Naga

These large snake-like humanoids are descended from Sea Dragons. All Naga have long tails in place of legs, but however they do have a humanoid upper body structure. They are covered head to tail in scales that are usually of a cool hue (greens, blues, browns and sometimes purples. No reds, or orange though). They have snake-like/dragonoid heads. 'Nagas favor humid places (such as marshes and swamps) and shoresides. Mildly thick forests are also relatively enjoyed. Most cities tend to be close to bodies of water, yet there are a few in the middle of large plains without lakes. Though they’re not particularly good swimmers, they’re competent navigators in most environments and thus excellent cartographers. Naga explorers are quite numerous and well-known. 'They are also known for their great amount of competence in city management and architecture. Naga cities are often extremely efficient and self-sufficient. All city plans are carefully calculated to maximise commercial and social output, for Nagas but also for immigrants and exterior merchants. Naga architecture is also considered to be very high-level due to its capacity to take into account loads of factors and dealing with them with high yet equal efficiency.

Nagas are also known to be proficient traders. Nagas mostly deal in food, wooden crafts, and weaponry, generally heavy weapons and long range archery. They’re famous for their “Powerbows” which tend to have more strings than modern razors have blades. They also produce armor but aren’t that effective in this domain. 'The defining trait of Naga society is their hyper-developed communistic regime. The entire populace is tightly knit together by a web of strong, close friendships, large families and enormous, city-wide clans. Nagas also have a few large groups of “races” (some are more slender and have no hoods or fins, some are stout and more muscular, some are average sized and have horns, etc.) that tend to stick with each-other, but “racial” hatred is almost nonexistent due to omnipresent ethnocentrism and nationalism. 'Nagas aren’t particularly liked in other nations due to their patriotism that largely leads to smugness. Some of them “internationalize” better than the others, but they’re the exception rather than the norm. Nagas may have a rather large amount of trade links with other countries, but this is mostly because they want more wealth to make their country prosper.

One last thing to note is that they SERIOUSLY dislike Krynn, mostly because they’re kind of their hated brother-in-law (the origin of the Krynn for them is something not very savory) and they’re utterly disgusted by the fact they rely on slavery instead of everyone working for the sake of their nation.
