In the Rise of the Snakes sets, Hypnobrai and Fangpyre debuted in the first wave, while the other three debuted in the second wave, the same way the Hypnobrai and Fangpyre were the first two tribes to be released from their tombs in the TV series.

According to Tommy Andreasen, the reason no other female Serpentine were shown in the show besides Selma and Aspheera is "because it's not relevant to the story currently." [32]

Retrieved 2018-11-05.The Serpentine, also called the snakes, are an ancient race of cold-blooded reptilian humanoid snakes who were once the dominant species of Ninjago in the times of the First Spinjitzu Master. The Indo-Chinese Rat Snake is active during the day when it hunts lizards, rodents, and sometimes birds. They can adapt to various habitats but prefer forested areas, grasslands, and plantations close to a water source. This species is common to find on walks and hikes because it’s relatively comfortable around people. Watch your step! Meanwhile Al remeets the harpies, insane women who eat human flesh. One of them is called Rettie. Rettie was the girl that Bill saved instead of her sister, which is why Bill hated Paucar Wami. Al goes to kill him but he spares his life. Additionally, Pythor (being the last member of the final tribe released, the Anacondrai) only has two syllables - unless his full name is used, Pythor P. Chumsworth, with five. It appears that all Serpentine tails (not just Skalidor's) are prehensile, or at least Anacondrai tails are. Some examples of this are Pythor using his tail to hold his ball named Rodrigo, Kapau'rai seizing Noble like a Constrictai, and other Anacondrai Cultists holding onto the ropes of Blade-Copters, all in " The Greatest Fear of All."

Olympias, the mother of Alexander the Great and a princess of the primitive land of Epirus, had the reputation of a snake-handler, and it was in serpent form that Zeus was said to have fathered Alexander upon her. [36] Aeëtes, the king of Colchis and father of the sorceress Medea, possessed the Golden Fleece. He guarded it with a massive serpent that never slept. Medea, who had fallen in love with Jason of the Argonauts, enchanted it to sleep so Jason could seize the Fleece. (See Lamia). What was one of the mo In Ancient Egypt, where the earliest written cultural records exist, the serpent appears from the beginning to the end of their mythology. Ra and Atum ("he who completes or perfects") became the same god, Atum, the "counter-Ra", associated with earth animals, including the serpent: Nehebkau ("he who harnesses the souls") was the two-headed serpent deity who guarded the entrance to the underworld. He is often seen as the son of the snake goddess Renenutet. She often was confused with (and later was absorbed by) their primal snake goddess Wadjet, the Egyptian cobra, who from the earliest of records was the patron and protector of the country, all other deities, and the pharaohs. Hers is the first known oracle. She was depicted as the crown of Egypt, entwined around the staff of papyrus and the pole that indicated the status of all other deities, as well as having the all-seeing eye of wisdom and vengeance. She never lost her position in the Egyptian pantheon. Powerful fighters in the Serpentine ranks, generally less numerous than soldiers or scouts. Often appear similar to their corresponding general, but with legs instead of tails and slight color variations (e.g. Lizaru has green head spikes, while Acidicus has white head spikes). Naga ( Sanskrit:नाग) is the Sanskrit/ Pāli word for a deity or class of entity or being, taking the form of a very large snake, found in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. The naga primarily represents rebirth, death and mortality, due to its casting of its skin and being symbolically "reborn".In Late Antiquity, as the arcane study of alchemy developed, Mercury was understood to be the protector of those arts too and of arcane or occult "Hermetic" information in general. Chemistry and medicines linked the rod of Hermes with the staff of the healer Asclepius, which was wound with a serpent; it was conflated with Mercury's rod, and the modern medical symbol—which should simply be the rod of Asclepius—often became Mercury's wand of commerce. Another version is used in alchemy where the snake is crucified, known as Nicolas Flamel's caduceus. Art historian Walter J. Friedlander, in The Golden Wand of Medicine: A History of the Caduceus Symbol in Medicine (1992), collected hundreds of examples of the caduceus and the rod of Asclepius and found that professional associations were just somewhat more likely to use the staff of Asclepius, while commercial organizations in the medical field were more likely to use the caduceus.

As snakes shed their skin through sloughing, they are symbols of rebirth, transformation, immortality, and healing. [11] The ouroboros is a symbol of eternity and continual renewal of life. There are two morphs, both with the same apparent coloring and pattern. The only difference is the coloring between the scales, which is visible when the snake puffs out its body in a defensive move. The “typical” morph has silvery blue coloring between its scales (pictured above), while the second morph’s coloring is a vibrant red. The rainbow-god of the Ashanti was also conceived to have the form of a snake. His messenger was said to be a small variety of boa, but only certain individuals, not the whole species, were sacred. Their coloring varies; charcoal gray, light yellow-beige, silver-gray, purplish, and white are common. The Serpentine are not naturally evil, rather, they are gullible and naive and so they are influenced and easily persuaded by powerful and villainous leaders. For example, in " All of Nothing," Spitta told the ninja to fear the oncoming Great Devourer until Zane noted that Spitta would be eaten by the creature as well, causing Spitta to plead the ninja to stop Pythor.
