A snake woman. I find it interesting that almost every major ancient civilization had their own female half-serpent myth, usually in the form of a deity or royal figure (Echidna and Delphyne, Nagi, Lamia, Nuwa, Wadjet, White Snake, Moura...).
Nuwa was especially badarse; she is credited in Chinese folklore as one of the original Three Sovereign rulers, and her accomplishments include creating humans, single-handedly repairing the Wall of Heaven, and orchestrating the downfall of the Shang Dynasty because she thought King Zhou was a sleazebag.

I don't know if I would trust someone who can bend their arms like that...
