The story of the Lizarddawg
The following is the only know account of Mr. Widgwicket.
In the year of our Lord 1794 an avid explorer one Nathanial Maximul Widgwicket was on the second leg of his journey to discover new varieties of primitive man along the coasts of China Malaysia and Borneo.
It happened that a great storm arose on the 17th of April that lasted for two days. Unfortunate, for Mr. Widgwicket his once very sea worthy English corvette now found herself at the mercy of the sea.
Terribly true was it, that such a streamlined vessel would be found a heap of tangled beam and splinter on some unrecognizable island somewhere between Vietnam and Borneo. Upon gathering what belongings he had, Mr. Widgwicket and the two remaining crew members considered their fate.
Upon the second night from the tragedy a strange figure entered the camp of Mr. Widgwicket. This man or beast walked as a man but it also had what appeared to be a tail.
This was so very alarming that Mr. Widgwicket and the crew were unable to focus on an action and stood in a frozen silence while the figure moved closer.
As the light from the camp fire began to expose more and more of this mysterious figure it became apparent that what stood before Mr. Widgwicket was not a man, but an beast that bore the resemblance of both an Australian Shepard and so very strangely a LIZARD.
Just then as if from a dream this figure spoke with a rough yet wind chimed voice and asked if assistance was needed. All, were shocked and speechless. Monuments passed and Mr. Widgwicket said “We are fine but in need of food”.
These were the only accounts released by Mr. Widgwicket as until his later years he never spoke of his mysterious adventure. No one even today can say where Mr. Widgwicket died. We do know however that the term Lizarddawg was given to those beasts living on the unknown Island; where ever it may be.
Lizarddawg as a name was taken out of a respect for Mr. Widgwicket and what his life stood for Peace, Perseverance, Integrity and Loyalty. His dedication to the safeguarding of the Lizarddawg Lands has kept them safe until today. Lizarddawg would wish you all well.
