how does one turn a 10 foot huge grass snake into an original creature?? turn it into a 12 foot, almost 200lbs burmese python. that's how.

These colors are not realistic to the actual snake, but the character is a quartz form from Sapphy's book Voices of Legend (the original version!). The yellow triangles and the middle tone green are actually quartz scales called animite! You can read more on it from here:
