Yuan-ti
Shadow rulers of Haemir, the Yuan-ti, enjoy a luxurious life and their forbidden city. They presumably took over the land when the city became forbidden. Most common folk don't even know they are there. They use a figurehead king, to maintain the facade.
Basic Information
Anatomy
The anatomy of the Yuan-ti is strange since several different types, that are to close to each to be called a separate species exist. Divided into 3 castes.
Abomination
Highest cast in Yuan-ti society, they are almost giant serpents. Safe for having a human torso, and some arms. They are completely covered in scales.Malisons
The malisons are imperfect, yet more serpent that the Purebloods. They are as varied as humans with snakes for arms, to people completely covered in scales but no other snake features what so ever. For this reason, they are classed in different types, with roughly the same social standing.- Human body, with snake head
- human head, with snakes for arms
- human head and upper body, but serpentine lower boyd
- Human with serpentine tails
- Human covered in scales
Purebloods
The purebloods are almost indistinguishable from humans, though they often have either a snake tongue, eyes, fangs and/or small amount of scales somewhere on their body.Genetics and Reproduction
A few months after mating with another yuan-ti, the female (of any type) lays eggs. Which are stored in a common hatchery, after hatching each yuan-ti is moved to their appropriate caste.
