Merge Serpent people into this article
editThis just seems the obvious thing to do... --Ant 10:22, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
- I've got to agree. One needs to be merged with the other because it's really just a waste of links and space.
Merge Serpent-Men (comics) into this article
editDoes the Marvel version of the same race really need its own page? There's a bit of difference in their origins, but that's just different continuities for you. Daibhid C (talk) 14:35, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Kull meeting the serpent men probably did abandon his wow of annihilation.
editIn "Delcardes cat" king Kull meets and befriends a community of appaerently serpent men living under a lake, like the Nagas, wise and often good serpentbeings from indian mythology, arguably the source of inspiration for the serpent men. There he meets their version of the conflict between serpent men and "true men". A version where "true men" are a bunch of kill-crazy imperialists impossible to live with. In "The shadow kingdom" Brule admits that it was "true men" who were the aggressors, the elder races only defending themselves. Probably Kull did abandon his wow about a final solution of the serpent man question after this. Clearly the land that became Stygia was the last stronghold of the serpent men long after Kull. It was the white-skinned human conquerors from the east(perhaps ultimately from Mu in the eastern ocen) that destroyred the sepent men. Probably the bulk of the commoners of Stygia are scions of the human slaves or slave-races of the serpent men. Arguably the exchange of a non-human masterrace for an in-human one was nothing for these people to be happy or grateful about. The conquerors however slyly understood to play on this,turning it to their own advantage. Hence the cult of state of the construed godhead Set, probably inspired by the Serapis-cult, the political religion of state in ptolemaic,hellenistic, Egypt; basically a blending together of greek Hades(Styx!) and egyptian Osiris. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.198.216.242 (talk) 09:36, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
