Big nasty diamond-backed vipers, one of the few vipers anywhere that will go after you as you flee, and they have necrotizing venom that typically amounts to amputational injuries for most folks in villages without access to hospitals. As a consequence my friends down there kill every snake they find regardless, even the ones that have the exact proportions of a strand of linguine (aka baby snakes). That's what I would probably do too, in their shoes.Spawn of Endrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10431848914619887998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-41000591784686658392010-08-28T07:46:58.276-07:002010-08-28T07:46:58.276-07:00Marcelo, that's cool!Marcelo, that's cool!Telecanterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07238356788092725244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-90167252866280836782010-08-27T13:05:09.760-07:002010-08-27T13:05:09.760-07:00I've being there.

It's a wonderful island, but there are really thousands of snakes there...<br /><br />In fact I've never boarded the island, but I've sailed around it in the past. It is truly a great inspirational locale for a game.<br /><br />And I agree with the Yuan-Ti stuff. ;-)Marcelo Paschoalinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05869301766211022548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446461178381374626.post-39450228194652010582010-08-26T21:52:30.449-07:002010-08-26T21:52:30.449-07:00Thanks, Paul, Christian.
