<b>The Divers Genitaliae of the Lizard-Folk</b> (full title, <i>The Divers Genitaliae of the Lizard-Folk; all Provocative and Discursive Notes and Diagrammes Left Compleat and Unexpurgated, with Novel Engravings of a both Titillating and Educational Nature</i></b> is a biological codex traditionally attributed to [[First Cosmopolitan Age]] scholar [[Reptilicus]], although modern philologists generally believe that it was written by a distinct author to whom they refer as "[[Pseudo-Reptilicus]]." | <b>The Divers Genitaliae of the Lizard-Folk</b> (full title, <i>The Divers Genitaliae of the Lizard-Folk; all Provocative and Discursive Notes and Diagrammes Left Compleat and Unexpurgated, with Novel Engravings of a both Titillating and Educational Nature</i></b> is a biological codex traditionally attributed to [[First Cosmopolitan Age]] scholar [[Reptilicus]], although modern philologists generally believe that it was written by a distinct author to whom they refer as "[[Pseudo-Reptilicus]]." | ||
The codex was for many years treated as the authoritative source for mammalian [[humanoids]] on the [[Lizard People]] of the Hinter-fens. Although the document contains a great deal of useful and accurate medical and anthropological information about the Lizardfolk, its rather prurient editorial style and many depictions of the lizardkin mating process earned it a reputation as [[pornography]] among later, more conservative scholars. In [[magical]] and [[clerical libraries]] the book was typically relegated to a restricted section, granting it an almost mythical status as an erotic desideratum among young [[adepts]] and [[acolytes]]. | The codex was for many years treated as the authoritative source for mammalian [[humanoids]] on the [[Lizard People]] of the Hinter-fens.
