Naga (fantasy)

In modern fantasy fiction, members of a race with both snake and human characteristics are often called nagas. This comes from the legendary creatures called nagas in Hindu mythology.

In the game Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, Nagas are Night Elves that were driven underwater and eventually mutated into snake-like creatures. They reside in their city Nazjatar. Naga also appear in Final Fantasy IX, Legend of the Five Rings, Forgotten Realms of Dungeons and Dragons, and many other products. A game called Sansara Naga was made for the Game Boy Advance. Deis, also called Bleu, a character from the Breath of Fire series of video role-playing games, is a naga.
