Yuan-Ti Pureblood
Yuan-Ti Pureblood
Purebloods form the lowest caste of yuan-ti society. They closely resemble humans, yet a pureblood can't pass for human under close scrutiny because there's always some hint of its true nature, such as scaly patches of skin, serpentine eyes, pointed teeth, or a forked tongue. Wearing cloaks and cowls, they masquerade as humans and infiltrate civilized lands to gather information, kidnap prisoners for interrogation and sacrifice, and trade with anyone who has something that can further their myriad plots.

race features:
Darkvision. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern colour in darkness, only shades of gray. Innate Spellcasting. You know the Poison Spray cantrip. You can cast Animal Friendship an unlimited number of times with this trait, but you can target only snakes with it. Starting at 3rd level, you can also cast Suggestion with this trait. Once you cast it, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for these spells. Cold-Blooded. Magic affecting your mind is naturally less effective due to your emotionless state. You have advantage on all Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma saves against magic. Poison Immunity. You are immune to poison damage and the poisoned condition. Serpent's Sense. Yuan-ti's likeness to snakes has enabled their sixth sense; the ability to read major heat signatures. You have advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks to detect warm-blooded creatures that are not obscured by anything. You cannot discern anything beyond number and size class through heat signature.

Purebloods were described as human-like but with minor reptilian features, such as snake-like eyes, a forked tongue, and patches of scales on their skin. Purebloods had weights and heights in the same range as humans.
