Lore

The defining characteristic of a member of the wavekin is its uncanny ability to breathe while under water, be it for limited duration, such as is the case with amphibious toads and efts, or for the entirety of its lifespan, such as is the case with most fish and cephalopods. While most wavekin are extremely timid creatures, the following is a selection of those which exhibit little fear towards man, and will oft turn the aggressor should they feel threatened.

The defining characteristic of a member of the wavekin is its uncanny ability to breathe while underwater, be it for limited duration, such as is the case with amphibious toads and efts, or for the entirety of its lifespan, as is the case with most fish and cephalopods. Creatures in this class can also be extremely selective when it comes to the type of water they choose for their habitat—some preferring fresh streams, some salt-rich seas, while still others the brackish whorls where the twain meet.

This class includes denizens of seas, rivers, lakes, and marshes—all of which can be found in abundance in both the First and the Source. Of a kindred encompassing fish, shellfish, amphibians, and more, wavekin are as multifaceted as they are numerous. Some dart through the water like arrows, others crawl ponderously across the ocean floor, and yet others float with the aid of gas-filled sacs.
