As reptilian hybrids, Troglodytes possess a unique, highly aggressive reproductive anatomy. Their members are intensely ribbed, covered in leathery, scale-like ridges typical of reptiles. They are exceptionally well-endowed, with a minimum length starting at 25cm (approx. 10 inches), though most specimens are significantly larger. Combined with their lack of inhibition and constant intoxication, they frequently use their size to intimidate or crudely proposition humans in dark alleys.

Attire & Hygiene: They completely lack any sense of shame or decency. They do not wear proper clothes, instead wrapping themselves in foul-smelling, stained rags, tattered burlap sacks, or scraps of leather tied with ropes. They are perpetually covered in grease, slime, and smell heavily of cheap hooch and stagnant swamp water.
