Jungle Swarms are masses of dangerous reptiles ranging from tiny poisonous lizards to huge pythons or other snakes. [1a]
In battle, Lizardmen armies are often proceeded by swarms of serpents and other reptiles, even on ocassion being drawn out of the sacred snake pit of the temple of Sotek. [2a][3a] When they attack, they swarm around the legs and bodies of their prey, wrapping them in deadly coils or biting with venomous fangs. [1a]
