Quick Facts

---

Appearance...
- Xiang Yao is a Wyrm of poison, and while most snakes are venomous, this one is quite poisonous.
- It excretes a toxic gas from glands deep within its belly, along with its venom, which gives the Xiang Yao a bloated mid-section compared to other snakes.
- The most terrible and easily recognized feature of this vile serpent is its numerable (and nearly human in appearance) heads, counting nine. This feature can make the serpent especially deadly, since it is able to attack several assailants at a single time.
Habitat...
- Andoria, Southlands
- Typically roams lowland areas, spreading around the poison will of Yofune-Nushi.
- Often a spy for its master, keeping villages in lines with the all-seeing sight of its nine heads.
Behavior...
- It worships the Water Wyrm of which it serves, Yofune-Nushi.
- It is most threatening to villages because its very presense poisons the water, kills gardens, and brings disease unlike any seen from another creature.
- Xiang Yao is also to warn his master of any attack the emperor may plan to assasinate Yofune-Nushi.
