The Lizard Men are a group mystically altered humans from the Fall People tribe. They are the missing women and men from the local village. Iranda Queen of the Lizard-Men changed them so she would have creatures to serve her every whim.[1] Ka-Zar comes to rescue the villagers but is attacked by the the Lizard Men. He is barely able to escape but when he does, he takes Iranda's crown with him. With her crown gone, at moon-rise her enchantment wears off and she becomes a Lizard being as well. After she dies, her enchantments fade and the Lizard-Men turn back into the missing warriors from the village.[1]
