Character Biography
Rock Python has skin that is rock-hard, much like a rock python snake, and he also uses little eggs which, upon impact, release "snake wrap", metallic coils that wrap up and immobilize his opponents. He first joined the Serpent Society when the villainous Viper invaded, and after she abandoned them, he took a test to prove his worthiness of being in the Society. He also later battled the X-Men's Rogue, Havok, and Colossus with the rest of the Serpent Society, but quickly when he realized his opponents were much more powerful than him. His greatest accomplishment was nearly killing Captain America after he, Anaconda, and Puff Adder were attacked. He dropped him from a rooftop, but was ordered by King Cobra to flee as to not have their base revealed. He continues to serve with the Society.
