We have the spider mount, but I would like to see a lizard mount as well. My poor male drow are stuck with surface mounts when they could have their very own lizard from the Underdark. Please let this be a choice in the future. Thanks.

My character could use a positive mount. We have enough negative mounts in the game.

If we want an "Underdark mount", it should be some sort of albino lizard!

If you are riding a dragon then it can only mean one thing: you are in it's belly.
I know it's a common request but dangit that's not Forgotten Realms friendly AT ALL.
In the hundred or so FR books I have read only one had riding a dragon in it was only through a domination spell which logicaally ended in the dragon being pissed off and trying to eat the fools who dominated his mind.
Dragons aren't pets or obediant to any being. Even the benevolent dragons like Silver and Gold Dragons feel equal if not superior to other races and simply do not share in the opinion the opinion that other races should be treated poorly like the majority of dragon races do.
FR lore does not support riding dragons as if they were domesticated animals.
Probably I pushed a bit with "dragon" since one of thoose would cover 1/5 of PE but I meant something like Pseudodragon (big enogh to ride, not big enough to swallow me).
Rage Drake would be nice, perhaps Wyvern would be good too (though it's not exactly a dragon)

Are there drakes or wyrms, or w/e you would call the creatures that are larger than pseudodragons, but more animalistic than a full fledged dragon and feasible as a mount?

I keep hoping for an underdark themed expansion which include lizard mounts.
While I do love themed expansions, and while I do love Underdark a lot, LotRO is a pretty good example of expansions going wrong. The Mines of Moria expansions introduced rideable goats, with the results goats flooding all over the place. Even the Shire was flooded with goats. It was ridiculous, and one of the final nails in the coffin for me. (legendary weapons that gained experience and leveled up, also introduced in Moria, was another huge nail.)
So... yay for rideable lizards that fit in all over the place. Huge no, no, no for themed mounts that DON'T fit in all over the place. Like people riding the sled on sand or rocks. Funny thing in the Winterfestival-area, aweful sight anywhere else.

What I was thinking about was something between horse and yeth hound.
Oh and it doesn't need to fly (so Rage Drake would fit perfectly into "what I want")

Besides the one you mention (from Cleric Quintet, I assume), 2 Gold dragons carry Jarlaxle and Artemis across the lands at the end of the Sellswords.
Also, in the Shadowborn Trilogy (Erivis Cale), A Shadow dragon lets a Paladin ride him into battle in the middle of the Shadowstorm (tho it was a repayment of a debt to Erivis)
Not a common occurrence, but it's happened more than a few times.
I am not sure why, but dose anybody know why I can not reclaim the Dusk Unicorn I bought from the zen market on all my characters. The mount dose have free on it. Its like I never bought it??

Pretty sure that's a known bug, sadly.

Lizards are good, but I'm still holding out for Griffon or Hippogriff.

Gotta say those sleds look completely ridonkulous, giant gravy boats or Arabian slippers zipping all over the place:/
Anyways Im just holding thumbs for a Bullywug companion tho:)

Only female twiliks can ride lizzards .

Speaking of wrong franchise. Why can't we just use the "Bend Will" shout to ride dragons? GOL-HAH-DOV!
(Of course cryptic may face a lawsuit but, we'll get to zip around on dragons for a little while.)
The owlbear is pretty cool as a mount too, but it would have been better as an encounter...love lizards and owlies!
