The Naga-ettes are essentially Gorgons.

Uh, what?

naga

In modern fantasy fiction, members of a race with both snake and human characteristics (usually having only a human head) are often called nagas. This comes from the legendary creatures called nagas in Hindu mythology.

"ette" makes them female. In CT they're human from the torso up and snake downwards.

The Naga are generally a snake/human race.  In WarCraft 3, the Naga are Snake/Elves.

On a semi-related topic, how did Yakra get the Naga-ette Bromide?  And why would it open up some guy's cabinet?

It didn't open something, you exchanged it for the magic tab. And why should't the naga-whatevers have a naga-whatever bromid?

A Naga-ette is basiclly a lamia in looks. So it's a lamia, with a weird name. At least to me, anyways.

Another "Woolseyism". It was translated to be a 'bromide' from some kind of womens underwear, I don't remember exactly what. Yes, the old man is supposed to be a pervert. What's a Toriyama product without a perverted old man? ;)
