The previous night gave you the chance to put your heads together to recall what you could about Lizardfolk. Hildar's book learning comes in handy, as always, but a couple of other members of the group recall a couple more salient facts or correct mistaken notions that get raised.
1. Historians believe the Lizardfolk were once the dominant race of the world, with continent-spanning empires. However, their nations crumbled in times now mostly forgotten.
2. On the continent of Terrinoth, Lizardfolk are largely extinct. Pockets of them still persist in places like the Blackwing Swamp, where they tend to avoid contact with outsiders.
3. They live largely as nomadic hunter–gatherers, capturing game in traps, taking down bigger animals in organized hunts, and fishing.
4. They are suspicious of outsiders (and usually meet strangers with violence), but they have been known to trade swamp products (such as meat) for crafted goods from the cities (including alcohol, medical supplies, or items made from steel, glass, and other materials unavailable in raw form).
5. They are cold-blooded, and therefore vulnerable to cold.
6. Their tribes are led by a chief, with spiritual life led by a shaman. Other tribe members fight, scout, hunt, and gather as needs demand.
7. Lizardfolk lay eggs in broods that take several weeks to hatch. They are especially dangerous if their eggs are in danger.
8. They have had little contact with Catfolk or Orcs, so they are likely to be more open to dealing with them than with Humans, Elves, Dwarves, or Gnomes.
OOC:
#4 especially might have been handy to know before you left civilization, so I'm cool with a Story Point flip and personal funds being used to buy some sort of trade good if you wish (that is, spending personal silver rather than your per diem). We can abstract it to 1 gold (10 silver) per case of something.
