Dragons, gryphons, birds, a more normal species of lizard, sharks, and snakes were all species that I considered picking for my sona, but I ultimately went with Kra cuz he's mah dood.
The funny thing about that is that a lot of his design wasn't even my idea. When I was originally making Kra for a D&D campaign it was the DM that suggested he be a lizardfolk, as I was bitching about the boring base races at the time. He also suggested that Kra have black scales and tattoos. I came up with them being white and full body, as I figured they would look cool, and I also added the piercings later for the same reason.
His actual design was done by the original artist of my ref sheet, and it was based on a picture of a lizardfolk monk I found on Google images that I can't find anymore because I suck at the internet. I did ask for big ol scales though, as I kinda wanted him to be "armored" if that makes sense XD
