  Naja - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Naja is a genus of venomous elapid snakes.
Nubian Spitting Cobra, Naja nubiae (Wüster and Broadley, 2003)
Several Naja species, referred to as spitting cobras, have developed a specialized venom delivery mechanism, in which their front fangs, instead of releasing venom through the tips, as a hypodermic needle, have a rifled opening in the front surface, which allows the snake to propel the venom out of the mouth.

Akara Naja was born at the Jurai Imperial Academy (1).
Naja was privy to information on the political situation between Jurai and Seniwa, helping to keep watch on Washu after her marriage to Kuramitsu Mikamo, because of the possible political ramifications.
Seto herself has no inkling of her possible ties to Akara Naja, thinking she is the orphaned daughter of a treasure hunter (tho since no one identified her, this would only be speculation on the part of the people who found her).

Biography: Born into the minor noble house of Del Naja in Almoren, the youngest son of Uleith and Maigen Del Naja, Joerin was not unused to hardships growing up, for his great grandfather had squandered the small fortune the House, reducing it to practical poverty, almost to the level of commoners.
Joerin was not truly affected by this, as he was the youngest son and therefore destined to inherit little as it was.
At the time of the destruction of House Del Naja, Joerin was in the middle of amassing his own small fortune, and did not receive the messages sent by his family until it was too late.

 Indian or Common Cobra (Naja naja naja)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
This person has received a bite and probable envenomation from an Indian or Common Cobra (Naja naja naja).
The degree of local necrosis appears to be less with Indian Cobra (Naja naja naja) envenomation than with other Naja naja subspecies.
Prompt delivery of antivenom following the bite may lessen the extent of local tissue damage, although some evidence suggests that certain antivenoms have less efficacy in ameliorating or protecting against the local action of certain cobra venoms.

The ringhals and certain African species of Naja are the most effective spitters, but the spitting behavior also is observed among some Asian Naja species.

 Cape Cobra (Naja nivea)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
This person has received a bite and probable envenomation from a Cape Cobra (Naja nivea).
Clinical experience with Naja nivea has demonstrated that respiratory paralysis can be rapid in onset, and difficult to reverse once established even with large amounts of antivenom.
Since both Prostigmine and antivenom fail to reverse fully established paralysis, it is suggested that the toxin becomes fixed presumably to a presynaptic target, is unavailable to bind with the antivenom, and that reversal occurs only after metabolic degradation has taken place.
