 The Nagai are a widely-varied race of serpent-types who look like giant snakes, but with a human-like torso not far behind the neck, though the lower body is one large coil. On average, Nagas "stand" at about the same size as a human, but if fully stretched out, they easily reach 18 feet in length. Some varieties of Nagai -- such as the Boa -- can reach far longer than this, up to 30 to 50 feet, it is said. At the other end of the spectrum can be found the lowly Garters, only stretching 2 to 3 feet in length, and standing much shorter than that. Nagas are generally quite agile, and some have poisonous bites, though truly lethal poisons are a relative rarity among the various sub-types. They are reptilian and cold-blooded, and therefore are found in more temperate or warm climates, and almost never in the colder northern regions. On the continent of Ai, Nagas can be found largely in the regions of the Savan, especially in the jungles. There are many Nagai settlements in the Savan, some with stone buildings dating several centuries old. On the continent of Ur, many Naga can be found in the Ashdod Territories, especially in the capitol city of Babel. Nagas lay claim to a heritage that supposedly traces back eons, their "Nagai Empire" purportedly formed back in the age of the First Ones. Of what can be verified, though, the history of their empire can only be traced with certainty back to 4000 RTR, or, perhaps, closer toward 3000 RTR. Of surviving records (carved in stone, etc.) they are the first culture recognized to have had Savanite slaves. (Considering their widespread presence in the Savan, this would only seem natural.)
