Mick-Ru T. Riot

Named after the snake they are. A Micrurus Tener or the Texas Coral Snake, full name being Mick-ru Tanner Riot. They both share the same name, often causing confusion when speaking to one over the other.

They're siamese twin snakes and has two heads with differing personalities. One hyperactive and jolly while the other is Stoic and depressed 24/7. They use their venom to induce hallucinations. They love to bite whether in a playful or defensive way which often doesnt end well for others.

They own an apothecary and work day by day selling antivenom to doctors for a rather high profit. They have a rather nasty demeanor though and will cuss or flip off customers that he doesnt get along with. They know how to milk their fangs and WILL offer venom to people who want an extreme high. Sadly this most time leads to death.

Pliocercus euryzonus Pliocercus euryzonus es una serpiente que pertenece a la familia Colubridae y se diferencia a los demás individuos del genero por tener anillos bicolor (negros y pálidos, generalmente blanco y algunas veces rojo o amarillo ) mientras sus congéneres poseen un complejo tricolor. El patrón bicolor generalmente imita una variación de color similar a el de la serpiente coral verdadera Micrurus mipartitus.

You know that rhyme that teaches how to distinguish between coral snakes and their nonvenomous mimics? “Red touches black, friend of Jack, red touches yellow, kill a fellow”? Cool story, but in Texas a melanistic form of the eastern coral snake (Micrurus tener) exists, and it has little to no red coloring. A friend of mine came across this guy at McKinney Falls State Park and sent my this picture to ID. Apparently it was rather large for the species as well. A good reminder that while mnemonic devices are all well and good, there’s no substitute for certainty.

Micrurus tener (Elapidae), the Texas coral snake, is a distinctive species by its color pattern:

A series of black, yellow, and red bands that completely encircle the body, with the red bands only touching adjacent yellow bands. 

Anterior portion of the head is black and the red bands of the body are not entirely red, with specks of black pigment found within each red band. 

No red bands found on the head or on the tail, these areas only have yellow and black bands [source].

This species is found in the US (Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas), and in many of the northeastern states of Mexico.

The coral snake has the most potent toxin in the United States. Although they are usually a docile snake, they can and will bite if abused. Contrary to popular belief, Coral snakes do not have to “chew” their intended victim to inject venom. They are in the same family of snakes as the cobras, sea snakes and mamba’s.
