Legend says that when the Old Gods created the worlds, Quetzl, the Protector
God, built his own island on which his worshipers could live in peace. These
lizards were the best: the strongest, the fastest, the most agile. Quetzl named
the island ¥umtum. The lizards on the island aged, but never died, due to the
magic of ¥umtum Island. The oldest of the Lizards were called the Fathers.
Of the Fathers, one lizard stood out above the rest; he was not the biggest,
nor the strongest, nor the most agile, nor the quickest. He was blind in one
eye and very sickly. Even with these injuries, this Father lizard always looked
out for the younger lizards.
One day, there was an accident. A young lizard enraged a nesting Carnosaur.
The weakest of the Father lizard saved the young lizard, at the cost of his own
life. Quetzl was saddened by the first death of his favorite lizards. Noticing how
the Father lizard had died protecting another lizard, he blessed the Father
lizard. His life was restored to him, but no longer was he the weakest of the
lizards. His sight was restored, he was no longer sick, and now...now he was
the biggest and the strongest of the lizards of ¥umtum Island. The other lizards
called him the Papa Lizard.
This good time could only last so long. The other Gods grew jealous of
Quetzl's servants. Chotec, the Sun God, was the most jealous. He caused fire
to erupt from the ground of the island, burning the Quetzl's lizards. Where the
island had been, only a lone smoking peak AND the Papa Lizard remained.
Quetzl grief could not be measured; so great was his grief that he did not see
the Papa Lizard left on the island. Quetzl's grace left ¥umtum Island, but his
servant did not.
As if the magic of ¥umtum Island, now called ¥umtum Mountain, resided in
the Papa Lizard, he did not age. For many millenniums, the Papa Lizard stayed
on ¥umtum Mountain. Settlers avoided the island, calling it cursed and
"Haunted by a evil god." Eventually, though, a group of exploring lizards
happened upon ¥umtum Mountain. The Papa Lizard told them the tale of
Quetzl, and how he should be worshipped. The Papa Lizard also told them of
how Quetzl had forgotten ¥umtum Mountain. The lizards came up with a plan to
get Quetzl's attention: to become the first great Lizardman Blood Bowl team
in history.
Although he may be injured or killed on the field of battle, the magic of Quetzl,
the Protector God, still lives in him. Any injury he sustains is soon healed
and only emboldens him further. The Papa Lizard is known for 'fatherly' qualities;
he always protects his younger lizard brothers, and is known to go into rages of
revenge when lizards near him are killed or injured.
