Xia Anomalous Culture Group

The Xia Anomalous Culture Group was an ancient culture group that lived during the Xia Dynasty of ancient China in 2100-1600 BC. They practiced a dualistic religion between Fuxi and Nuwa, and working under the Yellow Emperor, acting under the belief Fuxi, the Brass Dragon, transformed into a cage to imprison Nuwa, and that Nuwa was never to be freed. Practicing the 'Way of the Serpent', they took serpentine or draconian forms at age 12, and possessed anachronistic technology like computation, artificial intelligence, and reality-warping devices, making it the first documented anomalous civilization on Earth. They soon met their end after a conflict with the Children of the Torch.
==History==
According to extended historical logs from SCP-2481-3, after defeating Chiyou and the Yan Emperor, Chiyou sacrificed his body to Fuxi while the Yan Emperor gained immortality and carnomancy praying to Nuwa. The Yellow Emperor saw this and commented: "Fuxi is our father, and Nuwa is our mother. But they have trapped each other in Taisui for over ten thousand years now. Sacrificing in vain, each fighting for their own master/lord, but for what? The ways they taught are still preserved, why not study those instead? So we can understand the Way of the Serpent and modify ourselves into the shape of the Dragon." He once again defeated Chiyou, using lightning and fire as metals were useless, turning them to the molten iron of Shu. Then he defeated the Yan Emperor and his guardian Xingtian, burning Xingtian and burying him in the mountain of Changyang.
Later, during the reign of the Xia Dynasty’s first leader, Yu the Great, it was discovered that due to Fuxi’s cage cracking, pieces of Nuwa escaped and created monsters like Xiangliu which terrorized China. In response, Yu built the Towers of Yu and three giant cosmic ships to sail to Taisui and seal the crack. Yu’s successor, King Qi, built a gateway leading to Taisui.
==Alternate realities==
==Organization==
People in the Xia Anomalous Culture Group receive their ritual of transformation at age 12, taking the appearance of Fuxi and Nuwa. The exact form depends on the person and their role in society. Farmers acquire scales, craftsmen acquire serpent heads, scholars/officials possess body of serpents, while lords look like dragons. Only merchants, servants/slaves and savages do not go through the ritual. Those who contributed greatly could perfect the Transformation ritual, joining the ranks of scholars or even lords.
