I've seen it twice name, same girl to, both times while looking for pc races for pathfinder, or at least images of pc races.

Looks like a lamia or some close kin. Lamias are definitely not playable races without GM permission.

She is a lamia.

Only if you GM is allowing you to play monster races.

that was a typo, thank you for catching it.

It's a lamia. You can take the form of one with the monstrous physique spells, or as a metamorph alchemist. You normally can play one though, unless your gm allows you to play monsters.


More specifically, that's a lamia harridan. (And the picture in question is a specific harridan from the Spires of Xin-Shalast.)

And yeah, you aren't going to be playing one.

You could design something visually similar with the ARG, though. You'll want to work that out with your GM.

I'd love to do something like this, but they don't seem to have rules for tauric creatures, either quadruped or snake body races.

As I said, you can't play one normally, but you can be in the form of one 24/7 with a metamorph alchemist at 9th level.

One of the racial traits in the Race Creation section is Quadruped. It's used for making tauric creatures.

The OP could always try to make a Eidolon with the summoner class.
