Tagnikzur Zotreth (The Lizard Form : EXCLUSIVE)
By Sinestus
(Named in Drow) Remembering old kung-fu movies I used to watch, I recalled that there were many movies about various creature based martial arts, one such was ''The seven Deadly Forms" or something like that, thus I have decided to create them as I remember them.

The Lizard Form is based around performing maneuvers, which intimidate and unbalance one's opponent. When confronted with combat, the master will usually retreat up the nearest wall using one of his climbing techniques. Once he has taken good measure of his opponent, he will then strike when most advantageous.

Falling Technique (as per ninjas)

Lizard Technique - a modification of 'Light Climbing' and Karumi-jutsu. This can be used in combat, and almost always is. If barefoot, the Lizard master can move along any non-polished/rough surface/wall (marble, polished aluminum, etc. are not usable) using only his feet. The chance of success for this style is 69+5%/level (if the roll is failed, the master has the option of performing a backflip off the wall instead, this can be used to land on behind an opponent if they are within range), and rolls are made for each surface climbed. Thus, once the master climbs a surface successfully, they can return to it without problems for the rest of the combat. Unfortunately, this technique can only be used for short periods of time (one min/level max).
When fighting someone while on a wall, the Lizard master gains: +2 to strike and dodge, +1 damage, +3 on initiative and +5 (+50%) to maintain balance.
