Slithtaur (slith-tawr)

Slithtaur

Slithtaurs were cold-blooded snake people who spit poison and only trusted their own kind. Like many reptiles, slithtaurs could uses their forked tongues to sense heat. Their bodies were covered in fine scales, which ranged in a variety of colors. The variance in appearance rivaled the biology of merfolk. No two slithtaurs were the same. Crossbreeding often resulted in the development of flatter skulls and hair passed down through generations, though most slithtaurs were hairless. Slithtaurs walked on two legs, only their young slithered around on their bellies before their legs grew in. Their tails usually disappeared by the time they reached adulthood.

Subgroups

There were three subgroups of the slithtaur people. Sunera resided in the desert regions, and spoke their own dialect. The Sunera strictly separated themselves from worldwide cultural norms to even speak to a non-slithtaur person was seen as betraying the culture. The Sineras were less strict in terms of separation but would not reside in a non-slithtaur community. Finally, there was the Saptera who did not practice cultural separation and regularly engaged in crossbreeding.

Several types of traditional recipe used a blend of cannabis as a flavoring spice; such cases were also found in the cuisine of some other countries.
