Some continued down the dark and twisted path of self experimentation and even infusing themselves with greater psionic potential, believing that doing so would lead them to becoming more prefect servants to their long lost creators gods and convince these deities to return to them. These are more like the typical Yuan-ti only more aberrant-like and with psionic powers. Other fled into the dark canopy of the Twilight Forest, a place infused with the energies of both the Feywild and the Shadowfell causing this mystical forest to always be bathed in shadows and a starry sky, when the world fell to chaos after the god's abandonment. Though many viewed the Yuan-ti as dangerous, a benevolent being known as Asherah the Twilight Serpent took these poor serpentfolk under her feathered wings and bestowed upon them her wisdom and teachings, acting as a protector and deity of sorts. These Yuan-ti are masters of divine magic, and often act as healers and wise serpents to those in need, and have become the devout agents of the Twilight Serpent.Still others found themselves deep in the heart of the dragonlands, surrounded by a massive war between the different draconic sects that threatened to annihilate them. Desperate, they called out to the heavens for aid and found the very ground seem to move to wrap around the central valley of the dragonlands, holding it in his protective coils. Their cries had been answered by the elder draconic primal spirit known as the World Serpent, who with his great strength and titanic size caused the dragons to flee and war elsewhere on the continent. With the valley safe, the World Serpent led the yuan-ti to another elder Primal Spirit that resided at the center of the valley, the World Tree, who allowed the serpents to rest under her canopy and make a home in the valley where her roots stretch out. These Yuan-ti have remained ever since, becoming devout practitioners of the druidic arts and the Primal Way and venerate both of these Primal Spirits and nature itself.Regardless of the subspecies, all Yuan-ti appear as Yuan-ti Half-bloods (some combination of half-human and half serpent) or as Yuan-ti Ascendant (the Abomination form). Yuan-ti Anathema are a rare and more power Yuan-ti, and often act as leaders of their people or as direct champions to those they venerate.</blockquote>
