Pitviper Bites

Pitviper bites leave distinctive scar tissue that marks Red miners in the depths of the Society's mines, prominently featured in Golden Son as a visible sign of their grueling labor on the neck and exposed skin. This element underscores the physical and social scars borne by the lower colors under the oppressive hierarchy. As the saga progresses, such injuries evolve from mere background details into symbols of resilience and the fight against tyranny, appearing in flashbacks or character descriptions that tie back to the protagonists' origins.
