Yuan-Ti Pureblood Variant[edit]

Now they will know why they are afraid of the dark. Now they will learn why they fear the night.
—Dulsa Thoom, Book of Nanoc the Rogue

This race is an alteration on the Yuan-Ti Pureblood race established for 5e from Volo's Guide to Monsters.

Description[edit]

Yuan-Ti Purebloods are the most humanoid of the yaun-ti species, looking almost human save for minor alterations such as slit tongues, snake-like eyes, unusual skin, or sharp features. These alterations are blessings from the dark gods associated with their kin.

Yuan-Ti Pureblood Variant Psychology[edit]

Yuan-Ti Purebloods are cold blooded reptilian humanoids who lay eggs and have an emotionally stunted yet fiendishly cunning intellect.

Territories[edit]

Once upon a time the yuan-ti controlled an ancient decadent empire, but it long ago fell into decay. These days they rule from the shadows among humans and other species as spies and agents.

Yuan-Ti Pureblood Variant Adventurers[edit]

Yuan-Ti are opportunities to the core, and what greater opportunity is there but in the role of adventurer?

Yuan-Ti Pureblood Variant Names[edit]

Yuan-Ti are members of other cultures and thus take on their local names to fit in.
