She/Her | 20 | >6'5" | DnD PC | Half Yuan-ti | Ranger gloom stalker // barbarian path of the beast

A terrible twin duo of hognose snake ladies whom I played in a two-shot that was about the party finding their bard dad, it went horrifically for all parties involved but these two had a great time! 

The two are monster hunters of sorts; they'll take out anyone who challenges them--and turn them into jerky (to eat for power). As such they have a tentative relationship with the town that's near the ruins they've camped out in (seeing as you can tell them to hunt down any pesky beasts but, well, they aren't exactly far from one themselves). They're invisible in darkness to anyone who can normally see in said darkness, and can climb any surface--including upside down.


Ash (right/purple head)

  • The more calculating-trap and ambush setting ranger
  • Doesn't speak much,  thinks a lot, the creepy one
  • She's usually blowing bubbles with her pipe, and knows how to play wind instruments (notably the pipes of haunting, which make the most horrifically bone chilling sound)
  • Going to find dad for the thrill of the hunt (spoilers she SUPER caught him)

Ash fights with the longbow (draws the arrow with the right arm), and holds the shield when raging to help mitigate the stupid moves her sister takes. Her kit contains a rope, chain, caltrops, lock and key, a hunting trap, the pipes of haunting, and her bubble pipe! She can cast the following spells: poison spray, hunters mark, cure wounds, snare, disguise self, suggestion, animal friendship (snakes only).


Pyrrha (left/orange head)

  • The "I'm biting and charging in, hell yeah, we should just bite off their heads" barbarian 
  • I'm swallowing live rats and things are great! (my sister is grabbing rats out of mouth)
  • Energetically does most of the talking
  • Trying to find dad to apply for dual citizenship! 

Pyrrha's rage allows the girls to grow long black claws or, her favorite, big fangs. Perfect for chomping! Pyrrha always has to be talked into NOT charging in, the two usually compromise by flushing out targets into traps set up by Ash.

~Before the campaign backstory shenanigans~

Snake mom is the ultimate girlboss business lady, loving but very busy with hunting and killing god work. She took the girls out on the hunt with her when they were little, and that's how Ash learned the bow and how to be sneaky, and Pyrrha learned how to chew on bows really well.


They like to sneak around a lot, mostly living in the wilderness camping out and such. Fights monsters to become the New Top Dog wherever they are. On one such occasion they found a big ruin where basilisks were roosting or whatever they do. In a rare occasion of perfect teamwork they ambushed the monsters at night, taking advantage of the fact they’re invisible to them to avoid being turned to stone, and then Went Ham. 

They used the collective -1 brain cells they share to put two and two together (lots of stone people statues here), that they must be near a town and surely there's a cash prize. They lobbed off the heads of the beasts and started a pile on said outside of town, adding to it throughout the night. Which I'm sure made the correct statement they were going for, no idea why the townsfolk were so skittish giving them the reward but that's people! They’ve been camped out in the ruins they overtook for sometime, literally getting people at their ‘doorstep’ with requests to tackle similar stone turning beasts in surrounding areas, which like of course hell yeah lets go. And so the Basilisk Butchering, Stone Sisters of where-the-fuck-ever made a very specific niche for themselves.
