Species Week: Nagas
This Species Week, we're traveling to India and south east Asia to talk about nagas!
The purpose of species week is to discuss what defines a creature as a species, and get to the bottom of what traits/features are integral to our understanding of them. How do you imagine nagas? What are your favorite myths about them? What are your favorite interpretations of them from media?
For those unfamiliar with TOF and my posts on diversity in TTRPGs, I'll also clarify again what we are (and are not) looking for in terms of species feedback: We're looking for the physical, biological traits of a species - things that define them as a creature. Are they warm or cold blooded? How many limbs do they have? What climates do they thrive in? Are they omnivorous? What's their metabolism like? How do they reproduce? Do they have any special senses? What innate skills do they possess due to their physicality?
We are not looking for personality traits, commonly trained skills, or assumptions about their upbringing. Project TOF is being written with the firm belief that such traits should never come from a character's species - these are for class, background, and the player's imagination to determine - and thus such comments are not helpful in this context.
To those here for @wearenecromancers content, I have a favor to ask: I’ve been hard-pressed to find any necromancer-themed artwork of nagas :( My submissions are open, and anything you find or create would be super appreciated!
