In the Kishan Highlands, the eastern border area between the Trelland Desert and the Zolmar Plains, a strange creature is said to live in amongst the red rocks and tufts of vegetation within the Highlands. Outcasts from roaming bands of Lamia in the desert for lack of magical ability, the half-snake, half-humanoid Nahajaga, have sought together to survive these harsh parts of the world.
With few travelers ever going through the Kishan Highlands, partly due to the legends and tales of the area, partly because the desert doesn’t offer much in terms of trade options or wealth, the tales of the Nahajaga are scarce and rather lacking in detail. The great explorer, Andros de Trelland, claim to have seen “a family of five, the adults being well over 15 ft long, slither away from sight near the eastern edge of the desert.” Andros, an adventurer and cartographer, was not known for caring much about creatures, unless these were interested in him and his travel party. Having spent a good sixteen years in the desert to later get his name, Andros had seen his share of snakes, with help from the locals, he was able to discern from the pattern, and the fact that one of the adults “had a fold-able layer of skin on each side of their heads”, that these were “Cobra-folk”.
Since Andros, not many people have spoken about these strange snake-people, the Nahajaga have often been confused as Nagas or Lamias, both very dangerous and notorious creatures, the common traveler would do best to avoid.
