A Lizardman Lord (リザードマンロード, Rizādoman Rōdo?) is a level 82 monster that resides in the Labyrinth of the 74th Floor of Aincrad in Sword Art Online. It is capable of using Sword Skills, such as Fell Crescent. Upon defeat, a Lizardman Lord grants the player 8120 EXP and 1000 Cor.[1]
Appearance[]
A Lizardman Lord is a humanoid lizard-like creature with dark green (bluish in the anime) scales[2], a long tail, and glowing red eyes. Its mouth also has a number of thin fangs that can be found "lining its slender jaw." [2] It wears a set of armor consisting of a helmet and breast plate. It carries a scimitar in its right hand and a round shield on its left.
Description[]
Takes to a "lizardman's AI program," each Lizardman Lord observes a player's "fighting style." This allows it to change and improve its tactics for different players; it is unknown if it could 'acquire' new Swords Skill this way. Additionally, this means that no two Lizardman Lords are identical in terms of behavior. Even though a Lizardman Lord can learn, the Sword Skills it does have can be determined before its completion by the player it faces. [2]
While not visible externally, a Lizardman Lord's 'heart' is a "critical point" that could be attacked to deal additional damage. In addition to basic noises like roaring, a Lizardman Lord is capable of hissing "a laugh at" players it attacks. [2]
Chronology[]
Aincrad Arc[]
A Lizardman Lord appeared and engaged Kirito in combat when the latter was exploring the Labyrinth on the 74th Floor. However, the monster was ultimately defeated by Kirito's «Horizontal Square» when it used «Fell Crescent» on him.
While exploring the Labyrinth, some more Lizardman Lords appeared, although they were defeated by Klein and his guild, Fuurinkazan. After hearing screams from the boss room, Klein and his guild were cut off by a few more Lizardmen, which were easily defeated by them.[1]
Trivia[]
- A Lizardman Lord appears in the Aincrad Arc's opening scene, right between the two Demonic Servants, although Kirito kills it in one hit.
