'''Mahasarpa''' is a miniature campaign setting for [[Dungeons & Dragons]] 3rd edition. Released as a tie-in Web Enhancement for [[Oriental Adventures]] 3e, it is an Oriental Fantasy setting using India and the Hindu regions of
Southeast Asia as its basis instead of the more traditional Japanese/Chinese/Korean chop-suey.

==Culture==
Mahasarpa is an Indian-style caste system, divided into 5 varnas (castes) of descending importance:
* ''Brahmins'' are the highest caste, representing the shamans who communicate with the devas and devatas. However, they are held by law and religion to ''only'' exert influence through their theological power.
* ''Kshatriyas'' are technically inferior to the Brahmins, but as the caste representing the nobles, hold exclusive dominion over all secular power. This keeps them in a balancing act with the Brahmins.
* ''Vaishyas'' are the merchant caste.
* ''Shudras'' are the peasant caste.
* ''Untouchables'' are outside of the varnas entirely, making them figures to be shunned as unholy and unclean by all members of the varnas.

==Races==
Humans of Mahasarpa come from one of the seven kingdoms, and use the rules for Rokugani humans where appropriate.

Mahasarpa is also home [[Hengeyokai]] of the Monkey and Mongoose (reflavored Weasel) breeds, river and sea [[Spirit Folk]], [[Vanara]]s, and a new race, the Rishi, who are analogous to [[Aasimar]].

Rishi are benevolent [[planetouched]] descended from deva or devata. They have the following racial stats:
::+2 Wisdom, +2 Charisma
::Medium
::Native Outsider
::Base speed 30 feet
::Darkvision 60 feet
::Resistance 5 to Acid, Cold, and Electrricity
::Spell-Like Ability: ''Light'' 1/day as if a [[Sorcerer]] of the character's level
::+2 racial bonus on Listen and Spot checks
::[[Favored Class]]: Kshatriya - treat as [[Samurai]], but using tulwars (scimitars) and kris (daggers) instead of katanas as their daisho
::[[Level Adjustment]]: +1
