Homebrew Yuan-ti Goblinoid Species Details

When the Yuan-ti annexed the Great Untamed region into their Eobsh Empire, scores of goblin tribes were brought under the yoke of slavery. As with most slave owners, some Yuan-ti master would take slaves as lovers, and the offspring that survived proved to be of a heartier stock than the original goblin progenitors. Soon those higher in the Empire would take their stock of goblin slaves and perform the ritual to transform them into Yuan-it. When the Eobsh Empire fell, most Yuan-ti and their Yuan-it goblinoids were destroyed, but many of these hybrid slaves escaped into the secret catacombs under the cities and the mountain passes deep within the Therth Mountains.
