Description
Intricate patterns of greens, browns and black cover the dull scales of the kashika serpent, making it difficult to distinguish from its surroundings.
Area Information
- Spotted kashika serpents inhabit the Beneath Fang's Peak mine in Fang Cove. The area is only accessible to Estate Holders. Although non-estate holders can join the sea mammoth to Fang Cove, only estate holders may leave the building where the mammoth docks.
- Their habitat is indoors so they start advancing at pole range and often spawn in packs of two or three.
- Movement in the cave (including RETREATing) can result in entanglement, a web effect that prevents movement and other actions for the duration [Roundtime: # seconds]. Skill in Athletics will mitigate the time it takes to escape this web effect. With sufficient skill it can be avoided altogether. Experienced dilettante's (135 ranks) can avoid it when retreating (12/15/2016). More skill is required to avoid it when moving room to room.
- Occasionally an adventurous kashika serpent will slither out the southern end of the cave into the, normally uninhabited, outlying dense undergrowth of Fang's Shadow.
