The troglodyte is a fictional race of primitive reptilian humanoids in the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game.
The troglodyte was introduced to the D&D game in the first edition of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.
The troglodyte appears in the first edition Monster Manual (1977), where it is described as a reptilian humanoid that dwells in subterranean places, loathes humans and slaughters all it encounters.
Troglodytes play an important role in the module Against the Cult of the Reptile God (1982).
This edition of the D&D game included its own version of the troglodyte, in the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set (1977, 1981, 1983).
