Zel'xia is the Sacred Empress of the Serpent Throne and the ruler of the Kan'tasian Empire. As a Yuan-ti, she possesses both humanoid and serpentine features, with a lower body of a snake and an upper body of a humanoid.

Despite the empire's isolationist policies and focus on shamanistic traditions, Zel'xia is a shrewd and capable leader who has maintained the empire's stability and prosperity throughout her reign. Her personal guard, known as the Fangs of Zel'xia, are some of the most feared warriors in the empire.

Body Features

Zel'xia's upper body is humanoid, with smooth, scaly skin in varying shades of green and gold. Her eyes are almond-shaped and bright, with a piercing gaze that seems to see right through those who look into them. Her nose is slightly flattened and wide, with small nostrils, and her lips are thin and almost invisible against her scales.

Her lower body is that of a large serpent, covered in the same scaly skin as her upper body, with scales that are larger and more pronounced towards her tail. The scales are a mix of green and gold, arranged in intricate patterns that seem to shimmer and shift in the light. The end of her tail is adorned with a series of sharp spines that can be used as weapons if needed.

Her hair is a thick, lustrous mass of dark green, styled in intricate braids and twists that are held in place with golden beads and jewels. It cascades down her back, almost reaching the tip of her serpent's tail. Her movements are graceful and serpentine, with a sinuous grace that seems almost otherworldly. Overall, Zel'xia is a stunning and imposing figure, radiating power and authority in everything she does.
