{ Kadha Loxathis }

Kadha is a striking figure, even for a lamia. Her scales are a brilliant gold, shimmering in the sunlight, or glittering in the soft moonlight, and her eyes are a piercing green with some colorful pain around and near them, similar to war paint.. Her long, muscular (serpentine) body is larger than most lamia's, giving her a fearsome presence in comparison. Her scales are sharp and rough, capable of slicing through skin if touched too much, at least if you go at it wrong. She's an estimated 6-7 feet tall normally, and 15-16 feet long whenever stretched out completely. She has long tendril-like hair that's long enough to cascade along her back, contained with a few ridges and spines in her scales, and two long braids strung together on the sides of her head. The "tendrils" can't move, and act as normal hair. Kadha is pansexual, and really doesn't care what gender or orientation you are, as long as they're her mate.

Kadha is that of a complex creature. On one hand, she can be sadistic and cruel to people, becoming a true monster, torturing people, especially hunters. She shows little to no mercy to people, and enjoys killing them... as long as they're human. On the other hand, she's very loyal and protective of other monsters, or at least semi-monstrous creatures, like werewolves, shapeshifters, naga, etc. She has a bit of a softer spot towards them, and will only attack/defend herself if she has to. She isn't mindlessly violent and killing everybody in front of her, as she'd rather strategize and attack whenever her opponent is at their weakest.

She herself is a lamia, about 33 years old, likes basking in the sun, other kinds of her race, and hunting. She gravely dislikes humans, but might be able to calm that hatred down. Though she doesn't enjoy the company of "overly joyous" people, she'd rather be around someone extremely nervous, or extremely arrogant, as she doesn't like getting reminded that she could have a better life.

Kadha's venom is highly potent, capable of paralyzing, inducing a coma, or killing her prey, depending on the dose. She does not use her venom often, preferring to rely on her physical strength and sharp scales and claws to dispatch her enemies. Despite her tomboyish-feminine appearance, she does not show as many signs of lust like a normal lamia might. Instead, she is driven by a lust for blood and violence, which she satisfies by hunting and killing.

In the past, Kadha was born and raised in a small lamia/naga community, where she learned to hunt and forage, but barely made any friends. Even at a young age, she showed talent for hunting and killing, and eventually became a feared predator, even by her own parents. She was exiled out of the community for her excessive wants and needs to attack, often trying to get them to declare war on others just to join the battles. Over time, she became increasingly annoyed by hunters that sought out her head as a trophy and bounty. She wanted to find a location where she could, surprisingly enough, live in peace. She found a nice spot in a near inhospitable region, deep in the desert, next to an oasis. She made her home in ancient ruins, where it was nice and quiet. Over time though, stories were told about her, and a few generations believed her to be a myth.
