Stealth, venom and earth
Serpentkin are one of Aethelgard’s Twelve Mortal Civilisations. Their serpentine features vary, but their natural advantages consistently favour heightened senses, agility and stealth. They practise First Tier Nature’s Craft through traditions centred on subtle earth manipulation and the controlled use of venom rather than large, spectacular magical displays.
This combination makes Serpentkin especially effective at exploiting terrain, setting ambushes and operating where patience and concealment matter more than direct force. Their societies are described as secretive and hierarchical, with a strong respect for cunning and accumulated knowledge. Within the wider mortal world, they represent a form of First Tier power built around precision, preparation and environmental advantage.
