Editing Coatl (Warhammer Fantasy) (section)

==The Revamped Legend==
Coatl wander the jungles of [[Lustria]], surrounded by a massive storm of wind and magic. Their very presence shifts the landscape naturally, rearranging the jungle as if nothing had happened and the landscape has always looked that way which makes Lustria almost impossible to map with trails or roads. Lizardmen often wait to ambush invaders until after a Coatl sends them into disarray.

Coatls are physically a serpent-like dragon with feathery wings instead of arms and legs. Small Coatls are almost impossible to find, as they do not spend time attacking enemies of Lustria until they reach a large size.

Coatls are considered manifestations of [[Warhammer_Fantasy_Gods#Lizardmen|Tepok]], Lizardmen god of air, not only by [[Lizardmen#Skinks|Skinks]] but by the scholars of all races. Coatls often seem to protect Lizardmen holy sites, but are not considered Lizardmen themselves. Skinks pray to Tepok for their aid, but ultimately the Coatl will either show up to defend against invaders or not.

Despite the humans of Lustria being (depending on what era of fluff) slaves or prey at worst, annoying and barely tolerated neighbors at best, the Coatl is below them on the food chain. For all the reverance given by Skinks, [[Pygmies (Warhammer Fantasy)|Pygmies]] prey on them as a rare delicacy that can feed a village. The [[Amazons#Warhammer|Amazons]] use Coatl feathers ceremonially and in clothing, but do not hunt them and instead obtain them from Pygmies.
