🕑 Added 2021-10-02 10:00:03 +0000 UTCA purely mechanical update for you all, since there were some delays with the artwork - I will play catch up with updates next week.
Please let me know what you think here or in the discord. :D

Constrict. Your coiling body is a natural melee weapon, which you can use to make constrict attacks. If you hit with it, you deal bludgeoning damage equal to 1d6 plus your Strength modifier. Instead of dealing damage, you can choose to grapple your target instead. You have advantage on constrict attacks against targets that you have grappled.

Apophis
Ability Score Increase. Your Dexterity score increases by 2, or your Dexterity score and your Intelligence scores each increase by 1.
Bite. Your fangs are natural melee weapons that have the finesse trait, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you deal piercing damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength or Dexterity modifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.
Venomous. You have the ability to secrete venom from your fangs. When you hit a creature with an attack using your fangs, you can choose to inject venom into the creature. The creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save a creature takes poison damage equal to an amount of d6 equal to your proficiency modifier. On a successful save a creature takes half as much damage. The saving throw is 8 + your proficiency bonus + your constitution modifier. Alternatively you can mix your venom with your saliva to create poison as an action. Your poison is an ingested and injury type poison. A creature subjected to your poison treats it as if you injected your venom into the creature. Once your poison leaves your mouth, it remains potent for one hour. You are immune to your own poison. Once you secret venom, you can’t do so again until you have finished a short or long rest.
Slithering. When you move you can choose to use your serpentine body to move in disorienting patterns. When you do so you must spend your entire movement moving this way until the end of your turn.

Regarding the languages, they will probably be Common, Yuan-Ti, and one additional language of your choice.

Coming back to this post now n again, since I'm gonna get to poke at it soon~ish as a player. I'm assuming this is omitted since this is more of a wip/concept update, but is there any ideas for languages known atm?
