ABOUT

Ha-nagas are 100‑foot-long serpentine creatures with the head of a classically beautiful human. They have no set coloration, with their scales instead changing color to match its surroundings like a chameleon.

Ha-nagas live in warm forests and jungles. They prefer to live in the ruins of ancient civilizations, most preferably those of one they had brought low. Ha-nagas would make their lair in some former center of society, such as a temple, throne room, or coliseum, and pile art, jewelry, records, and other artifacts of that civilization in their nest.

Ha-nagas are malevolent and arrogant creatures known to engineer the downfall of civilizations. They revel in their own destructive talents and see all other creatures as lesser beings that should bow before them.

In combat, ha-nagas preferred to use their ability to fly to keep out of range of melee, instead casting spells or using its charm gaze from a distance. If forced into close ranger combat, they would use their serpentine body like a whip or to constrict foes, and stung with the venomous stinger on the end the tail.

Ha-nagas are worshiped as gods by spirit nagas.
