Plane Shift - Amonkhet

Naga

Naga resemble enormous snakes with shoulders, arms, and a torso that resembles a humanoid form. They typically hold their heads and torsos off the ground while moving, but they can increase their speed by lowering their bodies and using their hands for extra propulsion. They adorn their torsos with armor, jewelry, and a vague nod toward the clothing worn by other races. Male naga have broad hoods, wider than their shoulders, while females have narrower hoods and longer faces.

ability score increase: +2 Constitution, +1 Intelligence
age: Like humans, naga reach adulthood in their late teens. They show no signs of aging beyond that point except for growing larger, so in theory, a naga could live well over a century.
alignment: Most naga are either neutral or neutral evil in alignment.
Size: Medium
speed: 30 feet
Languages: Common, Naga.
race features:

Speed burst: By lowering their body to the ground and propelling themselves with their arms, Naga can move more quickly for a time. As a bonus action on their turn, if they have both hands free, they can increase their walking speed by 5 feet until the end of their turn.

Natural weapons: Naga's fanged maw and constricting serpentine body are natural weapons, which they can use to make unarmed strikes. If they hit with their bite, they deal piercing damage equal to 1d4 + Strength modifier, and their target must make a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + proficiency bonus + Constitution modifier). On a failed save, the target takes 1d4 poison damage. If they hit with their constrict attack, they deal bludgeoning damage equal to 1d6 + Strength modifier, and the target is grappled (escape DC 8 + proficiency bonus + Strength modifier). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, and they can’t constrict another target.

Poison immunity: Naga are immune to poison damage and can’t be poisoned.

Poison affinity: Naga gain proficiency with the poisoner’s kit.
