==Types of Serpentine==
===Anathema===
Anathema are nightmarish, nearly immortal Yuan-Ti abominations created or summoned for warfare. Known for their invincibility, they were often entombed in stasis due to the difficulty of killing them. They could still reach out psionically from their prisons, contacting beings underground in Merca or on the surface.

Many of them were locked magically behind a ritual known as '''The Copper Doors''' which physically manifested a door to an extradimensional space in which the Anathema was locked. Only with the right magical key and ceremony could the doors be opened or unlocked.

==Serpentine Totems==
As many of the Serpentine lived under or near Al'Adeaf, they sought to overcome the city's [[Sanctity of the Markets|anti-magic defenses]] through '''Serpentine Totems''' and dark Yuan-Ti blood magics. Their goal was to revive Yuan-Ti anathema and reclaim lands for Merca and the ancient Serpentine people.
