The lamia

[liljramos88]

OK so a small question the lamias are considered a beast tribe I know in ff11 they are what are there origins bc in void Ark we see echidna but we do see them in azysla as genetic creatures. So what is there story am am guessing that in sastasha we find the merrows correct

[Rocl]

It's likely that beings like Echidna are actually voidsent, while Lamia / Nagas are "artificial voidsent" created by the Allagans (this is supported by museum displays in the Fractal Continuum for the Naga). The ones in Satasha (Hard) are also probably Allagan creations--escaped from nearby Dalamud debris-- the classification of them as "Drowned" being a case of mistaken identity due to general ignorance of Eorzeans.

And what were doing those Lamias there on Sastasha?
A place full of pirates that got a double dozis of tempered?

Thats the only thing I still i cant understand, also tose lamias said "dont look at me".

It's entirely possible that they were Allagan Creations as Rocl said, and then they were Drowned (Leviathan's version of Tempering). The devs said as much in a previous thread if I remember correctly.

While the naga / lamia in general are considered Voidsent... ah, no. The Drowned Wenches and Drowned Courtesans in Sastasha HM are heavily implied, though not outright stated, to be normal women that were overexposed to Leviathan's aether and mutated like everyone else in Sastasha HM. Remember that Captain Madison used to be a normal Hyur, and then in HM he looks like god-damn Davy Jones?

Yeah...

They just share a model / skeleton. That's all.

they never said that they were allagans creations that got tempered. When did we hear about an allagan creation that got tempered by a primal? xD

I think it's really a case of them sharing the same assets/models just like the bloodhounds in VA vs. Fenrir and Thors in WoD vs Mamool Jaas.

In my opinion, the Drown Wenches are mutated kidnapped females.

However, Lamias as a whole are probably Alagan creation as we've seen many evidence that being the case. In fact, I think there's a FATE in Asyz lla saying that Lamias (at least the breed we fight) was crossed with another beast from a different area which made it very violent

wait, are those kidnapped females? didnt we free them on our first time on sastasha?

Probably not all of them since there were only a handful of drowned wenches vs the rest. Especially since the original Sastasha had so many optional nooks and crannys that many players skipped saving the those kidnapped.

Then again, they could just be the female crew members of Cpt. Morgan?

We need to asume that the players went to all places of the dungeon, not skiping a single place.
Thats what I thought all this time, female crew members.
