Serpent's Embrace Effects
 Serpent's Embrace |
You grew up worshiping the Great Serpent. Grav jumping provides a temporary boost to health and oxygen, but health and oxygen are lowered if you don't continue jumping regularly - like an addiction. (Can't be combined with any other religion trait.) |

Good for Space Exploration
Serpent's Embrace grants a 25 point boost to your health and Oxygen for 4 hours every time you make a Grav Jump. This trait is particularly useful when you do space exploration frequently. The caveat is you need to make Grav Jumps regularly or else you'll suffer from lowered health and Oxygen.
You can also stack this with Terra Firma and Alien DNA to receive a bigger boost to your health and Oxygen.
Fast Travel to Maintain Boost
Fast traveling across systems is also considered as Grav Jumping. This should make it easier to keep the health and Oxygen boost up at all times.
Best Trait for Romancing Andreja
