Paradise Violated
The LizardsÂ…
While there are many hostile creatures on Paradise, the only sentient ones you've come across are known as the Lizards, mainly because nobody has been inventive enough to assign them another name. They look like four foot tall bi-pedal lizards, so it's an appropriate name.
The Lizards are basically hunters, and are still living in the Stone Age. They employ spears, clubs, blow guns and bows as weapons, but are completely capable of using their natural teeth and claws in combat as well. They aren't united as a race, and there are many tribes actively at war with one another, which is good since they get distracted from attacking you.
You have come across peaceful tribes, but unfortunately this is still a rarity, most of the time the Lizards see you as potential prey. They don't seem to have any fear despite the fact you severely outgun them. Then again they seem to worship various weird idols, so perhaps they believe in some sort of better afterlife. Communication with them is hard since they have difficulty speaking your language and humanity is not known for even bothering to learn other alien languages. Some progress has been made though.
They're primitive, but not stupid. Many times they've set up traps and ambushes that have killed your team members on more than one occasion. Your limited communications with the friendly ones have proven they can learn rather quickly.
If they ever got organized they'd probably be even more dangerous.
