    What do you expect? In real life an animal that becomes locally renowned like this tends to be simply larger in size and/or more ferocious. It doesn't suddenly ignore the entirety of it's genetics and change it's appearance drastically. It doesn't make much sense.

    We're not allowed to compare real life - Whenever some does the community usually immediately dismiss it. Also it didn't stop SE from doing it in XI with certain systems. For example:



    Looks different from the typical Lamia:



    Even if it's just the color style and markings - So yes, SE could have made them look more unique. It's perfectly ok not to accept everything Yoshi throws at us lol.

    Yes, but the Experimental Lamia you're refering to was man made and altered, therefor diffirent. they really tend to stay close to their own lore and dont do (a lot) of things that would be impossible in their fantasy world.
