SBRE: THE STORY: There is scarcely a spot in the world in which the serpent has not received the prayers and praises of men. At first an emblem of the sun's light and power, it is worshipped in lands where the sun is not recognized as a Deity, for instance on the coasts of Guinea where the negro's curse him every morning as he rises, because he scorches them at noon. The winged serpent was a symbol of the Gods of Egypt, Phoenicia, China, Persia, and Hindustan. The Tartar princes still carry the image of a serpent upon a spear as their military standard. Almost all the Runic inscriptions found upon tombs are engraved upon the sculptured forms of serpents. In the temple of the Bona Dea, serpents were tamed and consecrated. In the mysteries of Bacchus, women used to carry serpents in their hands and twined around their brows, and with horrible screams cry, Eva! Eva! In the great temple of Mexico, the captives taken in war and sacrificed to the sun, had wooden collars in the shape of a serpent put round their necks. And water-snakes are to this day held sacred by the natives of the Friendly Isles. It was not only worshiped as a symbol of light, of wisdom and of health, personified under the name of God, but also as an organ of divination.


The La Kota family firstly are cousins to the La Mara's, The House of Solomon. The Serpent Blood Rose Empire though is a cult, a Serpent worshiping Cult. They are home to the dragons of Eden, the winged lizards, the leviathans of the sea etc. The family are shape-shifters, but this is not compulsory if you wish to join this family or join this kingdom.

There are many mythologies you can draw on to be a member of this group as well, if you want a little supernatural in your role play, then look no further.
