The Lizardman Chief is an enemy in Octopath Traveler. It is the first of two bosses in Chapter 3 of Olberic’s story.
Story[]
The Lizardmen are highly territorial creatures who threaten the desert city of Wellspring. Captain Bale of the city guard once received the aid of Erhardt, who had been wandering, in protecting a caravan from Lizardmen. He offered Erhardt a place in protecting the city, and Erhardt had been regarded as a local hero since then.
In Chapter 3 of Olberic's story, Erhardt battles the Lizardmen to their lair, and is close to being overwhelmed before Olberic appears. The two knights slay the leaders of the horde, dispelling the threat of the nest.
