Paragon of House Zahir, and admired by those nobles, the Nightslider is traditionally associated with stealth, cunning, and its fabulously potent venom. Thankfully, within Fastheld (save in Zahir lands, where the House considers them protected), the Nightslider is very rare, thriving almost wholly in the Hedgheim moors and a few isolated spots along the Fastheld River. It is far more common in the Wildlands, especially in swampy, marshy areas like the Snake Tangle and along the Jadesnake.
