The Snake's Soul


Facets of the gem
  • Adaptable
    • Sometimes your initial plans just don't work out. Zorias tries to start off with a plan that is solid, but he's more than willing to throw all plans to the wind if he feels it's nessecary.
  • Friendly
    • Quick to start up a conversation with an interesting stranger, he rarely ever tries to drive people away. He never trusts, and rarely cares, but he'll spark up shallow friendships with many who cross his path.
  • Adventurous
    • Unlike most, Zorias considers adventure to be an everyday pastime. He is perpetually curious, and often wanders off to do what he likes. He cares about danger, but is rarely overly concerned, confident he could escape any who would cause him harm. In fact, some might say he actively seeks out dangerous (But not too dangerout) situations
  • Self serving
    • In the end, it's all about him. He cares about his family, and the few real friends he has, but if he had to make a choice, his safety and comfort are the most important things to him. After all, friends are all nice and good, but they're not the ones who will be dead.
  • Ruthless
    • See above. Honestly, you chat with people a few times and they expect you to give your life for them.

The Snake's Skills


Combat
Snake Spear :
He normally fights in his Dhani form, where he uses his spear to keep other enemies back so he can engage them one at a time with his club. As a human, he tries to keep from being surrounded, often by dashing through a line of unsuspecting enemies.

He tries to make each thrust count, preferring to try and hit the head, abdomen, groin, or, if necessary, turn the spear to the side and try to slip it through someone's ribs.

He normally leads with his right hand, so his left is the driving force. He does this because he finds this gives him a significant advantage over enemies accustomed to fighting righties.



Unarmed :
As a Dhani, he prefers a feinting move where he lunges at an enemies' side to make him leap into the path of Zorias's club. He favors his club over his fangs, but will use whichever seems most appropriate.



Poison :
His knowledge of poisons is limited to his own.



Outdoors
Hunting :
Zorias uses his Dhani form for large prey, and snake for smaller. He rarely ever hunts as a human. As a result his method of hunting resembles that of a real snake than that of a human.


Others


Languages :
Zor's native language is Snake, naturally. He can speak it perfectly, knows all the slang, subtlety, etc. He knows everything a rattler would know, but there might be some difference between subraces. There is no written form.

Common, Zorias can speak and understand decently, and can read a little, with great difficulty. He can only write a few basic words, along with numbers. He speaks with a very slight hiss. He knows quite a few swears, and can be very creative with making new ones. He isn't very comfortable with using words more than three syllables long, and tends to stick to the simplest words that will get his message across.

Zorias can understand a little Vani, doesn't speak it, and is completely illiterate.


Senses :
As a human, his sense of taste is amplified, which is not very helpful to him. He has to rely on his sense of sight, which is unusual for him, so he often has to remind himself that his other senses are dulled.

As a dhani or snake, he tends to rely on his heat vision to avoid crashing into anything, uses his smell to detect prey and predators, and hearing to make sure no one is sneaking up on him. He relies more of taste and smell than sight.


Forms :
Zorias is most comfortable in his dhani form, as it has the advantages of both his other forms: A strong tail, fangs, and opposable thumbs. He tends to keep this form when traveling, fighting and hunting.

As a snake, Zor is less noticeable, and blends in with nature. (to a certain extent.) When out in the wilds, he uses this form to scout.

Zor's human form is still rather alien to him. He can blend in with people fairly well, but dislikes it. He is least comfortable like this, but spends time as a human as practice. He keeps to this form in cities, and when he needs to negotiate with people.


Hands :
Zorias is mostly ambidextrous, but favors his left hand slightly.
He uses his left hand for more physical actions. For instance, he uses his left hand as his driving hand when fighting with his spear.

His right hand is used for things like writing, drawing, picking things up, etc.
