Nagaji Heritages
Source Core Rulebook pg. 33 4.0
You select a heritage at 1st level to reflect abilities passed down to you from your ancestors or common among those of your ancestry in the environment where you were born or grew up. You have only one heritage and can’t change it later. A heritage is not the same as a culture or ethnicity, though some cultures or ethnicities might have more or fewer members from a particular heritage.

unarmed attack with a
range increment of 10 feet that deals 1d4 poison damage. On a critical hit, the target takes
persistent poison damage equal to the number of weapon damage dice. Your spit doesn't have a weapon group or a critical specialization effect.
Source Impossible Lands pg. 48You stand out from most nagaji, with the upper body of a beautiful human and the lower body of a green or white snake. Legends claim your ancestors were faithful snakes uplifted by

brawling weapon group, and has the
finesse and
unarmed traits. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus on your Fortitude or Reflex DC against attempts to
Grapple or
Trip you. This bonus also applies to saving throws against effects that would
grab you,
restrain you, or knock you
prone.

comfort trait. You can never wear other armor or remove your scales. You can etch armor runes onto your scales.
Source Impossible Lands pg. 48Your intrinsic connection to nagas and mundane serpents grants you an innate resistance to toxins of every sort. You gain resistance to poison equal to half your level (minimum 1 resistance), and you gain a +1 circumstance bonus to all saving throws against
poison.
Source Impossible Lands pg. 48You have a long, flexible neck that can curl into a striking pose like that of a snake. Your deceptively powerful muscles allow you to bite with surprising distance and speed. You gain the Raise Neck action.
Source Impossible Lands pg. 48
You raise your head into a striking position. The fangs Strike granted by your nagaji ancestry gains a
reach of 10 feet until the end of your turn.
Versatile Heritages
Source Advanced Player's Guide pg. 28 2.0The peoples of Golarion are many, and they have a long history of intermingling. The inevitable offspring of these mixed unions share physiological features with both their parents, manifesting as a specific heritage. The most common of these by far are the half-elf and half-orc human ancestries. Some individuals, however, are born under far stranger circumstances, such as a monstrous, undead, or extraplanar parent, a powerful curse, or an incursion of extraplanar energies. As these circumstances aren't unique to a single ancestry, these heritages—called versatile heritages—are likewise shared by many ancestries.
