How to Play the Lizard in Dungeons & Dragons (Spider-Man Villain Build for D&D 5e)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 июл 2024
- Today we have a build for Dr. Curt Conners, also known as the Lizard in Dungeons & Dragons. Turning into a monster is pretty useful against Spider-man, and it's pretty useful in D&D 5e as well!

Makes sense not to start with a lizardfolk as the character is a man that turns into a lizard-thing. Which means you could start with lizardfolk when using Mark Zuckerberg as he uses powers to look like a human-thing.
Can we refrain from calling Jewish people lizards, thanks
@@Americanbadashh don’t worry it’s not an antisemitic joke it’s just bullying of a specific person for their appearance (he deserves it don’t worry)
I guess he won’t be making weapons and armor out of Spider-Man’s skin and bones.
@@Americanbadashh Had no clue of his religion. Since the 90s there have been jokes that celebrities and government workers are just space lizards that control the world behind the scenes. Zuckerberg is a common target for that joke as there are clips of him not acting like a normal human would.
@@Americanbadashh what? He is lizardman who happens to be Jew
Can't believe that Tulok says the "Change Appearance" part of Alter Self is out of character, when it gives a non-resource version of becoming a lizard. One line of the "Change Appearance" section of Alter Self is "You can make yourself appear as a member of another race." Lizardfolk is a thing! (Also Kobold and Dragonborn, but you'll probably go Lizardfolk.)
I always love the jokes Tulok puts into these.
"He's also a father figure to Peter Parker, wait oh no oh no. Something horrible is gonna happen to him isn't it?"
Yep! Being a father figure to Peter Parker is obviously a gateway to a life of crime. Or something similar.
I was expecting some artificer alchemist levels but druid does take care of that pretty well and I always like to see the rare barbarian caster multiclass.
MtG actually has a race of rhino-people called Rhox, so it’s not impossible we’d get a D&D conversion in the future.
Reflavor Loxodon race. It's what I would do. Trade out the trunk for say a gore/horn attack from the minotaur or satyr. And mostly you have the race.
Hmm, would they have subraces?
@@andrewdowns3673 not that I'm aware of. Rhox are Rhox
Giff could be something to tinker with
@@xwolphen true. I'd forgot about them. Lol opps
That shot of the lizard sliding into the sewer at 7:49 really caught me off guard
Herpetology is Greek for ‘reptile studies’ but it traditionally also includes frogs and toads. Herpeto- as a stem is related to Latin serpens meaning snake, both of which ultimately mean ‘things that crawl’. That’s an actual herpetology fact as in a fact about herpetology
Earth elemental would technically be the most in-character option because you would just be a big rock lizard.
You know I wasn't expecting the lizard facts but I quite enjoyed the lizard facts.
6:46 Though I feel it is worth saying, Komodo dragons are venomous. So don’t get bit!
For the record, Reptilia is my favorite opening track you've used.
Druidic as complicated science jargon is a great way to play it.
Actually think Rhino is a Goliath in a suit, so either a Totem Warrior Barbarian or that new Path of the Juggernaut with multiclass into Rune Knight Fighter or the UA Brute.
Definitely an armorer with Charger and some way of using Crusher. Dude's covered in a metal suit
I would make him a Mountain Dwarf Battlerager Barbarian/Armorer Artificer
This is more just live reacting for the algos than actual nitpicking but I'm so torn between "barbarian first feels more narratively accurate" and "druid first gives you more accurate saving throw proficiencies" but also who really cares. I'm barely into the video and already this is such a high tier build. You're so dang great 🦎🦎🦎🦎
I love when Tulok swears. It’s like listening to your friend talk about something they’re REALLY passionate about and you get to enjoy it with them.
The Komodo dragon is actually a venomous lizard.
When it bites its prey it chews the Venom into its bloodstream.
Along with the Gila monster and Mexican beaded lizard the Komodo dragon shares in spot as one of the three venomous lizards that can take down a human being!
There are a few other venomous lizards that were discovered however their venom is extremely mild not even being able to muster up the damage anywhere near an ant bite!
Id love to see the Vulture next
Picking Reptilia as the intro song was outta pocket tulok
Oh yes! One of my favorite villains for my birthday! Amazing, thank you!
Makes for ta great villain build. Heck turning into an elemental even works if you re-flavor it as some kinda lizard.
Path of the Beast tail deals piercing damage, not bludgeoning, but I only know that because I was working on a beast barbarian build literally yesterday. Honestly, bludgeoning does make more sense.
But on the other hand, you can give your barbarian a thagomizer!
@@Technodreamer I've always thought of it more like a scorpion tail, but a thagomizer? Real strong choice.
If you don't use important roll hair man's homebrew its not accurate enough but when you use custom lineage you're wrong too, some people will never be happy. You know who is always happy? Lizards. In this essay I will-
As a person with a bachelors degree in zoology, I very much appreciate the herpetology facts
Funnily enough, there was a toyline called Marvel Shapeshifters where The Lizard gained the ability to transform into an alligator. So even taking it at face value, wild shaping into a normal crocodilian is technically fully in-character.
If Tulok ever did another of those stat builds like "getting high". Might I suggest "you & what army" a build that focuses on maximum (by numbers) pets/minions/allies build. Curious how broken that can become, if stacked right.
I was expecting to see some Artificer in this, but was genuinely surprised by the outcome and I love it.
My lizard brain made me like the video immediatly.
Hope we get this rhino race stat block in a future homebrew video
Nice build
Druid barbarian is really cool
Omeprazole once a day fixes my acid reflux. I had to get it prescribed to get the 40 mg I needed, but man, it helps SO MUCH. Ask your doctor about it.
The Strokes intro, nice.
Counter build: Vooman Wizard with Hybrid Were-Crocodile form. Though granted, it's not gonna be AL approved and most DM's will likely want further restrictions because this can be heinous if unchecked.
(Hybrid Were form is a homebrew thing where the person can transform into a form that is BPS resistant to non-silvered weapons, for 1 x CON mod minutes, they also suffer from the Bloodlust Feature [under half health make Wisdom save or attack nearest creature,] as many times as CON mod per every 48 hours)
I have a request for a build please. Booker Dewitt from Bioshock Infinite. My guess would be Abjuration Wizard for the regenerating shield plus artillerist artificer for guns. Love the content as always. Keep it up!
While custom lineage makes sense, and I know that lizardfolk are basically Lizard as a lineage, i feel that a strong case can be made for a "mildly reskinned" Yuan-ti.
I was expecting lizardfolk alchemist artificer and I'm pleasantly surprised
Thanks for the Komodo dragon fact. I hate unknowingly spreading urban legends. Also, neat build!
I would like to offer for a future build: Colin Robinson from What We Do In the Shadows
Have you considered making a Sunday show or for your patreon followers videos detailing which D&D race each character would be instead of human? I am sorry for the frustration you feel and do not mean this as a way to give into demand, so much as a thought experiment looking at a group of characters, (the Sunset gang of Kingdom Hearts, Team RWBY, etc), and then divining D&D races which thematically would fit the characters. Because you’ve done this with certain characters like Marluxia being a reborn, but I wondered if this could solve this problem since it seems consistent for you.
So many lizard facts!
Interested to see how this changes if you do a leatherhead from tmnt build
Lizardfolk and a lot more Barbarian levels
sweet Jekyll n Hyde build!
Hey Tulok! Love the videos. I'm not sure where I should submit a suggestion, but I'd love to see a Dune build. One of the following characters, your pick! (Not Paul.)
Lady Jessica Atreides, Bene Gesserit witch! (probably who I'd pick if I had my druthers)
Thufir Hawat, mentat and master of assassins!
Gurney Halleck, war master for House Atreides!
Duncan Idaho, Ginaz swordmaster!
I'm sure someone has already requested these, so add my vote to the pile (or ignore at your pleasure). Thanks and keep up the great work!
Patrick
Reminds me of my pension for Brainy Brutes or Smart Muscle characters, Rhinox from Transformers, Panthro from Thundercats, and Winston from Overwatch in all of these cases Artificer is impeccable maybe throw in Knowledge Cleric for sage advice...and skills
Feels like wisdom should be lower and dexterity should be higher. I mean Connors decided to test lizard dna on himself! And the lizard is one of spider man’s most dexterous villains!
The only way this video could be better is if Tulok was a lizard
He might be. He can’t tell us if he is, you know.
Would love to see a video about how to play a character (mamodo/demon) from Zatch Bell/ Konjiki no Gash!!
Can i get a list of the shows/movies used as example clips in this build? I recongnize Spectacular Spiderman's artsyle but not many of the others I especially want to see the ones that has miles in them.
I'm surprised Tulok didn't go with shifter for them. Gets him away from human and custom lineage and seems to really fit.
Hooray my favorite Spiderman villain .
Not sure how you could do it, but you should Kefka from Final Fantasy 6. Would be an interesting build.
Custom lineage artificer!..beast barbarian perhaps?
I had a lot of problems with reflux so I had it checked and they found I had a hiatus hernia. Dunno if its thr same in the states where you are.
Hey tulok love your content I am currently trying to make Dr. Victor von Frankenstein in ghosts of saltmarsh the goal of the build is to create my personal flesh golem out of monster parts and find a way to gain eternal life. How would you pull this off?
One option for the starting race could be a shifter. Just needs some reflavoring since there is no lizard shifter 🤔
Wildhunt shifter is just "anything that stalks its prey," and Longtooth could easily be a lizard
Barkskin is also the name of one of my characters
We should totally have Dr. Robotnik in D&D.
alright based on the goals breakdown I'm predicting Druid, Artificer. and some flavor of Martial, probably monk but then again maybe not because we all know how teeeeerrrible monk is as a class
Before vid started: Alchemist Artificer / Beast Barbarian, take Eldritch Initiate Beast Speech, there just needs polish.
After... I'm not entirely convinced that his is better... Longer setup, for one...
Got an idea that I think would be fun. Ever seen the Disney character Kim Possible? A cheerleader in highschool with a side job as a James bond meets Charlie's Angels type hero. How would you make this character work, I'm curious.
Okay, now. How what can I sub out real quick to turn this build into the X-Men villain Sauron?
Does this double as the Stegron build, but replacing the lizard/general reptile stuff with exclusively dinosaurs?
"It's lizard folk time!"
Anyone have any ideas on how to make a Shikimaru like build ? Idk why just would love to make a sheet for him
Unrelated but what was that song at the start sounded good?
I feel like the best race for this would have been the shifter
Please give me a Buck Wild video. He's got his own movie
Custom lineage plus lizard Lycanthropy is the way to go for accuracy.
Dhampir druid is fun way. Dhampir is technically a vampire but there is no reason you could not re-flavour it as a carnivorous lizard man.
The way I'd go? Yuan-ti pure blood with lizard Lycanthropy. You get the human and lizard and the ability to talk to snakes and a plus to INT for artificer. Not very accurate but to hell with accuracy especially when it impedes fun!
How would you make sir crocodile from one piece?
Can you make jack Hanma from the Baki universe ?
Well, in some cases Curt wants to turn people into lizards, so if you want to do that Animal Shapes is the only 8th level spell that makes sense
Please do how to play cayde-6
The LIZARD
He should do Little Nicky!
I like all the herpes trivia; I didn't know Spiderman had it. Good lookin' out.
I didn't think Doc. Connors could control the change. Now I am just asking a question here, wouldn't some form of lycanthrope be more accurate. The Lizard is an alter ego like Hulk and Mr. Hyde, correct?
You always do great vid's. Thanks.
Adam
Shouldn't Con have been 12 using standard array?
2 episodes left till episode 413: Homestuck build?
Where would one find this Tulok Rhino Race for... Reasons?
Certainly not to make an entire fortress of Rhino guards in a campaign that are holding a single Tabaxi monk prisoner so he doesn't take over the entire valley... I'm not ripping of Kung Fu Panda, shut up
Rogue base, right? Artificer multiclass maybe?
Lol whoops, guess not
I was thinking about that to, but this did it better
Kill croc .... When? Or Jill valentine/ crist redfeld?
He ate a boy!
Please do Merlin from fate babylonia!!!
All these Spiderman villain videos beg one question: why no footage from the 90's Spiderman cartoon? What do you have against 90's Spiderman Tulok?
Vin diesel wouldn't be 56 minutes late 😔
Can yes
May no
Can you please do Akira from Devilman Crybaby?
Sick
Challenge build: jake from adventure time!
Great to see this class combination!
Btw, how come we never had any Naruto build on this channel yet, after 400 builds??!
Because that's 700 episodes of a TV show and ugggggh
@@JakeTheHawk You could say the same about DBZ and Bleach.
The more you know.
Gotta say I was predicting shifter for the race
Should try to make some breath of fire characters
Need Mr. Game and Watch.
Decent Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde build
I think I might pick simic hybrid or shifter instead of custom lineage, personally
Yes but he has to ask for consent.
Before start. Gonna guess Path of Beast Barbarian?
I’m the sixth view but the 8th like, Tuloks content transcends the rules of reality
ah yes, Custom Lineage, or in this case "Variant Lizardfolk".
Pre-vid prediction: I think we are actually getting a simic hybrid here, instead of lizardfolk, due to the scientific origins. Sage background, alchemist artificer/totem barbarian, perhaps? Very MAD, but possibly really neat?
Or maybe he should be a shifter?
A monster who is also a scientist… why does this almost fit a Jeckyl and Hyde build too?
