Location The Nurseries

[Traverse]

There are three nurseries in Zinrah, all located equally deep underground in three seperate corners of the city. Each one has a beautifully carved spiraling stone ramp that leads into the warm damp bowels of Zinrah where eggs are laid, kept, and dotingly watched until the snakelings inside hatch and can start being taught. Three seperate nurseries ensure Constrictor survival in case of flooding, disease, animal attack, or Myrian invasion. Eggs can be laid in the nurseries or carried down after being laid in one's home. There have been rare cases of Constrictors insisting on keeping their eggs themselves, but this is frowned upon and largely is a non issue because why care and tend to your own eggs when their are nurses specifically hand picked and trained to the task in the safest parts of the city? A rainbow colored moss is used to mark eggs as a certain families or individual. The nurses have the ability to stop the mosses color changing properties on a specific color, and then let the substance grow over the eggs in a thing layer, providing a layer of further insulation in the sweltering depths where the eggs are kept, and also making it easy for mothers visiting their eggs to identify them. Once eggs have hatched, the resulting snakelings spend the majority of their young lives safe in the nursery. It is dangerous even in the halls of Zinrah for a young Dhani, and so the nurses that oversaw their hatching are the ones to teach them how to shift and everything a growing Dhani needs to know about wide world of Mizahar and Falyndar. Snakelings are equally hard to keep track of who is who as eggs, but the coloring from the rainbow moss upon the eggs dyes the top of each snakelings head and lasts for one year after birth, allowing ample time for mothers and nurses alike to familiarize themselves with a snakeling's scent and to give their children names. Nurses are a treasured position within Zinrah, and are all priestesses before becoming one. Each nursery has a head hand picked by Tanabis herself that oversees everything from hatching to teaching and care for Dhani infants. Unlike most Dhani, nurses tend to inhabit their human form while working down with eggs and snakelings as it easier to manuever and make sure no accidents happen. While eggs from families are equally distributed among each of the three nurseries one mystery does remain, and that is which Nursery would house Tanabis's eggs if she were to have them.   Krestilissa Krestilissa Race: Dhani (Constrictor) DoB: 80th of Spring 285 A.V PoB: Zinrah Position: Nursery 1 Head Skills: Management 50, Wrestling 30, Teaching 70, Medicine 40, Herbalism 50 Gnosis: 3 Venenum Additional Info: Ilissa is a divine beauty, and a watchful caretaker of her Nursery. She believes that every problem can be solved with orginization and meticulous care, and knows enough about herbs and medicine to treat most any illness her precious snakelings might come down with as she raises them. Her words are soft, her voice like silk, but when she is enraged all will feel her wrath, for she is the mother of many, and is determined to see the Dhani rise again.   Sienorassor Sienorassor Race: Dhani (Constrictor) DoB: 33rd of Winter 325 A.V PoB: Zinrah Position: Nursery 2 Head Skills: Management 50, Wrestling 50, Unarmed 40, Intimidation 30, Teaching 40 Gnosis: 3 Venenum Additional Info: Rassor leads Nursery 2 with an iron claw. She is a competitive and haughty Constrictor bent on the fact that the snakelings that hatch from her Nursery be the best that they can be. She despises both or her fellow Nursery heads, and prefers to leave medicine and a kind touch to the other nurses in her care, much more comfortable with teaching her snakelings how to wrestle and overpower each other from the youngest of ages. Despite her cold demeanor, Rassor has been known to exhibit emotions to the snakelings that show the most skill and intelligence to her.   Tilissorynallis Tilissorynallis Race: Dhani (Constrictor) DoB: 2nd of Fall 350 A.V PoB: Zinrah Position: Nursery 3 Head Skills: Biology 30, Mathematics 40, Teaching 50, Wrestling 40, Wilderness Survival 40 Gnosis: 3 Venenum Additional Info: Nallis is the thoughtful one of the 3 Nursery heads. She teaches her snakelings to be cautious, for their survival will be for naught if life isn't approached with care. She knows much about the dangers of the wilds outside of Zinrah, and teaches it well to her students. She is not one for glory and honor, and much more concerned with the Constrictors outright survival than anything, which she questions day to day, though her faith in Siku never wavers.   Additional Info The Nurseries are open to self moderation unless you are planning on doing something that is not with your own eggs or snakelings, then you must first request permission from a moderator.
