Triton

Guardians of the deep ocean — aquatic humanoids who have spent millennia holding the line against horrors that surface-dwellers don’t even know exist. Tritons carry themselves with the quiet pride of a people who have done important, thankless work for a very long time. When they emerge to the surface world, they often find it chaotic, ungrateful, and profoundly unserious.

Appearance

Humanoid with aquatic features — scaled skin in blues, greens, and silvers; fin-like ears; webbed hands and feet; eyes that are large and adapted to low-light water. Some bear small dorsal ridges or fin-crests. They tend toward lean, athletic builds suited to swimming. Surface-appropriate clothing always looks slightly wrong on them.


Found In

Coastal regions and deep ocean territories. Found near the Admiralty of Sjóskjaldheim and the deep coasts of the Jewel Coast. Triton communities rarely venture far inland.
