Overview

Physical Description

The nagaji are a race of ophidian humanoids with scaled skin that mimics the dramatic appearance of true nagas. Like serpents, they have forked tongues and lidless eyes, giving them an unblinking gaze that most other races find unnerving. Their physical forms are otherwise human-like, raising wary speculation about their origins. Nagaji often inspire awe and fear among other humanoids, as much for their mysterious ancestry as for their talent for both swords and sorcery. The nagaji have long since developed into a vibrant and proud race.
The reptilian nagaji have scaly flesh—these scales are typically green, gray, or brown in hue, with colourful ridges of red, blue, or orange on their skulls or backs. Their ears and noses are flat, almost to the point of being non-existent, while their eyes are those of serpents, ranging widely in colour but tending toward golds, reds, yellows, and other warm hues. Nagaji grow to a height of 7’6” to 8” tall.
