Serpents?
Aah, but I've worked a way around that. Remember, all this detail is Eighth story, not gameplay stuff.
Basically, serpent skin is used as less imaginative fantasy worlds would use dragonhide. It's a really tough leather that's a bugger to work with, and forget sewing unless you have a whole load of guys with a mallet driving the thread through. Very few people wear it, mostly rich armies, because, come on, you have to kill a bunch of serpents, and then drag the whole thing back up a mile or more of stairs, and then start making them. Most smitemasters don't worry about a 'keep serpent corpses' clause, anyways, because while kingy is happy to let the smitemasters take the roaches, they'll usually "
commandeer"
the serpent skin. And kingy ain't going to get it himself, now, is he?
When you drive them into a wall, they'll squish up and peel, driving their skin off their body until they're nude and flat. They're pretty much dead, as not having any skin is a big handicap in today's world.
Remember, from a story point of view every time you kill a roach its corpse is still there. From a game point of view, it's not. There will be differences, but that's because, even in a fake world, fun >
realism.
And back on topic, the twins would look like separate creatures, just different colours. Not half of one creature.
Matt
