Commentary & Description:

The Gila-Worms are a subservient race of the Reptiliads. Long ago conqured, they have become little more than slave troops. Gila-Worms are amphibian in nature and tend to fair poorly in may of the hot-dry climes favored by Reptiliads.

Relatively weak fighters, Gila-worms are typically armed with short stabbing swords and short spears. They are reasonably good archers both mounted and unmounted. Gila-worms are occasionally armored with leather but do often carry small shields.

Gila-worms are commonly found mounted. They are accomplished riders of several species of large lizards and have been observed using lance and bow from lizard-back. They are, in affect, the Reptiliad cavalry.

There are no known cases of heka-using Gila-worms.
