Lizardfolk, Twilight Paragon (3.5e Racial Paragon Class)
Twilight Lizardfolk Paragon
Spending all their time in the trees in otherwise uninhabited ares, twilight lizardfolk are as much wild as the unintelligent creatures around them. They have bonded with nature to the point that even their arcane magics come from nature itself, giving it a divine power. They have a dual nature: one part sorcerer and the other druid. Members of the race the truly embody both aspects of their natural magics become paragons.

Class Features
All of the following are class features of the twilight lizardfolk paragon.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: Twilight lizardfolk paragons are proficient with all simple weapons and light armor.
Spellcasting: At each class level, you gain new spells per day as if you had also gained a level in both druid and sorcerer. You do not, however, gain any other benefit of that class that you would have gained (wildshape, familiar advancement, and so on). This essentially means that you add your twilight lizardfolk paragon class levels to your level in druid and sorcerer, and then determine spells per day and caster level accordingly.
Dual Nature: Your Natural Spellcasting ability now gives you effective spellcaster levels for the purposes of spells per day in both the druid and sorcerer classes.
Armored Mage: When wearing light armor that a druid can wear without hindering spellcasting, you have no arcane spell failure chance due to that armor.
Ability Boost (Ex): At 3rd level, a twilight lizardfolk paragon’s Wisdom score increases by 2 points.
