Stuff about things! Ok, so I'm gonna start posting answers to questions about my species. I figured it'd be helpful for those with the same questions, but aren't ready to her their ears nibbled on by me.
Q1; what inspired the name 'Poison Drinker'?:
A1: What inspired the name was a short storie titled the 'Poison Eaters'. It was about a group of sisters that were forced to drink and eat poisons by their father and uncle until they were able to be used as lethal weapons. The girls were each given a man to marry and were only allowed to look at pictures of theses until they were forced to kill them. If their bare skin was touched by someone with a bare hand, the person would die instantly. After the girls were forced to kill their lovers, they would kill themselves. All but one sister ended up dying and when it was her turn to kill her lover, she double crossed her uncle and killed him instead.
