Yuan Ti

Yuan-Ti (the monstrous snake race) functions similarly in Nevandaar as they do in the 5e Sourcebooks, albeit with a much friendlier and less aggressive demeanour. Purebloods however, are an entirely new kettle of fish.

Designed for purpose:
The Purebloods in Nevandaar initially came to during the War of Attrition. The Yuan-Ti were fighting for the Old Gods, and during the war Malthroos (Old god of trickery and deception) concocted the Purebloods.

Their design was to allow the Yuan-Ti to sneak into Human Settlements and destroy them from within. The human like features were near perfect, and the first few Purebloods made from a gods own hands, were indistinguishable from humans. However, over the many generations that were to come since then, the Purebloods have retained more and more of their serpentine origin.

Purebloods are looked down on in Yuan-Ti society, as they are blamed quite often for their lacklustre performance during the War of Attrition.

Spiteful toward their kind:
Purebloods raised in Yuan-Ti settlements are often discriminated against mercilessly, seen as human-like, and often cited as failed experiments. Meanwhile, Purebloods that grow in other settlements are often associated with and feared much like a regular Yuan-Ti would be. As such, Purebloods have a minor hatred for their own (non Pureblood) relatives; as they are either hated by, or because of, regular Yuan-Ti.
