The sharptooth are the most numerous of the lizardfolk, and usually live in and around bodies of water. They either actively hunt or float just below the water's surface, waiting for an unsuspecting animal to drink or swim by. The more civilized ones tend to roam more, forming tribes that hunt around bodies of water as well as on the plains.
