Snake School is Back in Snession!
Here’s the new and improved Orochi High snaracter lineup! A few things have changed (They’re sneniors! O-Hi is in Snokyo now! There’s a new guy!), but for the most part, they’re the same old snaracters you fell in love(?) with seven years ago. Enjoy, and keep those snoots astute. The best is yet to come!
Updated snaracter descriptions below:
Truffle AmaguchiSpecies: Ball Python (Silver Bullet Morph) Length: 0.7 meters Age: 18
Truffle Amaguchi is an ordinary girl starting her final year at Orochi High. She was born in Osnaka and moved with her mom and little brother to Snokyo two years ago. Truffle is a romantic with very little real-life experience. She enjoys reading shoujo snanga, and has somewhat unrealistic expectations as a result. Her hobbies are reading, collecting bones and natural hisstory items, and going to the museum. Truffle does well in school, but has been struggling recently, putting her university hopes in jeopardy.
Truffle’s favorite snekcessory is a cute red bow with a mouse skull in the middle. She has a tiny kink on the tip of her tail.
Mochi Shinda Species: Western Hognose (Wild Type) Length: 0.5 meters Age: 17
Mochi Shinda is a short Western hognose who was Truffle’s first friend at Orochi High. A mischievous prankster, she comes off as a bit insensitive but cares more than she lets on. She has been known to play dead to get out of unpleasant situations (like gym class). Mochi enjoys cooking for her five younger sniblings and inventing new dessert recipes.
Mochi always wears a cool spiked taillet.
Marzipan OnoSpecies: Burmese Python (Hypomelanistic Morph) Length: 4.5 meters Age: 18
Marzipan Ono is a big girl with big headboobs and an even bigger heart. Soft-spoken and shy, she does her best to stay out of the way but inadvertently causes accidents and injuries because of her size. Marzipan loves animals and has a pet bunny named Minchi. She volunteers at the local zoo. Her favorite animal to work with is Meg the giant ground sloth, who is currently pregnant and expecting a calf soon!
She wears a tiny pink bow on her tail at all times.
Atheris HispidaSpecies: Hairy Bush Viper (Wild Type) Length: 1 meter Age: 18
The mysterious, venomous Atheris Hispida has always counted on his “tough guy” status to keep sneople at tail’s length, but when Truffle stumbles (literally) upon his deepest secret, he fears his reputation is at stake!
He wears his tie loose because he thinks it makes him look cool (it does).
Nise Ashinashi Species: “Kingsnake” Length: 2 meters Age: 19
Not much is known about secretive new transfer snudent Nise Ashinashi. He moved to Snokyo from Nagasnaki and he comes from a wealthy kingsnake family, but that’s about it. Nise keeps his cards close to his… neck? Or is he more tail? He has a distrust bordering on prejudice towards venomous species, though he is warming up to Yakamashii.
Whatever you do, don’t steal his beanie, no matter how tempting it is. Ever.
Yakamashii Ogoe Species: Western Diamondback Rattlesnake (Wild Type) Length: 1.2 meters Age: 18
Loud, outgoing, and sometimes annoying, Yakamashii Ogoe is nevertheless Atheris’s closest friend. They grew up together in the same neighborhood and bonded over shared experiences (and tastes in video games). Despite carrying a nasty hemotoxin in his fangs, Yakamashii is mostly harmless. He excels at sports and hopes to become captain of Orochi High’s successful Koudo ( 絞道 - ”Way of the Wrap”) team his final year.
The O-Hi tail band he wears shows off his school spirit!
Monoko MoriSpecies: Monocled Cobra (Albino Morph) Length: 1.5 meters Age: 19
Regarded as the most beautiful girl at Orochi High, Monoko Mori has many admirers. Despite being confessed to on an almost daily basis, she has turned down every single suitor so far. Though she is not unkind, her quiet demeanor and disinterest in dating have earned her the reputation of being cold. Her striking albino coloration, while attractive to many, makes her sensitive to light and susceptible to sunburn, so she is often forced to limit outdoor activities.
Her hood piercing stands in stark rebellion against her otherwise pristine appearance.
Hachi Mitsu Species: Ball Python (Spider Morph) Length: 0.8 meters Age: 18
Unlike the majority of his peers, Hachi Mitsu seems to have it together. He knows what he wants to be when he grows up (video game designer), and he knows what he’s got to do to do it (get good grades and make it into the prestigious Snokyo Institute of Technology). He and Marzipan become fast friends after he offers to tutor her in snath. He has a neurological condition called “the wobble,” which he inherited from his dad’s side of the family. He’s pretty good with a power chair, though–just watch your tail!
Hatchi has contacts, but prefers to wear glasses at school because he thinks they make him look smart.
Jun AokiSpecies: Emerald Tree Boa Length: 1.2 meters Age: 18
Jun is a striking emerald tree boa that lives with their grandmother in an apartment building near the coast. At school, they usually keep to themselves, doodling in the margins of their homework or painting elaborate landscapes in Creative Club after class. Most snudents consider them unusual and intimidating, but few have taken the time to really get to know them.
They enjoy collecting shells with their grandma and keep their favorite, a beautiful textile cone, on a cord around their neck.
For reference, here is the old lineup.
I hope you like the new designs (and Jun!). Make sure to follow the @orochihigh blog for more Snake School content!
