====== Yuan-Ti ====== [[culture:start|Return to Cultures]] - [[culture:species|Return to Species]] \\ Most would consider an Un-Holy crossbreed between serpent and mortal. Scholars have been rather hesitant to confirm the exact origins of the Yuan-Ti people weather it was some dark magic ritual or simple adventurous procreation, Knowing man's rather one track mindset throughout the generations, the latter hypothesis is most likely. {{ :wiki:media:template.png?:200 |}} \\ ^ Title ^ Detail ^ ^ Species Class:| //humanoid, fey, fiend, dragon etc// | ^ Population:| //Common, Rare, Exotic, Mythical etc// | ^ Homeland/Origin:| //Realm, Nation Etc// | ^ Average Hight:| //Cm , Feet// | ^ Lifespan:| //Years // | ^ Physical Traits:| //Tails, Wings, Fur, Pointy ears, Scales etc// | ^ Source:| //Content Book & Page Number// | **Homeland of Promise** \\ Much like many other monstrous species, Yuan-Ti were not treated or considered citizens until very recently. **More Magical than Lizardfolk** \\ **Dominant Females** \\ **The Yuan-Ti Spectrum** \\ The Yuan-Ti people come in a wide soectrum of appearances.

They normally have snake like eyes, Fangs and tongue as well as scales. as the name suggests, Half-Blood Yuan-Ti are born from a cross breed between mortal and Yuant-Ti. They easily blend into a humanoid society only having a few key features that can be easily explained away in the wide culture world of Felwind. \\ ===== Naga / Lamia ===== {{ :wiki:media:template.png?100 |}} //Source: \\ Battlezoo Ancestries: Lamia \\ (3rd Party)// Text. ===== Great Serpent / Pure-Blood ===== {{ :wiki:media:template.png?100 |}} Text ===== Sethos / Medusa ===== {{ :wiki:media:template.png?100 |}} //Source: \\ Battlezoo Ancestries: Classic Creatures, Pg 228 \\ (3rd Party)// //Alternative: \\ Arcadia: Volume 12, Pg 7 \\ (MCDM) // These creatures are never naturally born.
