The Nagaji enclave is the residence of the Nagaji people who were freed by the Council 30 years after the Naga Empire's capital was utterly destroyed and laid waste. Some five thousand Nagaji were freed and allowed to live in the Southeast Quadrant as free men and women of the Nagaji race. The Nagaji still worship the nagas that created them, but they know that their masters' power base was broken.
The Flavor of the Nagaji Enclave[]
The Naga Enclave is much more exotic, probably because of the Nagaji themselves. The Nagaji are a mysterious race of serpent humanoids that were captured as slaves. Now that half of them are freed, most seem to have gravitated to these city blocks.
The Nagaji Enclave is even stranger than the whole of the Aryavartan district. Their temples are bedecked with snakes and iconography of the snakes. And they are built of stone in the fashion of the Aryavartans. When a normal human walks through the enclave, the feelings of otherworldiness and fancy are often felt, as if the humans are visitors and the Nagaji are the residents.
The Enclave itself is very green, filled with all manner of plant life, with canals criscrossing the enclave. The Nagaji like it this way, and they often use the canals as streets rather than the existing streets. The buildings are not sparse, however, but most habitations are simple huts rather than houses in this enclave. Here, the Nagaji are mostly awakened to their Ophiduan consciousness. As being psychically capable, it's hard enough for "normal" humans to feel uneasy around gifted humans, but gifted Nagaji creates even more unease. Still, the race was captured, and half the nagaji are enslaved by their human masters. So, the city watch here often have to watch for actions against citizens to prevent violence between humans and nagaji. Fortunately, most of the city watch here are Nagaji. It makes it somewhat easier if askewed in one direction or not.
