Progeny of Yig

The Progeny of Yig, a.k.a. Spawn of Yig, are half-human, half-snake hybrid creatures that result from the curse of the snake-god Yig: either the humans turned into snakes for offending Yig, or else the offspring of such humans.
The child of Audrey Davis is the one such creature seen in "The Curse of Yig". Davis actually gave birth to four hydrid children, but only one survived into adulthood. Thirty-five years later, the doctor who cared for Davis' daughter claimed that she "doesn't seem to age", and believed that she would outlive all of her caretakers. This suggests that the Progeny of Yig might be very long-lived, even if some individuals die young.
==Description==
The Progeny of Yig are humans who, as a result of a curse invoked by disturbing a Child of Yig, begin to develop snake-like features. They then lay eggs that birth hairless humans with beady black eyes.
