Sometimes you just feel like designing the entire Serpentinite subgroup from Phyllosilicates and base them around reptiles.
•Serpentine: The "False Jade", is often the one in command. She's sassy and to the point. She's the default all-terrain serpentine and knows who to send in place.
•Antigorite: Tends to be the second in command if Serpentine is not available. Organizes while struggling to fuse when needed.
•Chrysotile: Or White Asbestos, is the most unstable in comparison to other serpentines and needs to work alone for the safety of other gemkinds! They specialize in underground work when possible.
•Lizardite: Most common of them all, while being relatively rare. She just follows orders and is content with forest terrains.
•Amesite: Largest and stronger of them all. Rarely works in group and will not obey orders coming from others that aren't serpentines. They work on ice deserts!
•Berthierine: Specializes in desert zones, where the terrain allows them to become specially fast. Otherwise, they can become quite slow in groups.
•Brindleyite: The least toxic, being able to be around other gemkinds and manage properties on already colonized stations, being the most common all-terrain.
•Caryopilite: Unlike other serpentines, they can cry acid tears that are specially toxic. They work at meadows, usually starting with any nearby river.
•Cronstedtite: They specialize in mountain terrains, even being able to climb upside down.
•Frainpontite: Being the most on tundras, they can melt the ice with their acid to the facilitate the job to other serpentines.
•Guidottiite: Used in volcanic activities, but she's not inmune to lava. She's the fastest of them all for her own safety.
•Kellyite: They are kept around in case of emergency outburst for specialiced colonies in progress of colonization.
•Népouite: The slowest of them all, because they prioritize in underwater activities and manage to do a job the rest of them all cannot.
•Pecoraite: They focus on swamp-like terrain. Their sense of smell helps them locate where the roots are located.
The Kindergartens serpentines emerged from resulted on being toxic not only to many plants but also to gemkind themselves. These are called "Serpentine barrens".
Serpentines are fast, elastic gems, typically used for hunting and terraforming as their toxic powers makes the job easier. They are able to spit acid and some of them, segregate acid via their own hands. Depending on the kind, their toxic levels will be higher, or lesser.
Some serpentines escort jades in balls, since some serpentines are specially valuable and fancy when not on missions. On missions, they work on groups of 3, or at least most of them, focusing on removing live beings of vegetation.
