description: 'The brilliant and powerful lamia matriarchs possess boundless ambition,
always seeking to bring more people and territory into the clutches of their kind.
Consequently, the become rulers of other lamia. For all their cruelty toward other
creatures, they''re fierce protectors of other lamia, and consequently they quickly
come to rule cults or warbands. Regardless of the lamia''s gender, these ascended
lamias are always known as matriarchs. Rather than leonine limbs, a lamia matriarch''s
lower body is formed in the winding coils of a giant snake. They''re also set apart
by the occult power they pursue, and some have even have grand designs to break
the animalistic curse that transformed them. However, every attempt so far has led
to the matriarch''s fall.

This doesn't change their Speed or their attack and damage modifiers with their

has a fixed humanoid form—they cannot adopt a different appearance each time they
use this ability, and the appearance resembles that of their upper torso when
