The Serpents of Igani, also known as the Serpents, is an all-female part of the Igani government. Breaking with current cultural conventions, the Serpents only allow members who are biologically female.

The Serpents of Igani can roughly be broken down into two distinct groups: the Serpent Guard and the diplomatic corps. Although both of these groups could exist without the other, they are two halves of a whole and as such share a common command structure and social tradition.

Although the Ha-mazan's are the common soldiers within the Serpents of Igani they should not be mistaken for normal soldiers. The Serpent Guards rigorous training regime and discipline makes them a foe to be reckoned with. Each and every member of the Serpent Guard is capable of filling nearly all roles within the traditional military, ranging from light infantry to heavy cavalry, skirmisher or mounted archer.

Due to the culture and tradition of the South the diplomatic envoys of the serpents are under considered less threatening at the courts they visit. Because a diplomatic envoy from the Serpents of Igani is a woman she can not only get close to those in power without being under constant suspicion, she can also gain access to, and therefore influence, the wives of those in power.
