Physical Description

Sarashah is slim athletic venomous naga. She has lime green foliage colored scales that helps her hide in foliage. She may not be strong and big as other naga, but she is a lethal hunter. Her brown skin helps her flesh blend with tree trunks so her natural camouflage is quite effective. Her dark hair does not hinder this effect. Her human half stands about 5'4" and is trim and fit, built like a swimmer. She has ample C-cup breasts covered by a well fitting animal skin cloth as a bra, with a matching waist wrapping she made herself. Her tail is unusually long and thin. Her large powerful coils if layed and stretched out would measure a very impressive 49 feet long. She is built to move through a canopy of a forest which has very large trees. She has slitted yellow eyes, but also has heat sensitive organs like a pit viper. Her tongue is very sensitive to tastes in the air as well. Her fangs have a neurotoxic venom which causes paralysis of the muscles. A normal dose is meant to render prey helpless. A high dose will kill by stopping essential muscular function, and an overdose will damage the nerve receptors creating false signal reception and causing the victims lifeless body to involuntarily spasm even beyond death. Her breed molts before winter into a reactive skin with pigment shifting scales which help her completely and perfectly blend with her surroundings to hibernate safely for winter. Her long coils are smaller but incredibly stretchy. Her breed also has more human like genitalia, that is still quite stretchy however, they breed in the traditional fashion and do not need a vagina built to consume prey, that is what a mouth is for. Her pelvic region starts as human hips that go down into her snake half, almost like a scaly human rear, it's rectum actually leads downward toward the snake half. Her digestive tract extends all the way down her snake half and back up. It is bent over itself due to the long digestive process they have. This process more efficently absorbs nutrients from all bodily tissues. Even bone and cartilage like most snakes. The incredibly long coils compare to other naga is also from this. They have a digestive track built to not only process food but store, just about anything. The entire process takes about a month or more, sometimes even years with larger tougher prey, or if the naga really enjoys their company inside. The digestion is almost painless and is not even harmful to the prey for a few weeks. Her kin usually lead prey into a false sense of security within them. Like all snakes Their stomach acid is only produced during active digestion and only a small exact amount for breaking down a food item is released. For Lamia and Naga this is no longer an automatic function in the nervus system but a concious decision. This is why they can safely store items, and evolutionarily their eggs and young inside their long stomachs.

Personality

This young naga is brash and youthful. She has had poor socialization having groan up alone as is traditional for her people. She is a skilled and efficient huntress. She greatly admires strength, and skills to survive. She particularly is impressed by those with superior power to subdue others, no matter the form. She despises weakness, because she learned it leads to pain and death. She hates weakness in herself and others, but over the years spent with a certain kind and caring mentor, she has learned to accept it.

She used to see humans, anthros, and other "prey species" as worthless weak and pathetic. She saw their usual inability to defend themselves from predators as justification for her being able to treat them however she wanted. Over her time spent in her new home with certain individuals, she learned to overcome her prejudice. She now treats her prey with respect due to her gained wisdom. She has come to see many as friends. She now enjoys providing a safe warm shelter inside her for those weaker than herself.

Though she has always reformed her prey simply out of the logical conclusion that she would have more food if she didn't decrease the prey population, she now does it out of moral obligation. She formerly would catch a prey, subdue it, kill it, then swallow the corpse, and reform the prey, to do so again and again, to repeat this process until she had filled her legth with the prey's bodies; She still prefers to do this from time to time, if she gets the opportunity. She has never considered herself a murderer, and in a sense never has been. She now is content just giving her prey a nice ride through her digestive system, safe without the destiny of digestion. She now always asked her prey, and potential meals, if they want to feed her before hand, unless she has gone some time without feeding. Then she asks if they would prefer her to digest them alive, or be killed before hand, again unless she had not feed in quite sometime. She now even sooths and comforts her meal, not just taunting and teasing it. She still enjoys teasing her prey inside her however.

Back story and how she moved forests is still to come.
